“And the DEMS made this lousy bill, which will do nothing for us again! If we vote any of them back in office we deserve it!”

“This bill is not the one they made. That one has been beaten down by the GOP and the running blue dogs.”

“OMG where do get this! Both parties are crooked and were a major disappointment over the years. It took both parties to ruin our country. We need to change and vote for a third party. That will send a powerful message,
nothing else will! They will not change, they will not put senseable rules in place, they have the money and they do as they please. The shock of losing out would put them back on earth again.”

“Figures the government churns out are not to be trusted. Since the USA abandoned the gold standard government knew the people would not take lightly to the true figures. They have been

The Economy Is On A "Sugar High" And Its Growth, Fueled By Government Intervention, Is "Unsustainable," According To Famed Investor
Commented Dec 28, 2009 at 14:23:51 in Business
“Question: Do we have two (2) economies. From where I stand everybody is down and out. Who are those people who are on a sugar high? Yes, I know congress belongs to them, they bailed their friends out to protect their investments. Let the little guy lose his retirement and pension, robbed social security to pay for the wars, 3 at that with a fourth one looming. And their lack of reining them in tells us a lot. When will they address the trillions of derivatives out there?”

“You are not alone - I feel the same way! But watch the people, they will vote for the same old crooks all over again because they are loyal to their party and brainless indeed! I call those sheeples who stick with a party because their horizon is so small.”

Senate Democrats Tell White House: Drop Cap And Trade Climate Change Bill
Commented Dec 27, 2009 at 23:52:56 in Green
“CO2 is not necessarily a bad thing. The Vikings lived well in Greenland when it was green and not frozen over. Emission Trade is what it is and richer countries would stand to lose whereby poorer countries would stand to gain but all countries would have to be willing to take part in it. However, that is NOT cleaning up the earth but trading in derivatives and eventually will overtake the profitablity of oil.
Best thing is to get rid of their plan though they will try again in Mexico City, when they meet again.”

“Figure it out finally, they don't want alternative methods to get energy but they want more dollars!
If we had an energy shortage or crisis they would be open to new technology like the photosynthesis technology but the USA said NO right away. After all they have to have a certain dollar amount involved in it. One hour charge from the sun would give power to the whole globe for a whole year - there is no money in it. So please wise up, unless they stand to make globs of money they are against it but keep feeding us lies to further their agenda.”

come 2010 and 2012. I will vote 3rd party and I wished the country would wake up and finally figure out that both parties are not working for us. How much beatings do we need before we realize?

Bloomberg On Health Care: You Have To Question The Govt. We Have

“We have not suffered enough yet. People are still way too aloof. Some are party loyalists and there is no changing their minds, those are sheeples on both sides

time after time again unless money buys his place, which may be so because of
all the insurances being located in that state.”

“Finally someone who gets it. There is no left in America, there is only right and farther right in the Government. This has been proven by this debate. The Government has been bought off and could care less about the people. Until there is more awareness of this nothing will change. When someone has the integrity to stand up against the flow they are ridiculed by both the press and their peers. Look what they did to Ross Perot, and what they are trying to do to Grayson. America has to wake up!”

“Enjoyed the article. Where were the air marshals?”
Javida replied on Dec 27, 2009 at 15:29:04
“Word is w/ all the holiday travel, they can't be everywhere!! Is it expecting too much that they'd put the marshalls on flights when folks like Adulmutallab, who are on a watch list, are flying?
If you're on a watch list, you're treated like everyone else who files. Isn't that the most inane thing you've ever heard?? I've posted elsewhere the other options open to ensuring flying safety for those on a watch list. Why can't the US authorities get this right? Pitiful.”

“Just think, without jobs there is no recovery. Just who is paying the taxes. Pretty soon all the coffers will be empty. Congress has not taken steps to prevent money being deposited off-shore and they are refusing to go after the big tax cheats. I always wondered what happens to the money they get
from the pharmaceutical industry, or any other industry they fine? Where do those millions go?
Once the coffers are empty, we won't need politicians, and maybe that will be a good thing LOL.”

“We need jobs first and then a living wage, not the pennies they paid us thus far with little to none on benefits! Let us make money and have the same benefits like the Europeans. The fact that the USA has over 269 billionaires and the next country to this only has 26 says a lot. But then, of course, the rich will be screaming again. How much does one need - why the greed? And all that religion is useless, I guess that, too, is only for the serfs!”

“Correct, Australia had 5% unemployment and it was full employment. Therefore, our
claim that we have 10% unemployment is a lie. 10% would not have the impact on the economy as we see now. Some states are approaching like 50%, especially now, during winter, look at the Northeast Coast, where the car manufacturers shut down, construction is impossible during this time of year, etc.”

“10.2% is not a lie, it simply doesn't take into account those who are no longer looking for work or are "under employed." The rate is something closer to 15+% when those are factored in. We were running below 5% unemployment before the recession.
What unfortunate states are experiencing 50% unemployment? Those states will be defaulting on their debt if that is true...so we are in for another round of Fed bailouts I guess.”
