    If I could give you those little green points, I would but it keeps telling me :

    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Obamanation again.

    :)

    "Toast" is what the dollar will be soon if those printing presses keep going.
    "QE" should stand for something else other than "Quantitative Easing".

    Blue Star, the recovery is well under way.

    When you are the cause of the problem you should learn from those who have solved it.

    The success of the present Administration economic recovery is being upgraded for the year to a 3.4 to 3.9 growth in GDP.

    No doubt further upgrades will occur before years end.

    For a recovery to occur you need at list 10% (double digit) increases in GDP. Oh breeze... You crack me up.

    What you are seeing is inflation and not economic growth. Obama and the Democrats took out the credit card and maxed it out. It's going to feel good for awhile. That is until the bill comes.

    Government waste means a substantial portion of the stimulus money was wasted. and real growth is being stifled.

    If the 1970s timeline holds up. The US has a couple of years of moderate growth until the inflation catches up with it.


    1973-75 Recession (Democrat Majority House/Senate Stimulus)
    1976 Jimmy Carter = 2008 Barry Obama
    1977
    1978 Inflation fueled Growth
    1979 Low Unemployment
    1980 Recession
    1981-82 Recession


    The Labor Department said Thursday morning that the number of people filing for unemployment benefits rose to 410,000, up 25,000 from the previous week
    The Consumer Price Index rose 0.4 percent. The core index, which excludes food and energy costs, looked relatively tame, rising 0.2 percent.

    Clothing Prices to Rise 10% Starting in Spring
    Cotton has more than doubled in price over the past year, hitting all-time highs. The price of other synthetic fabrics has jumped roughly 50 percent as demand for alternatives and blends has risen.

    Breeze, you do know that you've shot your wad on DP, right? That everyone knows that you make up everything you write? That absolutely nothing you write is believed or respected in any way?

    I ask this sincerely - what do you get out of this? Do you enjoy embarrassing yourself? Why are you here - are you lonely? Look, I'm not trying to make a joke, I sincerely want to understand why you lie so much.

    I have tried to ask him to post in his native language and let us try to figure out what he is writing with no response. He is wrapped up in his imagination of a garden of eden which probably is in his "conscience" or some other new age belief. I agree with the assessment that no one believes or respects his comments, I am surprised that anyone attempts to converse with him, unless they are just egging him on. I do get quite the chuckle every time I read his posts, they can be quite entertaining. Sometimes I can't decipher anything, but that is like reading the English directions of something made in China.

    Its pure entertainment. Without it, we'd have no one else to counter reality. He has to be using a translator. That much is for sure. Everything reads like Engrish on tiger motherboard manuals. ;)

    And that's the crux of it right there. Breeze posts in isolation. He ignores responses and is incapable of engaging in dialog.

    Health Care Reform is a legislative enactment the reactionaries are unable to live with and fittingly will be put to the test publicly due to its enactment into law.

    The purpose of sound legislation and a national economy accommodative to all its citizens has been the successful agenda of the present Administration. The looming clouds of disjuncture are manifests of the oppositions previous failures that all good citizens recognize and will stand firm against in proper resolve.

    ^ I also love how he completely ignores any response to his posts, but rather chooses to go on posting out of context quotes he's googled.

    You're right, he does live in isolation.

    Well, he does post in isolation. His last post is exactly like that - in another WTF moment Breeze pulled the subject of health care out of his ass. He can't engage in dialog.

    But if it wasn't for Breeze Wood there would be no debate. It's nice to hold your beliefs but it's better when someone questions it and points out the inconsistencies. From what I can see, the bullshit runs thick on both sides here. And, surely you don't enjoy talking to yourself and being right all the time.

    DJIA 12,391.25 + 73.11


    A little surprising the markets maintain the positive strength amid the turmoil world wide and the domestic political uncertainties that are emerging across the country. The support of the Administration for the Stimulus Legislation and Monetary Policies presently in place are continuing to strengthen the economy as demonstrated by the DJIA and the other indices.

    Breezewood is his own worst enemy in this thread. His continuation here is the "politically correct" version
    of economics.

    So, what do you believe ?
