What happened to all of the doom and gloom economic threads?

Always blame the rich and productive.

Always!



Never hands out for handouts... They're the morally superior man!

Prescient:

But Germans certainly believe that they have played by all the postwar rules. They paid $2 trillion for their own reunification without asking for handouts. The European Union turned into a Ponzi racket in which poorer southern members cooked their books to get German cash -- only when caught to blame their indebtedness on German mercantilism and callous, export-driven profit mongering. Perpetual war guilt decreed that Germans must be apologetic about their own success and discreet about the reasons for others' failures.

Beneath the recent election of a socialist president in France and the rise of various extremists in southern Europe is a common theme. After four years of austerity, no poor European country still believes that it can -- or should -- sacrifice to pay back much of what it borrowed from a far wealthier Germany, which supposedly undermined the European Union by not spending and borrowing more.

Of course, the EU always claims it will survive. Of course, all 21st-century Europeans know that nationalism and military preparedness are the fossilized notions of more primitive peoples.

But let's wait and see what happens when Europeans not only default on lots of German-backed loans, but also defiantly announce that they should not have been given them in the first place -- and thus should not have to them back at all. Injury for Germany is one thing; insult on top of it might be quite another.

History is quietly whispering to us in our age of amnesia: "I would not keep poking the Germans unless you are able to deal with them when they wake up."

He did cut it.


The original plan was for 2 trillion in spending but those evil Republicans found a way to defeat an absolute majority and slashed it to a mere trillion which is why we haven't recovered...

Well that and Greece.

Greece is the word...

Obama laid off millions

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Shares of Hewlett-Packard /quotes/zigman/229301/quotes/nls/hpq HPQ +0.32% were up slightly on Thursday, bucking a tech sector retreat, on a media report that the company is planning a major round of layoffs. A report from Bloomberg said the Palo Alto, Calif.-based corporation is considering reducing its workforce by 8% or as many as 25,000 jobs. An H-P spokesman said the company does not comment on speculation. The Nasdaq Composite Index /quotes/zigman/123127 COMP -1.43% was down more than 1% at 2,837.

Romney Registers Personal Best 50% Favorable Rating
Up from 39% in February, but one of lowest for a presumptive nominee
by Jeffrey M. Jones
PRINCETON, NJ -- Fifty percent of Americans now have a favorable opinion of presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, up from 39% in February and his highest by 10 percentage points. His current 41% unfavorable rating, though, leaves him with a net score of +9, after being at -8 in February. In roughly half of the 28 measurements Gallup has taken of Romney since 2006, more Americans have viewed him negatively than positively.

That's not from a soros source so it is a lie.

 

[mercury14]

Link?

http://www.cbpp.org/cms/index.cfm?fa=view&id=155

Looks like the president is mandated by the Congressional Budget Act of 1974. That link shows the process, which starts with the president submitting a budget by the first Monday in February. Even if the Pres and his party have no plans to pass the budget or even bring it to a vote it still has to be submitted.

I just had a visit from the Ministry Of Truth warning me that posting anything detrimental to the interests of Big Brother was a violation of the national security.

They do get annoying sometimes. It happens to everybody. When you need to worry is when the Ministry of Peace tells you we're fighting them over there so we don't have to fight them here.

Hey dumbass why did you edit out the part of that thread where I clarified that the president doesn't have to submit a budget for MOST government spending, due to the fact that he doesn't have to submit a budget for congressional mandatory spending programs?

Because taking me in context shows I was right, doesn't it?
