Raise taxes. There's no other choice, and raise them on the richest Americans. Americans are paying taxes at an all-time historic low, the lowest in history, and this has been the case for decades. This is why so many problems began.

The richest are getting a free ride. It's insane. In the end, the bills have to be payed, and working men and women shouldn't see their benefits slash just to help the top 1%, which is what they continuously do. Oh yeah, and ending a whole bunch of wars, and making big cuts to the Pentagon would help dramatically. NAFTA has also got to be done away with.

Yes, I'm going to go there: you can blame Republicans for the failed economy. This all started with Reagan and his trickle down economics fascist policy, the biggest scam in history! NAFTA was also drawn up by Republicans, and George Bush. Bill Clinton, in an effort to look bipartisan, signed it. Republican philosophy = don't tax corporations. They'll create jobs for Americas. Nope. They ship jobs overseas. These people don't want to pay a cent on production. This is another reason why illegal immigration in the US is overlooked. Corporations make out like bandits on slave labor. Free Market Capitalism is a failure. We saw that yet again with Wall Street. Greed is a human trait. There needs to be regulation. Reagan allowed banks to buy up banks. That used to be prohibited. Now, one bank collapses, and a ton more go down with them.

For a country that's so anti-communism, they sure don't mind getting all their goods from China.

It's not a shock that every Republican Administration of the last 100 years has raked up the largest amount of debt. That wasn't until Obama, and quite honestly, Obama saved the auto industry, but the stimulus wasn't nearly big enough. Every economist has said this. He did some major things right, but where he went wrong was not going after corporations.

They came to Washington in their private jets, with their gold cups extended, looking for money. If you watched these idiots speak, it was unconscionable how removed from reality they are. They make billions of dollars, and one guy was going to get one million cut from his salary, and he freaked out. He thought he was going to be out on the street. They're still getting their bonuses, and this is with federal money!
