Spending needs to be curtailed more. That too. Especially defense spending, which is at totally absurd levels. They get their tax increase and not even 2 weeks later are talking about more? give the politicians a $ and they will ask for another. they will never cut their line of credit stolen from the American people.

And you cold find 1 democrat that has done the same? i guess those blinders you have onrelly do work. At least it was about not spending money time. We usally hear stuff like "Raising the debt limit is unamerican" or " rep's are spending like drunken sailors and we will be fiscally responsible". How hypocritical were those that made those quotes?

All are welcome to come sit buy our fire pit and drink the beer in my fridge reguardless of political affiliation. All that is required is a smile and a laugh. Mark & Holly When are you next at SDC, Mark? We might get there this weekend to close things up for the winter. unfortunately we haven't been there much the last 2 months because of finances. We are hoping for a better year next year.

Answer the question, what reforms have happened that occupy is responsible for?

they are put on hold until aftert he election when Obama will have more flexibilty. :-) You are confused. That's the reason Romney and Ryan give for not revealing details of their secret tax plan. Tax plan isn't secret, I have heard it and want it. the left needs to open eyes and see. Really? So tell us which deductions will be eliminated. Tell us why Romney said he wouldn't release the details. what deductions to be eliminated needs to be worked out but then why would he piss off groups now. Why wouldn't you be for this? If he does this the big companies not paying tax, like GE, would start to pay tax with the deductions eliminated or capped. Isn't that what the left wants is big corps to pay tax?

What about the UN treaty that he wants to sign banning many guns? I have heard many things about treaties and other stuff but got no real information yet. Seems this stuff has been hard to come by and I would be interested if you have any information on it.

Note: Robin Hood stole from the rich. The rich made their money through taxes. The poor were poor because the government taxed them into it. Thus, I am actually in agreement with you. Let's get the money from the government and give it back to those from whom it was taken. Let's leave some for the government to provide necessary services, i.e., making sure roads and defense and interstate disputes are managed, and give the rest back Sorry but Robinhood did not steal from the rich, he stole from the government (the king) and gave to the people. The king being the richest of the 1%. he was only rich because he over taxed to people.

Why this comment?

since when do you get to define what is or is not earned income. I say they eaned it all. Your contributions in this thread and another show that the information sources that right wing conservatives rely on can cause people to believe things that are patently ridiculous. Deadbeats trying to own homes? Inherited wealth is "earned"? It is stunning that abject ignorance is so common among right wing conservatives these days. I'll bet you think that the Obama administration had two years of united Congress that would have done whatever he had asked, and the Republicans did nothing to obstruct any legislation that passed the HOR. Your information sources may spread this lie, and you might believe it, but it is a LIE, as in factually incorrect. Just like Rmoney and Ayn Rand's boy, a stream of lies and misinformation are presented, and lapped up by right wing conservatives, like a cat does cream. Ignorance can be corrected, stupidity cannot. The billions made by walmart since the old man died is not inherited it is earned. Even some of the inherited money may have been earned but that was not the discussion. And many of the bad loans from the housing collapse was from people that tried to get more then they could afford and instead of buying according to their income bought according to their wants. then instead of working harder, selling their house, or cutting back on frivolous purchases they let the banks forclose on them and then cried about how the gov should bail them out. Yes they were deadbeats. but for many's sake I hope stupidity can be corrected.

since when do you get to define what is or is not earned income. I say they eaned it all. Thus the battle is begun. Why do people think that a manager does not "EARN" the money? I can tell you that managing is mentally more stressfull than actually doing the manual labor.

John you do realize that these 2 are not contradictory. supporting a possibly proposed legislation to protect life and not familiar with any currant legislation reguarding abortion that he agrees with is ok to say and does not contadict himself.

Is this were you show GM and wisc employees as a model to how well a union can help?

Although that works as chat room fodder, I seriously doubt that's what his plan is. Since his positions change on a daily basis, I doubt anyone knows what his plan is. Well, I guess we will just have to elect him to find out, won't we? Why not, that is how we got Obamacare and the left thinks it is the greatest thing since the wheel.

sooner or later everything dries up, running out of deadbeats that tried to own homes had to happen sooner or later. I only feel sorry for those that got caught up in it because they lost their jobs due to the deadbeats not buying a house they could afford causing the housing collapse and financial meltdown.

I'm sure they feel very confident. you do realize that as the Waltons die the money will be split many more times to all the grand kids and great grandkids. As long as the money is centralized it will continue to supply jobs and help keep people supplied with cheap products to buy. Working at Walmart is a stepping stone to better jobs and increased pay, just like cutting grass, delivering papers, and working at fast food places back 20 - 40 years ago. Only a loser would use walmart as a career, but it is great as a filler between jobs.

I think they should do both, we know if Bush was potus the media and the liberals would have the noose tied up and waiting for Bash's head to be inserted by now.

go ahead and strike, there are 28 million unemployed, shouldn't be hard to replace them.

recovering? I guess the huge increase in part time work is a recovery for you. I say it is stabilizing and waiting for something to send it up or down. As far as the huge increase in part time jobs I feel that is because of the uncertanty and the insurance mandate in the ACA. part time is cheaper for the employer since the ACA will be in full effect by next year.

Maybe some need a better financial advisor. Since when is it the Waltons problem that many lost value? It wasn't walmarts fault that banks gave out loans to unqualified people to avoid being harrassed by the liberal left which started the financial meltdown. the government picking winners caused the meltdown and some smart people in the walmart corporation found a way to profit from it. sounds like smart business to me. but now that some people were sucsesful those that don't have want to steal from those that have by telling the government to take it from them in the form of taxes. I say get a second job, work harder, save and invest, or find a better job.

we can't pay it now!!!! We are not paying for the debt, we are getting a Chinese loan to pay for a chinese loan. It was 6 years ago since we paid our debt with our money. the collapse is coming unless the fed gov stops spending, reguardless of who is president.
