then they shouldnt

but if you make millions a year, like, the top 1% of this country, the government should be taking a good percent of your money and distributing it to those who dont have much.

seemed to be a nice idea in the robin hood story, eh?

but we dont need to loot and pillage other countries to make money. we can just as easily export goods. it works BETTER then invasion. plus, i dont give a damn about iraq. or its people. they arent american. they want freedom, they can fight for it. its not our responsibility to go marching in sacrificing our own troops for them.

We havent "pillaged" anything, we removed a potential threat to america in the middle east. Re-opend oil to their public, and are in the process in of creating a new market. So far ++++ on everything I wan't.

And we don't have goods to export. no one wants to buy 1 fucking orange for 5 bucks. we are now a service based industry. not a one that can throw out products. If we boughyt steel from americans no one would buy cars, so the steel industry would be up, but the automotive industry would be down. Do you understand basic economics?

average workers have no say on who runs their company. the stockholers do. and mostly just the majority stockholders. so yes, the board is to blame. they all make too much. they're greedy bastards, and we just reward them for screwing people

get back to me when you are a shareholder

Yet again the hard working man living the american dream gets shafted by the lazy bastard who refuses to work. I know you may not have ment it that way, but thats how the "welfare" system works. Thats how "unemployement" works. The system is abused thus is defunct. Your throwing away someones money to a crack head on elm street.

but how many lives are worth that oil and new market?

the whole "saddam was a threat" thing is a conversation for another day.

and right there is our problem. maybe we should worry about exports rather then going and sticking our noses in other countries buisness just to exploit them

yes, it needs massive reform


i know this, the politicians know this, everyone knows this. but theres just no money to reform it right now. and bush certianly isnt going to go out of his way to fix it. his friends are the ones making the money. and he can point to it failing to say how misguided democrats are.

If it sustains our countries power and the safety of our citezens, then as many as you it takes.

Yes the sadaam conversation should wait a bit.

Jeusus christ we are focusing on exports, thats what I've been saying all along!! Thats why I agree witht he war in Iraq, NEW MARKET FOR OUR EXPORTS!!!1111

You don't understand how this economy system works, we survive by exporting jobs and providing services, information, and technologies that other people dont posses. this raises the cost of living. which means that no one can offord our ftangeable exports. SO we have to creat a NEW market for our TANGEABLE product and one of the few places left that is civilized enough to be assimilated into a NEW market is the middles east.
