no. you inherited a debt. you've racked it up exponentially under Obama. Don't worry though, he thinks you're still a AAA rated economy!

Dear Republicunt Assholes,

What can I say? Barack likes to spend. It's what happens when you only get to choose between the lesser of two evils at the polls.

Obama is the commander in chief, he could of gotten us out of those wars in a matter of months. Instead military spending has increased under him. Object to the Wall Street bailout? Well it wasn't George Bush who bailed out GM, the shittiest company in America. It's like inheriting a half drowned baby and deciding the best course of action is to keep holding his head under water. Face it, Obama has been terrible about deficits, and continues to be terrible.

It's what happens when you only get to choose between the lesser of two evils at the polls. No, if there is any problem with Obama's spending, it wasn't enough. The republicans are sabotaging the way a recovery works. You create stability THEN you cut. You don't kick people while they are already down. And do you really think the top 1 percent cant afford a tax hike? And that auto bailout WORKED and because of that spending 1 million people kept their jobs. When you provide a tax cut, that money has to be compensated somehow. Tax cuts for the uber rich have killed our economy. You look at the years between 46 and 1980 the top paid a much higher tax rate, there was much more government investment, and we had cheaper education and higher individual economic stability. And you really want to talk about spending? How about two wars that went nowhere? And if you think no one got rich of that you are an idiot. Cheney and his Haliburton minions made a mint and so did most of the military weapon manufacturing sector. Maybe if we had spend that at home instead of wasting it on mythical WMDs, we wouldn't be in this mess. I am tired of the bullshit at the top that it is "supply and demand", no, corporate America and the right wing minions they own on capital hill sell the commie fear crap to pull even the left to the right. All they have done is either shipped jobs overseas or gut jobs to make more money merely to hid overseas. We have an extraction slash and burn economy. We have given the republican party everything it has wanted over the past 30 years and all it as gotten us was lower wages and bubble after bubble. IF Obama's spending is not working as well as planned it is because of corporate America and right wing obstructionists. Obama is NOT the lesser of the two evils. He is trying his best but there are fucking greedy ass people who don't give one fuck about the middle class or working poor. How about corporate America investing in us? How about they care about us instead of selling the same old fear mongering bullshit. Nick Hanour A BILLIONAIRE says more money in the workers pocket creates more demand, more demand creates more jobs because demand is the only thing that will force a business owner to hire more people. We tried it the republican way for far too long and all we have gotten from it is screwed. RE: Dear Republicunt Assholes,

I was jocking. I amfully aware that only greeece received money from the IMF, EZB and other european nations. And I am aware that Greece is the only country in which the responsibility for their situation lies almoust entirely by them. Aswell as I am aware that funds given to your country are used for investments which will never bring your country back on track. "If there is one chicken i would like to pluck" (german saying) it would be greece and how they still dont even seem to get the gravity of their own fucked up situation. I personaly hope that your country aswell as Spain, Ireland and Italy - who are under the "Rettungsschirm" and who show the willingness to get out of this mess will receive a debt cut, to get them back on track. The union will continue! (I hope) I am sorry if I have offended you, with my previous comment. |
