This is what happens when our Govt gives every kind of tax break they can to the rich and corporations. Run the country right into the ground in the name of greed.

 

They can't say they don't give tax breaks rich and corporations, GE didn't pay 1 cent in taxes, But they got back over 2 Billion in a tax refund. I paid their share!!! and so didn't everyone else that pays taxes. Damn country is going to hell and quick.

 

"A note for Terrorist: "You don't need to do anything to the USA. Our Govt will kill us off" All in the name of greed. Just sit back and wait, they will do something stupid real soon.

 

I find it amazing, people here keep voting for the same jerks over and over. So my vote amounts to Sh!t

 

I can't stand either party here, The Democrats or the Republicans, The Tea Party or any of them jackasses.

Same here mate- they are all inn the pockets of the greed merchants, they quickly become greed merchants themselves- then spend the rest of their lives "working" for the EU in Brussels or similar- total Jokers!

As you can tell this has me ticked off. It is just down right stupid what the Govt is doing. A lot of people blame Obama, but it's both parties not just one. They cut funding for the people that need the help, but they won't make the rich and corporations pay their share of taxes.

 

Gee lets see, No taxes for them, spend money on projects that just puts money in the pockets of a few people ie. "Special Interest Groups", So lets see, lets cut funding for people on SSI and SSDI. Even though they fund it and we spend the money they people put in it every year they worked. It's pretty sad when over 14% of the people in this country need food stamps, just to have food on the table.

 

Of course we have the jerks here saying, "Get a job" All I say is, What job? They want people to work for wages, that won't even pay your rent and basic bills just to have a place to call home. Never mind buy food with what companies pay these days.

At this moment its about the same worldwide

and for sure, Arfa is 100% right ... if somebody don't acts well into the National politics ... He or She is "dropped" into the European Parliament and urns "more" than ever before

Same here mate- they are all inn the pockets of the greed merchants, they quickly become greed merchants themselves- then spend the rest of their lives "working" for the EU in Brussels or similar- total Jokers!

I know GK. I am just getting madder and madder at out Govt. These people don't have a clue as to what their doing and the run countries. How in the world did we all end up like this?

 

It's like they all had one big meeting and said. Let's screw everyone around the world, spend the countries money they don't have and screw them all and the thing is, it isn't helping anyone that I know of.

Same answer to you Bill ...

Since the Euro started at Europe people have lesser into their pockets than before

Cheese who was sold before that time for lesser than 0,50 Euro costs now into "Euroland" 2 and more Euro

To my knowledge it ain't the furniture and similar products who are costing more than before ... No ... its the daily food and beverage who costs more than ever before

Food and beverage are things who are used by the "common" people

In the EU people urn an average between 890 and 1450 Euro ...

If the rent, food and drinks are paid there is not that much left to have a "nice and relaxed" life

Of course we have the jerks here saying, "Get a job" All I say is, What job? They want people to work for wages, that won't even pay your rent and basic bills just to have a place to call home. Never mind buy food with what companies pay these days.

All I can say is. I'm glad I'm not young these days (Under 35 or so). The young people of today are going to have a real hard time. A lot of them are now, never mind going to have a hard time.

If everybody stopped giving it the big BS factor, and owned up to reality, then this problem would never have arisen.

 

Everyone was pretending that there was a Golden Egg, and it never existed! Sadly, the whole pack of cards was built on pure fiction.

 

Borrowing money that probably never existed on promises of money that certainly never will exist!

All the problems of the Golden Egg, have finally come home to roost!

 

Now China steps in, and picks up the crumbs, only too willing to mass produce and sell via vast quantity, all at a bare minimum of profit- in turn, destroying the worlds limited and finite resources.

 

Homo Sapines, civilised, clever, I think not!
