9:37 PM me: you watching the DNC? 9:38 PM am8v: yeah, you? me: yeah 9:39 PM I feel bad for these people am8v: which people me: but they are so ignorant am8v: who? 9:40 PM me: the people speaking all these citizens 20 minutes 10:00 PM me: you a mccain or obama man? by the way mccain VEEE PEEE choice tomorrow morning 10:02 PM am8v: yeah, so i hear obama 08 over here if i have to choose but i would align myself as an indepnedent but nobody cares about them lol me: haha 10:03 PM am8v: you? me: i don't see the difference between them am8v: ???how? me: name some differences that will actually happen am8v: well, theres is no way i can predict if theyll happen tho 10:04 PM me: sure you can US signed pact am8v: maybe by the votes me: says out of iraq by 2011 unconditional neither is that knowledgeable on the economy, taxes will go up for everyone no matter what 10:05 PM universal health care wont happen, but both want similar reform to make it cheaper both are kinda tree huggers abortion will continue to debate forever education is a difference but all I see happening is more of the same shit 10:06 PM am8v: honestly, you cant predict the us signs things left and right it doesnt really matter; e.g., north korea still on terror list me: yeah but coallition and nato signed too so were all alone on it too plus obama wants out mccain said out by 2013 so basically same in my mind 10:07 PM worst damage is alrready done anyway am8v: not really mccain votes 95% with bush me: 90 but that's not that bad am8v: 95 most recently me: everyone says with bush but really 10:08 PM its what bush HASNT done that fucked us he promisded us humble foreign policy he reversed = fuckup he said good energy policy nope am8v: what you don't do is reflected by how you vote me: tax cuts = did it and economic success after 9/11 10:09 PM Democratic/Liberal ideas are a contaigious disease they sound good "were going to lower your taxes, giver you this, give you that, blah blah blah" but you just cant do it 10:10 PM am8v: we're run by politicans, thats the way it will most likely be for a long time, and its pretty certain that obama is lesser of two evils if you think about it me: fed govt should run military and that's about it am8v: plus, bush maybe not be the smartest, but the people he surrounds himself with, like mccain is dangerous me: states can run roads, regulations, laws local govt same that's it if we did that you know how much better it would be? 10:11 PM you cant blame bush for last 8 years some of it yes but some no look at clinton in the 90s am8v: the state already controls highways and such me: he did nothing NOTHING am8v: its not bush himself its the administration me: fed dot controls interstates, etc 10:12 PM but clinton just crossed his fingers for 8 years and rode a 1400% economic increase mainly thanks to regan am8v: even if the federal government controls roads 10:13 PM thats a small part of running the country @ the tax giveaway killed the federal budget 10:14 PM the bush administration is messy and doesnt know whats it doing me: http://www.wallstats.com/deathandtaxes/framing.html 10:15 PM am8v: thats clearly reflected w/ the way they handlded katrina (dropping traiilers in flood zones), 6 billion a month for iraq. etc me: its mismanagment but its because these organizations are seldom used 10:16 PM eg: military had no idea how to fight insurgents kicked iraqs ass in reg war in a week fema katrina it had never been that bad am8v: bush let michael brown run fema guy had no clue what he was doing me: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/graphics_at2.shtml?5day?large#contents 10:17 PM am8v: the only way to judge a candidate is to see how they vote, and hope they continue that me: by the way cat 4 hurricane headed for new orleans am8v: lol thats unfortunate me: Ihonestly really don't care how it ends up am8v: you should though me: neither really has anything that I really like except mccain with his energy policy am8v: we're the people that are getting hurt the most when we grow up 10:18 PM me: were already fucked am8v: if we vote the right way, we'd be in less trouble me: romney was the only one going for our generation think of it this way if you have cadidate x and y x you agreee with on all or close to all issues 10:19 PM but don't think they can deliver candidate y and you agreee on some/most issues but you think they can make things happen who ynnagoing to vote for am8v: well, the quesiton is 10:20 PM how do you know the candidate "might or will" deliver me: well ex is obama with universal health care it just wont happen 10:21 PM bottom line is this Im still dissapointed waiting for someone with good energy policy reform massive monetary policy reform am8v: how do you know obams plan wont work me: foreign policy that makes sense less govt am8v: a HUGE revolution won't occur unless something drastic occurs me: universal health care simply wont work 10:22 PM think about it am8v: like an invasion on our soil people won't be in that mindset me: big pharma and healthcare is multi-billion dollar indutries all those jobs and revenues lost and then people have to pay more! 10:23 PM am8v: yeah, thats more on honesty though me: besides vaccines and school-mandated checkups am8v: corruption and big business is a different issue me: I havent been to the doc for an illness since age 6 am8v: romney wasnt for us either me: 10 fucking year s am8v: you're an exception me: I wouldn't want to pay thopse year s am8v: romney flip flopped 10:24 PM wanted to increase military spending me: that's ok military spending is money well never regret spending am8v: outsource our jobs except that it would double our debt and we need money from foreign countries now me: were already in too deep 10:25 PM national public debt will always exist its just internationalal debt and sovreinty am8v: debt doesnt have to always exist its just that we're so used to it we've resigned ourselves to this state forever me: you cant pay off $10 trillion am8v: it'll take a long time but you can. me: its no longer about how much in numbers its about percent of GDP 10:26 PM look at japan their def is like 900 trillion yen 10:27 PM am8v: they shouldnt be our role models though me: even with fiscal responsibilty am8v: recession me: without about a 50% tax rate we can barely even afford to service the debt am8v: if we didnt spend 6 billion every month on iraq that might help a bit 10:28 PM and plus, japan survives on low interest rates me: wed waste it here on medicare plus govt cant control outsourcing that's corp choice 10:29 PM am8v: the gov't already controls the coporations me: only by high taxes that's why they leave and every time we reduce the deficit we go into recession 10:30 PM am8v: the only way to get, the way i see it is to make the country built on higher wages gradual so it isnt inflaiton 10:31 PM its not easy, outsourcing is also a probllem me: americans have to lower their standards weve been on an all you can eat do what you want lifestyle we cant afford and now foreign investment has to foot the bill 10:32 PM and buy us out am8v: exactly, a change in the way we think is very important too me: us will be up and down for a while at least 50 years with markets especially drving the game people will have to rough it out am8v: we have to cut costs, tax the higher class and tax the lower classes less yeah, its gonna be hard me: you cant tax high class more 10:33 PM and poor have to be taxed more they get a free ride they pay nothing and get everything am8v: the higher class is gonna have to sadly take a beating for a while if you want to close the gap 10:34 PM the reason we have poverty (i know i'm overgenarlizing) me: yeah you cant do that because they wont want that am8v: is because of education, housing me: they'llsay fuck this any other country will let us be rich Im out 10:36 PM am8v: yeah, thats true maybe we're done me: no 10:37 PM were not done its just extremely complex you can solve every issue you just need to figure out how to tell the people am8v: the kind of solutions that you're thinking about requires a massive overhaul we have to start all over me: "listen the fuck up - we know how to handle this, we got it, trust us, and back the fuck off for say...5 or 10 years) 10:38 PM and hope they listen and you can do it am8v: theres a very slim chance that people will accept that me: iraq:L get out energy: nuclear!!! lower taxes kill social programs am8v: i think... the country is basically done for then. me: moneyL gold standard 10:39 PM am8v: once again, that requires radical thinking a radical leader would never get into the oval office and even if we do need radical change, there are way too many special interest groups everybody looking out for themselves me: its doable 10:40 PM they have before am8v: the people would have to be brainwashed when? me: look how these programs started fucking FDR those dumbasses let him in 4 times? fuck four more years...four more terms am8v: fdr