We have to quit electing Ivy League lawyers to make decisions that affect our economy. Many of these lawyers never held a real job (including our president).
The federal government never produces anything but misery. They first extract money from us, shuffle it around, then return a small portion back to the states. It reminds me of the happy dog who has his tail cut off then half is fed back to him. He is so happy because you feed him half his tail.
I worked in a large corporation where we cut our salaries 10 percent for a year to help our business survive. We did this at least twice in my career.
Now our stupid federal government says the end of the world is likely if they cut even 2 1/2 percent. Most, but not all, this nonsense is spread by the donkey party.

POOR Jackpine , so lacking in any real world awareness this is all she can come up with to defend tha blatant graft coruption and outright lies of the lib party?
Not to mention her hypocrisy about posting her employers name and the blarny about me being some sort of religous zealot.
Time for JP to back down her "medical _ marijwana " alotment and get back to some semblance of reality.
Really Jackpine???
Really Jackpine? With all the dumb arse politicians out there, you pick a redundant law as the definition of dumb arse.
Truly there are more appropriate politicians for the definition of dumb arse.
What about a President who thinks there are 57 states?
Or a Speaker of the House who thinks it is possible to lose 500,000,000 jobs per month until passage of a stimulus package.
Or the Vice President who claims to have known eight presidents, three of them intimately.
Those are just three quick examples of dumb arse that rise way above the example Jackpine posted.
Hey all you Al Gore fans
Where in the H{LL is our Global Warming or as they like to call it now, Climate change?
The Real Party of Stupid Marches On!
Jackpine, below is a better example of a stupid politician. The Democrats are really dumbing down the political debate in this country. They continue with their combination of bad math and lies.

More proof of Jackpine's double standard.
Jackpine, this is a better example of the party of stupid. These democrats voted for this legislation. The lefties either didn't know what they were voting for, or they thought it was a good idea at the time. However, a 'moderate' like you could never criticize the mindless lefties.

Stupid people supporting stupid policies of the Party of Stupid
Then there are the Echo Whackos, who out-stupid the Party of Stupid... Stupid.
Nutty criticizes liberals for once.
Nutty says, "Stupid people supporting stupid policies of the Party of Stupid."
It's about time Nutty takes a critical look at his party.
In the past three decades,
In the past three decades, the number of Americans who are on disability has skyrocketed. The rise has come even as medical advances have allowed many more people to remain on the job, and new laws have banned workplace discrimination against the disabled. Every month, 14 million people now get a disability check from the government.
The federal government spends more money each year on cash payments for disabled former workers than it spends on food stamps and welfare combined. Yet people relying on disability payments are often overlooked in discussions of the social safety net. People on federal disability do not work. Yet because they are not technically part of the labor force, they are not counted among the unemployed.
In other words, people on disability don't show up in any of the places we usually look to see how the economy is doing. But the story of these programs -- who goes on them, and why, and what happens after that -- is, to a large extent, the story of the U.S. economy. It's the story not only of an aging workforce, but also of a hidden, increasingly expensive safety net.
