Unfit to lead

[froggy]

Why can't virgina be governed by some other state? Apparently it can't do the job . You have to wait 3 to 4 weeks to get unemployment started, thats stupid

 

[Annie]

I thought this was going to be about Obama and was shocked.

 

[Bill O'Olberman]

Hmm... funny. Virginia is usually considered amoungst the best managed states in the United States of America.

 

[froggy]

Should one wait that long for a check.

 

[Truthmatters]

Hey Froggy, sorry to hear you are out of work.

 

[froggy]

America will survive she always does.

 

[Otter_Creek]

You might be surprised just how precarious the precipice is we're teetering on.

 

[Vel]

America will survive she always does.

Are you sure about that? The assumption of America's invincibility is, IMO, one of the reasons that we find ourselves in such a mess. So many people assume that this nation will always survive unscathed and fundamentally unchanged so they feel they don't have to take a stand or be proactive in preserving the USA. The Romans though their empire invincible as well.

 

[Old Rocks]

Yes, we are still very close to the situation of 1929.

Another legacy of President George W. Bush: massive income inequality

George W. Bush left so many memorable things in his wake. Sure, there were those two wars. And then there's that legacy of white-hot hate wielded by wacky multimillionaire talking heads. However, for a legacy that keeps on giving, W's greatest leave-behind is a level of income inequality that outpaces even that of the Roaring '20s that led to the Great Depression.

In 2007, the top .001 percent of American earners took home 6 percent of total U.S. wages -- about twice the figure for 2000, notes Emmanuel Saez, an economics professor at University of California–Berkeley. Saez also found that the top 10 percent of American earners pulled in 49.7 percent of total wages: a level "higher than any other year since 1917 and even surpasses 1928."

Don't worry Froggy, Kaine is cutting 1.6 billion and he is looking to cut mostly in education...you should get your check as soon as they close some schools and fire some teachers.

Eating the seed corn.

Kaine told the General Assembly's budget- and tax-writing committees that the unprecedented cuts were driven by the worst economy since the Great Depression.

He said he will make up the differences through spending cuts to be finalized within the next month, redirecting unspent balances and using the "rainy day" reserve fund.

Kaine told the House Appropriations and Finance committees and the Senate Finance Committee that revenues for the fiscal year that began July 1 are expected to decline by 1.6 percent by June, when the current budget expires.

That combined with the 9.2 percent decline in revenues for the fiscal year that ended seven weeks ago represents the first time on record that state general fund receipts are projected to decline two years in a row.

In interviews after his 20-minute address, Kaine said layoffs seemed unavoidable.

"Where they will be and how many there will be, it's too soon to say," he said.

He also said no spending area--including public schools, which are often sacrosanct--are exempt.

Why don't you, instead of waiting for a bailout from the government, go get a job and stop mooching? Do anything. Get a job at fucking McDonalds if you have to.

Wait. You voted for Obama. You encouraged this kind of behavior.
