    United states is already in a bad shape economy wise. i don't think, it could get worse. Even if it do get worse, it would be slightly. the real concern here is Europe Debts, If Europe gets out of a debt, American economy would certainly improve. With lots of money being pumped in on Wednesday, it is in all likelihood that American economy may improve.

    A city utility??!?!?!?!?

    @BW, look...

    You try to strong-arm your opinions with phrases like "most people think", or like you did above, "it is not many that do not equate"... You take your pathetic opinions and desperately hope that, if you claim that "most people agree", that we will think you speak for the majority. The people on DP aren't that stupid.

    It's become pretty damn obvious that you NEVER know what you are talking about. You never write from any sense of experience, and you lie - you just lie. By lie, I mean that you write what you HOPE is true, and you don't even bother to do a Google search to verify anything you say. That's why nobody here takes you seriously and your posts are regarded as sad jokes.

    Case in point: Hitler was NOT the founder of Fascism. It dates back to the Roman Empire. Mussolini founded modern Fascism in 1921, twelve years before Hitler came to power. Once again, you have ignored the facts of my previous post. You lied. You are a liar. You can't even bother to educate yourself.

    When Mussolini became Prime Minister of Italy, the first thing he did was disband the Senate, which were composed of aristocrats appointed by King Victor Emmanuel IV. He instituted a Parliament, that was elected by the people of Italy. He allowed women to vote - one of thee first countries in Europe to do that. And he was responsible to the King, who could fire Mussolini at any time. The PM and Parliament were completely totalitarian and sought to control every aspect of the people's lives.

    Does this sound like your dictionary definition to you, @BW?

    Lastly, Hitler was not simply a thug. If he was, he never would have led Germany. Hitler was an evil genius. That is much worse than a common thug. Uh, is that "suspect for cross-examination"?

    Seriously, haven't you noticed that you are almost always COMPLETELY WRONG? Honestly, don't you have any sense of self-respect at all? Don't you?

    Oh, do you think Obama is to blame for the failed cleanup of the Gulf oil disaster???

    Corwin, I suggest you pass it along to Merriam-Webster's Word Central - it is just cursory but does include the dictatorship that you previously dispelled that I found interesting.

    Hitler was nothing but a thug the German people listened to - I would consider neither to be geniuses for their efforts.

    BW, I suggest that you re-read what I wrote. It's history and it's true. And it's an historical fact:
    @BW, facts suck to you, don't they? Or why don't YOU explain to me where Fascism came from, explain if Mussolini was a fascist and if he came to power before Hitler, hmmm???

    I think a worldwide recession is approaching, what with the ridiculous social programs in Europe and Greece. Of course, if you buy my ebook in my signature, it will all be ok... LOL

    -

    Sorry the definition does not suit your taste Corwin, as I suggested take it up with Webster about dictatorship and fascism being entwined, tell us how it comes out - the next thing you will be raving about is Hitler the genius was not a dictator.

    By the way, your creepy politics and slander are voted out of power, or your just pretending till November when things will be right again......we are all waiting for your moment.

    "Raving"? that's what you are known for, isn't it? Isn't that why no one takes your posts seriously? Is it because your politics are creepy and you slander anyone you don't like, hmmm???

    You've got more static than a radio.

    Do you seriously ignore history books in favor of the dictionary?

    Wasn't Fascism invented by the Roman Empire? Do you know the difference between Fascism and Nazism? Isn't Fascism centered on the State, while Nazism is centered on Race?

    Do you think Obama is to blame for the failed cleanup of the Gulf oil disaster???

    Really Corwin, get a hold of yourself. :rolleyes:


    Merriam-Webster's Word Central

    Main Entry: Na·zi
    Pronunciation: nät-s, nat-
    Function: noun
    : a member of a German fascist party controlling Germany from 1933 to 1945 - Nazi adjective
    - Na·zism /nät-siz-m, nat-/ noun


    Webster does not mention the Roman Empire Corwin however the Nazi party again by Websters view was fascism so to repeat if you do not think the genius Hitler was a Fascist or now a Nazi take it up with Webster or anybody else on the planet because you may be the only delusional person on earth who has not jet gotten the message - now be a good little boy / crusader and run along.....hopefuly November will be good to you because otherwise I have a feeling you are going to need more help than even the Democratic Health Legislation can afford to fix you and you know how those Democrats like to spend your money.

    I'd say most would find the liberal agenda fairly fascist. Here is a copy of the fascist agenda put forward by one famous liberal. Overall, a good example of how our current regime thinks.

