Hello from a new member.



This stimulus package has me really concerned. Someone has to pay for this, who will that someone be? Taxpayers will be paying for this for a long time.

The package is supposed to stimulate our economy by, among other things, creating jobs. I lost a decent job to Mexico back in 2001 because of NAFTA.

I don't have a problem with the Mexican people but I do have a problem with those who made NAFTA possible.

Since then I've seen many good jobs leave this area. When citizens are forced into lower paying jobs the Government also suffers because they have less of a tax base to collect from. I wonder if our polititians know this. I wonder if they even care.



If the jobs created can't pay for the stimulus package we will be in an even worse situation.</end quote></div>

It' all about "votes" to all politicians! They for the most part don't give a damn about what the issues are as long as they can get re-elected. America is so evenly divided that they are trying to tip the balance in their favor by pandering to the immigrant (legal or illegal) voter!
One thing that really needs to be be done and WE can do right NOW is to forget about political correctness! VOICE YOUR OPINION, whether or not it hurts someone's FEELINGS!

 

I'm a teenager,I go to school everyday. I feel you got to give the guy a chance. Do I pay taxes? No. Maybe my opinion does'nt matter. If he screws up there will be more Republicans next election. Look at all he has to deal with: economy,healthcare,global warming,immigration,iraq,afghanistan. The man has a giant plate in front of him and he like all the Presidents before deserves a chance. I really don't think complaining about it will fix anything. I read the Constitution. I find it very difficult to believe he could transform us into a socialist nation. We are the most resourceful people on this planet and we always get things figured out. I love my country more than most things in life.

 

Let's see, first he was a communist......then he was a socialist.....then he was a fascist, then a marxist. Hummm, seem to be running out of ists these days. Trying to figure out how anyone can be all of those things at once, or just two at once for that matter. Wait, maybe he was a socialist first, then a fascist, then a Marxist? Gotta love Fox News. Feel sorry for people who believe this crap.

You honestly believe with our system of government that he's going to change everything into a completely new system of government? Think about what you're saying and how it meshes with the way Washington operates.

It'll be OK.

 

Very well said Scrambler! Thanks for adding that.

 

The irony I see, is that a bunch of leftists with socialist leanings elected Obama thinking he was one of them, and they end up with a fascist instead!!!

I think Obama will f*** everything up, and in 2 years the House will turn over completely as everybody sees this regime for what it is. 4 years from now, we will have a new president as well. Remember, it took the f***up Jimmy Carter, to get us Ronald Regan!!!

 

Unfortunately, you and your children will be saddled with the debt from all of this deficit spending....

My experience has been that kids get fed a bunch of leftist teacher's union garbage in public school (political indoctrination camps!), then when they get out and are finally making some money and realize that it is all going to taxes....and many of them wake up and realize what a scam it all was! Others however don't, and continue to elect idiot politicians.

 

That's the way our system works. It's not perfect, but it's the best system in the world.

 

Recon: Since you bring this up....Please specify exactly why or how he can now be considered a "Fascist" (as opposed to the socialist/communist). Fox and various other right-wing authorities consider him a communists/socialist. How is it possible to be a fascist at the same time? Do you have any idea what these labels mean? My guess is you're just reciting some non-sense you heard on talk radio....where they spew hate, and the minions such as yourself push it out to whoever will listen. You should be happy he's considered a fascist...it's more along your line of thinking.

As a political epithet, the word fascist has been applied mainly to a broad range of people and groups on the extreme right. The individual, institution, or group(s) called fascist often find the use of the term in this way to be highly offensive and inappropriate.

IT'S A MULTI-PARTY SYSTEM IN AMERICA. YOU WANT DEATH TO THE LIBERALS, YET YOU WAVE THE FLAG AND RECITE THE CONSTITUTION. TALK ABOUT FASCISM.

I'm done with these political forums; It's too disturbing to hear how angry and nasty the right wing in America really is. -No, I'm not a Liberal. I'm a registered Independent and I vote both ways.

As opposed to saddling the kids and US with another depression! Take a look at what the great Republican President Hoover did; leave it alone, it'll fix itself, and we as a nation and world spiraled down into the Great Depression. Can you just imagine what these same people would be saying if Obama wasn't doing anything like the right fancies. Look, it doesn't matter what position the man takes, they will take the opposite. -Let's give more tax breaks to the richest people in American, then saddle the load on the middle class.....Hey, there's a novel idea.

 

We'll see, won't we.

First you have to have a national party if one wants to win elections and take control again. Try working on that part first....
