Obamney 2012 - Barack Obama And Mitt Romney Are Essentially The Same Candidate

Hypocrisy is the hallmark of the Republican party. Gov't doesn't create jobs, but President Romney will. Gov't needs to get smaller....wait we gotta drastically increase defense spending.

The left is just plain loony and the right are absolute hypocrites. They don't mind big government when it's forcing people to do what they want (keep gays from getting married, bomb brown people, etc.)

Agreed.

And AGAIN...No. The low rates are independent of the decision making process when it comes to raising state level tuition, as evidenced by the upward trend over the past 5 years, where the interest rates were not fixed. The housing bubble is a separate example and issue all together. The two examples ONCE AGAIN have nothing in common, except for the word "loan." Examine the number of homeowners vs college graduates. The disparity in loans handed out for either example, aren't even remotely close. The only way to increase production, is to invest in education. Education leads to better jobs, skilled labor, better pay, ultimately leading to higher contributions in the way of taxes. It's funny Romney stated in the first 15 minutes of the debate that he's running to create 12 million jobs, fast forward 30 minutes later and he says that government does not create jobs. Wait...what? :/

and again, you fail to recognize the reality that there is no reason why educational costs have gone up by a far greater percentage than anything else in the economy other than easy availablity of money. Easy availability of money makes people less cautious how they spend it. The housing bubble is entirely related as a significant fraction of our college graduates are graduating with more debt than they can afford to repay with the actual jobs they are able to get with their degree. Who said the # of loans are the same or the ecomonic impact would be the same? Not me. But that doesn't preclude their being a student loan bubble that will burst, with some significant amount of economic turmoil.

And you are 100% wrong on how to increase production. Education in THE APPROPRIATE AREAS leads to a cascade of jobs. If everyone in the US got a bachelor of arts degree in "Interdisciplinary Classical Civilizations" it would not do a damn thing for production. Similarly, there is a need for entry level jobs. In a chemical plant for every 1 chemical engineer there are a varying number of lab technicians who don't require degrees.

Separately, there was no increase in educational levels in the 1940s-1950s but amazingly we had some of the greatest growth in the country we've ever had.

But I know that since you are indoctrinated, you believe what you say, so its ok.

No, that is just EASY's reasoning, in the face of examining studies that show quite the opposite. That state level institutions have been steadily increasing tuition costs by 3-5% over the last five years, despite interest rates being raised or lowered, independent of either of those factors.Those are the facts. And I agreed with you, if you bothered to read my earlier posts, that degrees in specialized areas like finance, accounting, law, engineering leads to job growth and higher pay, without skilled labor those lab technicians would be bagging groceries. See how that domino effect works? It has NOTHING to do with your examples of growth in the 1940s-1950s, since we operate in a COMPLETELY different economic environment. Kinda like we have few battleships today than we did 30 years ago. Apples to oranges.

While I'm not advocating the death threats this happens big time to both sides. I sorta agree with southpaw on it not being a new or novel thing. Plenty of idiots spouting off about killing Obama or Romney, hopefully it's just people being idiots, but hardly a new phenomena for people running for president.

Hell I've probably heard we outta kill that n-word President 50 times in the last 4 years near my earshot.

Typical conservative emoting. Attempt to tell people if we only go back to the policies of the 1950's, things would improve. The only thing missing in that statement is logic.

Government social program needs to get smaller. Not military... I don't think he was referring the military as that part of "government". The reason the US is the most power country in the world is not because of our economy, but because of our military
Click to expand...

Why does our military need to continue to grow? We are already the world's biggest superpower by far. Even if we cut the military spending that would be the case for the very forseeable future. I don't think we need big government social programs anymore than we need an even more bloated military but personally if we're going to spend money I'd rather it was on our people than more war. All that "power" gets us is the need to stick our nose where it doesn't belong and play world police.

Do you where our our military cuts come from, Soldiers pay, and soldier benefits. There is no such thing as a tank car dealer. and for those men and women already get nothing for what they do. And our military needs to stay up to date, which means research developing new things. New equipment, **** breaks and gets old. Its ok though, obama cut the military, and gave everyone an obamaphone!! And its not like we just go to war to go to war. "Some" people like to fly planes into buildings and kill Americans. And those people must be eliminated.

We spend more than the next 10 biggest defense budgets. Our spending accounts for 37% of all the military spending IN THE WORLD> Exactly what level of spending more do you think we should be at? How many more trillions is the right amount? And the military hasn't shrunk one bit under Obama. It's just as bloated and active as ever. Please cite where the cuts have taken place, not where they are "rumored" to take place. If you're talking about the proposed cuts coming up you're talking about something Republicans voted for. So big government spending is good when it's on war but bad when it's on people at home?

Social programs bad, death machines good. Just trying to make sure we're on the same page. Why do we have to cut soldier pay first? Couldn't we start with the obnoxious waste on something like this:

As long as there are black budgets we have no idea if Obama cut the military. With all his bullying around with Iran and threatening to use any means to pre-emptively use force to stop Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon that can "officially" change at any second, with Obama or Romney.

Pisses me off to see the Pentagon support the expansion of "private contractor" use so they can get away from following the Constitution. What pisses me off more is that these "private contractors" get paid far more than our soldiers who I feel most are in it because they feel they are doing something good for our country.

Well I'd prefer to see people lazy than dead. And you're right plenty of woman and chlidren who never did anything wrong in foreign countries see our death side. Wrong place wrong time for them. But how much spending is enough? If our military needs to get bigger when would it be big enough for your liking? 50% of our economy? 75%? 100?

If you ever served you would know how little we get paid and how poor our equipment really is, this coming from someone in the conventional unit with the MOST funding.

Strong this. When funding gets cut we get less training and are less combat effective when the need arises, can't fix our equipment, and our benefits get cut. I barely make $2.00 an hour and some of you think they should cut that more?

Our military is cutting soldiers left and right to meet the amount the government wants gone. People are getting kicked out for anything and everything and a lot of them are very good soldiers who do their job very well. And, unlike you, I've seen it first hand.

Obama has repeatedly called out for a Civilian Military that is just as powerful and just as well funded as our real military.

It has even been added to Obamacare, you should seriously start looking into these activities and the people involved.

See the Invalid Link Removed, page 1312:

The people who prepare and stay calm, yet alert and aware are the ones that will survive. The system is literally collapsing on itself and we're witness to it and some people are still in denial.

Some can call us whackos, looney tunes, etc. but say what you will. The ones that are aware will be the ones that will be helping the ones that remained asleep, should there be enough to go around. I'm not making sensationalist claims, because I'm off my meds LOL. I continue to try and tell people not to underestimate this matter. **** is already hitting the fan.
 
There is a rumor going around (possible) that these threats are a false flag. Fake accounts that have been setup with government software to create panic and widespread fear propaganda to create a large enough national security threat to ignite the rioting and intice real individuals to start making threats and jumping in on the bandwagon. Either way, this is a powder keg and another false flag is just the match it needs to set the explosion.
