You gotta problem with oxen?

I was just paraphrasing the video. Do you dispute the validity of my paraphrasing?

Also, People who say or think that 47% of people in the US don't pay taxes are really really stupid.

Romney says he'll never convince 47% of the population to take responsibility for their lives. He was not talking about just the election. Maybe he misspoke, but he basically said that he will not be able to relate to half the population, which tells me he doesn't care about those people and...

To Romney middle class is 250K, maybe even 500k, or a million or more, the top end of that range under his perspective might surprise us.

I told you guys, Mother Jones is doing the best print reporting in our country.

Just look at the quotes that this thread is about, along with vague references his side has made about "lowering the rate and broadening the base". It sure looks that way to me. Don't worry Mr. 1 Percenter, he's on your side.

It was a part of a plot line in at least one popular movie I've seen replayed a lot on TV this year.

Calm down old man.

I agree, but the US would have still needed a means of avoiding contagion. The free market was not up to the task.

How can there be a major war? There is no parity of major powers. No country could go head to head against the US and NATO. Any war would by definition be a minor war. Russia and China ( or India) I guess is theoretically possible, but I don't see why. or are you thinking about Iran and Israel.

Yes, many were saved. My guess is there is a good chance that many of the 19 financial institutions and 3 auto companies would have been b/k, (Am I missing some? ) but once half of those went, there was a fear that many others would follow like dominos, unless the government did something. The...

I would like to have seen lots of Chapter 11s for other reasons, but if you are suggesting that the government ruined the companies they bailed out, you are being ridiculous.

LNN makes irrigation systems

SPY opens Monday at 146.94

Some farmers can get government subsidized crop insurance, so I wonder how much incentive they have to invest in this technology.