essentialy created trusts 10:41 PM me: fdr essentially fucked us forever am8v: trusts that own all the money + industries so maybe its been done before, but it wasnt positive i don't want to sound like an anarchist or anything, but theres honestly little hope for us too many big mistakes 10:42 PM me: yeah but its still possible Obama is a good start Ill give you that hes got the right idea am8v: :p lol thats why i support him me: just not the issues think of this mccain wants 100 new nuc plants we could do that and have all that energy clean cheap renewable 10:43 PM and all those jobs plus industry if we go now China, India, Japan they will all need a lot of power soon we can export parts to them am8v: mccain does want nuclear, but he would allow oil companies to drill wherever they want 10:44 PM where as obama suppots 150 billion over the next 10 years for alternative energy (wind, electricity) me: wind and solar duck my friends mom is head of central hudson he told me how bad wind and solar are nuclear is fine IMO 10:45 PM am8v: wind and solar maybe arent as effective but if executed on the scale obama is proposing it can work if wind and solar really sucked, we'd be seeing it in the news me: its so ineffieicent no because its a huge markey *market 10:46 PM how can investors make more money they KNOW that fed govt will buy into alternative wind and solar seem easier than nucleanr less controversy am8v: scientiifc studies are done me: but less efficent am8v: those studies arent influenced by poltiics, generally me: so they'llmake more money on solar and wind and ethanol 10:47 PM and I think Obama really is a little dumbfounded on what to do they pretty much proved he wasnt ready 10:48 PM they always said hes too broad and stuff am8v: how so? me: nobody bought it and then they ask him gas policy he says to inflate your tires thats not policy 10:49 PM am8v: yeah, maybe that wasn't the smartest thing to say that doesn't reflect his policy 10:50 PM me: but he never backed it up he has no policy on it am8v: its not like mccain never something stupid me: hes just says invest in green tech very generic yeah but his mistakes are like iraq borders pakistan haha am8v: http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/newenergy lol, imo mccain makes a lot more stupid mistakes when talking 10:51 PM me: Enact a Windfall Profits Tax to Provide a $1,000 Emergency Energy Rebate to American Families. am8v: he has his plans me: wheres that $$ going to come from? am8v: he may be vague in his "inspiration" speeches me: and why cant we tap our oil? our oil is like me telling you hey mike Ive got everything you need for 60 years 10:52 PM by the end of 60 years, youll need to find something else am8v: thats why we need to start early and find other sources me: and you might need some help for a few year now but for a good 50-60 years I can supply you with everything you need but if you want, you can find something else now and need help until you find it 10:53 PM and all those 60 years will be gone it only makes sense to rough it out now we can get oil out of the ground by end of 2010 and then use that as needed but set benchmarks to be off it lets just say hypothetically 10:54 PM am8v: thats fine with me, if we have a timetable, unlike iraq me: we have enough oil for until 2100 lets rough it until we tap it and by 2050 be pretty much off it and by 2075 off it totally and the rest we export as profit 10:55 PM everything is possible think about it 1950 socially we were fucked now were practically perfect nobody would have dreamed 10:56 PM am8v: theres way too many little variables to account for but what you said i agree with 10:57 PM it seems more obama than mccain supportive though me: I don't know as I said I really don't support either I think Ill be surprised either way with what happens and rough it out but I think weve outlined everything needed to save america in about an hour how old are you? 15? 10:58 PM am8v: yeah, that was constructive lol me: im 15... so in 20 years Peabody Lei 2038 *2028 am8v: ftw. its too bad we were born during a crisis period me: how can they counter us "we saved america at age 15" am8v: assassination? 10:59 PM me: what do you mean too young? am8v: lol, yeah me: haha cancell medicare, medicaid, social security take all the leftover money spread it out even and say well you lost a little but you saved everyone forever 11:00 PM am8v: yeah, the power must be tempting 11:01 PM you're not on mobile are you? me: no
