Quote from telozo:
You got it all wrong with the housing bubble. It's not Joe Sixpack that is whining and crying, it's the banks that loaned money to him. They all knew, Joe and the banks, that it will end up in foreclosure, but Joe just didn't care, and the banks just hoped to pass the hot potato to someone else. When rates are low and money a plenty this will always happen - it just makes economic sense.
Yeah, leave Joey alone. Joey is just living the american dream and getting something for nothing.
CRGARCIA said "no way you commies"
I am sure welfare, state run education, medicare and medicaid, social security, progressive escalated tax reforms, are all part of a free economy. reread the Communist Manifesto by Marx. You are living in communism. And yes, you my friend were duped into believing this 'democracy" truly is "free". Silly boy, the government never gave me freedom, freedom was my for the taking to begin with. This is why I trade. I am more likely taking the other side than anyone I know and usually find myself rewarded for doing so.
Freedom is a state of mind. Try thinking independently apart from everyone and everything, your tv, your past influences, teachers, paradigms instilled into you from you were very young. You will find you are not free but a prisoner. You were made and developed to worry and fear. The more worried and afraid you are the more dependent you are on something to help you cope with things. You have not the faith to do anything on your own so you always look for help. So, the last strings will be pulled. It only takes a few more wacky occurrences such as these school and mall shootings for you and the public go screaming to give up your liberties to be properly armed with your proper right to privacy. Then it is all over for you, your family, and your families children. They will live, they will work, and they will praise big government. They will own nothing but the likes and the comfort to know that collective government will always be there to feed them, to clothe them and to put a roof over their heads. You must go deep into the politics and backgrounds of your political circles to find that your democrats share the same concerns and views as the neo-conservatives and that both parties, work for the same ends, to always come to the same stalemate conclusion that was expected from the begining. The conclusion of control, the exact opposite of freedom.
