Your thinking is flawed. What has happened in the past DOES have a
bearing on today. We're still spending money in Iraq, for instance.

Until recently we were paying a tax on our telephone whose original

he's implementing good economics that the republicans themselves tried
to get started last year. you don't know much about economics, do

What "good ecomonics" is Obama implementing?

You do understand that the government does not create wealth. Ask the
