Typical State with 10% unemployment

Quote from tmarket:

Take a guess who was McCain's economic advisor and McCain's treasury secretary would have been? ..... Phil Gramm. Did you really want to go down that road ?

Phil Gramm started the fire that led to trillion dollar deficits and 10% unemployment through deregulation. It is not big government that caused this crisis. It is just the reverse. Just ask Alan Greenspan. At least he is sorry he pushed for more deregulation. Phil Gramm on the other hand is no where to be found.

Yeah, and Bill Clinton signed off on it all... Clinton's economic advisers were from the same school as Reagan's... We do need to reregulate, but are the current people doing anything? They want to make GM's leadership grovel, they want to send busloads of Acorn demonstrators to scare people that get big bonuses... the current leadership are third worldish punks and street organizers..

At this point in time Alan Greenspan is willing to blame anyone or anything to hide his own faults. Lets face it, I don't know that we should be listening to Greenspan a whole lot. He is one the main architects of the financial meltdown.

Sorry you guys, I'm anything but a democrat, but the South is by far the most impoverished region with the lowest standard of living in the States...

It appears to be 6-4.

Anyhow, it appears that McCain states believe that the program for tuition, health care, etc. is a good job and they are correct...

Personally I'd rather live in a Blue state.. with high employment... and skiing for old folks... Vermont! Yes, thank you ET. I can stop coming here now...
