Good read.

He's going to save 43 billion by importing foreign drugs and negotiating drug prices?

Meantime ,Merck is laying off 5700 in the USA and you can't even trust the generic drugs made in this country let alone from some foreign drug bathtub operation.

That should do alot to help our job market and quality medical care.

you being sick is a scary thought
However, reality does bite and no matter who gets elected we'll pay for it in the end.

wow scott. Let me be the first to congratulate you on your wildly successfull plug business. If your CLEARING 250 K plus a year selling plugs, you have nothing to worry about and can succeed no matter what is thrown at you.

i'm scared because if this %$%$%$%$bum gets elected based on the numbers he's spouting what people have been calling a non-recession for the last year will be extended out so far it will be pathetic. I think it's all hocus pocus and the moron has no clue what he's talking about.

I don't know why you think your business is going to jump, the only way it's going to jump is if the economy improves to the point that people have discretionary funds to spend again and if this doosh thinks he's going to come up with all this money to fund his supposed budget then it's got to come from somewhere...like your and my pockets...no matter what he says right now.

karl, better yet, lets buy about 50 beachmasters direct and flip em on SOL for a 200% profit.

Or even better, we can start a retirement savings plan where everyone sends us 2,000 a month and we will invest that money in beachmasters. Well not real beachmasters, but pictures of beachmasters on paper. In 10 years, we will be millionaires.. Unless of course people want to trade the pictures in for real ones, but I have a friend in congress who can bail us out if we get into trouble..and get this... he will bail us out by billing the very same people who own the pictures.... its a perfect plan

And McCain will do what? drill baby drill??? please.




The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

-- Robert Frost

yep. a reall beachmaster is the equivalent of gold. You can have all the paper in the world with ink on it saying it is worth X but its value is only what we are told it is worth.

Some things never change......


“ The budget should be balanced, the treasury should be refilled, public Debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to WORK, instead of
living on public assistance.” -- Cicero , 55 B.C.

The simple answer is that he's not, nor is McCain going to balance the budget in 4 years.
