With government floats of all rates and debt. So you can either have the government pay you up front and risk inflation (which is the case in China) or you can have the government pay on the back end and risk depression (which is what you have here).

Saloniks looking for the Magical Marxist Solution will be disappointed in the same proportions as their delusions.

I for one would LOVE to have a mortgage holder collapse. I would stop sending them checks. I would have instant 100% ownership in my home.

Huzzah!

I get about 90mpg that way.

Is to unwind the clock back to the late 1860's or so. The Bush admin and the Salon readers are more or less in agreement on that, but for different reasons. The Bush folks never saw a reg or law they liked and the Salon readers never saw a technological benefit they liked. Clearly the only solution is to radically do away with all urbanization and everything else that's happened in the last 140 years and go back to a pre industrial age where 90% of the people were self sufficient farmers and ruling class lived like feudal aristocrats over their own domain of serfs. If you can get the blacks and the women on board, you've got it made.

It's a dead heat between government and healthcare. Everything else is in the dumps. So let the banking industry flounder. We'll just 'innovate' in health insurance. And government just taxes its way to prosperity; at the state and local level that's absolutely true.

Then Salon readers would have to put down the Xbox and porn, and boil into the streets setting fires.

Those oldster fossils can be bamboozled to vote for anyone. Or no one. I elect pudding!!

MAAAATLOCK!!!!!

It will cool the earth and as a bonus will make PETAtards' heads explode.

There still wouldn't be enough bathrooms for all of you.

I'd be reading the restaurants weren't chi chi enough ?

Oh I'm sure there's someone out there proposing that too.

And their control of everything. Where's my Salon gold star cookie?

One list of obscure foreign language artsy bullshit enough?

It's all been straight up 100% bullshit. They could have done 1% of what they did to the same result. Why? Because they already had most of the useful facts at their fingertips before 911 and still did little if anything at all. And following 911, the 'terrorists' had already torn that page from their playbook. And worst case, a bombing here or there once every year or so? Big freakin deal.

Obama support is like any other cult; the Bush Cult, the Clinton Cult...You ask yourselves how 27% still support our current Fuckwit in Chief? So unless you have the Invisible Magic Liberal Candidate stashed in the back room somewhere, you're going to vote for Obama, furiously, more than once if you could.

Informed consent? Delayed entry to sex? A reasoned maturity?

the problem is not tyrants, it's their nutjob followers.

Does Salon report news? I'm sorry but what's this got to do with media heads talking to other media heads about how outraged they are about some other media heads?

Giant Angry Puppets!!!

Either it's a bailout or it's not. But what if we assume that investors are NOT entitled to every cent of interest and principal? What if we treated it like any other work-out and tell them at the mortgage banks they'll have to settle for a factor, say, 45%? Why should investors all be made whole just because they're very large? Why even have any stocks at all at that point when investors are insulate from all risk?

Is like making fun of MLK, Nelson Madela and Jesus. It's simply not done.

Obama's Presidency will actually blunt criticism from the right. Why? Because eventually they'll say something incredibly outrageous. At the same time Liberals mince around the nasty words and Black People in America, in the public space, are officially allowed to be offended at everything, anything. I just heard Paul Mooney ranting on NPR and it sounded like H Rapp Brown quoting Gil-Scott Heron while channeling the spirit of Malcolm X. Absolutely unchallenged for long strings of minutes at a time.

Why no European Sun Powered Cars? Because everyone else is ahead of 'energy' in the line of people taking those tax dollars out. Health care, welfare, high structural unemployment benefits, education, etc etc etc. They don't tax oil in order to be altruistic, they tax it because demand is largely price inelastic and they can count on it as reliable revenue stream in order to fund CURRENT obligations.

When she takes her panties off after that 3rd drink.

A) You're not allowed to make fun of black people. It's the law.

B) Black people are officially permitted to be offended at everything.

To protest their offense of the Religion of Peace. Sorry, I don't make the rules, I just follow them.

Personally chase them around with a vacuum cleaner like he's tormenting the cat?

you never go back

2/3rds of all American adults are obese, why is this worse?

He's generally offended by everything everywhere at all times.

Jackie Robinson something blah blah blah.

Is pretty much all anyone on ESPN has to say about baseball.

One wonders about the real world effective efficiency of having to produce 200 million cars worth of electricity using the coal fired plants we have or would have.

It will disturb the natural order of things and therefore must be opposed at all costs.

For depicting our prophet in a disrespectful manner.
