Pass the Salt
It's very amusing when I see someone complain about the lack of public works, and then complain about socialism. Here's a clue; ALL public works is socialism. If you don't want to pay the state to clear the roads, then clear your own (%*$& road. Sanilac country farmers have been doing that since the invention of the tractor. Not surprisingly, Sanilac county is over 75% Republican. Republicans need to do the Republican thing and clear your own &%&$ed roads. Quit whining about it, you wusses.
Every road not cleared by the government is one less road cleared by socialism. You should be jumping for joy at the prospect, Nolan.
If you don't want 'big govt.' to do it for you, then do it yourself. Michigans 'big govt.' is shrinking - exactly what Republicans want. You should be glad it's finally happening. So why are Republicans bellyaching? Seems to me, they're too spoiled - wanting others to do it for them but not wanting to pay for it.
And yes, Nolan was whining about having to pay for things he don't like. Now he whines about having to do it himself. He's just a whiny wuss. The difference between a conservative and a wuss is that a conservative does not whine about not having 'big gov' do it for him.
Man up Nolan. And if you can't man up, at least stop 'yer bellyaching.
Retain brainpower?
Your answer only shows your ignorance, demi50. No politician was involved in that decision. The responsible parties were "Moody", and "Savings and Poor"; the two private corporations that rate securities.
Re: FBI raid complaints are unfair
I've listened to several 'tea partiers' express an interest in overthrowing the government - or at least this administration, so they can install a more ideologically acceptable regime. One even followed this sentiment up with the topic of weapons and training.
Even Dan cannot help but to support my point in his own refutation. Note the simultaneous reference to patriotism and opposition of the current administration in the same sentence. Mix that sentiment with the raging emotionalism demonstrated in Dans post and we have strong evidence of my previous point. Is there anyone here who thinks nobody believes more strongly than Dan? The Secret Service has reported that the number of death threats against the president has increased 400% since Obama took office. Pure coincidence or further evidence of my point?
Retain brainpower?
The idea that pay limits would keep the best minds from entering a company is just absurd. What else would they do; manage a McDonalds? I would much rather have an executive who did what he loved than one who simply does it for the money. The latter would sell the company out in a heartbeat and can never be trusted.
It would have been better had a lot of these overpaid executives had decided to manage fast food resturants instead. There, at least, they would not have run our country (indeed, the whole world) into to the ground.
Who's bright idea was it to stamp sub prime loans as equally safe as US. Govt. bonds anyway?
Re: FBI raid complaints are unfair
Wait a minute, Nolan. Just because one wants to overthrow the government does not mean one hates the country. Just look at all the right wingers throwing tea parties. There are elements among them who would love the chance to eliminate the Obama administration and replace them with a conservative government for life. They are of this mind not out of hatred, but claim it for the love of their country. They are superpatriots who would rescind the constitution to "save" their country - as they see it.
You assume they hate their country because they are muslim. But the right wing superpatriots prove this may not be the case. Your assumption may be right; but you could also be wrong about them.
