  1. Not going to happen, until voters start thinking more seriously about downsizing. And based on voting patterns, it is crystal clear that American voters are quite socialist.

  2. ............................................................

    1000% correct....


    The masses will not change until the pain is felt big time....

    Sad....but very true....

    Some children only understand "after a good whippin"....

    ..................................................

    The best thing that Americans could be doing for their children right now is "total reform"....

    By the way....what is the real unemployment rate for recent graduates ?

  3. Well, 52% of us apparently are. Most of the rest of HATE IT! Wouldn't describe that as "crystal"..

  4. There hasn't been a non-socialist President or Congress elected in at least 40 years, from either American party.

    It's a lot higher than 52%, mate.

  5. ...........................................................

    All that is needed is....

    some "real pain" for the masses....

    Then the votes will be there....

    People are going to be "ultra-angry" when they finally figure out what Obamanism is going to bring to them....

  6. Well, it was in 2008 election where the Socialist candidate won with 52% of the vote.

    Yes, we've long been Social-istic to a degree... but there comes a tipping point... a "point of no return"... where socialistic concerns and greeds trump all else... which history will probably ascribe to Obama.

  7. So you felt Bush had us going in the right direction? If we had followed through with his SS reforms by privatizing the system our country would have ceased to exist by now. You do realize that, don't you?

  8. No, Bush was HORSE SHIT too.... makes my list of world's worst leaders... But just because "Obama isn't Bush" doesn't preclude Obama from being even WORSE for America... which is my view.

  9. Unlikely - it will be ascribed to either Nixon or Reagan.
