It's time to tell the American people the truth about this economy.
.
This is one humdinger of a recession.
This is not a normal economic downturn, like we have experienced many times before. This is some serious shit.
People have no money to spend. They no longer have their credit cards. And they no longer are able to re-finance their homes for spending money. All they have left is their meager wages which have stagnated or flat-lined for the last 30 years. That is all they have and that is not enough.
That is the basic problem with our present economy. When there is no money, business cannot sell their products. When they cannot sell their products, they lay off workers. It doesn't matter how much capital they have on hand or how big of a taxcut you give them, they are not going to hire anyone if there is no demand for their products.
Do not expect the economy to get better anytime soon. It has been too long in the making. Until the workers of this country have money in their pockets once again, our economy will continue to slug along, barely alive. That is what we have to look forward to.
Until the politicians recognize the severity of this "recession" and do something to put people to work, we will continue to suffer this economic decline. What should be done?
The taxes should be raised on the wealthy. The Bush taxcuts should be allowed to sunset. That money should be put into a jobs program to help the unemployed. Somebody has to pay for it so why not those with the money? Why not those that have robbed the working person's productivity for the last 30 years? Let them call it "class war". Just do it.

They already know the truth, they're living it, and they are learning more about it all the time. And it has nothing to do with what kooks like you would have them to believe.

Never mind the fact that raising taxes will send us deeper into the recession! Lord where do these DUmbasses get this shit? Less money to spend is less ****in' money for the economy! Your stooooopid, O' MyGod Whata Bummer, has already spent the taxes you're goin' to collect for the next 30 frikkin' years! I'll bet your daddy was a fence post and had more brains!
Living proof the Monkeys ****ed the Buffalo, figured out their mistake, and failed to get rid of all the offspring in order to save us from the stooooopid residents of the Island!

I can't figure out, nor will I ever understand, just how raising Bill Gates' taxes will make my life any better. :mental:
Must be because of all that "new math" they teach now in school, somewhere between "condoms for cucumbers", "womyns studies", and "cultural diversity" classes.
You know, all the stuff students need to be "well-rounded, productive citizens".
Just like the DUmors. :hammer:

If Bill Gates wants to make my life better, he can lower the price on a copy of Windows 7.

My point exactly!

Ya think? What kind of intellect does it take to think you can make somebody pay more taxes and expect things to get cheaper?
Don't answer that!

Yes.
It makes perfect and total sense to raise taxes on those who are already struggling. If you raise taxes on the rich, the rich (business owners) will pass those tax hikes down onto the middle/lower class. Makes TOTAL sense.
Let the Bush tax cuts expire. Sounds great to me.

Only a DUmmie would think to tell the average American something they've known for months and months because they just happen to be living through and are acutely aware that the idiot in chief has absolutely no clue what he's doing.
