Obama: Iraq war will be over by year's end; all troops coming home

[spitfire12309]

Thats good to hear.

[Jesus2]

It was an economic orgy fuckfest for the ages... Oddly enough, Clinton wasn't involved.

 

Well spoken.

Our Economy wasn't 'fucked' by one person. Bush fucked it, Obama fucked it, everyone had a part in it.

 

Actually no, Obama is constantly trying to fix it. With his jobs bill for example, not saying that alone would fix it. Raising taxes on the rich (those people you don't like, sort of like myself). The Republicans are cockblocking him on every step. He can't press a button and fix the economy. He has to have bi-partisan support, but the Republicans are standing up for certain rich people and fucking over the rest of America. They fuck up the economy and they don't allow it to heal. They completely fucked up the real estate market down here in Florida, where you have to pay $12,000 a year in taxes on a $400,000 property. How can someone buy a vacation home when the taxes are almost as much as they are back home. It's pretty ironic too, they fucked over rich people in Florida too, where the property tax on a $1,000,000 + home is bigger than most of your salaries.

The best way to fix our economy is for the working class to start spending money. When they start spending money, then demand goes up, then you need create jobs and hire workers to meet demand. All the government can do is to try to get more money into the middle class so they can spend it. That's how the U.S.'s economy got stimulated after WW2, because FDR's (didn't take effect until Harry Truman) GI Bill got soldiers and their families more money to spend on cars, homes, etc. You can't keep money up at the top (rich) because they don't make the majority of the populace.
