you are either a young women or a very young man,as i once was.

all i can say is neither of us knew anything about human nature when we thought these thoughts.

my excuse is i was spending other people's money…..a drug in itself.

i sure hope u and obama and the rest will grow up before its too late,tho for most things,it already is.

Re: Wm. F. Bronner: you are a good man to know. I agree with everything that you wrote. I think that we need more women running the country to get out of the wars that we are in and too balance our U.S. checkbook. Men have been in control too long; it is not a liberal vs conservative issue, it is a man issue. Men control almost all of government, religion and business; what a fine mess all of those are. Men want to control womens bodies; how would men like it if women were to control mens bodies? Wouldn't like it very much. Religion to control all others. I don't buy religion and never did. Big business is interested only in big business. What is good for big business is not necessarily good for people.

We just can't give up squeaking if we want things to change. We have to be bold and vocal.

Even if one believes that the US has the 8,100 tons of gold that the treasury claims(I certainly do not,it is probably in the same country that Bernie Madoff's money went to),the total value of it is only around 250 billion dollars,it wouldn't put a dent in our deficit.
To put it simply,WE ARE DOOMED to experience the most uncomfortable depression and transformation that our nation has ever seen-with the possible exception of the turmoil from the civil war.
In fact,it may very well bring about another civil war.

liberals? it´s a one party system pal. the republican and the democrats talk one way but ultimately vote in concert. the US is Corprotocracy, not a Democracy.

don´t waste your time with partisan politics. it´s a distraction propagated by the media.

Clinton´s NAFTA and repeal of the Glass Steagall Act did as much damage to the US as Bush´s bogus war on terror. the Republicans under Bush have wasted a generations worth of economic security to make the likes of Brown Root, Carlysle Group and Haliburton significantly richer.

jmho of course.

Clinton capitualated to Repub congress to attempt balancing the budget. Dems will never do it with out being forced. Clinton's Treasury Sec was a former head of Goldman's Sachs. Bush put Paulson in because Schumer would let him get through. The last Repub budget had a deficit of about 200 B and declining. Bama will have a 2Tril deficit easily next year. This government and president are the single most disgraceful, incompetent group to run this country. Anyone who votes for anyone who would keep Speaker Pelosi in power is an absolute foo.

Repubs have been bad but you have to be out of your mind if you think anything has ever been as bad for the US as this current government and the moron Obama.

Yes, on paper, Clinton left office with the tiniest sliver of a surplus. That was the presentation. Yet, the debt grew that year. How is that possible? Every year that I spend less than I make ( a surplus) my debt either decreases or my net worth increases. Answer: It was a misrepresentation, which is a Legalease for a lie. Clinton lie? Impossible! What is the definition of surplus?

This situation has been coming on since the Reagan administration lowerd taxes and increased spending.They also removed controls from the financial system so it is easy for their elites to become crooks. The fault lies with the American people who trust the experts instead of common sense . The two party system has failed us and now it is too late to change.The Republicans have always done the opposite of what they promise and there are powers beyond the scene who decide our future.One thing we can do is learn from history is that nothing is permanent. Our Golden Age has come to an end and can never return.The demons have returned to deceieve the masses that we are entitled to all the good thing in life with no obligation.
