    The biggest problem we have in America is simple. It is called free handouts. Oh you want an EBT card and free healthcare? Okay simple, all you gotta do is pee in this little cup. You can't pass a drug test, you get no govt assistance. Pretty simple solution to an ongoing problem if you ask me. It would be amazing how many would then learn to do the jobs the illegals are doing. Don't have 7 kids so you can get more govt assistance. Get your butt up off the couch and go to work.

    Congress sends Obama $1.1 T spending bill
    12/14/14 WASHINGTON (AP) — Congress cleared a $1.1 trillion spending bill for President Barack Obama's signature late Saturday night after a day of Senate intrigue capped by a failed, largely symbolic Republican challenge to the administration's new immigration policy.

    I would rather cure the problem with growing welfare spending by taking our economy back from the global neo feudalists, and create an economic model that employs americans again. You know, have an economic model that serves and feeds the people instead of maxing out the income of the elites. Then we would not have to worry about borrowing money to deal with the damage caused by the greed of the rich, which the cons worship as if they were gods or something.

    Until we get a sane economic model, we need to tax the rich at 70 percent over a millions bucks, in order to pay for the damage their greed created on americans. Take the free lunch away, and force them to stop enriching a communist state who hates our guts.

    Hey! it is me again! before you start throwing figures around, maybe we should do some theory? if people are not spending enough, as that is the only problem there can be, there needs to be less saving. when we see the rich people saving and the poor people spending, well, that is lop sided, as the money stays in the bank and doesn't get as much circulation.

    But, if the money is circulating the country and gathering taxes and creating credit, the state will benefit, they will spend money on people, the people wil benefit, the people will vote for them again, and so forth.

    To get more money out of what you have, you need to take risks. if you were to buy something for cheap, and sell it for a lot, well, that is business. buying in bulk is something only the big boys can do, so strangle the smaller companies and businesses. so, you need something original - a country with a unique product could do wonders, yes? a special product could be something cheap, something 'strong' or even something new. if South Africa was to sell their proteas - a flower that grows only on table mountain, then they could make an example of something new or special, yes?
