I'll leave this little gem here,

[nynco]

Didn't think I would agree with Nynco on anything reading through the thread to this point but I will agree with the welfare to work/CCC program idea. Instead of just giving away money with little needed to qualify why not expect a return on investment? I'm sure there are more than a few on government programs that could pour concrete and asphalt. 2 birds with one stone I guess. The 90% tax rate thing though...yeah good luck with that. Seems like the surest way to push the best thinkers and businessmen into early retirement. I've said it before and I'll say it again, when push comes to shove these boys will have no problem taking the ball and going home.

I never said we should raise the tax rate to 90%. I brought up historical facts to show that taxes today are at ridiculously low levels. We have had the Bush taxcuts for the last 10 years. They lead to a market crash. What makes you all think lower taxes more will fix anything. Esp the fact that we have a revenue issue. Its pure insanity. Trickle down economics, Reaganomics, conservative supply side economics call it what you will its all the same has done nothing buy explode our debt. The text book definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

Post fixed. Nyco, you are sounding like a broken record. Yes, we know, Bush sucks, Reagan sucks, FDR is the best president ever. Yawn.

So what your sayin is there is no use in trying to change your mind....you're stuck in your ways.

I would say that less government is always good for the country. Its the same as saying less cancer is good for the body. If you like more cancer in your body you'd love more government too.

Ironically gov standards keep cancer causing carcinogens out of your food supply....

But latest studies show that listening to stupid gov members (especially the president) causes inner ear and judgement tumors.

I would expand that to include 90% of our elected officials too.

Only ones I think are worth a crap (off my head) are Ron Paul and Bernie Sanders.

Bernie for President

I would also say that governement officials watching pigs fly by on a conveyor belt hundreds at a time for 8 hours a day are not keeping any safer. I think the company has more interest in keeping its food safe since its reputation and company is on the line. But I'm talking about government waste in general.

Actually the company has more interest in bribing our gov to keep those regulations so you can crank up production. Killing people along the line because a cost benefit analysis. And if the news does not talk about it....... well kill away.

Great example is the lysteria outbreak about 8 years ago. Barely hit the radar. But killed A LOT of people.
