the depression is coming, there is no way to recover from the debt that this a-hole has heaped and will continue to heap on the good people of this country.....he has no f-ing idea what he's doing except following the radical marxist playbook, demonize and crush the private sector and cause as much dependence on government as possible... "bring it all down, man"... lying his ass off as he goes with a compliant media that hasn't stopped masturbating from the election yet.... he along with the despicable rats running congress will continue to crush business with more regulations and taxes via cap and trade, card check, the global warming hoax crap, this h-insurance disaster and on and on...they are insane and they're only getting started and you dems that voted these pukes into office should start apologizing to your friends, family and neighbors and particularly your children and eventually their children.....America's greatest enemies currently reside in the Whitehouse and Congress, they have taken control and are steering the plane

Instaed of spending the unspent bailout money why not just pay a debt. We owe China a friekin gazillion dollars. Give it back to the treasury.

One of Obama's bright light ideas is to provide Stimulus monies to the Union so they could hire Caulkers, people to go around and caulk windows etc:, that this would provide jobs. Maybe he does not realize that the average person goes to a building supply store buys a caulking gun, caulking and do their own caulking.

Maybe his thought is that it probably takes the average homeowner a day to caulk their entire house.

If the same job is Union though, that's 2 weeks of employment for at least 4 workers and a supervisor to get the windows done in the average-sized house.

You're not even mentioning the extra work they get when they have to go back and fix the job because it wasn't done right in the first place. It can be just like the roads in your town.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Exactly my point. Rt106 has been ripped up, paved, ripped up, paved (rinse and repeat) at least 5 times between Hope and East St, literally. They went though 3 engineers over something like a 4 year span.

Now they are repeating history underneath the RR bridge.

That's the problem with jobs that don't have performance-based raises.

It was reported yesterday that if the spending continues Moody's
will drop the US Treasuries rating down from their current Triple A Rating within 3 years.
