  3. This is how you can tell that someone is out of touch with reality, and has had zero experience as a business person. If the businesses were busy, and had more business than they could handle, the "greedy" (profitable) thing to do WOULD be to hire.

    Bullshit wallstreet will not get "record bonuses". I have a number of close friends in bulge brackets, in front office and elsewhere and I know exactly what their bonuses are.

    when was the last time a conservative was president.

    Note... revenues went up with Reagan's tax cuts.

  5. So did budget deficits and the national debt,more then any other president up to that point.


    Cutting taxes while running up huge deficits and the national debt isn't what I would call conservative.

    running these deficits is neither conservative nor patriotic. Those pols running such large deficits are traitors to our children and now maybe even us.
