As you won't answer.
The Waste is the billions of dollars being spent in the US by the Government. Some of it borrowed. This inflated the US economy to such a degree that everything looked rosy. Most were living the American dream, on borrowed money. Until a pin burst the bubble and it all came crashing down. Or should I say greedy unregulated gamblers, gambling with other peoples money, brought the system crashing down.
The 1% did all right, they got masses of money and as the World economies burned they sat and fiddled.
Now the Republicans want to cut spending and throw millions out of jobs. Or is it only 10,000s? What ever it is, it will be a huge number. In public and private sectors.
But don't worry about Minte.
Because him and his family part of the 1% who never get screwed. The 47% well he doesn't give a fuck about them, so long as someone waves a cut in his taxes. He would vote for a monkey or Adolf Hitler. If teachers get sacked, it won't effect him. He's got enough to send his kids to private school, if Medicare gets cut, he doesn't care, he's got enough to go private. So it's fuck you poor people, I'm all right.
Maybe they should cut the farm subsidies and import food, then his tyre factory might be fucked. Cut oil subsidies so you pay more for gas.
But he loves to spend all his time on GFY debating with us. I own a car business, Skoda you might of heard of it.
Personally I don't think you own anything but a few web sites. No businessman of your imagined magnitude would bother himself with GFY. And no I won't put you on ignore. I love seeing you try to debate and losing.

For the rest. The problem the US faces isn't unique to there. It's the same in the EU and two are so closely linked, what happens here effects the US and visa versa. We have to bring back the wealth we exported to the Third World. I say we, it was in fact the 1%. A EU factory worker never sent his plant to China, it was his boss. Because in China a worker gets 10% of what he did.
The only way to get the wealth back is in educating and investing in our children's future. And making sure those who don't have the skills to fill the advanced jobs of tomorrow are not cast aside. It will take a combination of Governments and business to work together. It can't be solved by either on their own. And yes Minte, it will cost you money today.
