BECAUSE according to the original Constitution our currency was supposed to be based on a silver weight and gold weight and a SILVER DIME is worth about $3.00 in silver as does our gallon of gas.
FIRST OFF LET ME SAY SOMETHING FOR THE RECORD AGAIN:
I was NOT a little Bush Supporter nor was I a McCain supporter.

In MY OPINION: we went from a RIDICULOUS Clinton to a TERRIBLE Bush to HORRENDOUS Obama.

Basing the problems on who was doing what:
Lets start with the housing issue:
This video has plenty of Dem's in this clip - Shocking Video Unearthed Democrats in their own words Covering up the Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac Scam that caused our Economic Crisis - YouTube (http://youtu.be/_MGT_cSi7Rs - broken link)
SO - the housing market starts to collapse ...
Then a hurricane wipes out a huge part of the flow of petroleum and fuel
So - what happens? GAS cost goes crazy - right?

Who gave a crap about the people who keep the economy running?

You add stretched middle and lower class budgets to increased gas and diesel costs and NO ONE up in D.C. gave a REAL crap. What did they do? Toss out a token gesture several hundred dollar check with NO honest interpretation as to what was going to be accomplished - small part of the nations personal debt was hopefully going to be assisted when people tried to bail out a credit card ... those D.C. clowns KNEW it wasn't going to do anything for the economy ... they were trying to reduce the impact of banking loss ... forget the people who powered the economy!

ALL OVER THE INTERNET people laughed at me when I said what we needed was government assistance to encourage FAST PAY RAISES so less people would belly up financially ... BUT THAT WAS AGAINST THE MASTER PLAN!

Master plan was to reduce OUR LABOR WAGES so third world countries can eventually afford to buy the junk we make.

Why do you think our textile industry is gone?
Because UNION Wages make the cost of a lousy pair of socks to expensive for us - not to mention the REST OF THE WORLD!

No ONE was able to continue buying our things over seas.

So - what has happened during THIS administration?

BANK BAILOUTS?
... and a bunch of Banks were bought up by other banks who got GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE ... and what about the People?
What did they do for us?

AUTO BAILOUTS?
Which came with job losses - remember Pontiac and Saturn are GONE!
... did you catch the last housing marketing stimulation stunt?

OOOO! 8 thousand dollars from the government to buy a house ...

.... BUT ...
they never said much about the fact that the $8,000.00 had to be paid back the next year on your taxes!
What did THIS ADMIN do good?

ObamaCare? So good that Pelosi was passing out WAIVERS so her supporters did NOT have to get trapped in that mess!

... the problem is both sides hope enough people BLINDLY follow their vague promises so they get re-elected.
Three words...ONE WORLD ORDER!

All of this has been planned for some years, and both the dumbocrats and the refuticans are in on it. It does not matter who you put in the W.H they still will be told what to do by their handlers.

Proof that you will rot your brain listening to Bill Maher.

There is a difference between someone that is rich, and a rich person who is a job creator.

For example, the former Google Executive who is now retired, after becoming a multi-millionaire, after working at Google for five years, is rich, but he is not creating jobs, he is just living off his investments. just because a person is active in the consumer market does not make them a job creator, even if their purcahses indirectly add to the profits of a business.

Even though some might say Doug Edwards' investments are helping to create jobs, he is not what I'd call a job creator.

The rich do not create jobs. They eliminate as many as they can because workers cost them money.
Good point...

Jobs are created by the middle class.

When Sam Walton opened his first Wal-Mart, was he rich? No, he was middle class. When Pepsi started, middle class. Even Bill Gates, middle class.

Job creation is the result of innovation and entrepreneurship. The rich don't need to innovate or to be entrepreneurs. They may encourage such activities, and they may help finance such activities, but job creators almost always come from the middle class, and even, sometimes from the poor. For instance, J K Rowling's business enterprises (the books, the movies, all the associated marketing and merchandising) created thousands of jobs. And she was dirt poor when she wrote the first book.
Very good point...

Rich folks never risk their own money to 'create' jobs....what a talk radio lie....

The 'rich' risk other peoples money...not their own...

No rich person reaches into their own personal account and creates jobs....what a farse....

And when the rich loose their money...we bail them out...but when they make money...we're kept out....the working class that is...

Bill Maher - Job Creators - YouTube




Pelosi is a 62% richer tyrant now.

She should pay more taxes because she's not a "job creator" just rich.

Leave the job creators out of it.

Yes, it's called Crony Capitalism. Please write to Obama and tell him how bad his Crony Capitalism policies are. Bailing out GM should have been a criminal offense.

Government should NEVER bail out a business.

So you think our Federal Government controlled education system is doing such a good job that we should continue dumping money down that black hole?
