I was aware that the fed is privately owned. If it was ran by the government it would be pure corruption. The Government actually controls about 6% of the US economy........which isnt enough to make our economy do what it is doing now. Policys can change outcomes yes.......but only the citizens can make the difference.

has anyone watched BEE movie.......Our economy is JUSTLIKE THAT. we stopped making honey and everyone else is making it for us.......everything is crashing because we dont do ANYTHING for our selves. Our steel industry is GONE to china........are you freaking kidding me. That used to be the bread and butter of our country. we have outsourced sooo much to cut the dollar and make more proffit that we have cut too much. The more you cut out here the more that goes over there. I would GLADLY pay 100 bucks for something made in america over something made in china for 50, if it meant bringing jobs back to the USA.

Just open your eyes. And i dont mean that in a sarcastic way. When you hear something about a canidate...listen to BOTH sides of the story...its the only way you will get a decent answer. I watch fox and CNN. Read up....take a college course or two.....even though most instructors are liberal....its a great way to learn and understand whats goin on in the world. History repeats itself. Every great empire has failed throughout history......are we next?

yeah and the steel that china makes is so shitty that dealers where buying back 1999 to 2005 toyota tacohma pick ups for blue book plus 5,000 dollars because the frames were rotting out so bad that the test was - - - - bring it to a dealer, they lift it up and hit the frame with a peening hammer {slight point on it} if it goes through the frame you get a deal...................WTF !!!!! lol
so you could have bought a 99 tacoma for 15,000 bucks drove it for 9 years and got it bought back because of frame failure for about 12,500........gee i wonder why the automotive industry is in the shit hole too.................CHRIST

The past 8 years have been so wonderful, especially with conservatives controlling both houses for the first 6 years, I am all about helping to continue that nightmare.
Go McCain, Palin!!!! Keep the ignorance going!! I'm sure Diebold will help again this year, in key states.

haha.....yeah true that. I grew up in a town that is 90% republican. Im not saying im liberal......im not saying im republican.......but I like to see both canidates for what they are and where they come from. McCain is a war hero....and Obama had a rough life too. But they both need to remember where they came from and remember what it was like when they were little people like us.
