p.33
Despite mounting job losses (in the first nine months of 2008, a loss of some 1.8 million jobs, with 6.1 million Americans working part-time because they could not get a full-time job) and a decrease of 24 percent in the Dow Jones average since January 2008, President Bush and his
advisers insisted that things were not as bad as they appeared. Bush stated in an address on October 10, 2008, "We know what the problems are, we have the tools we need to fix them, and we're working swiftly to do so."
A close look at the fundamentals Obama had inherited on taking office should have made him deeply pessimistic: millions of homes were being foreclosed upon, and in many parts of the. country, real estate prices were still falling. This meant that millions more home mortgages were underwater future candidates for foreclosure. Unemployment was on the rise, with hundreds of thousands of people reaching the end of recently extended unemployment benefits. States were being forced to lay off workers as tax revenues plummeted."' Government, spending under the stimulus bill that was one of Obama's first achievements helped but only to prevent things from becoming worse.

Without liberals we would still be under good King George. Without liberals we would still be working 60 hour weeks. Without liberals
there would be no health and safety standards. Without liberals there would be no Social Security, or Medicare.

Where is the logic in your post, Gunneria?
If you admitted that you got into politics because of the impact on you of the philosopher of personal greed and egotism, Ayn Rand, but later had to deny it because it was bad publicity, you might be Paul Ryan.
If you want to destroy social security for others, but after your father died when you were 16, you used your father's social security survivor benefits to help pay for your education at Miami University of Ohio . . . you might be Paul Ryan.
If you say your budget plan was inspired by Roman Catholic teachings, but but nearly 60 prominent Catholic thinkers and leaders condemned it as heartless, cruel and un-Christian . . . you might be Paul Ryan.

Bullshit... worker's rights doesn't necessarily equate to liberalism. If anything, labor people are more conservative thinkers than others. The only reason they vote Democrat, is because Democrat politicians are anti-business and pro worker. That's not always a good thing. Unions have fucked our economy. When you pay workers more, the price of goods goes up. When the price of goods goes up, consumer confidence wanes. When consumer confidence wanes, people lose their jobs. Everyone wanted to get paid too much starting in the mid 80's and everyone got their jet skis and snowmobiles and their boats and big houses. Then that shit was taken from them in 2008. I saw that coming for 25+ years. I never spent more than I made. The ones that didn't got screwed. I don't care what "party" was at fault for the crash... it happened. It's too late to go into this in-depth, so hit me with your best shot, I'll get back to you later. Goodnight.

Oh, and FYI.... tradition fiduciary duties....are NOT law.
See, CEO can and will lower or even eliminate dividend payments if it's in the best interests of the company. See the CEOs FIRST responsibility is to the company....not the investors.

You can't read, Numbskull? Are you saying that only statues are laws? Hmmmm?
"Unless modified by statute, traditional fiduciary duties require
corporate officials to further the interests of shareholders". Except in the case of breaking the law, what other exceptions would there be?

Don't be stupid.
There are plenty of instances where a CEO would do something that
would reduce dividends.
Purchasing machinery, as an example.
If you were ever involved in a business above the level of changing
the french-fry oil, you could figure that out on your own.

Numbskull, the CEO can acquire fixed assets instead of paying dividends. However, it would add value to the investor's share. That is a distinction without a difference, but don't let me interfere with your quibbling.
Numbskull is a modest little man, with much to be modest about.
The original post was just a snarky (but nonetheless very funny) joke, but it raises a very good question. Why *ARE there so many healthy looking people driving around with disability license plates or placards? The answer is fraud and resource waste: Democrat sponsored and created fraud, and Democrat wasting of resources because they don't understand efficient resource allocation.
Let's tackle the inefficient resource allocation issue first. Why should 30 of the best parking spaces in front of a Home Depot be allocated to cripples, and then mostly go unused? Why should cripples get any preferential treatment at all? Aren't the loudmouth blowhard "advocates" for cripples constantly haranguing us that cripples can do anything that everyone else can do? But even if they can't, or at least can't do it without coercing help from healthy people, why do they get preferential parking, which again is mostly a waste of prime resources? It's simply galling to see the 30 best parking spaces in front of a big box store sitting there at no more than 10% occupancy.
As for the fraud, the system is designed to encourage it. Thanks to the Democrats, we already have become a nation that celebrates victimhood and ineptitude. People aren't encouraged to rise above circumstances that make life more difficult - instead, they're encouraged to wallow in self-pity and to make excuses for why they fail: there is an entire "learning disabilities" industry that slaps an alphabet soup of labels on children who act out and disrupt classroom, children who once were simply called deviants and delinquents and kicked out so the good children could learn. Now, there's money to be made by falsely classifying bad, disruptive delinquents as suffering from a "disorder", so naturally there has been an explosion of bogus learning disability diagnoses. Fake physical handicaps are exactly the same. There's a reward in the form of preferential parking for having a physical "disability", so bad and unethical people get a doctor to write a letter, and a sore toe or a mild case of arthritis turns into an extremely valuable parking pass.
Goddamnit, when I see someone pull into a cripples' parking space and get out of the car, I expect to see crutches or a wheelchair, or at the very least an oxygen tank for someone with a bad case of emphysema. Instead, you see people looking to be perfectly healthy practically doing cartwheels to the entrance to the store with a shit-eating smirk on their faces at how they beat the system. This is just wrong and needs to be undone. Those people who do have some kind of physical disability are just going to have to live up to their claims that they can do what everyone else can do.

