    I hate America

    My bank gives me free money for using my credit card. I pay no fees for using the credit card. Credit cards rock, if you know how to use them.

    I hate America

    Banks didn't buy shitty paper. Investors bought shitty paper. Banks just packaged it and sold it to them. The demand for the shitty paper is what caused the banks to facilitate the supply.

    I hate America

    Corporations should not pay any taxes at all. The taxes should flow through to the shareholders. When corporations pay taxes, they shift the cost to employees first, and then to customers. Thus, corporate taxes are simply shifting wealth from employees and customers to shareholders. If...

    Receding hairline

    We've all seen the pics. You've got bigger fish to fry than a receding hairline.

    Economists see growing risk of global recession

    Seems likely at this point. Perhaps not a full blown recession, but just a flatness for some time.

    High Deficits

    No one has answered the question, actually. The best I got from you was "it's obvious," I think.

    Let's just pretend he doesn't exist.

    I was all, "Smaller government...yeah that's nice....avoiding wars...I can see that, that's rational....Elimination of the income tax....WAIT WHAT?!?!?!?!"

    High Deficits

    Deficits can be sustained in perpetuity. No economist disagrees with this. That wasn't the question. I'm very clear about that concept. Or did you mean something else?

    Let's just pretend he doesn't exist.

    I prefer that we do. He's a 100% certified nutcase.

    Spears: This Training Camp Is No Different

    No, I read that as him saying that camp is tough just like the rest of them. He's just saying that the public perception of "the rest of them" was incorrect.

    Yeah, it's bad for me too. But that's because I don't have the ability to raise tax revenue or issue more debt like the U.S. government does. That's why I'm curious for a clear answer as to why high deficits are bad with respect to the U.S. government, not me. I know why I can't run debt...
