You are going to take money away from intelligent people and give it Obama voters who have no money and yet expect the Obamaites to spend it wisely? I don't think so.
That's often overlooked in the debate. We do have an excess supply of labor and that is holding wages down. How about the 20 million illegal aliens who are working in the US? We should start by deporting them.
So instead of paying down the debt with your extra money < like many have that to begin with> he is suggesting to buy things... Just how the country is run it shouldnt be a surprise.
hey now i like the thought of getting an extra $3k lol. but ummm how in the hell is he gonna accomplish that? just in time for elections eh?
More evidence in the Republican war against Furnaces. Really besides blind hatred of all things Obama I don't understand this thread, is humor entirley lost on you?
You get more out of donating to romney than...something that is hard to classify or whose name is unknown or forgotten (definition of thingamajig)
We love how you fail to address a single point of this latest "What a Clown Obama Is" thread, but keep coming back to convince us of its " failure". Why dontcha go buy a "thingamajig", and help Ol' Barry, "the Choomer" out? Friggin' hilarious...
Address what point in the thread?? You mean the fact that Obama said a REAL word, which has already been pointed out in this thread? Is that the point you meant there Grokers?
The fact that he knows jack(*)(*)(*)(*) about anything, is ONE of the points at hand; the fact that he thinks Americans are just dying to unload "disposable income" in the worst economic condition this nation has been in since WW2 is another. Nothing funnier than a bookish, Leftninny pencil neck, who couldn't change a LIGHTBULB by himself, like Obama, trying to pretend a SHRED of everyday, practical experience...
Hoarding money is just a symptom of a bigger problem. Even Americans won't buy thingamajigs when they need to save money. The problem is how do we push people up into their financial safety zone with minimal cost and effort by the government and minimum breaking of the fragile economy?
2x on the idea that consumer spending is the key to correcting the economic down turn. But illegaqls send the money to Mexico, so that doesn't help here. Hiring more gocernment employees doesn't help because their pay must come from the nTaxes, not the business community. Only raising everyone;s salary will pump large sums intotthe economy. The government is the one entity that can make wages for everyone go up, by increasing the Min Wage. All other salaries will rise too. This is the one thing that will make everyone;s mortgage seem do-able and with double the pay over the next 8 years, the GNP will double, taxes collected will double, houses will double, and pold debts will easily be paid off.
All I gotta say is when you vote in November, don't forget to pull that Thingamajig to cast your vote.
No.. do not buy that thingamajig or whatever UNLESS you can afford to buy it without credit. I just outsmarted the current president by....a gazillion light years squared and multiplied by infinity. That $ 3,000 dollars he speaks of the GOVERNMENT does not have and must borrow. This is the worst president to lead a nation ever developed by any political party. Borrow and spend..somebody else will pay for it.. For the record..I live 70 miles north of where he spoke..I didnt TURN ON MY FURNACE last year instead heated with WOOD PELLETS and saved over $1,000 in a mild winter. That is the lesson he should be speaking about..not spending money you dont have... Economics 101.
What rational inteeligent and wise people need to do is forget about politics, and start promoting on the internet the ideas that neither Romney nor Obama are even considering as a solution to the economic problem in the whole Western world. Problem: People are too scared and worry to spend their money or borrow on credit for big items, like cars, Homes, vacation property, etc. Solution: Give every working person pay raises. Plan: Increase the Minimum Wage for the 80 million Unskilled laborers. The min wage has not be raised in accord with the past policy of doublingthe wages every ten years. This stopped when the women entered the work force in 1960. The excess labor flood the market and hence, wages were allowed to remain, effectively reducing Unskilled Labor wages accordingly, to about half the rate. That will require salary raises for Skilled Labor, the Professionals, the Managerial Staff Workers, etc. First, the minimum wage has not increased fairly and as it had always done since 1940. The big slow down in raising the Min Wage began in 1960, when the women entered and doubled the Unskilled Work Force. Employers had twice the Labor Pool, so wages were ultimately cut in half since then. Check it out:
Yeah, I remember how Bush made a silly ass out of himself for trying to herd people out to just buy a bunch of crap... but at least he "gave" people $600 a head to go do it... more (of course) if you were a "family".... But,THINGAMAJIG? Holy crap! That sounds pretty darn RACIST to me! Is the Black half of Obama scolding the White half of himself for saying anything out loud with "JIG" in it?!
