Sandy Hook Gun Control Aftermath: Ideologues Butting Heads
There are a lot of things that I don't particularly like. Guns are one. So are cars and many mechanical and electrical devices too numerous to mention. But unfortunately, most of those devices are necessary to a great extent in today's world, or they at least provide a... Romney's economic plan: Fix bayonets and pass the Wonder Bread
The basis for Mitt Romney's economic plan is that trickle-down economics works. No doubt trickle-down economics works, but the problem is that it only works for guys like Romney! In other words trickle-down works for about 1 to 2 percent of the American population.... U.S. unemployment rate drops to 7.8%! How did that happen?
There's much confusion, many questions, and even conspiratorial sentiment, regarding the September 2012 U.S. unemployment rate. And the confusion, questions, and conspiratorial sentiment are quite understandable.... Weaponized Keynesianism
There are many, many, inconsistencies in the Republican Party's economic claims and purported fixes. One glaring inconsistency is the Republicans' claim that Keynesian economics, in the form of fiscal stimulus, doesn't work. However the Republicans have been implementing... Taxes Paid By U.S. Taxpayers Vs. Taxes Paid By U.S. Corporations
Throughout the 64 year period from 1947–2010, Individual American tax payers have paid over three-and-a-half times more in taxes to the Federal Government than have American corporations. Total individual... The BS Pertaining To The American Economy Needs To Stop!
I am sick and tired of all the BS re the U.S. economy being floated around out there, as well as all the finger pointing and how it can be fixed. I've been listening to defacto Republican spokemen such as... 186 views | 2 recommendations | 2 comments
U.S. Budget Deficit vs. GDP
The budget deficit is approximately $1.6 trillion. The debt (amount of money owed by the government) is almost 10 times that amount. The budget deficit rose dramatically during the height of the financial... Does America Suffer From Collective OCD Or Something Far Worse?
What bothers me, is that the American people have gotten many wake up calls throughout the past few years, still many of them remain asleep. What's really scary is that we've seen how our law maker's failure to exercise proper oversight in conjunction with the "free... Paul Krugman And The Cut And Paste Climate Of Hate
A white man shot x amount of people in such and such a place. No doubt he’s a right wing anti-government extremist. He did it because Michele Bachman, Glen Beck, Bill O’Reilly, Fox News, the Tea Party, along... 564 views | 4 recommendations | 25 comments
Scenes From Florida Dec. 29, 2010
While much of the nation is snowed under, parts of Florida appear as though it's Fall instead of winter. I took these neighborhood pics early this morning. Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas! Happy New Year! Let's hope it's a good one! The Wall Street Shuffle! That's What's Wrong With The U.S.Economy
I venture to say that American truck drivers have a better pulse on the economy than do many, if not most, economists and financial experts. That's not to say that truck drivers can provide a mathematical model... American Employment Skewed Toward White Collar, Clerical, Health
The American economy in its present form is unsustainable. Indeed it's a false economy--a voodoo economy--based on thin paper and false hopes and promises. Every month, throughout the past three years,...

Republicans Still Singing The One Note Tax Samba And Droning On
As a one-time recovering Republican and now a small "r" republican/independent my two cents here, for what it's worth, is as follows: the Republicans would have us believe that reducing taxes for ... Unemployment Rate High For Millions of First Time Job Seekers
Since April 2009, over a million first-time American job seekers have been looking for a job every month but there are no jobs out there for them.Unemployment Rate Climbs In November To 9.8 PercentAmerica's Economy...
