Debt Ceiling for Dummies

[DJD]

Wow this thread has veered of course. I completely disagree with you guys that feel making and keeping your money is bad or part of the problem. What kind of thinking is that? So, I should work my butt off, do without some things while investing in my future and my kids future and then have someone say I'm wrong and should be sharing more? To who? The idiot who wanted to party and never grow up? The welfare babies? The illegals? The loser who would rather scam the system than work? The man who didn't attend any professional development courses?
How about the problem is the gubment who spends more than they have? How about the crooked ways of the Unions? How about the crooked legislators and non qualified potus? Since when did a tax paying, law abiding American citizen that plays by the rules become the problem??? Are you kidding me?!?!?!?!??!?

you believe taking money out of the economy drives it, interesting... Recently a business owner said to me " why pay an American 10 dollars an hour when you can get a Mexican to do it for 8 "... Would that be your thinkin also?

No I believe that attacking folks who make money and pay their way and are doing their job is wrong. I believe that the garbage that comes from politicians about the rich not doing their part is bull. The truth that I see everyday is that the politicians don't do their job. They blame big business, wealthy and high income families for the mess they created. I believe you have bought into that junk.
As far as an (illegal i guess u meant) Mexican getting paid less than an American.....you made my point for me. The politicians didn't or won't do their job. They keep sidestepping the real issue which is they have refused to control the borders. They give these folks tax layers money. They let them gain foothold in this country to the point that they can dictate how the potus votes can go and now your trying to twist that around??? I wish they all received amnesty and were put on the payroll and TAXED like you and I.

If my boss didn't pay me well I would go elsewhere because it's my choice not the gubments choice. If I couldn't get a job I would look into starting my own company. I'm responsible not the gubment.

I believe that if corporations had incentives to stay in the USA to manufacture goods they would. I also believe Unions are a big problem in why corporations find labor elsewhere.