    I can appreciate the need to pick at semantics when all practical arguments have worn out. I do it myself. I'll consider your failure to address my little comparison as an acknowledgment of it's validity.

    The dictionary is NOT a history book. The dictionary is NOT an encyclopaedia. Why don't you do some independent research and come up with your own reasoned argument instead of just blindly citing a dictionary definition that you freely admit you cannot understand or even explain?

    Sol, tell me - if you are so insistent that Nazism is Fascist, can you explain to all of us the difference between Nazi fascism, and Itallan fascism, and Spanish fascism? Or will this be yet another embarrassing question you will TOTALLY IGNORE?

    It's like with all your other posts. No research, no reasoning. You're not able to compare the Fascism of the Roman Empire, or Italian Fascism, or Spanish Fascism, are you?

    Wow - 117 words in one incomprehensible sentence? And I see how you connected the Nazi party to the Democrats! Neat, that!

    From the "Word Origin & History Dictionary"
    Fascism - 1921, from It. partito nazionale fascista , the anti-communist political movement organized 1919 under Benito Mussolini (1883-1945); from It. fascio "group, association," lit. "bundle." Like fascism , originally used in English in its Italian form, as an Italian word, influenced by the Roman fasces (q.v.) which became the party symbol of the Roman Empire.

    "The fasces was a bundle of wheat with an ax in the center, bound together by cord. Roman magistrates used it as the official symbol of fascist authority of the Roman Empire."
    - Encyclopedia Britannica

    Wasn't Fascism invented by the Roman Empire? Do you know the difference between Fascism and Nazism? Isn't Fascism centered on the State, while Nazism is centered on Race?

    Can you read the Encyclopedia Britannica?

    Do you think Obama is to blame for the failed cleanup of the Gulf oil disaster???
    Slated????

    You know you have really stabbed BW where it hurts when he ignores what you've written.

    @BW, Do you think Obama is to blame for the failed cleanup of the Gulf oil disaster???

    Corwin, you are obsessed - get a real life.


    The Edenist unlike the Christians have nothing to do with the calamity in the Gulf as per your culpability. There is no failed clean up - Alan in charge was an excellent choice for the lead representative for the gov't and a credit for the response so far by the Administration.

    Those working on the cleanup should not have their earnings deducted from pending claims.

    Another feather in the cap for legislative jurisprudence.

    Rather than using the pretext of 911 as the Republicans in restricting the use of gov't benefits for the general public the electorate may come to realize the usefulness of appropriate legislative enactments for the welfare of the nation during times of need.

    By the way the Democrats are enacting legislation by 60 vote majorities than the simple majority prescribed by law.


    * Mia, I can not be blamed for you and Corwin being handed your asses in the past election so why don't you two think of something better to do than make fools of yourselves.....come November do not blame the liberals when you fall short again, OK.

    @BW, I cannot be blamed for you being handed your ass by this board, and by all the facts against you. So, why don't you think of something better to do, rather than make a fool of yourself again? Come November, do not blame the Republicans when you fall short again.

    O.K.?

    Edenist? Christians? WTF?

    Have you seen Obama's Coast Guard stopping boats from cleaning up the oil? Have you read about Obama refusing help from over 16 nations? Have you watched as Obama refused help from Canada, who is experienced in capping oil leaks like this and actually run drills?

    Will you ignore these facts? Of course you will. You Hate Facts and IGNORE anything you don't like. Don't you think we all expect that from you by now? And, when you are caught, you fling insults like an angry monkey flinging his own poop, don't you?

    I'm not exactly sure how to take that. "Handed your assess"? What are you talking about? You assume I voted for McCain.

    I think a better statement would have been, "the people of America have chosen poorly".

    Me, I prefer to choose wisely.

    I'm just going to say this to all of those who I see fighting on this thread:

    It isn't the president's fault, we would still be in this global economic hole no matter who was in the office. They can neither prevent nor solve it... they can try but no one can solve this problem. As for how it started, yes the banks are at fault... however it's also the people who caused the problem. Credit works well, but when abused it causes problems. To those who believe that we are screwed forever and ever, this isn't over just yet... but it will be eventually. The economy has a pitfall every now and then, it will solve its self.

    Did not realize anyone was fighting. And no, its not the president's fault, no more than it's his job to fix it. If he would do his job, the problem would solve itself. The blame lies squarely on those that are in charge of manipulating the flow of money and rule of law.
