Krause's resentment of Bush stems from the fact that Bush was intelligent enough to be admitted to Yale while Harry had to settle for Kansas. Can you imagine the humiliation he must have suffered? |

When does it become Obama's problem? 2369? it may never be possible to undo the damage the right wing did. Time the man got with the plan and admit his econonmics of debt-spend don't work. actually it did. the economy was growing. now that the money is spent, and YOUR view is becoming dominant, the economy is dying. welcome to 1929 courtesy of the right wing That this despression is about debtors not paying their bills and that includes Obama/Democrat congress. Debt whores are destroying the worlds economic system, and #1 debtor in the world is now Obama. Spent more debt money than any other human that ever lived. we need to spend MORE to undo the right wing damage. otherwise we'll never dig ourselves out of this hole the right put us in |

The well is dry. cut defense spending by 150B...as conservatives have even recommended... borrow even more and use it to pump up the economy. force companies to distribute productivy increases to their workers instead of paying dividends to give the middle class a pay increase to SPEND and implement tax cuts for the MIDDLE CLASS, not the rich, like the GOP has been doing for 30 years |

That is where you break even. borrow even more and use it to pump up the economy. Tried that, does not work. Reagan did better, in less taxes. His only mistake was not shrinking government to fit. force companies to distribute productivy increases to their workers instead of paying dividends to give the middle class a pay increase to SPEND What increases? GM went bankrupt sucking over $177 billion in wealth down the sewer. (not including GMAC) and implement tax cuts for the MIDDLE CLASS, not the rich, like the GOP has been doing for 30 years Funny, finally got around to Reaganomics. Took about 10 months and the recession ended. But given the government debt/deficit, hacking away at government waste with a chain saw is also needed. -- We all work for government, they ceased working for us a long time ago. |
