  1. Oh really? "Oh canada... yeah... you arent protecting the..uh... white tailed pink flamingo of antioch... im sorry we wont trade with you" Its similar to our emission standards and other atuo standards.
  2. Actually in the business world it IS POSSIBLE to have a profit before tax and a loss afterwords. But taxing our business at the HIGHEST RATE IN THE WORLD. Clearly is not the answer to a BAD ECONOMY.
  3. probably 40-50k a year. But you realize that generally thats how business works right?
  4. ITS PROTECTIONISM
  5. and in the long run we will have a stronger economy and fuller coffers for those projects.
  6. Obama makes similar claims as some random guy off the street about the economy and free trade. I have heard all these arguments before and there are reasons they generally are not implemented.
  7. BS, he is all lipservice. His proposals do not back up his ideas. plus the fact that his ideas will stymie further economic growth and thus lower gov't revenues.
  8. Obama appears to have a poor understanding of international trade.
  9. I wonder how Obama plans to re-work the join income tax brackets...
  10. It should also be noted that aside from the small tax hikes, "slick willy" was overall pretty conservative fiscally.
  11. A good read on the current crisis and its relation to regulation. http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=ZjY3Y...YjA=&w=MA==
  12. You people who post about the middle class obviously do not understand how our nations economics work. Unless you somehow can magically find a way to bring manufacturing jobs back that pay $60-70k a year then i don't see how you are going to create a middle class for the people who only have a high school diploma. The downsides to a service economy really is that if you don't have college education then your pretty well out of luck because all the service jobs that don't need college are either minimum wage or like $15/hour. Short of unionizing (which Obama is apparently strongly in favor of with his current proposals) it would be impossible to expand the middle class... at the expense of making services a hell of a lot more expensive for the rest of us. FORCING the rich to subsidize the middle/lower class is not the best way to go about it, especially as that one WSJ article i posted earlier shows that for the lowest classes, Obama's plan actually makes the marginal rates HIGHER for them (and exactly the same in the lower-middle class, and higher when you start earning more than 100k i believe... this is for 2 income family homes, so 100k is not that far out there), which would discourage them from trying to earn more money. Additionally, since the workforce is much larger these days, it does not work in favor of a middle class. The old pension model does not work anymore because people in this country do not have enough kids to support it.
  13. burrito
  14. Bueno!
  15. Estados Unidos!
  16. Actually i wonder what chuck's positions on the issues are? I may actually be enthusiastic if he were to be the GOP nominee.
  17. I'd vote for him over Obama or Hillary.
  18. 1) Obama will likely have super majorities in both house and senate and thus will not likely have to be bi-partisan in any measure... which quite frankly scares the hell out of me because any sibilance of conservatism in fiscal policy will be lost even worse than the hack job our current administration has done with it. 2) After the liberals get some bills passed the public will invariably turn against them and get a republican majority back in 2010. 3) in 2012 Hillary will successfully run against Obama, or totally divide the party if she fails. 4) Chuck Norris will be the GOP candidate and will easily win.
  19. Well, i am totally not a fan of Hillary, but i would 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000x prefer her in the white house than obama.
  20. Pfft, thats nothing compared to an anti-matter bomb. Heh i stumbled upon this http://www.myfoxkc.com/myfox/pages/News/De...mp;pageId=3.2.1
  21. And if you are real lucky you might find an avid collector who went through all the pain in the ass work to get an old fully automatic M16.
  22. Well im sorry, since you don't own the biggest or best car you should be banned from owning a car. same goes with houses, televisions, and your wine cellar. That is why i am so adamant about constructionist judges, they are far less likely to strip your rights. It is about time we regained some rights... and i may be willing to concede on abortion if it means more freedoms overall.
  23. bumper sticker
  24. Sort of, its what got us into the Great Depression but trying to stabilize prices is equivalent to "price setting" which will just prolong this episode. Depending on the government intervention you are suggesting, it may be passive or it may actually have the unintended consequence of encouraging people to default.
  25. Go karts
