Nine Reasons the Economy is Not Getting Better

Disciplinary Actions for Politicians; and other fees besides Taxes!

*They always want you to focus on taxes; and not all of the other fees, and ways that they get our money!

*Politicians should experience write-ups, and disciplinary actions just as the rest of US.

*Many people could avoid foreclosures, and evictions; if people would pay them $100/wk. to live in their homes, etc. You could move in a total of 13 or 18 people into your home. Of oourse, there are many rules against saving your own residence in that way...

*I want to hear about some huge Haiti, DR, and PR drug busts, etc. Yet, then again some people there could utilize some of that crap to anethetize their pain and hungers... Why don't we hear about the drug lords there being arrested? Are they their politicians, and military???

*America comes back when it manages itself; and stops trying to manage everywhere else...

*53,000,000 + people reside in 6 SE USA States FL GA AL TN SC & NC...

And..

They can stop taxing us to death.

what i think

I think it’s all the foreigners that keep coming in to be country I mean come on can we just get up and go to some of the other contras? the answer to that is heck no we can go to Mexico and may get a good job but we can’t just buy a home like they can or rent one I mean we are only allowed 90 days at a time but they get to come to the use and work I think they need to pass a law that you need to be a us citizen to buy a home in America. And that will lead to the end of job loss!!!!!!!

stimulus plan

What we should demand is instead of bailing out all these big companies that are in trouble like Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac 87 BILLION.... They should have devided that money up between every man women and child above the age of 18 who are genuine American citizens and after taxes would have given a 3 family household whose ages were 18 aand above almost 1 MILLION dollars now thats a stimulus plan and wouldjump start the economy quick WE AS AMERICAN

citizens have worked and paid for it and deserve it as we have earned it already but our government will waste our money throwing it after bad and excessive spending and people who are in dire straights can't get the help they need but illegal aleins can get what they need. We need to MAKE our government work for us not us for them. FIRE everyone in congress and start over put people in place that love this country and what its supposed to be about.

Both parties blame each other for the mess were in but the facts are the 542 people who make up our congress are responsible and should be held accountable ..

Get Ready To Stick Together America....Gonna Be A Long Haul!

I know many economitsts do not want to say that a depression is brewing, but I believe it is already in the works. The fact that people arn't spending, there are no available jobs, and the government has no money to help......cause they are in debt too......is going to make for the worst American financial nightmare ever! I do believe that America needs a revolution of sorts to change our whole economic system, it definitely needs to be changed for the good of all people.......not just the few!

9 reasons the economy is not getting better

When are the people going to wake up most of the comments I have read blame 1 party or the other. This is what the government wants you to do; they are all crooks. It dosen't matter who is in the White House or controls Congress. The only thing the government does is spend money and the money is not theirs. First they line their own pockets and then give it to banks, Wall street, or big corporations because that is where they will get a job after they are out of office.

NDNCL

Why hasn't anyone brought up how the National Do Not Call List is having a major negative affect on the economy by restricting companies that use telemarketing to generate appointments/leads for their sales reps? This affects all in home sales companies e.g. home improvement, basement waterproofing, security systems, air/water purification plus mortgage companies, leasing companies, telesales companies, etc...Because of the NDNC companies are not starting up or growing and going out of business. I am a Sales/Marketing Consultant for 20 years with 75% of my experience being in the Telemarketing industry; I myself lost a high six figure position because of the NDNCL.

Why doesnt anyone mention this.....

WHAT ABOUT ALL THE PEOPLE THAT ARE SELF EMPLOYED AND WORK AS INDEPENDENT CONTACTORS LIKE SALES PEOPLE??? THEY DONT/CANT CLAIM UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS SO THE SO CALLED UNEMPLOYMENT FIGURES ARE WAAAAAY OFF THE MARK!!!!

The looting Continues...

>>>It is much worse than anyone thought. The destruction of the financial and industrial system by the Bush looters has exceeded the comprehension of the average American.<<<

Um, Brent. Take a look around buddy. The looting continues. Has Obama termintaed the Tarp? Has Obama clawed back the 13 Billion Dollars Goldman got from teh AIG Bailout.

Has Obama told JP MOrgan to stop storing oil in that tanker they rented to speculate on oil prices? (And that happened AFTER Obama was sworn in. And NO they never did that when Bush was Prez. This is JPM's first soiree into oil tanker land)

Has Obama told Goldman Sachs that as a bank holding company they shouldn;t be borrowingf rom the Fed AND speculating in the stock market?

Has he suggested to Ben Bernake NOT to lend banks money at zero percent interest so they can make moeny off of us taxpayers by charging us interest?

Has Obama done anything to stop the high frequency trading that allows these insolvent banks to front-run the trading of avg. Americans and make risk free money on the arbitrage?

The looting continues, Ben, and it's stronger than ever.

PS: Enron happened on Clinton's watch and was uncovered by Bush'd Justice Dept.

Economic Masochism

Mort's diagnosis is generally accurate, but his prescription is more of the same misguided Keynesianism “stimulus” much beloved by faux economists like Paul Krugman and the political class because it increases government control and provides a means by which statist politicians can buy votes. As a small businessman, I am not planning to hire more workers in the current misguided economic and political environment. What we need is lower taxes and freedom from oppressive regulations.

Speaking of oppressive regulations, the cap and trade bill passed by the House is the most masochistic piece of legislation ever to reach the halls of Congress, exceeding even the infamous Smoot-Hawley tariff. Anyone who thinks that a reduction of, perhaps, 0.1-0.2 degrees C in global temperatures by 2100 in exchange for massive increases in energy costs needs to have his head examined--which embraces most of the Democrats and eight of the Republicans in the House. And who in the hell could presume to measure the success of government’s actions anyway, given the substantial natural forces which are the primary influences upon climate.

Furthermore, the notion that carbon dioxide causes warming is merely a theory, and one with a myriad of contradictions. Al Gore believes it, of course, because he stands to make millions off the ruse.

U.S. News & World Report contributed to the global warming crisis hysteria with its April 2009 Energy and Environment Issue, which featured such global warming alarmists as president Obama, socialist Carol Browner, the ill-informed Steven Chu, the pinhead Henry Waxman, Senator Babs Boxer, easily the dumbest member of the Senate.

We are not going to transition to “green energy” for generations and any attempts to force the issue based on the flawed science of global warming hysteria will only result in unnecessary economic pain both in America and in the poor nations across the globe.
