If Republican economics are so successful, why was Obama's stimulus necessary in the first place?

1. Now you're bringing up those pesky facts again.........

And putting a wrench in the thievery. Can't have that.....

2. You've got to be kidding!

That question wreaks of common sense. Get a grip.

3. You are not looking at the righ metrics. Republican economics work great for Wall

Street. They create Ponzi schemes, from which they make enormouse profits, and when they collapse, tax payers pick up the tab. The charts just shows the last part of the ponzi cycle, when tax payers were rescuing them. But you are leaving out the rest of the cycle when the Masters of the Unvierse were shovelling money into their bank accounts as fast as they could. Overall, it is a great system for Wall Street.

For the rest of us, not so much. But Republican ecnomics are not designed for the rest of us.

4. Because we haven't let the Republican plan run long enough, silly....

... the middle class still has a few dollars left.








Or in other words, for the same reason that Vegas has penny slots. They want ALL your money.

5. You are right. They do want all our money.

But facts are pesky little things. And the right questions asked at the appropriate time might have a little thought provoking impact every now and then.

It has been my experience that the right questions asked, have more impact than trying to explain ... especially if they are brainwashed by Faux News.

6. I agree. My cynicism meter is redlined today. Sorry.

7. It wasn't the Republicans fault!

It was all Clinton's fault!



That's what the right wingers say to that.

8. The median income of the United States slgihtly declined under Bush....

..if you adjust for inflation.

Still waiting for that prosperity to "trickle down."
