Hence...the government will also "create" jobs......by means of inventing them out of thin air.

Hi Badmutha,
If the Democrats gain control of all three branches of government, it is likely that taxes will go up....I agree. However, is that a good thing or a bad thing compared to what we are doing now...that is, living drastically in the red? I'm ok with raising taxes, Badmutha...in fact, it's likely unavoidable. But, if a significant chunk doesn't go towards the debt, then we will have problems.

Well lay your money on the table....and I will collect in 2012. If this country elects Barrack (dont call me Hussein) Obama...the #1 Liberal in the US....and hands an overwhelming majority to the democrats in the House and Senate.....then the things you "Expect"....might not be so apparent as they have been in the past.

I don't know, Badmutha...I think history argues against you on this one....just look at the Johnson years. He was probably the most liberal president in history and the Democrats had large majorities in both houses....and guess what...the economy was actually very strong in the 60s.

Well even if you say 2006 wasnt all that great.....then 2008 would be considered what??.... Disastrous?? Horrendous??
2 years of a democrat controlled Congress...imagine 4 years of of a democrat controlled Congress and the #1 Liberal as president.....I hopefully wont see you in the bread lines.....but if you are....make sure you and your fellow democrats go last....because you voted for disaster.

So, I take it you blame the recent economic down turn on the Democratic Congress....what a surprise. I've seen a couple of those "who gets credit/blame for the good/bad economy" between diehards from the left and right....they are a riot....
