That don't mean s**t...especially if they were born during the time when ISIS should really have hunted your pink azzes down...but the Russians were going to provide weapons and assistance...lots of people went to C*******t Party meetings back then...read about Malcolm telling the southern legislature about guerrilla warfare against the klan if anti-lynching laws were not passed..that is why MLK was embraced...churchgoers were the lesser of evils....Malcolm and others had something for that azz..because we know all the r****t understands is violence and economics..they are not listening to s**t else.

No one can convince me that B Hussein O, if not a practicing Muslim, is not an admirer of Islam, and will do everything he can to avoid offending Muslims and Islam as a whole. I know people who truly believe that when O is safely ensconced in the WH family quarters, he breaks out his prayer run and a copy of the Qu'ran, and chants "the prettiest sounds on earth."

His feeble reactions to the ISIS aggression in Iraq, are merely CYA, and his ROE and Operational restrictions on any US forces on the field anywhere in the ME are getting the wrong people k**led. His foreign policies, bandied about the ME by John "Lurch" Kerry, are all structured on an anti-Israel/pro Islam agenda.

B Hussein O is a very dangerous man. Not only to the United States but to all civilized peoples in the world.

The point of Obamacare? It was an attempt to get those who paid nothing into the health insurance system (thus not contributing to the health care of others) to pay in at least a bit; aka- the mandate.

So why did they tell us it was the compassion for the 30 million uninsured?

It was an attempt to get health insurance to those who could not get it because of pre-existing conditons.

So why did they exclude everyone on Medicare? Bet you did not know that Medicare is excluded from pre-existing conditions. Who needs it worse than the old folks?

It was an attempt to get insurance companies to put more into actual healthcare of their insureds and less into their pockets.

How's that working out?

It basically was an attempt at health insurance reform. Not healthcare reform. It is proof positive that we need a single payer system. The health insurance companies need to go away. There are philosophical arguments against it but point in fact, the health insurance companies are not really competing. Obamacare was supposed to produce more competition between health insurance companies as well. It is failing.

I totally agree!!!! That it's failing.

In reality it is health care itself that needs to be reformed. Ours costs more and gives less than many, many countries. Dispite all its positives here in the US, we simply pay too much for it and our meds. We are being ripped off. Add to that the sheer number of people in the US who die from medical mistakes, then you can see how the health care industry has gotten out of control. By their own estimates which range for a high to a low number, at the lowest estimates, deaths related to medical mistakes are the sixth leading cause of death in the US.

You are correct on this issue!!!

Sure we have some geniuses in the field and doctors and nurses are amazing. But too many are not.

The entire system is convoluted and their weaknesses are linked, mostly to greed.

I had to explain to an adult (are you an adult?) that the value of the British pound at the end of the war was the result of the war.

Why was that explanation necessary? Anybody with a brain (do you have a brain?) would not need such an explanation.

I demand that the OPP community come to my assistance and affirm my right to ask:

Why do I have to explain simple things like that to an adult?

Dennnis Dee! Mr. Shako! AuntE! Anybody!

Please! I beg of you!

Help me explain something simple to a moron!

First, printing money causes not debt. But let's talk about today:

For some unknown reason, conservatives seem to think that the federal debt is a bad thing. The federal debt is the sum of private assets, the wealth of individuals and corporations. It is exactly what makes the future look prosperous. The alternative is extreme poverty.

Conservatives are also concerned that foreigners own about half the debt. That ownership is exactly what makes the US dollar a reserve currency. Without the foreign ownership of much of the US debt, it would not be a reserve currency. It is absolutely necessary that the issuer of a reserve currency have a large debt and that much of the debt belong to foreigners. The large foreign ownership is not a source of worry. It should be a source of p***e.

For well over a century, the British pound was a reserve currency and they had a very high debt/GDP ratio, sometimes over 1,000 and they didn’t worry about it.. And the debt ratio was not the cause of fall of the pound. It was World Wars I and II that ruined the pound.

Banks issue CDs. The owners of the CDs are glad to have those assets. The banks that grant the CDs are glad to have the debt. Otherwise, they would not offer the CDs. But to stay solvent, the banks have to lend the principal of the CD to a performing borrower at a higher interest rate.

The Treasury doesn't have to lend the principal to make a profit. It just has to pay the interest. It does that by auctioning more debt, ad infinitum.

Meanwhile, the Fed buys a lot of the debt on the open market with cost-free keystrokes, pockets the interest and returns 94% of it to the Treasury, thus eliminating the debt. The Treasury trades bonds for real dollars while the Fed trades keystrokes for the same bonds. So the Treasury-Fed combo gets real dollars for keystrokes. Pouf! The debt is sequestered in the combo.
In theory, the Fed could buy all the treasuries outstanding but that would make no sense. Everybody with a treasury wants that asset; otherwise, being perfectly liquid, it would be sold. The alternative is to hold dollars, which lose their value at a faster rate than the treasury.

In summary, the Fed, by buying treasuries, decreases the supply and increases their value and lowers their interest rate. Currently, the interest rates are extremely low and the value of the treasuries is extremely high. The Fed can ALWAYS keep it that way.

Stop worrying and learn to love the debt. It's part of your 401 (k). Kwitcherbellyakin!

The fact that the money was spent in 1946 instead of 1943-44 is immaterial. The point is that government spending increases consumer demand and consumer spending and prosperity. The timing is irrelevant.

Sign the damn letter if you are not lying about your true beliefs

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I, Dennis Dee, honestly believe that it is physically, economically, and mathematically impossible, during a recession, for a US government to print enough fiat currency and spend it on necessary infrastructure to seriously improve the economy and also stop or reduce printing before it is troubled by hyper-inflation. I honestly believe that hyper-inflation must follow all printing of fiat currency no matter how little.

If the above statement is a lie, may my mother's soul burn in Hell forever.

Signed ........................

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If you copy, sign, and post that letter, then I will believe you are honest. Stupid, yes, but honest.

Otherwise, you are a stupid liar.
