Taxing the rich will not solve the problem.

Quote from colonial dr:

Angry Romney voter. No the world and the US is not going to end. Geez......

You don't "get it", jerkoff!

America will "still be here". (The dirt ain't going anywhere.) We will just be owned by somebody else.. and that won't include YOU!

"dr"... does that indicate that you are a doctor? Even if the PhD kind, you should be smart enough to figure something out, don't you think?

it is all part of obama's plan for a world gov't . that statement of obama's that there is nothing special about the US as a country says it all.

no it refers to "drive"- I do not like the doctors.

I voted for Romney too, but America is not going to fall- not even close case in fact.

Your "America is going to be all right", head-in-the sand naivete and optimism is admirable. Unfortunately, you apparently haven't perused enough world economic history to understand.

America is in DEEP DO-DO.. and Odumbo is "shoveling fast".

Without radical reformation, America as we've historically known it (none of which is on the horizon) is TOAST!

And in case you don't understand why... the primary culprits are the greedy politico, "want something for nothing", tit-sucking parasites, and DemoCraps/Progressives! They've been grinding down America's success for 100 years...

they keep talking about History, and The Fall of the Roman Empire. The Romans got over extended Militarialy, and then they devalued their currency.

Yet, there it is, still existing. Many go there each year just to look at things and eat the food.

If we collapse like Rome did, how will that be bad?

If the euro goes to parity, I might even move there.

Rome may have been alright but the rest of the empire turned to hell for about 800 years. In fact the level of output produced in the roman time was not matched again until the 19th century. So it had a huge impact.

Quote from maxpi:

Private banking is a problem. If banks were publicly owned they would fund the public sector in it's entirety.

The graduated income tax is a major problem for several reasons. It's very invasive, who are they to ask me what I make or how I spend it? A flat tax on consumption would bring everybody into the fold of taxpayers. Rich people that consume more would pay more. Criminals would pay taxes every time they consumed something [unless they were incarcerated]. Welfare addicts would know that if they voted for more government they would have to pay for it via more taxation.

I am all for flat tax, but there are so many with a vested interest in that never going forward. Think of how many lawyer, accountants, CPA's, and business that are rich off the dysfunctional tax system we have.

All you are stating is emotional crap that means nada. Please provide some more substance.

I am not saying you are wrong for attacking Obama- but Obama cannot destroy things. No President has that much power. US has not changed much in the last 10 years- GDP is great as it normally is, and the whole financial crisis had a GDP slump of only a couple percent. And we all think we have problems?

Obama's socialism is overblown, but I agree he is a dumb black poor ass, but so are allot of politicians. The feds stake in GM is there to save jobs and help unions, not to take over industry. The fed would rather to sell GM now if it was up, but they are too stupid to cut losses. He is not a socialist, just a black minority democrat academic.

Workers?..... yes unions are so recent. Not- they have been around forever. America is made of a large majority of workers, few entitlement dicks are here. Even the spooks in the Bronx would rather work than receive entitlements. Nothing in the US is "headed for the hills"..........

Whenever there are significant changes, somebody gets the hose. If we persist in trying to work out a solution where "nobody gets it", no change will ever take place. What needs to be done is that which is best for the country as a whole... and whomever "gets it in the neck" will just have to lump it... or there will never be constructive change.