Despite mounting job losses (in the first nine months of 2008, a loss of some 1.8 million jobs, with 6.1 million Americans working part-time because they could not get a full-time job) and a decrease of 24 percent in the Dow Jones average since January 2008, President Bush and his
advisers insisted that things were not as bad as they appeared. Bush stated in an address on October 10, 2008, "We know what the problems are, we have the tools we need to fix them, and we're working swiftly to do so." p33
A close look at the fundamentals Obama had inherited on taking office should have made him deeply pessimistic: millions of homes were being foreclosed upon, and in many parts of the. country, real estate prices were still falling. This meant that millions more home mortgages were underwater--future candidates for foreclosure. Unemployment was on the rise, with hundreds of thousands of people reaching the end of recently extended unemployment benefits. States were being forced to lay off workers as tax revenues plummeted."' Government, spending under the stimulus bill that was one of Obama's first achievements helped--but only to prevent things from becoming worse.

The "Baggers" aren't conservatives, you idiot, they are nuts. From that flip-flopping weasel Romney, to the sanctimonious weasel Ralph Reed, they are a bunch of double-dealing, con-artists. Goldwater would never recognize them as conservatives.

Thank the Liberals for the 40 hr. week?
Thank the Liberals for the 8-hour workday, overtime pay, and the federal minimum wage.
Thank the Liberals for Social Security, and Medicare.
Thank the Liberals for the G.I. Bill of Rights.
Thank the Liberals for the Clean Water Act.

Then they would have to eat each other.
Why did Wall Street take government welfare?
Why then did Bain Capital stiff creditors for $158.7 million, and take over $44 million from the employee pension fund of GS Industries that had to be replaced by the government, even though Bain Capital made a profit of $58.4 million for its partners, and $8.5 million for themselves? Hmmmmmmm?
God save us from the "Baggers", the false conservatives.

So, you are blaming the 8-hour workday, 40-hour week, overtime pay, the federal minimum wage, job health & safety standards, environmental restrictions, and union negotiated salaries for America's loss of jobs?
EXCLUSIVE: Romney Invested Millions in Chinese Firm That Profited on US Outsourcing
The GOP candidate decries China poaching US jobs. But at Bain he held a large stake in a Chinese company that did just that.

Please tell me what jobs Obama outsourced?
It seems though that your "Bagger" buddies shipped 2.4 million US jobs to China in the last decade. What kind of Americans are they? You know what kind of Americans they are, don't you? Ayn Rand (Greed is Good) Republicans.
Obama did, on a percentage basis, employ fewer Americans than previous Administrations, but that's what you guys wanted, wasn't it? Huh?

And you parrot partisans. People who have a financial stake in the outcome of the election.
That's why you should look for authoritative, non-partisan, experts, because that is as close as you can get to the truth, without being there.

That was a fair question.

That was pure, fact-free opinion. You know what people say about opinions, don't you? If I am wrong, then please supply non-partisan support for that statement.
> > > Get yourself a brain > > > for yourself and quit repeating what others say.
Other authoritative, non-partisan, experts? How many times has trickle-down economics worked? Ans.: Never in a democracy.
How many times has Keynesian economics failed? Ans.: Once, stagflation.
You want to stop Obama from increasing the national debt, but you support Ryan, who wants to cut taxes which will increase the national debt until at least 2020. How do you feel about that?
Reagan cut taxes, deficits exploded.
Clinton raised taxes, and the economy expanded.
Dub-ya cut taxes, and the economy tanked.

Well, tell me how having government out of the economy is going to help.
Reagan cut regulations, released the entrepreneurial genius of America and the S&Ls had him for lunch, and doubled the national debt.
Clinton allowed the Glass-Steagall act to be cut, and the banks went crazy under Dub-ya making toxic financial instruments that crashed the economy, and will probably take a decade to recover from. The banks got welfare, and the economy got the shaft. You want to deregulate polluting the environment, exposing more people to substances that can affect their health. You want to expose the public to more financial schemes like LIBOR? We invade a non-industrial county, and even though we spend about half of the worlds military budget (US + allies spend 5 times more than Russia & China combined), we are being chased out of the country?
Hellooooooooo! The government is supposed to protect American citizens, not expose them to risk.
The collapse of the "Housing Bubble" started under Dub-ya, unfortunately, except for an under funded stimulus package, due to Republican resistance, Obama continued the bail-out (corporate welfare) in the same manner as Dub-ya. Now the "Baggers" blame Obama for the consequences of the "Housing Bubble" collapse.
Juliet Carr, better known by her screen name Juliet Anderson and adored by fans as her adult film persona, Aunt Peg, died peacefully in her sleep Sunday night, January 10, at her home in Berkeley. She was 71.
Juliet was discovered by her friend, Kevin Fong, Tuesday morning, when he came to take her to a doctor s appointment.
I found her in her bed, Fong told Mark Kernes of Adult Video News. She looked like she was just asleep. There were no empty pill bottles, nothing out of the ordinary. Indeed, Juliet had left a phone message for her good friend, fine art sex photographer Michael Rosen, Monday evening, and she was very much in good spirits, mentally and physically, at the time.
She sounded cheerful, Michael says. She ended by saying Bye for now. I m thinking that leaving this message may have been the last contact she had
