look keep the ultra as_holes in the economic world close to existing laws and send them to jail, including FRANK and DODD, and give incentives to keep jobs here and create the new ones we need to take the world to the future... just don't try the failed economic kneejerk reactionary policies of the dems that have failed every time they have been tried, including extending the last depression for over 10 years (read the forgotten man - written by an economist) and carters admin crushing the economy to the brink, I was there i remember... thelast time we had a balanced budget was when the real republicans passed a resolution and forced clinton into signing it... we can get there again with jobs and freedom to spend when and where you want to... I will bet you a dollar right now that yours and my taxes will rise and jobs will diminish and prices rise if BHO is elected, I as a trucker will experience very lean times as people will not have jobs or enough money to buy things and fuel under BHO carbon taxe will cost to much for the middle class and also force frieght to caost much more to move... we will see 7 and 8 dollar a gallon fuel/gas just like europe...
when prices rise so much and taxes take more than a normal family can afford the next civil war will start - but hey according to you at least we can stand in line for medical care for free...

Kurt,

Government better? Over 30 trillion for welfare and it just keeps growing.

Social Security? Total nightmare. Have seen what should be a suppliment for people's retirement, turn into a ""right" to the social security money for druggies, alchies, and other various supposed sickness'.

Want to see how socialized medicine and drugs work? Go to England. Once when there found that there was one doctor for three hospitals and you had to wait for a couple of days for certain drugs.

The bail out? All of the leaders in the house and senate made a bundle... and so did bush... and so did the CEO's of the various companies.

Writing stuff on the internet? It's getting scary. If Obama wins this election, with a liberal control of house and senate you can look for the "fairness" doctrine where there will be NO disputing opinions, NO right to own a weapon, being afraid of what you say to your neighbors, the press will say what the govt wants them to say, (kind'a what they do anyway, but your favorite radio station where you can hear the mostly truth will be gone.), ...

You aren't going to change my mind and I'm not going to change yours, so this is sorta' pointless.

prediction: Obama will present his Birth Certificate when he comes back from Hawaii. "Look what I found at grammies house!!!"

now they want your 401K:

House Democrats Contemplate Abolishing 401(k) Tax Breaks | workforce.com

Quote:
Powerful House Democrats are eyeing proposals to overhaul the nation’s $3 trillion 401(k) system, including the elimination of most of the $80 billion in annual tax breaks that 401(k) investors receive.

House Education and Labor Committee Chairman George Miller, D-California, and Rep. Jim McDermott, D-Washington, chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee’s Subcommittee on Income Security and Family Support, are looking at redirecting those tax breaks to a new system of guaranteed retirement accounts to which all workers would be obliged to contribute.
The "Fairness Doctrine" will return:
ABQNews - 1:45pm -- Bingaman Backs Return of 'Fairness Doctrine'

Quote:
New Mexico Democrat tells KKOB's Jim Villanucci he wants to restore 'balance' to talk radio.
Sen. Jeff Bingaman, D-N.M., said right out loud in an interview with 770 KKOB Radio's Jim Villanucci what many of his fellow Democrats have been reluctant to say out loud -- that he favors the restoration of the so-called "Fairness Doctrine" that would require a balancing of viewpoints on the largely right-tilting world of talk radio.
And BHO style heathcare, went broke and was ended in Hawaii after a whole seven months:
southchild » Blog Archive » Socialized Medicine Failure in Hawaii

Quote:
Gov. Linda Lingle’s administration cited budget shortfalls and other available health care options for eliminating funding for the program. A state official said families were dropping private coverage so their children would be eligible for the subsidized plan.

“People who were already able to afford health care began to stop paying for it so they could get it for free,” said Dr. Kenny Fink, the administrator for Med-QUEST at the Department of Human Services. “I don’t believe that was the intent of the program.”
this plan only covered childern, imagine the absolute failure when you try to cover everyone.

Then you raise import tariffs
