    Lol... Carter was a much better potus than Reagan the Hollywood fraud ever was.

    But you may have a point.
    People got careless after Clinton because he was so effective and let an idiot like Bush sneak in. They learned their lesson and elected Obama, who has been way better than Bush ever was.

    We still have high gas prices, and a record level of people on food stamps and a handful of Liberal Regulations(the ACA being the biggest and fattest one).

    Thank you Obama, thank you far leftists. Continue doing your duty of screwing this nation up.

    How do you explain Obama being better than Bush when we have a debt that is more than double what Bush had with nothing to show for it.

    Gas is a global resources and the price is determined by global supply and demand. The POTUS has nothing to do with gas prices.

    So why are you still here?

    There are plenty of white countries for you to move to. Russia sounds good, right? :clapping:

    Canada is nice and white, just stay away from Toronto and Vancouver, they are less white than every city in the USA. Watch out for the UHC, also. :)

    because America is my race and I don't want to leave it because times are bad.


    Russian nationalists only want ethnic Russians there. I don't want to turn my back on my country.

    Every white country has multiracial immigration laws and will not stay white so its pointless to move. But if there was one country with no multiracial immigration law I will consider moving.

    How is a country your race?

    What is a multiracial immigration law?

    You mean a "whites-only entry" rule that doesn't exist?

    I have to admit that I was tempted to post some funny "Thanks Obama" gifs, but I figured they would end up getting deleted by the mods.

    These days, Ma gets to toss the pigskin around with Pa and the kids, and we buy our apple pies. Nothing magical about apple pies. I like mine as a turnover with a half-life of U-235, in a paper wrapper from Circle K. Real progress has been made.

    But a fond memory from pre-Obama would be Reagan being unable to recollect trading arms to ayatollahs. And he had access to the football. Imagine, a guy with Parkinson's having access to the launch codes.

    If you got government out of the way of additional domestic production and refining, OPEC ability to rig trhe game would be attenuated.

    Government regulations are an integral part of the game-rigging mechanism. If government interference did not make it so difficult and expensive for new competitors, you'd see more competition and downward pressure on prices. As a trader you know that.

    We only had $1.85 under Bush at the very start of his Presidency (when the Dotcom bubble collapsed) and at the very end (when the housing bubble collapsed). Is that Republinomics in a nutshell?

    Face facts, the only way we get gas under $2 a gallon is when the economy goes into recession.

    .89 cents per gallon gas (Reagan era).

    Stunning economic recovery from Stagflation 70's
    After Reaganomics took hold, a rapid, large decrease in unemployment
    Strengthening of the U. S. military
    Weakening of the Soviet military
    Greatly increased respect and trust from international friends
    Greatly increased fear from international enemies
    Next to NO inflation, in almost anything -- including many things they no longer consider "eligible" for inflation measurement anymore (because it makes a lie of their bull**** that "there's no inflation".... :cynic: -- "Are you just some kind of racist that hates Obama...?!"

    Is this some sort of parody of a non-thinking nostalgic person remembering golden times that never were?

    The Reagan era had the highest gas prices in history adjusted for inflation, even worse than Dubya.

    I paid 88 cents a gallon in the Clinton era. It was under Dubya that it skyrocketed to what it is now.

    Another fond memory of 2008. An electric rate of $0.045/kwh.

    Last months rate was $0.091/kwh.

    My favorite memory of the United States was when we had pride in being Americans, and we were fairly well united in that pride.

    This was before idiots on the far-right and the far-left decided to declare war on their fellow American taxpayers, and pigeon-hole them into the category of either 'Libs, tree-huggers, *******s, and Dems' or 'Wing-nuts, tea-baggers, 'Cons, and Reichwingers'.

    I miss those days before all this formulamatic, partisan-political, media-driven 'culture of animosity' nonsense became the way of things.

    Please, please stop telling everyone you're white. You make us look ignorant.

    Ever read the political vitriol of the late 1790s and the early 1800s. There was some serious hatred between Hamilton and his adherents and Jefferson and his people. What made it worse than today was that you could get attacked by guys with the superb command of the language that Jefferson and Hamilton had.

    It's nothing new. In fact I think the founders viewed it as a feature, not a bug. They feared an unfettered government and they may have seen partisan vitriol as a (nonofficial) way of limiting government.

    Check out what people were saying in the 1850s. Or 1890-1915. After that, the tone backed down as consolidation in the media reduced the number of competing voices until by 1967, the national conversation was dominated by a handful of people on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.

    The Internet has destroyed the monopoly on information the Manhattan clique had, and has restored America back to its raucous self.

    Yes regulations can stymie some production. But I prefer that to the Great Lakes burning.
