Six months until the largest tax hike in history...

The Ship of State has become the Boat of State.

So ante up Gents, we're going to spend our way to prosperity. Considering that our currency is based on debt, buying yourself rich makes sense, in a weird, upside down sort of way.

I'll believe it when I see it. And when I see it, I'm thinking it's not going to be the doomsday scenario some of us will make it out to be.

But anyhow, by then we very well may have a Republican Congress that will just let it happen so they can point fingers, bitch and assign blame as they do absolutely nothing to stop it.

Next week the corporate profit numbers will come out. Expectations are that they will be higher than ever. Yet they are sitting on $1.84 trillon at last count. So why are the corporations not providing job growth? Oh no, it is so much easier to blame the Administration and bow low before Goldman Sachs et. al. Just make sure you are facing them when you bow.

The Corporate States of America, please tell me why you support this those of you who vote for it?

I normally bet light when all I have is a pair.

So how much longer do you think the corporocrats can hold off after the November elections?. I tend to think that the public is smart enough to realize that the Republicans would not have done anything, before they were even sworn in, to cause a sudden burst in hiring. They would probably take credit for it by saying that their election gave confidence to the employers. That would be half right. The fat cats would be hoping that a GOP congress would protect their right to screw their employees.

This is what we're going to be electing this November. (And we are going to be electing them this November.)

"Americans think they have a god-given right to a job. They don't." Carly Fiorina, Republican Candidate for Senate, California

“People ask me, what are you going to do to develop jobs in your State? Well that’s not my job as a US Senator." Sharron Angle, Republican candidate for Senate, Nevada

They're telling you who they are, folks! Wake the fuck up!

Absolutely correct, except for the quip in blue.

Obama doesn't get the credit for cutting some of the tax loopholes that promoted the exporting of jobs instead of products.

He is also working on removing cold war restrictions on exports, in order to create and protect high tech jobs.

I think the primary failure of the Obama administration has been in communicating how the measures they are taking are assisting working Americans.

Since the majority of the media is in the hands of the Rupert Murdochs of this world how do you suggest they do that?
