The Top 40

But, but... How can this be? I just saw an Associated Press full-page spread in the newspaper last week about how the Republican super-pacs were raising titanic amounts of money, and Obama wasn't even mentioned!

You know... I just don't think it will even be close. I think my semi-psychotic ex-wife could beat Barack.

The reason the left is so intently looking at our candidates is because they know instinctively he (Barack) cannot possibly win. You have to so self deluded .. in the extreme... to even consider voting or revoting for him. This guy is toast. Plain and simple.

I think that all the answers given I've heard about the ecnoomy are poor to say the least and the worst of them all was the one by the president elect.I think most americans are clueless as to how the money market really works.I say this because no one would agree that the solution would be to dump more money into the money supply to cure the problem.This causes the value of the dollar to decrease which means that it will cost more to buy less of anything.Does anyone know history?Does anyone know what the goverment had to do to fix the ecnoomy during the depression?They had to decrease the size of the money supply to bring the value of the dollar back up.The only way to fix inflation is to either add more gold into our reserves or take away money from the money supply.This is not rocket science it is simple math.This is where it all begins and ends.And the only solution for the ecnoomy lies in that information.Several factors contributed to get us to the point we are with the ecnoomy but I will only talk about one right now.It is a fault of President Clinton.He signed a bill that allowed big companies tax cuts by moving there operations out of the united states.This did not affect our country overnight but is destroying us over time.So I got to thinking and realized we need a solution that is good for big business and good for the average american to.Because of our minimum wages laws it cost more for our companies to make products here than if they setup shop in a third world country with no minimum wage requirement.Making it next to impossible to compete with companies that use that labor.So what we need is to get those business back in the U.S. and the jobs they bring with them.So how do we do that?My suggestion is threw imports and exports.If we lowered the export rates this would give our companies more of a chance to compete with sweatshop labor maybe give incentive to companies to base there operations here to take advantage of the lowered export rates.The second step would be to inflat the price on importing to the country.Make it so high if any company wants a part of our market that it will be apparent that they are losing profits from these import taxes and would be making more money if they based there business from here which would inturn create more jobs.This import tax would also raise the price of there products making it a level playing field competing for market share with our companies.Then with the money we are getting on the imports taxes take away the inflation in the money supply so the value of the dollar goes back up.This way we can use there money to fix our inflation instead of struggling to do it with our own.We also need to stop this unneeded spending with the war.This is not good for us it is good for the defense contractors.Everytime you hear that the government is spending more money on the war the less that dollar in your pocket can buy.So in reality if you support the war you support the ecnoomy we are currently living in weather you realize it or not.Right now we are living in a deception about the gasoline.It is so low right now but how?The price of everything else is way up.This worries me and I wait for the other shoe to drop.I feel that we are getting buttered up to lighten the blow on something bigger.People always say the ecnoomy is bad all over the world and they use that as a crutch.I just would like to know when we started comparing ourselves to everybody else.When you are the greatest at anything you can not compare yourself to anybody else.You can only compare yourself to yourself or the potential you have that is what makes you so great and better than anyone else.Other opinions I would like to voice is the need to do away with the electoral college.It is outdated and unneeded because of the technology today.We should never end up with a president that does not have the support of the people.This takes away from the concept of a democracy.It makes our elections a farce to some extent.Its supporters say it has only failed us twice and I say that is 2 times to many.I also disagree with the patriot act.This law basically strips 7 of the 1st ten amendments.This law was put in to affect to make it easier for the government to protect us.I say we have been around for a few hundred years and never needed the patriot act.If the people in charge cant keep us safe as the people that held there job before them did then they should be no different than I or you at our jobs.Which means that they should be replaced by someone that can do the job.
