    I love these far left rants.

    You blame the republicans, the MIC, and Reagan for... what exactly? Giving America the biggest GDP? The biggest economy? Do you blame them for making America the richest country in the world? Are they at fault for our near perfect unemployment and our high standard of living?

    What is this republican rape of America? All I see is the most powerful country in the world.. or was that all Clinton's doing?

    A very fragile superpower at that, with increasing competition from the rest of the world, increasing deficit, increasing economic reliance on potentially hostile powers, increasingly weak (even if large) lower classes. Thanks to...I suppose we all know that. Not counting, of course, the effect of a decrease in stability, rising new wanne-be superpowers being world-class (pardon the pun) human rights abusers, increasing fanaticism, a sharp decline on personal liberty "for the sake of security", and all the crap that is going on in the world.

    What pisses me off about the Republican party is their bloody high horse hypocrisy. "Morality" "Family Value" "Religious Value" hah! From politicians' mouthes!? Not that the Democrats are any better. Politicians, the WORST Americans rule America. Jeez...

    Really, the two-party system is pathetic to its core. The less competition and diversity, the easier it is to establish a monopoly out of the simple fact that there is no good. Just less evil.

    What's it called when a bankrupt company gets court protection against debtors? Right now over half of the flight seats in the US are on bankrupt companies that still do business. The investors have more time to get their money out, the debtors can lose more money and the workers get to accept worse conditions in order to keep the company afloat.

    And yet someone thinks there's nothing fishy at all with the economy?
    If you're fighting fair you've made a miscalculation.

    Spetelhu:

    You are bringing up a sore point for all of us free-market conservatives. The bulk of us would prefer a system wherein those companies that couldn't compete died (my pref) -- or at least had no more than one (1) very time-limited opportunity to use this dodge. Right now, with companies seeking chapter 11 status to free up cash for takeovers (e.g. K-mart and Sears) it seems a little nauseating.

    You know I'm starting to like you less and less. Not that you care, but you should just rant yourself...

    And to tell you the truth, America is not as great a superpower as you may want us to believe.

    Do you think you are unique in your position? You're in the back of the(long) line of people who hate me.

    In any event, I think I like you. Those are some nice forums you've set up.
