Nope, just tired of hearing conservatives whine, when in reality they have it pretty darn good.

Instead of asking how close are you to dying on the street... why are you not asking, 'can I help you in some way?

Satisfaction leads to complacency which leads to mediocrity.

To say that private equity firms like Bain Capital HATE American businesses might be a bit of strong language.

But, there's no doubt that such firms are always trying to change the businesses they get involved with to make them more profitable.


So, why are Private Equity firms Dissatisfied With American Businesses?


And when will Private Equity finally be satisfied?

There are many more problems with America today than 20-40 yrs ago..... there are obviously many problems that need addressing, but it is more a function of both parties serving their special interests and using the media to deflect peoples attenetion through dumbing down

To be dissatisfied is not hating, it is wanting to address problems

How do you know that you need more help than me?

I'll take care of myself and my family.

Democrat speak for 'can I help you in some way? means tax the rich and give it to Planned Parenthood or Solyndra.

America is about to lose much of the charity it gets from Catholics because Democrats are trying to knuckle them into something they disagree with.

Every time Democrats hope to make things better (from their perspective) they make things worse.

In keeping with the topic of this thread. Why are Democrats so dissatisfied with America?

Democrats can't answer. Everyone is just fine the way they are. Keep your fingers out of everyone's business.

It's called continuous improvement, and it's forever. No time limit.
Some folks long for the old days when they were making snow angels and black and white TV was the rage. But the reality is you're an adult now, those days are gone and you aren't going to get them back. Look around you, get involved, try to address an inequality that may better one of your fellow human beings lives.

Wrong! We conservatives aren't looking to turn back the clock on technology. But there is something to be said about the more innocent and more moral times back then compared to the trash that is considered normal these days.

I have no problem with equality for all races. Even back in those times when blacks were discriminated against I was opposed to that and I wouldn't want to go back to that black time of the past. However, there were many good things that were much better back then compared today. You seem to want to riducule the good things about the past. By the way, people still make snow angels today. So what was your point? Sounds like a lot of underlying resentment of a time when white people were more of a majority. We weren't all racists, not by far.
