McCain’s grasp of economics is so poor, that he is susceptible to all the Rasputins sent to him by Bush.
He’s too old to learn economics now — he’ll be out of office before he can grasp the subject.

McCain has always been a government employee – never having to apply for a job, except to be dell 1691p battery,dell inspiron 8000 battery elected to congress as a returning POW. He divorced his first wife and married the wealthy Cindy and continued his political career.

McCain and most who understand the economy realize that we have a bubble in the housing market, no doubt, and we had a bubble in the dot-com stock boom of the late 1990s. These overheated economic results are not a measure of fundamental economic strength, they are the result of poor decision making, people getting teaser rate adjustable mortgages assuming there would never be a business cycle.

Who is to blame when people borrow more money than they can pay back? Blame the lenders? Okay, they shouldn’t lend money. Blame the borrowers? Okay, they should know there are risks. Blame the education system for not teaching basic economics?

The country is strong, our manufacturing base has been decreased in part because nobody wants factories, or eveyone wants to sell insurance or make a killing in the stock market. Where are the students learning engineering, physics, math, biology, genetics, manufacturing?

We have too many liberal arts types learning politics at left-leaning universities, from professors who have never made a payroll, never produced a product, have no clue about how to create a product or service and compete in the open market. That’s where our economy needs help. We have too many people depending on handouts, too many who think it’s easy to earn a living, too many who think they can simply tax everyone who is successful to distribute to the needy. Rome tried this, they tried to tax their way out of financial trouble, and getting more citizens so they could have a larger tax base, but it didn’t work for the Roman empire, which eventually went bankrupt, financially and morally.

The USA has been through many economic cycles, it’s part of the “herd mentality” that drives investors, news media, etc., to all look in the same direction for answers. When things don’t turn out as expected, it’s all doom and gloom.

This time, however, the USA has squandered it’s inherent strength, common language, common culture, core beliefs, on pipe dreams of being all things to all people. Let anyone come to the USA, let them bring their language, their culture, and don’t expect them to adopt OUR values, let them dictate to us THEIR values. This is what is different this time.

If the youth of the USA continues believing in multiculturalism, and that they can afford free health care, free education, easy high paying jobs, and tax corporations that create all these things, and tax wealth that provides the capital for investments that creates all these things, it should come as no surprise that liberal left-wing “democrat” thinking will be the end of the USA as we know it, and Hillary or Barrack and the collection of left-wing losers who never had a real job will turn the USA into a second rate country with no prospects for greatness ever again.

Vote Democrat and you get socialism. It won’t work, never has, never will. Believe in Michael Moore, or Al Gore, or “change” (which isn’t always for the better) — drink the cool-aid, adopt the liberal religion, it’s your country to screw up, and you’ll do a great job of it. Never question a professor who calls George Bush a name, or hates repukes as you call them. You have what you have because business and our strong economy brought you your standard of living. Toss it out, tax it out of existence, then you can really enjoy your country.

PS: To the idiot who posted in ALL CAPS, the great depression was caused in part by ignorance, laziness, and greed, that is true, people betting their life savings borrowing money they could not afford to lose, but what got us OUT of the depression was not higher taxes, it was a world war that taught Americans that maintaining freedom is not free, it takes work, and living within your means is preferable to speculating on get rich quick schemes. We may very well have a world war if the democrats do what the promise to do, let the radical forces of the world take over the Middle east and Europe.

Am I the only one who occasionally suspects that the GOP is trying to turn the United States into a feudal state?

Banks face “systemic margin call,” $325 billion hit: JPM

Wall Street banks are facing a “systemic margin call” that may deplete banks of $325 billion of capital due to deteriorating subprime U.S. mortgages, JPMorgan Chase & Co, said in a report late on Friday.

The U.S. jobs results also came after the Federal Reserve expanded the amount of its short-term auctions to $100 billion in total in the central bank’s latest effort to ease credit concerns. Ongoing concerns about bond insurers, known as monolines, and their effort to save their top ratings also are weighing on market sentiment.

Wanna bet the CEO’s still get their golden parachutes?

it’s a no brainer…

He’s either audacious as all get-out or else he’s completely oblivious. Any guesses on which it is?
