Transcript:
Joe: It feels like the economy is never going to turn around. Bob: Well, I'm optimistic about it, Joe. Good times or bad, nothing lasts forever, so the economic pendulum will eventually swing back, just as it always has. Joe: In our lifetime? Bob: Whoa, let's not get all pie-in-the-sky here. Joe: Of course... How silly of me.

What exactly is in place that will get the economy going? Seems like it’s hanging on a thread with nowhere to go. Maybe pie?

Here we go, again. The repubs are pointing fingers at the dems and nothing is getting done. Folks, the economy is OUR FAULT. We elected those bozos in Washington and in our various states. You want hope and change? You want jobs? Put somebody in Washington that you can trust. Fire the rest. Also, stop running your neighbor down. We’ll never get anywhere with the hate filled angst that is expressed in some of these comments. If these hate filled remarks are how you really feel, I am truly sorry for your misery. Please, let’s get togeher and regain our country, for all of us.

I meant to say thatthe dems are, also, pointing fingers at the repubs. Remember, when you point a finger there are three pointedback at you.

America’s greatest export is American jobs. China has the worlds largest trade surplus and economic growth while the USA has the world’s greatest trade deficit. and unemployment. Wall Street has recovered and Made in China is everywhere. Do The Math.

I would think everyone would be taking pleasure from the Third Summer of Recovery that we are experiencing. Don’t worry, be happy…

All in favor of 25% unemployment and 40% poverty rate, vote Romney in November. Just remember, all of his rich friends will do just fine. Everyone else, eh, not so well.

Dear Zoid…of course you would know! You know millions of liberals, and you’ve run the computer data on their vocabularies, and you understand perfectly….except the part about how there’s NO way you could know what ANY liberal would know OR think, because there are only TWO left alive in the Western Hemisphere, and neither of us are talking to you…because you are a jerk who doesn’t know that he doesn’t read minds…by the way, WE have been watching YOU…

If Europe goes belly up, and China’s policies catch up to them when they run out of workers (as Japan has), we could be in trouble. Remember the collapse of the Western Roman economy in the 5th century? It only lasted from about the 450s to about the 1100s.

Then the economy must be operating on an awfully d*mned narrow definition of “deserving”…
