Americans are claiming that they are fed up with out of control wasteful spending and sick of "business as usual" in Washington. But will they actually put their money where their mouth is? Doubtful. Most likely Barack will be our next President and take spending to a new level, "in the...

No point in debating with seasideheights. This poster is lost and clueless about the effects of this plan and is arguing for pulely partisan reasons.

These people are fucking clueless. That's exactly what you get when you elect a bunch of asshole lawyers to congress.

If they ask for more money in the next decade, the public will be close to "revolutionary" and heads will roll. I actually think this may be the wake up call that the country has been needing that shows just how out of control our government really is with spending.

Hell, why not? What about a bailout for plastic surgeons? Surely their business will be down since it's elective. Probably the largest single obstacle to the average US citizen accumulating wealth is overspending on vehicles. They are a deprecaiting asset that many American households...

This chick is going to get more than she bargained for. Taxes, upkeep, etc. Nobody is going to buy that thing unless you knock it over and put up something new. You have to ask yourself, why someone would sell a house go for 2 bucks.

I agree that they are pretty dead right now, due to getting away from what makes them attrative in the first place. Reps. that are Dem-lite's will never be around long. They just can't out-Democrat a Democrat at the end of the day. BUT, if they get back on point, they will certainly emerge...

The fact is, ANY tax, is redirecting money from "the people" (including private enteprise) and giving it to the government. Money isn't just created out of thin air, so it is taken out of the economy and put into the hand of the politicians in this case. SOME of that money will be used to...

I feel your pain. I don't see eye to eye with the Republicans much of the time either, although I would disagree with your point about religious bigots. Anyway, I usually vote Republican as a "lesser of two evils" kind of thing. I just happen to place individual freedom and responsibility as...

Where are all of the libs on this board? I've never seen them shy away from injecting their leftist views on this board before. I suspect most of them are so young (libs on this board), they had no idea what the Democratic party was truly all about.

How the fuck do you know that the people participating in this thread haven't called/emailed their congressmen? I have and I'm particpating in the thread. Get over yourself.

Nothing. I'm a huge football fan. But, I also make sure I'm up to speed on financial issues, geo politics, US politics, etc. As you probably know, there are many people that really are clueless about all of those things, they have no idea of what XYZ politician's views on the issues are or...

No, don't let them fool you. EVERYTHING the Dems do revolves around wealth redistribution or "class warefare" or whatever term you want to use. At the end of the day, these people despise free markets and captitalism. They even know that capitalism works, but can't stand the fact that...

It's not going to be stopped now, if they can get the votes. It's not like Bush will veto this bill if there is a transaction tax.

Hey at least the guy can admit when he was wrong. Most people would have come back with a new username.

That is an absolute fact. I can't tell you how many reasobably intelligent people that I know who watch idiotic reality shows or sports every single night on TV, yet are too bothered to educate themselves on the main issues of the day. And many of these people vote!

I'm pretty certain gnome isn't advocating Paulson's plan either.:D

Yes, that's exactly where I want my portion of the $700 billion to go.........straight into the lawyers pockets.:confused:

Just $1mm? Why not a billion per account? Even better, why not a trillion?

Post of the year! The only question is whether the people will step up, when it really counts...............election day.
