this is so unfair. How dare you actually quote what she says. We are not supposed to know what an ignoramus she is. It doesn't matter, she cares. Its what she feels that matters, not what she knows (or should I say, doesn't know).
Stimulus was about buying votes. It succeeded.
My wife and I are fairly successful. I grew up in Detroit and moved to Houston about 40 years ago. At this point, my wife and I live on our investments. I have looked at Detroit real estate. There are some very nice homes (built in the 20s for the auto execs) that are still in nice shape and at very reasonable prices. However, to live in Detroit you would have to pay about 7% state income tax and about $10,000 per year in property taxes. It is still cheaper to pay four times as much for that type of home in Houston because your income taxes are like $5000 per year and you pay no income taxes. Detroit just isn't economical if you have income.
Hmmm, 100 - 47 = 53%. Coincindence?

Economy Shrinks Due to Military Cuts

First, you don't know that defense spending cutbacks cause this or not. It could just have easily been all those thousands upon thousands of small businesses cutting back in anticipation of Obamacare costs. So, don't just parrot what the MSM says. Secondly, I am glad that the president's focus is on gun control, gay marriage, and Immigration reform. I am sure that all of these issues will improve the economy. yeah, that's the ticket.

Tale of Two Cities

I grew up in Detroit. Starting with former mayor Jerry Cavanaugh there has been no city with a more activist government then Detroit. Detroit received more money (e.g. a huge model cities program) than any other city on a per capita basis. And, now, a generation later, what do you have?
so, this person is thankful that the woman with which he had created a life was able to kill that life? I am an old, white male. obviously, in this day and age, no longer of any political consequence. But, the shame I would feel at the killing of a life I had helped create would be overwhelming. How do you answer to your conscience or your god for that act? How would I ever forgive myelf? This is when I just shake my head. I will never understand the left.
And these fools wonder why we have 1.5% economic growth and all the resultant problems.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, .... At the current sales of guns (thank you very much Obama!) the gun companies will just buy a bank. Not a problem.
Paul Krugman wrong? Gosh, how could that be? Wasn't he a noble lauerate just like Obama?
