I could use a good buggy whip right about now. Doing nothing is doing something, sometimes.

John
I have lived in several third world countries and I suggest that you move to one of them for several years and then see how much this country sucks.
If you keep losing your job why don't you start a business! Since you seem to know how to make decisions properly you should make a great boss. I am sure as a business owner you will love dealing with all of the levels of government and paying them off the top before you make a penny.
If your rent is too high I suggest you buy a home, prices are low right now and so are interest rates.
If you live some place where you can't afford a home why don't you move? Maybe you can go get one of those "shovel ready" jobs your guys is pushing

Here is the bottom line…quit complaining and take control of your life and quit looking o big brother to make you happy!

“Man you guys just don’t get it. This is your handiwork, you own it. No one cares if you disagree because NO ONE IS LISTENING TO YOU. You are an epic failure and a disgrace. Your ideology is a colossal disaster.

GO AWAY.”

Nice try buddy boy. When GWB inherited Clinton’s recession, the libs were all over him. Ditto his neglect of the terrorism issue, which visited us on 9/11. Thanks Bill!

So, now the Libs get to put up or shut up. Shoot, if they keep it up, they can merge this country with Venezuela in a few short years. That ought to make you happy.

The answer to ‘what’s in it for me’ is very very simple. Nothing.

I don’t own a home, so I guess help is out for me, despite having problems paying my inordinately high rent while I look for work (again) because my former company could not make decisions properly.

This country sucks.

You have to ask the question?
Oh – you intended it for progressives.
Nevermind.

Once again the intolerance of another person’s thoughts comes out in the comments of TEHSTUPID. The last line “GO AWAY.” says it all.

Yes, the folk of California fairly narrowly voted against equal marriage rights.

And Jim Crow laws had a lot of support in the old South. Democratic decision and what is right do not always coincide. Popular vote is a decision mechanism, not a moral arbiter. And even as a decision mechanism, the US has a Bill of RIghts for a reason: the notion of the tyranny of the majority is hardly empty. Ask any conservative in Hollywood.

“The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”
