Overheard in Jersey City this afternoon.
   
This is how out of touch republicans are -- and this guy likely reads The Wall Street Journal too . . .

So this repubican was saying that Greece was in a lot of (financial) trouble, but this country would never get in that kind of situation because (wait for it . . . ) we can always print more money.

Yeah sure a republican said that.  :mental:

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

It is actually kinda, sorta true. Greece is part of the Euro. The US can print their own money.

Everything else the dummy said is a lame bouncy.

Actually, it's absolutely necessary to print more money. The money supply has to keep up with the productive growth of the economy.
The alternative is deflation, which will quickly destroy both growth and prosperity.

Yeah, but we have been printing money out of thin air the past 2 years and that has just made things worse. If there was some economic growth to back up the printing of money, it would be a different story.
