Default economist blames wall street for collapse

Funny, my kid is out on her own, owns a million dollar home and has her
own business. Made us grandparents too.

I remember when she was in school. She would get 90s across the board.
Here friend was failing, 50's at best. She always was on my case
about being so liberatarian-conservative and had no heart.

So I sat down and explained socialism. You should give your friend 20%
of your marks so you both have 70%. She honked and said no way I work
hard while she slacks off. But I said you have to as it is the
liberla/socialist way, but it gets worse. Because she has 70% she tries
less and again sinks to 50%, then you need to give here another 10% to
pass. She got in a real huff, and left the room.

About 5 days later at the dinner table she blurted, I am not a NDP or
Liberal (Canadian version of a leftist democriter). I smiled.

After graduation she moved, started her own business and met a nice guy.
Bought a house. Even has a second bun in the oven and she is only 32.
Hired her friend for awhile too, but said she couldn't trust the
liberal-thief. I smiled again.

She makes us proud.

It should take you about an hour a week to manage investments. If your
financial security is not as important as watching Survivor on TV, you
are cheating your family.


Funny, Survivor. What a bunch of beach bum losers. Can't seem to wait
to cut each others throughts like Somalians.

Sort of like a program we get here called Til Debt Do Us Part.

http://www.slice.ca/shows/showspage.aspx?title_id=93097

The show is a hoot to see the denial, the loser mentality, the short
sightedness and whaco debtor mentality. Repo man is good too, losers
taking care of losers. Have to love the humor in it.

All for the worship of cheap easy debt. People should have to get
liceses to get debt, 40 hours of personal debt and finance management
before they can borrow.

THE MIDDLE CLASS HAS NOT HAD A REAL INCREASE IN WAGES IN A DECADE...


So? What did they do to improve themselves if they are in that
situation? Jacking crap? Poodle pumping?


i love it. he's so friggin' stupid he doesnt realize the following:

1. productivity in the last 10 years increased by about 30%
2. NONE of this went in the form of increased wages to the middle
class
3. the richest 1% had a 300% increase in income in the last 10 years
4. the financial sector, before 2007, accounted for 40% of GDP. they
contributed NOTHING to the economy with the CDO's, etc. no jobs. no
manufacturing. nothing. but they paid themselves billions

and, of course, this is the fault of 100M hard working americans

is any more proof needed that the right HATES teh middle class?

Since 1950 the unions have succeded in two areas, corruption and killing
jobs.


and how did wall street do in the last 3 years? number of jobs
created? none.

pay increases to the middle class? none

unemployment? 8,000,000 jobs lost

thanks wall street!


About 90,000,000 jobs. And think, the taxpayer didn't pay for any of them.


and unemployment would have been worse except for the bailout and the
TARP that you hate.


More like 20,000,000 but who is counting.

How many jobs did GM bailout create? Zero. They were long gone jobs.


how many jobs did wall street create in the last 10 years?

zero

how much of a wage increase did the middle class get in the last 10
years?

zero



Unions need a leash.


america has no unions

and it's wall street that needs a leash. you just refuse to see
reality

Quite true. Not just the Germans either, Japan too. There the unions
are expected to and do consider the health of the company and it's products.

You also have a far more frugal society in Germany. They actually have
private savings, beyond what the pension plans save for them.


True again. US is a net debtor society.


and it has no unions. the germans, with their strong unions, have a
net positive current account balance

Totally out of balance. I
used to think mortgage deductability was good, but it causes people to
be 55 and in debt on their home. If you manage your finances at all, by
early 40's you should not be in debt at all.


blah blah blah...right wing bull****.
