God save America. There is no change. Nothing meaningful has been produced. QE1, QE2, QE3? No thanks.

How can any country have a sound and functioning national economy when a large portion of it's politicians and heads of industry are at odds with or outright detest the very concept of the nation state to begin with? Progressive Western capitalism at this point seems to view the concept of nation states as an obstacle to the easy exploitation of ripe labor markets. Many corporations throughout Europe and the United States have these highly mobile roaming manufacturing operations that can quickly pack up shop and leave should a lower wage market open up. Look at what is happening to Ireland and the UK, you've got huge numbers of corporations now relocating their manufacturing centers to Central and Eastern Europe, where in another 10 years they'll probably pull out and move on again, leaving another economic collapse in their wake.

Look at the US labor market right now. Tens of millions of jobs have been relocated to cheap foreign labor markets. If that isn't bad enough, millions of US domestic jobs have been filled with overseas labor recruited into the US, and for no other reason than to undercut and suppress the national wage standard (the US tech industry being a prime example of that brutal corporate tactic).

You can't have functioning national economies in this new Globalist system. Politicians like to lecture and moan that their citizens don't have the proper skills to compete in a global market, but that's horse shit. It's not about what skills, capabilities, knowledge, or levels of efficiency that a particular labor market possesses, it's strictly a matter of how low can that particular labor market's wage standards fall. Once wage levels hit bottom the jobs will come back and the process will repeat itself.

As far as the financial markets are concerned, according to thousands of so called "experts" they were extremely corrupt 50 years ago, it's nothing new. It's hilarious that the mainstream media is solely focused on the mouse of financial corruption, while the invisible elephant of nomadic globalist labor exploitation is rarely even discussed. How can national wealth be built without jobs?

[Gee]

Obama was chosen only because he is black and from muslim background

Americans were driven by what they see from increased religious conflicts especially with muslims to discrimination and hatred between countries

Americans thought they are teaching the world how to be religious tolerant and fight discrimination

Obama was lucky to find all these circumstances but he is not the guy who can lead the top country especially in these difficult times

Now what,
did any country change her view about america?
are muslims now in love with america?
did the middle east become more friendly and tolerant ?

nothing changed, he failed in what americans choose him for !

America needs great man in these difficult economic times, not someone preaching tolerance and forgiveness to terrorists!

May God bless america and save the whole world in these difficult economic times

The election of Obama had more to do with America's dissatisfaction with the Republican party than anything else. That dissatisfaction still continues because the Republicans have done very little to change the opinions of the majority. In fact the way they are handling the debt crisis is causing many more Republican supporters to jump ship.

The great majority, both Republicans and Democrats want the rich individuals and corporations to pay their fair share of taxes but the Republican mainstream still refuses to let it happen. Its beyond me how they could ever expect to win support on such an unfair position. Obama can win the next election on this situation alone unless the Republicans can somehow convince the voters they are for the middle class instead of for the rich and greedy. I don't see how this is possible without a Republican change of policy.

Another big problem the Republicans have is the majority of them are bald-faced liars. This is most obvious with their refusual to admit mankind is responsible for global warming that's altering our world's climate. They know its true....yet most of the Republican POTUS contenders refuse to admit it. I don't believe anyone can be elected to that position who refuses to admit the truth and promises to fight the problem.

Perhaps it had a big push after the nomination of Palin for VP.

"If the US Government was a family, they would be making $58,000 a year, they spend $75,000 a year, & are $327,000 in credit card debt. They are currently proposing BIG spending cuts to reduce their spending to $72,000 a year. These are the actual proportions of the federal budget & debt, reduced to a level that we can understand." - Dave Ramsey

The nomination of Palin certainly increased my family's support of Obama.

Excellent analogy and something I have been harping on.

Cutting spending alone does NOTHING to solve a shortfall in income (revenue) to pay down the debt. The fact remains is there is a debt. The fact remains there is NOT enough revenue coming in.

Why there is still the conceptual need to extend the Bush era tax cuts is beyond me and most rationale, impartial, knowledgeable economist.

The reason for implementing those cuts to begin with was to spur the economy and get people to spend.

"If you're a millionaire, under the Bush tax cut you get a $46,000 tax cut, more than enough to pay for this Lexus," Sen. Tom Daschle said on Feb. 8, 2001. "But if you're a typical working person, you get $227. And that's enough to buy for this muffler." source

The end result was no economic growth and lack of spending.

I liked obama being black and from muslim background but I did not like that to be the only reason to choose the leader of top country!

I liked a lot colin powel and condeleeza rice in george W bush era

Why do people have to choose between one or the other? There are usually a lot of other candidates who are ignored my the media. The media tries to keep the two major powers in power because they know it would be a living hell for them if the other parties got power. God forbid if the US populace tells the two sides that have been causing most of our problems where to go and start voting alternates in. No, we need to be mindless zombies who hang onto every already chewed up morsel the media spoon feeds us and go to the polls like lemmings.

People blamed the republicans, people blamed the democrats - so WHY DO THEY KEEP VOTING THEM BACK IN??? If I did a crappy job my boss would fire me and not rehire me. Why are politicans so different?

Money. They are fed millions by special interest groups to mount massive campaigns and media blitzes against their opponents.

True, too bad the majority of the voting public doesn't get off their rear end and do some research on all candidates before voting.

Here's a relevant classic:

Just wait until Rick Perry gets in. Talk about "skeletons in the closet".

Not sure why he is playing this game of not declaring. After his prayer rally (what a joke) he went to New Hampshire and South Carolina. No reason to be in those early primary states except for early stumping.
