Abbolish the federal reserve to stop creating money with debt? Stop sending billions in foriegn aid to countries that have a higher rate of employment than us? Stop spending billions funding the IRS and CIA? hell, You wouldn't haveto cut taxes if you did all that. The government wouldn't even need to tax you alot if they were saving that kind of money. It's down right insanity spending that kind of money on the above with unemployment so high and such an intense national deficit. In fact, it destroyed Soviet Russia. So you want a better solution then the bailouts? There it is. I actually can't think of a WORSE solution then printing money out of thin air and keeping spending habbits the same.

They should have at least had the mortgage credit be $15 grand (not $8K) and make it for ALL home buyers and not just first timers. The money from one or both "bailouts" would have been better used by whiping out comsumer debt so people could spend money on goods and services instead of paying off all their debt. This would effectively stimulate more spending, curb job loss and create more opportunity for people to refinance their homes to avoid forclosure. Instead we inject this now worthless but uncomprehendable amount of cash into a banking system led by crooks who are just gonna misapproprioate the funds anyways. I see absolute no way how this bill will have any positive effects on our country's current situation. The worst part is none of the senators even read the goddamn thing. |

Free market? guess not.. if it were they would let the companies fail that should fail. if you cant make a better car.. then its not problem to pay higher taxes to make sure you can sell cars... start making better cars.. dont come after my money. If i can sell t-shirts can i go to ford and make them pay me money to keep afloat? nope. i think obamas "Hope and change" is more like He hopes it'll change. its just going to make things far worst for my age group as we get older (20's) crappy thing too.. my wife and I were just laid off and because we work part time for our selves and part time in retail we wont be eligible for unemployment.. to pick up the slack while we are out of work.. I think they should have taken the 790billion and divided it fairly among the 300million US citizens. homeless, home owners.. whatever.. it would have went 100% back in to the economy and the problem would have been solved. .. well if everyone didnt just quit their jobs with their new fortunes lol as far as iraq.. the should have taken out sadam .. then let the iraqis sort it out. they will never had democracy out there though .. they are based on a totally different believe system. our democracy was base on values and ethics of a (dare i say it) Christian belief system. and over there they are on a totally different set of ethics and ideals. They don't believe in sexual equality and things of that nature .. that our modern western society does believe in. they are not only asking them to setup a new form of government but to drop their morals and their beliefs to better align with the US model of government. It wont work. |

I see alot of people saying this lately, but i think it's flawed. How many people spent their simulus checks last year on vacationing out of the country?
