Ever hear the saying, you've got to spend money to make money? ....
The fact is you have to invest and risk money wisely, with absolutely no political agenda driving your investment decision (as in pork and earmarks), to have a chance at making money.
.....Seems Obama is finally waking up to "compromise" and working with opponents instead of "enemies".
I'm not so sure of that. He unabashedly, publically stated who the "enemies" are. He'll cling to those views the way his enemies cling to their guns, religion and so on.
We were not going to fix anything in two years, and let's all remember how LITTLE compromise Obama found from Republicans when he reached out to them, let's all remember the record number of filibusters seen in the Senate, these purely partisan attempts at sabotaging economic recovery have now been rewarded.
Thats what sad, Americans will continue to vote against themselves purely out of spite.
It wasn't spite it was woefully ignorance mixed in with a nice dose of bigotry and shortsightedness.
The Conservative Movement still believes that "Trickle Down Economics" is going to work. What most don't realize is that the "Trickle" is now headed to China, India, Russia, Viet Nam, Brazil, Malaysia and other emerging market nations.
That's Obama's next trick, btw...printing up a billion bucks a month in cash to finance his nonsense...hope you're all ready for a 20% paycut.
The US government DOES NOT control the money supply. Therefore, no US President can control the money supply.
The Federal Reserve controls the money supply and the name FEDERAL is misleading because it is a private entity. Private bankers control the money supply.
Please, turn off the radio and the TV and read on your own.
Despite the historic wins by the Republican /T-party candidates during this past election I am astounded that Barney Frank was re-elected.
How can this be that the very man who claimed Freddie and Fannie were solvent and anyone who said otherwise attacked, could possibly be re-elected to continue his reign of incompetence and guide our economy
I want to know who re-elected this man.
What was the demographic of his electorate?
Who are these people living among us that find Barney a qualified representative.
What are their arguments?
How is possible that the people in Barney's district can be so far removed from any right thinking Dem, Repub or Independant?
Fine, have a different point of view but how is it possible Barney was re-elected??????
As long as these pockets of self effacing electorate show devotion to a man rather than their country, we can never relax our vigilence on our freedom.
Idiots walk among us!
Sorry for that comment but Barney's re-election surpassed the threshold for tolerance for blatantly incompetent legislators.
