Sign away and Good Luck.

After the Invasion of Iraq, and now Obama openly attacking the Democratic Party, you might as well be pissing into the wind:

"Post Peak Oil, for many years to come, it will still be a question of the scarcity of necessities, which the political system will always try to drive ahead of the energy scarcity itself, vs. the winding down of luxuries. Political choices will largely dictate this. The elites will try to maintain their luxuries and impose total scarcity upon the people. The people should focus on winding down luxuries in favor of preserving as much material necessity as possible. The very existence of the elites is, of course, the most bloated, wasteful, parasitic, obscene luxury.

Permanent mass unemployment is now a structural imperative under the framework of continued neoliberalism. The political normalization of it has been the main political task of the Obama administration. As difficult as it will be for the system, this is the only way to minimize their political risks. Our task is to maximize their political risks.

Those of you on the left are getting hosed by Barry just like those of us on the right were by Boy Jorge and his asshole father. The carnies are playing a shell game on the rubes.

Is it class envy,or just simple lack of rational thought?

And the only race I ever notice or care about concerning anyone is their membership in the human race.

As for who I vote for or why; you can always posture a bait on that as you do here. But that has no bearing at all on what I do when I fill out and mail in my ballot in this vote by mail state.

Reagan grew the debt and we are paying for it now http://zfacts.com/p/318.html.

Starting with Reagan, it was the Republi”cants” that drove UP the debt. Fact. History.

The debt increased under Reagan due to “voodoo” and “trickle-down” economics. Reagan overspent on the military and cut taxes to the richest folks in the U.S. Bush I kept these policies intact, a continuation of “voodoo” economics. Bush II started 2 wars (not one – 2) that we couldn’t afford and we couldn’t pay for. Under Bush II, we had fiscal failures that lead to the Great Recession. To Bush’s II credit — he tried to prop up the banks — but spent even more doing it. So, yes, the Republi”cants” did drive up the U.S. debt — they are responsible (oops irresponsible

“The 1980 U.S. Senate elections coincided with Ronald Reagan’s election to the Presidency. Reagan’s large margin of victory over incumbent Jimmy Carter pulled in many Democratic voters and gave a huge boost to Republican senate candidates.

The Republicans gained a net of twelve seats from the Democrats, the largest swing since 1958, and gained control of the Senate, 53-46. Majority and minority leaders Robert Byrd and Howard Baker exchanged places. This marked the first time since 1954 that the Republican Party controlled one of the Houses of Congress.” The Democratic party did not win back the Senate until 1986. Learn your history.

“The U.S. House election, 1980 was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1980 which coincided with the election of Ronald Reagan as President. Reagan’s victory also allowed many Republican House candidates to secure election, and the Republicans gained a net of 35 seats from the Democratic Party. The Democrats nonetheless retained a significant majority, unlike the Senate where Republicans gained control of the chamber. Many Democratic congressman from the south (known as “boll weevils”) frequently took conservative stances on issues, allowing Republicans to have a working majority for most of President Reagan’s proposals during his first two years in office.”

Under “trickle-down economics,”[19] due to the significant cuts in the upper tax brackets. There was a massive increase in Cold War related defense spending that caused large budget deficits,[20] the U.S. trade deficit expansion,[20] and contributed to the Savings and Loan crisis,[21] In order to cover new federal budget deficits, the United States borrowed heavily both domestically and abroad, raising the national debt from $700 billion to $3 trillion,[22] and the United States moved from being the world’s largest international creditor to the world’s largest debtor nation.[23] Reagan described the new debt as the “greatest disappointment” of his presidency.[22]”

Reagan GREW government, he doubled the Social Security Tax (from 7.2 – 14.4 %), and almost bankrupted the government. His deregulation got rid of unions without LOWERING costs, and he ruined air traffic control in this nation, made truckers poor without lowering shipping costs by beefing up railroads, and cost us a lot more than he “saved” by giving us the Savings and Loan Crisis.

But propaganda works, and his inquisitive worshippers have been taught by the same corporations that still lie to them today and screw them with more work, shifting the costs of pollution, education and health care onto their backs, and by outsourcing their jobs. They are too damn ignorant to know that Reagan started the war on the Middle Class — the war on drugs and the war on terror were just the puppet show.

Like the spending binges of Reagan that grew government and debt? Is that the problem you refer too?

Or how about how Bush did much the same thing.

Before you call me a hoot, look in the mirror.

You are resoundly loathed by even those ideologically like you here as well as by those closed to 180 degrees from you on the political spectrum.

You remind me how we hated the Revolutionay Communist Youth Brigade (RCYB, also known as the 'Really Confused Young Bourgeoisie') of Bob Avakian's cult as we watched everything the touch turn to ruin before we chased them out of Eugene.

You are self centered, spiteful and a walk through the ocean of your soul would not get your feet wet.

In other words; it sucks to be you. Keep on spinning your wheels, joker. I am much entertained watching your stupid pet tricks in here.
