Oh come on...we have been doing it for decades in the "defense" industry, the agro corporate business and for the past decade in the secrecy, security business and Obama saves the American Auto Industry and its millions of jobs at a very, very crucial time in our economic history and your crowd goes nutty.


It is ALWAYS unhealthy. I have been against government stimulus for ANY business at all times. If you are talking about my crowd, my crowd has always found government stimulus to be BAD. And it is bad at many levels. First is the overall economy, but the second is that it encourages corruption and abuse. And this is something that we have seen in the defense industry as well as the agri industry. And let's not forget about the green energy boondoggles.

If you are going to talk about my crowd, at least get my crowd properly defined. My crowd hates government meddling in business. Even if it is something that is supposed to help it.

Republicans keep funding our "defense" industries as if the Cold War and the Soviet Union still lived! We create weapons that are better and cost more than our last round of weapons, but the only one's we "compete" with now is ourselves! No one else wastes money on that.

It's insane.
