UNBELIEVABLE!!! Japanese credit rating agency questions US ability to repay debt

Quote from jficquette:

That public works stuff is such bullshit. Who is going to do the work? Not the lazy ass welfare cheats nor will lazy ass x white collars workers.

When Katrina went through NOLA the clean up was done by illegals because the lazy bastards in NOLA refused to work.

Thank you Democrats for 70 years of fucking us over.



70 years of democratic rule is why the US is a super power.


8 years of republicon rule is why the US is going to be a banana republic


Bush voter much?


I have a thread that delves into your neurosis.
 
This is part of the plan that central banks have been planning for about 5 years. They have been trying to correct the global imbalances between the US and Asian nations. Think about Paulson pressuring China to devalue the dollar and strengthen the Yuan.

Since we are now in the shitstorm that they were trying to avoid, they are going to take advantage and solve the imbalances now. It may prolong the current downturn, but eventually will make the world economy sustainable for longer term growth. The US will be able to re-build a manufacturing base and actually produce something besides paper exports.

Last year gold zoomed at New Years if I recall. Your guess is as good as mine as to whether we look back and see this as the first domino going down.

Actually when I add it all together I haven't got a clue where we are all going.
I just want to be on the right side of the ride.

gov't expenditure on schools, welfare and infrastructure is peanuts compared to cost of wars.

Wrong, you're a dumbass who can't do simple arithmetic.

Every war we have been in this century was started with a democrat as prez. Democrats are failures in foreign policy so war is generally the result since they lack the guts it takes to head them off.

This Iraqi war was neccessary because of Clinton's incomptence and the blame for this falls on him.

Many wars? Yes.
All Wars? No.

Now if list wars by proxy, we'd be here all day with both Reagan, Nixon, Bush Sr. and Carter...:confused:

BTW, that Clinton causing the Iraq war quote is laughable, especially since the Kennedy Admin put Saddam in Power...

, The Reagan Administration helped arm him against Iran...

and the Bush led Administration betrayed him...
