While the "bailout" has some good ideas that should be used, overall I feel we are throwing gasoline on a fire. Slow burning gasoline. A recession will happen, a recession needs to happen, this will just make it worse when it does. The market must correct.

One video to check out on YouTube is "Burning Down the House" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NU6fuFrdCJY
Quite an interesting take on explaining how we got here. Seems that legislation that the Carter Administration enacted (Community Reinvestment Act) is at the root. Add into that "enhancements" made under the Clinton Administration which brought about the explosion of sub-prime lending. Unfortunately, the proper checks weren't put into place, and too many banks (wanting to make lots of money) started lending to people that really didn't qualify for the loans. And here we are.
Hopefully, Congress will have the huevos to put the proper regulations in place to avoid this type of fiasco in the future. -
Expansion of the CRA is one of the few things about President Clinton that I do not like.

I like Barak too but Hilary had experience.
Anyone who votes for John Mccain is an idiot. I often say how Arizona doesnt suffer from the bad economy, and it's true.. True to the extent that McCain seriously said the whole thing was "in our heads". He wont be able to pull us out of a slump he's never experienced. He leads a very sheltered life. He doesnt know about the 500$ houses in other states. And Palin is not only a woman, but alaskan, and Im sure Ive already expressed my distaste for alaskans.Superhero! -
People get tastier as you move south. South Americans are delicious.

AyaHu: Anyone who votes for John Mccain is an idiot.
Well...I guess that makes me an idiot. An educated idiot, but an idiot none the less. Obama is an excellent orator, but way too liberal in his social, economic, domestic and foreign policy views. I could not in good conscience vote for a candidate that supports raising taxes, is pro-abortion, and does not understand the potential threat that leaders such as Ahmadinejad pose.
I "hang around" with several military veterans - many that served in Vietnam. They have a sound understanding of McCain's perspective and what he went through. Oops...sorry AyaHu, they're all Texans. I know you like us as much as you do Alaskans.
Sorry, but I must respectfully disagree that Obama is the "best" choice for President. He is not. His lack of experience and perspective would be a detriment. -
There are over six billion people on this planet, I fear we never have had the best man for the job, and probably never will.
-
Out of all the candidates I think my parents dog would be better. She can and does open door by herself making her much more inventive than any of the candidates.
I hate the elections I think a better way of solving issues is to put a kind of draft in place for policy changing political government work. Everyone with enough education on a meaningful iq test gets put into a raffle type deal. The test will also determine if you get whatever degree you were going for (you take a real life evaluation test to prove your decision making skills in your field for each degree you apply for). than each month there would be a draft for a new section of government so each section will rotate out about 6 months each. This will make it so everyone will get there say as long as they are intelligent and have proven abilities in making good sound decisions and a us citizen.Looking for my head ............... yeah the eight valve one yeah .... -

I never said Obama was the best choice, I said Mccain is an idiotic one.
You do not live in Arizona, or know him, how can you possibly know how experienced he is?
1 in 5 troops come back from the military with mental instability which leads to long term mental handicaps. Mccain loves showing off what a POW he is. "WASHINGTON — Roughly one in every five U.S. troops who have survived the bombs and other dangers of Iraq and Afghanistan now suffers from major depression or post-traumatic stress, an independent study said Thursday. It estimated the toll at 300,000 or more."
And by the way, I lived in Texas, remember???? And my older sister lives there, remember??? She's a full blood texan, she was born there, raised there for a hefty portion of her life until we were born. You like to put a lot of words where they never were, which makes you, yes, an idiot.Superhero! -
Im sorry but I could never let an alaskan woman be in such a high position in office. It's folly, even if Mccain were the best, I wouldnt be able to bring myself to actually vote for him. Because of her.Superhero!
-
AyaHu - Yes, I remember you lived in Texas. I was trying to inject a little humor, but it obviously wasn't taken that way. Lighten up. Although I might agree that neither candidate is the best/ideal choice, based on what I stated earlier about Obama (i.e. pro-abortion stance, tax increases, not understanding the real threat that countries like Iran pose), I can say with a clear conscience that McCain would be a wiser choice.
As to McCain's experience, he has served in both the House and Senate under President's Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton and Bush Jr. and worked with all. That, and his military experience, I believe gives him a better rounded view of both US and international affairs. -
Wait... you dont like him because he's pro abortion? Are you a woman? You shouldn't have a choice to vote on a subject like that, how could you possibly not be pro-abortion if you are a man? You could not possibly understand what would drive an abortion, you could never make the decision to keep a baby that you are not carrying, so I hope you arent implying youd vote based on something like that.
Im anti birth control abortion, pro abortion, however.
I like friendly debate, so if you have any thoughts on the matter or any others go for it.
I dont think his military experience makes him rounded, I think it makes him mentally unstable. And biased.Superhero! -
"I'm anti birth control abortion, pro abortion, however."
Burr?
I'm for first trimester abortions. I can understand how some people are against normal abortions, but the stance Sarah Palin takes is psychotic. She would be against an abortion even if the woman/girl was raped and carrying the child of the attacker. That's just wrong. -
It's very easy to be pro-life, and yes, I am an man. The world view that I hold says that life is precious, and that life begins at conception. Next time you see a newborn, keep in mind that is what gets aborted. It's not a blob, or an inanimate object, it is a human being. And yes, I will vote for a candidate that is pro-life over one that is pro-murdering unborn children.
AyaHu, if we take your view that McCain's military experience makes him mentally unstable, does that mean that ANY leader who has military experience is also unstable? Would you say that about George Bush Sr., the late JFK, Eisenhower? As to bias, would you agree that we all have our biases? Obama has his.
As to Sasquatch's comments about Sarah Palin's stance, there are arguments on both sides of the pro-life fence regarding abortions if a woman is raped. One side says that an abortion would be justified as a means of self-defense. The other side reminds us that it is possible to put the child up for adoption. -
remember if you are aborting donate to t-cell research it will make people live longer and create bigger over population problems. I know human season is now officially open. Remember with high population areas like cities, i would use a pistol otherwise a rifle, and for those of us with lousy shot, a sawed off shotgun. Remember the lean ones will be chewier after cooking and remember to thoroughly disinfect any homeless before smoking, we want to keep a healthy population.
abortion: I don't give a crap
taxes: I found a way around them legally tax laws are so ugly and useful
the wars: who cares we are now stuck in both places if we leave either of them they will both get screwed up again.
the market: I'm moving to canada or europe possibly germany.Looking for my head ............... yeah the eight valve one yeah .... -
yes and than we have more screwed up children that mommy didn't want to take care of. putting kids up for adoption is not an answer. the answer is in my opinion if you don't meet a certain level in society and intelligence you get surgery so you can't reproduce. This will not only reduce the population problem but strengthen the human race as a whole.Looking for my head ............... yeah the eight valve one yeah ....
-
Suzukiman: the answer is in my opinion if you don't meet a certain level in society and intelligence you get surgery so you can't reproduce.
Can we start with you? -
susukiman - BTW, if you learned anything from history, you'd realize that your view is quite similar to that of Adolf Hitler. Growing up, one of our neighbors was a survivor of the Holocaust. I learned at an early age from her the potential results of such thinking as yours.

