loco, I let you continue to moan and groan everyday about Romney/Perry, since it doesn't matter to many of us which one displaces the TOTAL FAILURE that you still support.


And, Kenneth and I will continue to remind you the economy began to crash from the time that Bush II took over the administration from Clinton during which time we had a surplus. Then, with a lack of regulations on Wall Street Banks, we had the financial crash in September 2088. Just check the charts if you do not believe us. I am sure you realize that in economics, unemployment is a lagging indicator. Unlike you, I am a capitalist, and have been buying specific stocks at these low prices. The old expression, "buy when the blood is running on the street," is very appropriate!!


Only when the labor cost in the other countries rise to the level of those in the US will manufacturing return to the US. A retired Missouri AFT head stated to me a few years ago, "the US can not compete with the labor cost (wages and benefits) of other countries. Plus, other countries (China and India) are graduating more kids with higher "skill sets" (engineers) to fill those position. Why, as a capitalist, would I want to invest in the US when I can have greater profits in another country.


loco, it is not a very pretty picture for our kids and grandkids.

I view the Republicans in control with as much alarm as I do the Democrats in control. I prefer hopeless gridlock.
