The Party of "NO" is Destroying America

.. because it is business ... and if that program makes you money, that should be all there is to it ..

How about your own posts \????

So true marketsmart, the middle class is running scared.

I would like to be able to say the politicians (either party) "don't get it", but, they do "get it". They just don't care. By and large they only care about themselves and lining their own pockets. The vast majority of us middleclass folks tend to be hard working, law abiding, tax payers who believe in the senators and congressmen we elected.

They told us their plans, they listened to our ideas, they smiled, they shook our hands, they kissed our babies. Then, a high % of these pricks turned on us like cross dogs.

All that being said, the middle class is running scared, they don't know who to believe.

I understand your thoughts Minte but realistically it's just another forum. I would never make a business decision based on someones personal feelings. Especially their personal opinions about something as volatile as religion, politics, or abortion.

Flip side of the coin though is this: I wouldn't want a company rep expressing personal opinions about any highly volatile subject.

It's all about the money, you're both at fault IMO.

Minte, I think you are taking this thread a bit seriously, sir, imho. I see your point and you have been here much longer than I, but I don't think this is a personal attack on you or anything. Of course I cannot talk for the OP, but even you would have to admit that these times that we are living in are "interesting" to say the least.

I respect a large majority of people here and sometimes it is very cool to get everyone's perspectives on issues, etc. On the other side of the coin, you, of course, bring up a very valid point, but still... Just my 2 cents. Hope your well!

FINALLY someone understands the way things should be!

I say we go full "law of the jungle" like nature intended. I'd like to personally get the party started by riding around Vegas in my jeep with my shotgun and taking out all the bums begging at every redlight.

I know, I know...but I'm willing to sacrifice my time for the good of all.

Hi Minte, do I know you in real life at all? I was just curious what site you owned that can send millions of hits to programs. I'd like to be friends.

What site do you have?

IMO the effect of message board flaming is marginal. Industries like high fashion or hollywood, where insulting one person can get you blacklisted, that can be a fiasco. But the adult community & GFY posters do not come across to me as sensitive. If a player is wealthy & can decline to work with programs over a board slight, so be it. I dont however think our business is so sensitive.

but even at the margins, i would agree there is no upside to negativity, or losing your cool when communicating on the web.

You've been around a while. So you know who a lot of the players are. Do you wonder why you never see them posting here. What they know is that a lot of people read GFY to see who NOT to do business with.

People that have consistently made money since the beginning don't stop doing business with someone because of personality. They do a simple bit of research and never start.

As i've already said. I haven't left a single cent on the table in nearly 14 years. There are mulitple sources for everything.

Big surprise, internet forum troll calls someone else retarded.

no need to sugar coat shit and make it sound good like the democrats do... I am realist ... if you didn;t see this coming by voting this guy in office I don't know what to say..... all I can say is I tried to warn everybody but no one listened now they regret it.....

Its not a spending problem, its a revenue problem . Cant have a bunch of wars , save the banking industry . While having some of the lowest tax rates this country ever had.

If u are rich times are good. You think under mccain it would of been different

Since nobody else responded to your insanely idiotic posts with any seriousness, I guess morons like you don't like to accept truth.

tony did you see my post about this next months August expenditures for the govt?

In August the U.S. will take in 174 BILLION dollars in revenue. But it will SPEND 303 BILLION dollars!!!!!
And they do that EVERY month.

YES, it IS a spending problem my friend.

And the answers they are coming up with is to cut the budget by 4 trillion dollars over TEN FUCKING YEARS!!!! That's only 400 billion per year! They need to stop spending that 4 trillion NOW.

If you or I are horribly in debt...we don't keep SPENDING more money and going further into debt. Nor do we borrow more money to pay for the money we already borrowed.

No...common sense tells you to STOP spending and start paying your debts. But it's easy for Congress to ignore that...they are spending money they never earned. Money they TAKE from us.

without gov spending my friend there wouldnt of been funding for the creation of the net. So you and I and most of the people in this forum should thanking their lucky stars for gov funding. lol During Eisenhower the road system wouldn't of happened without heavy gov spending. Now we got the lowest tax rates in this country and a road and bridge system falling apart.
Its more like you cant pay your bills but are only willing work a part time job. You and I pay a roughly a third of our income in payroll taxes . Where some hedge fund manager making 4 billion a year pays 15% or google pays 4 percent in business taxes. That doesnt work and of course spending will go up more people, things get more expensive. But while that's all happening you keep collecting less. It doesn't work.
I said it before I want the extreme right to win it all. The middle class needs a real wake up call that the people they talk about arent you. And then maybe things get real shitty we will get a real progressive because the democrats arent progressives they are republican lite. People are foolish when they call them liberals because they are so far from that. Probably the only two real liberals are Bernie Sanders and Dennis Kucinich.

by the way raising the debt ceiling is to pay our current debts not raise spending.
