Republicans are clueless when it comes to fixing the economy

[CrusaderFrank]

We need to abort ObamaCare.

More oil is the answer. Tear up the environment and sell it off to China to pay down our debt. That's the Republican answer. Just build that pipeline that will make it easier to ship Canadian oil to China. That's going to lower American gas prices for sure.

And if peaceful negotiation doesn't work then the Republican Taliban can just threaten Democrats with loaded weapons from behind human shields to get what they want.

Just build that pipeline that will make it easier to ship Canadian oil to China.

Building a pipeline to the Atlantic Ocean will make it easier to ship oil to China, which is on the Pacific Ocean?

Wow! Libs are as bad at geography as they are at economics...and science...and math.

Our soldiers have not been dying for ten years to protect your right to be a moron.

Yeah, because the private sector has done such a great job providing for the masses. There are so many people on food stamps because they're lazy and they want to barely make enough money from two jobs just to get by.

But keep voting for that drug war, Republicans. We wouldn't all of those cops and Federal agents who you want to kill from behind unarmed human shields to lose their jobs, would we?

yea its all one parties fault....explain California....where i sit your precious little party aint no better than the one you blame for everything at Governing......they both suck....

You are the perfect example of what happens when liberal college professors and High School teachers are allowed to fill naive young minds with concepts that have NOTHING to do with reality.

The private sector of the United States of America has created more wealth for more people than any group in the history of mankind. The opportunities here were why for hundreds of years the poor in other countries risked everything to try and come to America. Now however we've got a bloated, inefficient Federal Government sucking the very life out of our private sector in a never satisfied quest for "fairness" and what we are ending up with is neither "fair" nor workable.

Only someone totally clueless would blame the private sector for the increase in food stamps and in people working part time jobs. That is TOTALLY the fault of the idiots in Washington DC who don't have the faintest idea how the private sector operates and quite frankly don't seem to care. They are in the process of killing the goose that laid the golden egg, oblivious to what it is that they are doing.

It is the Democrats who oppose opening all public lands, ANWR, the eastern OCS, the western OCS, and the eastern Gulf of Mexico to crude oil and natural gas exploration.

It is the Democrats who propose denying the crude oil and natural gas industries tax provisions that have been on the books for 100 years and that are still made available to all other industries in this country.

It is the Democrats that deny the science and education of high volume high pressure hydraulic fracturing - the very processes that have so far staved our country from certain economic ruin.

It is the Democrats who wish to stifle commerce through increased taxation on every level of commerce.

It is the Democrats who wish to **** us in the ass at every turn....

Most oil leases on public lands go unused - US news

What is wrong with you dumb *****. How come you say all that bullshit and have zero clue what you are talking about? Is ignorance something you practice?????

Dumb shit.

How does a constantly increasing military budget coupled with high-income tax cuts help the middle and lower classes? Please fill my naive mind with your Conservative supply-side Heritage Foundation wisdom.

Wisdom starts with the recognition of reality. First, the middle class and the lower class do not exist except as a means of measurement. Individuals, whose income and wealth fall into those brackets, are the people who benefit from, and/or are hurt by government policies. Once you get that through your thick skull, then you can move on to what is good, or bad for individual Americans.

Tax hikes on high income earners benefit no individual Americans, and tax cuts on high income earners harms no individual Americans. The taxes that others pay puts no food on the table, and it takes no food off the table. Any of you loons who scream about tax cuts on the wealthy, should try to explain how that affects you personally.

The military budget increasing harms no individual Americans, but could well benefit individual Americans who work in the defense industry. Otherwise, it is just another federal govenment expenditure.

This argument about the hollowed out middle class and the suffering lower classes is a smoke screen designed to keep you loons confused about reality. When prosperity returns, the middle class will grow and the lower classes will suffer less. So, how about we work on a return to prosperity and toss the rest of the nonsense?

So you're seriously going to suggest that the private sector which creates all the wealth in the world and employs most human beings does a bad job creating jobs?

What on earth does the drug war have to do with job creation?

No, classes do not exist any more than racial or ethnical groups exist. They are all categories that individuals fall into, yet have no real meaning except as a means of promoting group division, and therefore, group strife. We live, eat, enjoy, suffer, and die as individuals, not groups. Government policies affect us as individuals, not groups.

Group politics allows politicians to treat individuals unevenly, by supporting one group at the expense of another. A way around the all Americans are created equal doctrine.

Those up higher the leftist food chain take advantage of bad times to push their agenda, "See, capitalism doesn't work, etc". And they make sure there are plenty of bad times.

I'm not asking for a constantly increasing military budget...I personally would like to see that held at current levels or slightly lower and have the armed forces get rid of waste in their budgets. Nor am I asking for high income tax cuts. I am telling you that increasing taxes on those with capital to invest will simply drive that capital into tax shelters instead of investment in businesses that would hire middle class and lower class people. The reason I find you to be completely naive is that you somehow buy into the notion that increasing taxes will stimulate the economy and create jobs and it isn't true. It's a populist message that progressives are trying to use to divert attention from the failures of their economic policies.

Never claimed to be one, Capt Oblivious.
The military is a constitutional responsibility of the federal government. You want to debate the role of the military, go somewhere else.
Tax cuts that are designed to change behavior, i.e. encourage hard work, benefit everyone, even those who don't necessarily get those tax cuts. Explaining why would require thinking beyond Stage One, which is impossible for a genius IQ like yourself.

Here is proof extending unemployment insurance stimulates economic growth and thus creates jobs. The heart of Obama's stimulus package. Proof that just because something seems counter intuitive, it doesn't mean it isn't true. Government can and does create jobs.

Food stamps and unemployment are the drivers of the Obama economic miracle!
