The sad part is blah, blah, blah...



given the deep economic hole we're in, without regard to who should be
blamed, how do you propose we cut taxes and spending? how do you
propose, as a society and country, that we treat our senior citizens and
the impoverished? i think you are wrong about obama and his ability and
his worth to our country. ... why do you think principled and
experienced republicans are endorsing obama?

When you have little money in the family account, do you spend your way
out of debt?

no, i work harder, collect accounts due, etc. but it's not really the
same thing or even a good analogy in my opinion. again...how do you
propose we cut taxes and spending under the existing circumstances, and
what do we do about our seniors and poor?

jeff

But the Pol's want to spend us outta debt. Most seniors are not destitute.
Seniorhood comes with a 10% discount a lot of places, but as a group they
are the wealthy demographic in the country. And poor is realitive. Look at
our poor, lots have cars, Color TV, and are fat. I owned a business a lot
of years ago, and we hired casual labor to clean the storage yard at times.
Most were poor, but they knew every angle to milk the system. They did not
want to work. Those can die for all my sympathy. I want society to help
those who can not help themselves. Those with a true handicap. Mental
problems, health problems, not those who park in the handicapped slot,
because they have a sticker because they weigh 400 pounds and can not walk.
Not those who dropped out of school because they were bored. Was in Costa
Rica early this year. 99% literacy rate. School is mandatory. You should
be in school and are not and the cop sees you on the street. You are picked
up. Here the parents do not even know where the kid is a lot of time.
Example: Oakland police picked up a kid out in the streets at midnight. 12
years old. Parents were upset that the police were picking on the kid. Sad
is it not?

The government can collect owed money, but they can not work hard / longer
for more income. Or they can raise prices. If you try to raise your price
excessively your business fails. Same with the government, they raise taxes
excessively and lots of business's fail
