Our government is absent, on the loss of American jobs.

Both parties.

Nobody is doing one single thing about it, while America becomes ever weaker.

Government, do something. Hopefully GOP take the lead, because America is rapidly crumbling.

America needs a bunch more jobs. Which mostly all went to China. A massive, ever-stronger Communist giant.

Bring back American jobs.

Government, do something

Therein lies the problem.. GOVERNMENT>

We need LESS Government and much LOWER TAXES and jobs and the free enterprise system will restore it self over time.

Currently, Government is so busy TRYING to legislate prosperity they are completely choking off what could be.

You can't save the village by destroying the village. We desperately need LESS GOVERNMENT and LESS GOVERNMENT SPENDING.

[Vaduz]

Bring back American jobs.
Lower taxes from 35% to 15% it could happen.

The entitlement army, if not a true majority, is a majority of the voting public. 2012 was testimony to that. I don’t see this changing until markets actually implode.

[Right Wing Assault]

The typical husband and wife who reach age 66 and qualify for Social Security -- Starting next year, this typical couple, receiving the average benefit, will begin collecting a combination of cash and health-care entitlement benefits that will total $1 million over their remaining expected lifetime.

A lot of younger people resent that and I would, too. Mrs. RWA and I are moving into that age range and we are NOT happy with the $1+ million we will get (yeah, right) from the "gummint" (younger people). Had we been able to put that into private accounts, we would have a much larger amount to draw from. And our children and grandchildren wouldn't have to pay for part of OUR retirement through their taxes and the nursing home when our funds run out. Unless obama's offspring manage to kill us off earlier.

A Brilliant Prophecy From 93 Years Ago
H. L. Mencken (born 1880 - died 1956) was a journalist, satirist, critic, and Democrat . He wrote this editorial while working for the Baltimore Evening Sun, which appeared in the July 26, 1920 edition.

“As democracy is perfected, the office of the President represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last and the White House will be occupied by a downright fool and complete narcissistic moron.”

So it was written and so it has come to pass.

#9 says it all:

Wyatt Emerich of The Cleveland Current analyzes disposable income and economic benefits among several key income classes and comes to the stunning (and verifiable) conclusion that "a one-parent family of three making $14,500 a year (minimum wage) has more disposable income than a family making $60,000 a year.

The fed must be quaking in their boots. Wonder when it starts?

[PeterPrinciple]

Yeah! About the same as the sun rising in the west. As long as this concept of Federal Revenue Sharing , Federal Grants, ect.,exist it will never happen.

"But I don't think it's principally a financial issue - it's a spiritual and moral one."

Very much agreed on that.

"In our lifetime the USSR went kaput."

Agreed on that, too.

But the state and local governments are also saturated with socialist corruption and are taking enormous amounts of funding from the federal government. Give them more sway, and they'll take even more while no longer bothering to cover movement toward slavery with propaganda.

The economic, anti-freedom and anti-competition problems come from decades of un-American elements climbing into business, political and academic leadership. The country is beginning to look more like the recent, former homelands of the newer families in leadership positions (corrupt and evil).

The most influential constituents (including lobby organizations of state and local governments) choose candidates in political parties and sponsor the media. Makes more people trend toward nonpolitical or even anti-political positions (re. fall of the Soviet Union).

I don't cause consequences of the errors of large numbers of people to happen. I only write some of the lesser known news. Have fun. Enjoy the slide. That is, prepare to take care of yourselves and loved ones.

Liberalism, unfortunately, cannot survive without conservatives to leech off of.

[Kozak]

I guess we can declare Victory in the War On Poverty....

Thank you for contacting me about the purchase of Russian helicopters for use by the Afghan military.

As you may know, the U.S. Department of Defense plans to buy 21 Mi-17 helicopters for the Afghan National Security Forces from the Russian company Rosoboronexport by 2016. Some members of Congress have opposed this sale due to the support that Russia has provided to President Bashar al-Assad’s regime in Syria. I understand these objections, and I condemn the Assad regime’s continued massacring of its people.

However, the fact remains that the United States has already entered into a contract with Rosoboronexport, which the Pentagon has determined is the only viable source for the helicopters needed by the Afghan military. Failure to provide the Afghans with the appropriate infrastructure may hinder efforts to make the Afghan forces responsible for their own security. The situation in Syria remains fluid, and I will be sure to keep your comments in mind in the days and weeks ahead.

Thank you again for taking the time to contact me. Please do not hesitate to do so again in the future. I also encourage you to visit my website: flake.senate.gov.
