Would you buy a War Bond?

[del]

if it was 1943, i absolutely would.

i wouldn't (voluntarily) pay a nickel for what we have going on in iraq and afghanistan.

I would not buy a bond supporting a war I never supported.

Obama should propose selling bonds that are meant to alleviate the debt we owe to China. If the US government is going to spend billions of dollars a year in interest, it may as well go back to the American people.

No there are better ways to get a return on an investment.

I don't see how you could sell enough of those to put a dent in the debt to China.

 

[Dr.Traveler]

Yes.

 

[Luissa]

Never.

We should not be engaged in wars, especailly fighting other people's battles.

Let them solve their own damn problems, we have more then enough of our own.

but don't we have to pay for the debt we already have from this war?
People don't want their taxes raised but we have to pay for this war some how.

In a heart beat!! Navy posted this in a Bfgrn "tax & blame game" thread as an alternative. Of course it was ignored.

 

[JW Frogen]

Absolutely I would.

If not for the tyranny of distance, I would too.

 

[Douger]

If it's in dollars, definitely not.

 

[Midnight Marauder]

Why should they sell war bonds when they can just TAKE your money? Like they're proposing with this "war tax."
