Bla-Bla-Bla.... Simple checks & balances, but it isn’t happening, earn a $100-spend a $1,000.
There’s no re-investment into big business, if anything, every shortcut to administer savings. Job reduction, healthcare cutbacks, pension reduction and discontinuation and so on.

Do you realize we have borrowed the money from the Chinese to pay for the War in Iraq? Can you tell me with a straight face that this is sound financial policy?
I find something a bit strange here; neither candidate has addressed the current problem with the highly unstable fuel prices/oil. Everyone here seems to have their own opinion as to why but I've heard the same BS from the days of gas rationing.
What I do find a bit curious is that China is second to the U.S. in crude oil demand and one of the reasons is that China is stockpiling huge amounts in reserve that is now only being questioned.
Is the American consumer repaying our dept to China?
There's also a report out today that crude prices are expected to diminish after the election.
