And They Say Tax Cuts Do Not Create Jobs

Order cannot be privatized for long. I understand why repubs love the private sector above all else, it meshes with their ideology, it confirms their narrative of the rugged individual who raised himself up by his own bootstraps, it plays to the masses of those who have forgotten what government did for them and remember now only that they must have been cowboys in the old west without benifit of law and order, without any of the governmental amenties that have helped them buy the boots those bootstraps were connected to.

And of course the money they get from their actions doesn't hurt either.
I wonder with US Corporations making record profits, http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/03/25/corporate-profits-2011-all-time-high_n_840538.html Will the US credit rating effect their ability get loans on a global scale?

Sorry wrong thread

The private sector is the economy!

If you don't get that, then tell us what the federal government makes or produces that adds to the economy!
I am sure mr2 and I both understand that the private sector is the economy. I believe that you don't understand that order is also a part of the economy and if government produced order, and that order extends to the economy, then government makes or produces something that is essential to that economy.

Pretty sure I never disagreed with that genius.

Beenthere? we can all agree that it is all the people's money. Now are you willing to agree that it is the people's debt as well?
It's Obama's debt, fuck that asshole.

Rubbish. All they do is build billion dollar rockets. So what if invisible braces, scratch resistant lenses, memory foam, ear thermometers, shoe insoles, long distance telecommunications(aka cell phones), adjustable smoke detectors, saftey grooving(that loud noise on the highway when you go off the road), cordless tools, MYLAR, and water filters were all part of it. So the fuck what.

Sorry mush brains, the economy was booming until 2007.

You dolts want it both ways, if the economy is slowing, it's because of the tax cuts. when asked if you're better off than four years ago, it has nothing to do with the tax cuts! LOL

so stupid . . lmfao . . . the rest of the country was in the same place as you, most of the house foreclosures happened before 2008,

http://abcnews.go.com/Business/bank-foreclosures-reach-record/story?id=11877534#.UE-fL1G5qM8
"The foreclosure crisis in the U.S. began in 2006, when the stock market collapsed and unemployment began climbing to the highest levels since the Great Depression of the 1930s. Home prices collapsed in many states including California, Florida, Nevada and Arizona. Homeowners either couldn't pay or walked away from their mortgages, leaving the lenders with properties worth far less than the amount owed."

most of the banking institutions were in trouble ,Enron, car manufactures were gonna have to shut down . . . . . .economic plight is not a light switch that turned on only in 2007 . . .. . what a idiot

I've always agreed it's the peoples debt, because i know the federal government does not have the means to pay it down, only the top 50% of tax payers share that burden my friend.

Now, are you willing to admit the "peoples debt" is part of the bottom 50% as well?

don't forget about MRI machines and CT scanners. NASA technology is at the core of those two machines.

Enron happened way back in 2001, never heard of the US sock market collapse of 2006 and unemployment levels in 2006 were way fucking better with an average of 4.6% lol WTF you smokin?



My point was, we were way better off in the years before Obama, not withstanding 2008. Which I put 75% of the blame on the democrats in the first place.
Hell, my three best years were from 2005-2007

Not withstanding 08 - only the second most financial disasterous year in American history. I see you find it convenient to your ideology to blame democrats 75 percent. Of course this is because the CRA and fannie and freddie caused it all, right beenthere?

It had nothing to do with Bush's spend thrift ways, it had nothing to do with errosion of regulations on banks, it had nothing to do with lack of oversight.