Adoption is one solution, but few would take it. There's the inherent risks that come with pregnancy, plus the physical toll it takes on the body. Imagine the shame of carrying the child for nine months, a constant reminder of what happened. The emotional and mental abusive may end up being worse than the actual crime that was committed. I feel sorry for all the women out there that have had to endure something along these lines. -
you know i really really should get a copy of mein kampf. but truly where would we be if Hitler didn't do what he did remember he is so far arguably the most influential person the modern world has seen. I'll give you an example frys would still be a grocery stand egghead would be a bran new company and people would be using tubes still. heck there would be less pollution control for cars even.Looking for my head ............... yeah the eight valve one yeah ....
-
Suzukiman - your logic is seriously flawed.
Sasquatch - I'd agree with your statement. I did a quick Google to find out the percentage of pregnancies that result from rape/incest. Stastics are sketchy at best, but the best WAG is somewhere around 1%. Please don't misinterpret what I'm saying. The perps of rape/incest deserve to be punished to the fullest extent of the law...and then some. My point is that the pro-abortion proponents will always site this as a reason to support abortion. Statistically, it doesn't work. -
how is it flawed? If ww2 didn't happen technology would not have advanced anywhere near as much.Looking for my head ............... yeah the eight valve one yeah ....

I murder children ever month. Those are POTENTIAL lifeforms, potential humans. I lost like three of them last month, bless their unborn souls.

Yes.
As to bias, would you agree that we all have our biases? Obama has his.
Yes, but I like Mexico, and no mexicans have ever shot at or attacked me at all, and therefore, I hold no grudge and actually harbour a deep love for their country. Most people (And mccain is most people) cannot look their attacker in the eye and feel love for them. You cant REALLy get over the idea of a PEOPLE, an army of this type of people trying to kill you, killing your best friend, torturing you, capturing you, whatever it is. Its human.

A life in the city or state custody is a life worse than death. You may not know it, or have no experience with it, but I had a friend long ago who went from foster home to foster home, her mother was a mentally retarded drug addict who gave her up for adoption. While I knew her she was molested by her foster father. That wasnt including however many she'd been through. Not just that, but imagine trying to actually GROW UP or BE RAISED in a foster home or a group home? I wish more people would be able to face the realities of just what is it like to be in state custody. I could rant all day on that.

Thats what I mean, people who have abortions cause their boyfriend got them pregnant, once, twice, three times, thats BIRTH CONTROL. Abortion isnt birth control, its for people whos best friends take them on a camping trip, their first camping trip, drug their SODA CAN, and their best friend's dad AND said best friend take turns raping her. Its for births caused by that.
It's also for whore bitch crackhead chicks who's babies would have lives worse than death. Ive met children who were forced to grow up that way, and all they do is commit suicide. Or attempt to, since I met them after they'd been accidentally found. Hah!
A life worse than death IS worse than death.
Which is why I am pro abortion.
;D
Also, I would like to take a moment to point out McCain lives in AZ, in a rich area, in a NICE ASS HOUSE, with his millionaire wife. He claimed the recession was IN OUR HEADS until they finally had to pass that bill, remember? He has NO IDEA what its like to be out on the streets right now. Obamas not much better, either, but the way Mccain lives disgusts me. He cheated on his first wife for this chick, he's like a male golddigger.Superhero! -
I'm for abortions like how we slaughter cows for food. They didn't want a child so why force it. Kids are products of love. Yeah its murder but so is letting people die of poor health because they don't have insurance or can't afford it. Here we are about to spend a trillion on banks and we cant even help out our own people. Trying to fix the economy will just make it worse for the people who already poor. I'm not poor I am actually well off but even well off people depend on poorer people. They run the show. In fact it's the exact reason why were are in this economic mess anyway.

Damn straight. Plus potential babies dont have earthly obligations like KIDS to keep them alive or wanting to live.
The world has always been messed up, nothings ever perfect. In the terms of government.Superhero! -
They say when camping, "Leave the place better than how it was when you got there." People should apply that to their lives. When I die, I want to be able to know the world is a better place because of me.
