Today, the weather here is kind of ominous and though it definitely is not at all like what is going on in the SE part of our Country it still is kind of important to experience Spring maybe in a string of days not one day a week … sigh. I will survive make no mistake but sunshine no rain is lovely. I have had some negative interactions … the doubter’s haters and those who fear the unknown or who keep engaging in typical fear mongering via the interwebs
My response …
i respect your opinion, I may not agree but i will not call you names or think less of you. i do not know you, however i did vote for Obama and will again because Republicans/Conservatives have honestly proved themselves useless… they have no one in charge and those who call themselves leaders are proving they are not qualified to lead let alone the fact that they have no solutions only complaints. The solutions they do have would give advantages to the top 2% and that 2% has been getting breaks for far too long. If we had fair and balanced in Congress they would all work for the greater good but in our need and financial crisis the Republican Tea Party felt a new tone and moved toward race as a tool which they felt would divided and conquer causing or continuing the attack by ex-Governor Sarah Palin. In my opinion Bush, Cheney and Paulson all f’d us and because of that, i personally am subscribing to what works and that is the Government right now. We all need reminders every now and then about what happened in 2007 leading up to the 2008 Presidential elections. In some parts of the U.S., folks believe that the financial abyss or ditch we suddenly found ourselves in started slightly before the 2008 elections the fact is it started in 2007, maybe earlier. In addition, as Americans prepared themselves to vote for the next President of the United States. The idea that we needed the government to work for All Americans not bicker, fight or have tantrums was a no brainer right. However, our two party Political systems was failing to work as well and in the long run after some bold and nasty comments and or votes the Republican Tea Party decided this was their moment to possibly change American into something it is not and continue to do daily. I find it quite amusing and yes offensive that even today as the Political Party of No is clearly being rejected by their own constituents. It is becoming clear that they do not seem to be hearing the obvious buyer’s remorse being voiced with shades of a new possible dip or as they say double dip into that ditch, which scares me and pushes the need to be vocal about the financial web of deceit by the next generation of crooks and liars. Now, after a couple of years of suggesting people watch the House of Cards, a film created by CNBC’s David Faber. I will no longer do so because for one; the original was pulled and was replaced with what I think are fabrications, my take and it is truly sad because it was a film that was definitely worth the time. The original film definitely could have helped those still wondering, help you understand why Wall Street types, those capitalists like Bernie Madoff and others like him engaged in creative accounting, why AIG created a monster and the pay out by AIG to various Banks was big and how it worked its way overseas to become something too big to fail. Republicans want to continue on this same path of less regulation and people need to see it as it is. I wonder why after all that has happened since the mid-term elections would anyone with common sense feel this is the kind of Capitalism you want and if you are still expecting Republicans to solve our problems with every American in mind… I have to say you are foolish…
Capitalism does not mean firms should engage in cooking the books, secret transactions and or becoming bigger than their sum value or investing in schemes … that — is what happened …
We the People need capitalism with a small c and more regulation … with a huge R
