And furthermore, you are right about the time thing. But it is ALOT longer than four years. This economy has been brewing for the last half century, since the beginning of the welfare state. The cumulative effects of paying hundreds of millions of people TRILLIONS of dollars to do nothing, has finally caught up with us. And there is hell to pay. We are now almost a carbon copy of a European socialist country. That is a fact. Reversing direction is not going to be easy.

Reagan didn't want to spend the money? You're not going to blame it on his alzheimer's are you? Do you understand how the legislative process works? Here, hopefully this isn't too complex for you to understand:
I like a good debate, but some of the shit that gets posted on this board is so insanely idiotic that it doesn't even warrant a thoughtful response. I'm not trying to single you out, but this post is just riddled with bullshit, it's completely ridiculous. Same type of uninformed, knee-jerk response without a shred of accurate information to back it up that gets posted twenty times a day here. Just blind ideology.
