economics...geepers why spoil a nice pre x mass rally by pointing out that the fed is pushing on a string.

why spoil that giving feeling by pointing out that this stimulus program is being en acted too early .

its throwing good money after bad and will continue to be so until we are willing to let failure fullfill its corse.

the auto industry is a perfect example....

give it all the money in the world and it still wont increase sales.

get ready for years of subsidizing industries and home owners who would better be left to fail ...

its time to draw the line.....

increase gov spending yes...but stop giving money away ...it drives out private investment opportunities and creates dependancy on subsidized credit .

Thanks for the invite. I have a few favorite subjects right now, but you never know what the future will hold.

less ,let me stir the shit a bit,you call me banal yet your posts lack any actuality....and then you go and invite a person to post who is fixated on obama not being a real american.

i really have to laugh.

instead of relying on others to not to post banalities... try it yourself!

come on! there are lots of topics...why not a comment on Bush favoring using federal funds to support our moribund auto industry...

or how about a real awkward question of how we will pay for all this mess.

i have posted my thoughts.....I believe higher taxes are inevitable....

the only responce others have made is the same old laffer curve BS.

many seem to think public debt is a non issue long term.

MY WARNING IS GET READY TO PAY THE BILLS OF THIS BAIL OUT!

and dont worry about the rich leaving....they get taxed were ever the move to...unless the give up their US citizenship.

ps.that would be typical of wishy washy near do wells whose only concern is their own well being.
