If that is his only indicator he has bent the entire economy towards that. This was the reason they destroyed the Labor unions. And imported cheap labor. Prices are mostly bound up in the cost of fuel. The fuel prices will only end up in your lap. Wages will not increase. Alt+F4 Allows GodLikeProductions User to Check Current score in Thread Dialog.

You will be/already are a wage slave. Alt+F4 Allows GodLikeProductions User to Check Current score in Thread Dialog.

| Kanigo2 User ID: 442313 United States09/23/2008 08:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | wow. Quoting: zandotious 136963Well ok what if they dont do it? Foreign governments will ask for tangible assets instead of US dollars(like gold)--- The US will not be able to purchase anything on the world market--including fuel--Foreign government will want Tangible assets in return for any goods they sell us. Or they will want higher and higher interest payments. The dollar will crash. We will literally go back to a barter system--- all local. ------------------------------------------------------------ It doesn't matter though because we will end up there anyway. Paying this 700 billion only prolongs the system that is..it will become worth nothing sooner or later because of the governments inability to stop spending and lowering the value of the US dollar.

| Bingo Bob User ID: 509390 United States09/23/2008 08:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hello to whoever is reading this. Quoting: Zandotious 136963Im a regular guy. I dont write or spell very well, I dont have a college degree. I dont REALLY follow the news and I know more about motorcycles than the stock market. I dont know the diff between a democrat and a republican, and iv never voted. I do however pay $4+ for a gallon of gas, I am getting raped by my credit cards, My income is down by about 10k from last year. I do have a baby on the way and WE dont have health insurance. We do both work 40-50 hrs a week and we are broke. I also have a coupla few friends JUST like me and they all have a coupla few friends just like them who have friends just like them ( you get the picture). Ne-ways, Why should we all care about some $7 bagillion buyout or whatever? I pay my bills and mortgage on time.My credit score is a 712, I have no MaSsIvE shortage of work, ( im down from last year but not terribly). Im not saying it ISNT a big deal, I just dont understand it. If they do this will i lose my job or my house? If so how? I honestly dont know If i should be for or against it. Whatever. If someone can tell me how this will effect ME and my family,I would GREATLY appericate it! Yeah, you don't need to worry about this - you are a loser, and will always be a loser. You have no earning potential unless you have a VERY specialized skill and you probably won't ever make much more money than you are currently making. You knocked up your girlfriend due to your lack of education and deep down knowing that you will never amount to anything....so why not make it worse and pop out a kid NEITHER of you can afford. You are a wage slave, you will always be a wage slave, and people like you don't need to worry about what is going on in the financial markets. Your dollars will drop in value...which means you can't buy as much "stuff". Oh and do the country a favor....don't vote. |

Prices are mostly bound up in the cost of fuel. The fuel prices will only end up in your lap. Wages will not increase. And, in fact, have decreased in real dollars every year since the 1970's.

Now, I can't get a job with benefits, much less for $17.00 an hour. WTF has happened to this country? |
