Description
Thanks Liberals & whimsical independents."Imagine that you had an average monthly income of about $170 balanced against average monthly expenses of about $940--and that you were more than $14,000 in debt.
Then imagine that as of today, you had only $58.60 in cash left in your bank account and $130.50 left on your line of credit.
Now multiply these numbers by 1 billion and you will have the up-to-date financial situation of the U.S. government."

Well, I guess you are a wimp and cost the country over $5 trillion. Thanks for that. Your children thank you too. Explain to them why they are paying for healthcare for illegal aliens.
no hippies please.

Yeah it was all me! Thank you for making so much sence.
Thanks to your kind I can't adopt children, so I don't have to worry about explaining my powerful money spending powers. So ... $5tril on healthcare for all the immagrants in the U.S.? thats would be about half million each. Does that sound right to you?

Only moonbats are stupid enough to think that spending money and raising taxes will help fix a broken economy. And to think these same moonbats wish to place the heads of recently elected Republican politicians on a platter for the crime ofβgaspβcutting spending!

Well it hasn't worked for 10 yrs (8 yrs of overspending under W) but it will prob work this time. Moonbats know best.

-_- what's the point of this? being one sided to any political party is more obsolete than you can imagine, leaves no room for improvement. Plus the next president will probably be ridiculed as well in this pointless cycle of "name-calling" to which nothing is accomplished. Honestly If McCain were elected president he'd be in the same shit hole Obama was left in.

Disagreement is not obsolete. So long as there are people in the world who are wrong, it will never be obsolete. It's true that McCain is almost as statist as Obama-- that doesn't mean people should give up fighting against statism.

Please, there is no need for harsh words from anyone here, we can discuss this calmly, can't we?
This little comic is simply illustrating how much debt the Obama administration accumulated thus far. His Stimulus bill was a bust, and simply didn't work, as we've seen. Thats all.
π: 0 β©: 2
I hope you know that not all that Debt is his and half of the stuff he's had to do was compromise because republicans don't want to work with Democrats and vise versa. :l
π: 0 β©: 1
I see no reason why that should be the case. The stimulus bill was a complete waste and he is still asking for money. While there was an amount of debt during the former Bush administration, it was well below the level its at now. He's responsible for the bulk of it, and its logical to see why, given all the bills he's trying to put through.
Its true that the republicans and democrats don't want to work with eachother. The republicans don't want to work with the democrats because the dems want to spend more and ignore what their constituents want. The democrats don't want to work with the republicans because the republicans want to set a budget, limit government control and stay out of the common man's way. Seems like a mutual feeling between the two.

Unfortunately it is, if you paid close attention to what was happening in the first few years you would have noticed, you can't believe what the media tells you all the time and instead if you do your own research you'll learn a thing or two. As for asking for money, you need money to make money and we don't have it, its worst now because our financial backers are in peril and shit has gotten worst because some idiot suggested we print more money [by the way the President does not always make the decisions, the get pressed on him, he just takes the crit and BS other people diss to him] so now the economy is even more fucked.
But you have to give it to Obama, at least they haven't gone to alt methods of jump starting the economy, like making Maryjane legal or something dirty like that.
No the republicans don't want to work with the democrats on grounds that they just don't like them nor do they want to cooperate for the common man. The dems don't like the repubs and aren't doing their job either, its not about whos spending what. The republicans are cheap penny pinchers who don't want to spend their own money or loose any they make.
And thats a joke, limit control? PAAAAALEASE! Yeah totally want to limit it... Thats the reason why they want to make it so that doctors are forced to tell the women that seek abortion all about what they'll do and PRESS on them what a bad decision they are making because they[repubs] think its not moral.
Or why that Repub gov just HAD to press a bill through that would force people to give up their Union RIGHTS even AFTER they agreed to the financial terms just because the state was "broke" yet he's still lazing about the damn govs. mansion..
Yeah, they TOTALLY want to limit government control and they TOTALLY want to stay out of the common man's way.
By the way, that snarky gov who push through that bill... that whole situation stinks of Repubs wanting to squash Dems from the roots so that Repubs are the only 'main' party.

