No. Not without the help of government subsidies.

Meg Whitman does not agree with you...

First, she praises the California of 30-years ago. You know, when Jerry Brown was governor.
Ezra Klein - This might be the most devastating ad of the election

Our government has already established who will succeed and who will fail.
The free market is not free any longer.
The whole reason your seeing job losses and unemployment stagnant.
You have the government deciding if a business will make it or fail.

It's ironic since the 'baggers seem totally clueless about the COTUS. Hopefully they'll sit at the front of class.

oh goodie... indoctrination lessons on how to maniacally twist & misinterpret the Constitution of the United States of America until it is unrecognizably pro-corporate anti-people


Is this how the 'christian' right classes turned the Holy Bible into a business scam manual

Well, he has been posting here for a long time it seems, according to the join date on his profile, so seems like he's a local. And he's got a really good point about Tea Party folks being clueless about the Constitution. Did you ever watch any of Christine O'Donnell's interviews?

What doesn't happen without the help of government subsidies? Monopolies? If that's your position, you really need to study economic history more.

Wanna bet Paladino's Orange baseball bat had a.....Made In China.....sticker on it!?
I mean if you're gonna threaten someone with a baseball bat.
At least make it an American-made baseball bat, for gosh sakes.
Anything else, makes you look STUPID and....well....UNAMERICAN!?

GOD BLESS THE USA!!!!
