You can bet the house that not even a 1% of Spaniards know who is this fascist woman.

Then why, by her logic, should anyone have listened to her? Either she’s wrong, or she can’t handle it herself, or she’s not a woman. Any one of those removes all of her credibility, although I don’t think she needed any help from logic for that.

Captain, gotta link to this Ramsey?

Ramsey is not only a conservative but he’s a Conservative Christian(CC). Ramsey’s Financial Peace is based in a suburb of Nashville where his radio and TV shows originate. He is famous for his live, and taped, seminars called Financial Peace University(FPU). Many conservative churches offer these seminars.

In addition he does a daily three hour radio call-in show on personal finance. Married couples, including MDs and lawyers; single mothers, and truck drives call his show for advice. Many are able to call and to scream what backup said: “We’re debt free.”

Ramsey doesn’t express political opinion but will comment to the effect that those who are expecting social security to take care of their retirement should remember that the government almost never balances a budget.

He will express opinions about government activities such as the IRS rebate on which the politicians finally agreed. He doesn’t talk about individual politicians or candidates.

Ramsey is not against owning stuff, but he is vehemently against owning debt. Much of this results from his experience of going bankrupt due to over-leveraged real estate holdings.

He may also be on a personal vendetta against credit card companies. He calls the companies by name and gives his opinion that most of them are scum. In FPU he says that American Express told his wife during their bankruptcy period she should leave him because he wouldn’t pay his debts. Ramsey apparently thought this was a little over the top as a collection technique, but AmEx didn’t.

Ramsey says there’s no problem slamming the companies, which he does freely, because he claims he can prove everything he says.

bitblt dropped his AmEx after having had FPU the second time.

bitblt wonders what influence FPU will have on personal debt and property ownership after two or three generations of CCs have listened to Ramsey.

Nonetheless, the man is a CC and reads from the Bible at the end of every radio show.

Lots of “interesting” reading there.

Too bad Phyllis didn’t know how to keep her place as full time house maker and instead became a full time anti-feminist activist…

She doesn’t take her own advise too well… NO?

GM will keep churning them out, regardless of sales. If they get too far in the red, they can always lobby congress and get another bailout. They’re too big to fail, remember.

barfly. please stop muddling my theory with what happens in reality. ;)

Next is selling us air, for those who can’t take the grossly polluted air. Oh, dang, they are selling that too. =P

The only problem is Ford. Ford will also want to greed up as much money that they can. But, to make money, they need to sell cars. So, they will undercut GM slightly, to sell them. And GM will undercut Ford. Then Ford. GM. Until, finally, there is equilibrium. A point comes when the corporation makes a profit, but is unwilling to cut any more because then it wouldn’t be worth it.

In my scenerio GM would set the price of the car. They might be tempted to keep the price of the cars the same, so the executives could pocket the extra money at everyone elses expense.

Corporations are greedy, but it is that greed that will insure the prices moderate to about where they are today (net with the tax). Corporate executives can’t realize their greed without sales. They won’t sell much if their price is too high.

Got to split. Thanks.

Because it is so radical, it doesn’t have a chance. It would also be hard to insure that some group, whether it’s certain businesses or income groups, wouldn’t get devastated in the changeover.

But, I’ll try to read the book. When I talk to them, fair taxers seem to have an answer for every objection.
