He's part of this bailout anyway.

Remember, he was in on the Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac scandal from day one along with numerous other democrats.

But to answer your question, liberals believe that everyone should be brought down to the level of the poor, so it's important to punish the achievers to make the poor feel better. It doesn't help the poor any, and in fact tends to hurt them ultimately, but it supposedly makes them feel that Obama is getting back at the rich folks. The German word for it is "shadenfreude."

Conservatives have a different philosophy. They want to elevate the poor and give them more freedom to make more money so they will rise up to the level of the achievers in society.

And unfortunately, Bush wasn't a conservative. If we can ever get back to a conservative way of running this country we'll all prosper. It may not be possible, but it's worth a try for the sake of our children.

The deficit has doubled in the last week while the democrats pay off all their rich constituents for getting them the election. It's sad.

@dlee4life The meaning of the pyramid and eye are exactly what you think it means.
they don’t have any meaning of their own…only what meaning you attach…and i can promise you that what i think it means is way different than what you think it means.

No. Cosimo D' Medici was responsible for the rebirth of culture. He was already wealthy. The Renaissance was the CAUSE of the rapid creation of wealth, not the result.

Well, there is a balance between being aware and questioning and also thinking there is a conspiricy behind every blade of grass. But it is always good to question, just be aware of your own internal motives to put a spin on something..

It is not a new problem, but the Internet has made it more visible. People have always created wealth and production that is not part of the market economy, and so is not measured. If you take care of your own child, clean your own house, grow your food, fix your car etc it is not part of GDP, bit if you hire it done it is. When students study, learn a skill, or a researcher creates a new knowledge it adds wealth, in the sense that it creates a productive resource, but does not show up on anybodies account as wealth. The government statistics counts both public and private education expenses as consumption not investment.
You could even argue that most of the wealth we have inherited from our ancestors that provide us with a good life are things that are not now and never were bought and sold in markets.

There is an often quoted saying " if you give someone a fish they eat for a day but if you teach them to fish they eat forever". The logical conclusion of this is that the knowledge is more valuable that the product.

Your question defines what is wrong with Americans.

hurry up, you in my way, honk the horn, the drive thru is backed up.

Get rich quick plans don't work!

My grandparents worked their whole lives living on less than they made, not borrowing money but paying cash after saving up for things they needed not wanted and retired with dignity.

So If you wife won't work you need a second job and turn off the cable and other thing you don't need.
