Quote from gnome:
What can be done about it? Short of a Second Revolution to throw all of our criminally greedy politicians out of office, probably nothing. Smartest thing would be to pull a "Jimmy Rogers".... cash in your chips and get the Hell out of America!!
JFK believed in keynesian economic theory which is a complete crock of shitQuote from day7793:
JOHN F. KENNEDY was a great man. He knew what kind of self entitled doofus and rejects inhabit his country. That is why he rallied and appealed to them in his historical speech.
You are one of them, who taketh all away and give nothing. On top of that you finger point and blame others for your misery. Grow up or stay at the bottom ladder like most.

Tell me what other country our size of 300 million people, stuffs free money in its Citizens pockets? Your country has done a lot for you, its time you do something for it.
Quote from thriftybob:
The Fed chairman wouldn't be cutting rates and advocating "fiscal stimulus" if the economy was growing. IMO, he might be cutting rates if it was slowing, but I don't think he'd come out and advocate more "borrow and spend" unless it was in an out and out decline.
