HOLY CARP!!!

Because $800 billion just wasn't enough...
Why is it that every time a liberal has a plan, it involves spending money they don't have? |

Identifying narcissists isn't difficult. Just look for the person who is constantly fishing for compliments and admiration while breaking down over even the slightest bit of criticism. We have the freedom to choose our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences. | |

It is an article of faith held by liberal Democrats that a slow economy requires massive government intervention when, in fact, the opposite is true. The only thing government can really grow is more government. |

1. What do you mean "we" (not "they," it's "We the People," not "They the People") don't have the money? As long as "we" produce more than what our government spends (GDP ex government spending is greater than government spending), "we" have the money. It's simple math, simple concept. It's just matter of whether we want our government to spend 10%, 50%, or 90% of what we produce. May be you just want to say "spending more than what the government collects"? In that case, 2. Every Congress and every administration that have ever produced and signed onto a budget with a deficit by definition spent more than they collected, and ALL of them have done so since Ronald Reagan -- EXCEPT when Bill Clinton was President when the government took in more than it spent,it had a surplus! You can decide whether to classify Bill Clinton as a liberal. |

And look where it has gotten us - $14 trillion in the hole. Just because it's ALWAYS been that way, we should continue it? Belt tightening is a bitch, huh Ax. |

I'm at the 10% end, and it's pretty obvious that Ax is at the 90% end.Frankly I'd be quite happy if Ax would contribute 90% of his earnings, so that I could keep 90% of mine. |
