Thats probably why they were doing so bad, most people just walk around and never buy anything (I did the same thing). IF the EPA regulated indoor air, this company would have been shut down years ago just for their ionic "air purifiers".

Guys, you are forgetting that logic does not appeal to the segment of people voting for Obama. It doesn't matter how useless he is, these people think he should be president because he is a good speaker and because he is black (half).

Just as the democratic controlled congress/house hasn't done sh*t that they promised either, but people don't learn. (Ok besides the stimulus package and wasting time with roger clemens)

My points exactly, see laffer curve above too - raising taxes will not only do damage but effectively generate lower taxes collected if not timed correctly/done in moderation.

Youre missing something important though. Bill's tax increases were only possible because of the booming economy and massive productivity increases for real GDP. This would not be possible in all environments, in fact it could cripple the economy if done at the wrong time...

What evidence is there that trickle up is better than trickle down? Where is the money that will 'trickle up' coming from? Is Obama an economist that has a plan, or nearly a good speaker who has no viable solutions to anything he suggests? If you tax the hell out of the wealthy and...

Ok you have got to be flaming, but in case you aren't and actually believe this- WHY WOULD A TRADER WANT A CANDIDATE WHO PROPOSES HIGHER TAXES, ANTI-BUSINESS POLICIES?

You mean you had the last four presidents as brokers? ok you win.:D

You're right, but this thread is like fighting a losing battle, OP has no clue; thinks the market going up has nothing to do with monetary/fiscal policy, productivity, etc...just as long as the president it well-liked by Canadians.

BIAS: Bias may result from opining on a subject while holding a particular viewpoint on the subject, and not applying neutral point of view correction to the process, whether consciously or unconsciously. Thanks for clearing that up, I'm sure most people on the board will be more...

Read the article completely, you just proved "Fight the facts" point. “I guess we’re somewhat relieved to see there’s a net increase in physicians coming into Canada, although it doesn’t really help us in overall numbers,” lamented Collins-Nakai. “We are more or less treading...

Everything I stated was fact and based on numerous studies and observations of systems like those in countries like Canada. How am I brainwashed? Because free markets have proven to be more efficient? The reason the US has expensive prescriptions is because of excessive government to begin with.

Some people would prefer to make the decision themselves on how much and where to spend their money on healthcare. Universal health care generally gives you fewer options, lower service quality, and encourages people to be a wasteful drain on the system (thereby unfairly driving up the costs to...

Did they say it was a stimulus package, or to stimulate your package? :eek:

You could gross 500k and still get a rebate if you have enough deductions/tax shelters. The rebate is based on 150k adjusted gross income (for married jointly), and even then it PHASES out after 150k, so you may still get something

Oh cmon, how many people die in the US per year due to school shootings (and only because of a couple idiots with guns)? Now compare that number to Japan where you have more than 30,000 people killing THEMSELVES every year. The standard of living in the US is definitely on the decline - cant...

Wow. That really depends on your definition of "productive". They may have very productive personal lives, but thats at an expense to their economies since they work so little. One thing for sure is that the countries you mentioned were more productive at suicide: average suicide rates...

Ok well you took the comment way too seriously... it was more of a joke, but i was actually supporting your original statement that Bush does not do as Jesus would do. I actually read most of quoted page, not just the first paragraph- if you read further you'll see that the tithe was...

He might not be 'communist' but when you look at his policies relative to other candidates, they do resemble socialism more than anyone else's. The problems of debt and illiterate population did not just start in the past 8 years under Bush. Democrats will definitely not spend any less...