I'm well aware that the President doesn't make every decision, nor do I watch mainstream media. I scarecely watch any news at all, because the bulk of it is crap. This is information I've pieced together using logic and reports.
While you do need money to make money, you can't piss it away like their is no tommorow either. The feds have been wasting money at a dismal pace with precious little to show for it. I've seen men with far less do far more. Partially because they know how to spend money wisely. The feds don't earn the money for themselves. They jack up tax rates or make new ones to bring in no money without any discipline at having worked for it. As a result, they don't have any true regard in how to spend it.
And no, I don't 'Have to give it to Obama'. The only thing I've seen him do that I liked was bombing Lybia. He's probably regretting that now though.
Okay, you say republicans don't want to work with the democrats because they don't like them, and they are penny pinchers. Ever think that the reasons I listed are WHY the republicans don't like the democrats? As for being a penny pincher myself, I find it helps out quite a bit. All that money management goes a long way.
I view the abortion controversy as defending the right of life to the unborn child. The child has its own rights too, does it not?
And thats hardly a huge control issue, at least from my point of view. Maybe I'm wrong about that. But the democrats seek vastly more control than that. They seek control over what I can own such as what kind of car I drive, what kind of house I live in, both dealing with environmental issues, what kind of food I eat, dealing with health issues and animal rights, what kind of guns I can own despite the fact that I've been using them for years since childhood and have a spotless record, they want to take away yet more of my money for tax reasons, they want to control corporations that built themselves from the ground up to make things 'fair', again, not earning their own money and not being buisnessmen coming into play, what kind of pets I can own, another animal rights issue, where I can live, an environmental issue, and even what I'm allowed to say. The political correctness cult coming in in that area.
Unions on the other hand, while not by any means my field of expertise, have become more like extortionists. They hire people to picket in front of various stores not because the groups are being unfair or unjust, but because they don't have a union. In the old days unions were certainly good, but today employee benefits are staggering. Also, the feds toying with minimum wage and insurance deals actually directly resulted in my hours getting slashed.
You're logic in this field I'm afraid is flawed. By definition of their party, liberal democrats expand governement responsibilities, believing government is the best or only solution to real or percieved problems. Conservative republicans on the other hand, by definition, want to limit government, believing most problems can be solved by the people. While government does have its responsibilities, it can't control everything. When that happens very dangerous things happen, like the Ethenol project for example. In an attempt to make a 'green' energy source, they tried using corn to produce a new type of fuel that wouldn't harm the environment. Not only did it make food prices rise, but it turned out that its not environmentally friendly at all. It is in fact worse than gasoline.
I believe I've provided sufficient evidence to support my believes in the differences between the control desires between the two parties. Did I miss anything that the dems also wish to control?

I can point out so many innacuracies with your reply, I can also say sufficiently that you sound like you're paranoid through parts of it but you know what, I just don't feel like arguing nor do I see a point. Its not gonna change shit.
So, get over it.

Well, I've been a self-admitted paranoid, so no arguement here. If you don't want to continue this debate, thats fine by me. You started this, not me. I listed plenty of information and logic and am confident in my views. I have nothing to get over. (Shrugs)

I apologize, but in some of the later posts I saw there was an exchange of less than kind words, and I greatly dislike peoples quarreling in such a way. I tend to be a mediator.

Yea I tend to portray my-self as aggressive unintentionally, so no fault of your's. I would have probably done the same thing

Yes, of course. And you must forgive my counterpart, Conservatoons. He's a good guy, but I'm afraid he doesn't debate well. We all suffer from various drawbacks. I have many such qualities! XD

lack of understanding? we know exactly what makes the economy tick, it's not our fault you liberals stop us from cutting off your supporters who spend every dime they got in risky investments.
π: 0 β©: 1
Ok first off, I'm not a liberal, there you go assuming things. This is why you have a lack of understanding because you lye blissful in your own ignorance, refusing to even acknowledge other perfectly reasonable points.
π: 0 β©: 1
you sure sound it.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well I'm not, if anything I'm independent leaning towards conservative. I just don't understand extremist conservatives lack of knowledge for American history, that's proves many of the points made, such as having a very limited government, to be already tested and failed. Read up on the Articles of Confederation, both the original and ratified versions, and you'll see why a government that is too limited is dangerous for the country. However having to much government interference is a bad thing as well, I never said I liked Obama, yet people insist upon believing I'm a liberal due to my non-immediate agreeance with everything that is conservative. How do you think scientists advance their knowledge? Not by agreeing with everything that has already been established, but by asking questions. That is my only issue here, is the lack of curiosity towards improving our current government, instead of just agreeing with one side no questions asked.

we've seen enough of what liberal ideology does to a nation, that is all there is to it.

You're still not thinking outside the box, you're observing the blatantly obvious facts, and refusing to look beyond them. One can never ask enough questions...
