If Mitt Romney wins, the middle class loses

propaganda

We all do, his vision of our future (workforce), must be like that in "The Running Man or Soylent Green"

We are screwed!

If Obama wins the entire nation loses and big

and if he should lose we are still in trouble with obama

The middle class is a farce. They are nothing without access to credit. Without others providing them with a means to work, a means to spend more than they make, and a means to retire without providing for themselves, they DO NOT MATTER.

it's got nothing to do with politics when someone buys something they can't afford, or don't listen to the signs telling them that life will be higher priced when they reach retirement and they should save money. People are stupid maybe they like government help, they are stubborn, they think they have to live the life of the rich and famous, I make minimum wage while going to school, you don't see me asking for handouts from the government.

Do you live at home? and who is paying for your education?

It has everything to do with politics, primarily starting this debt bomb after WWII ended.

People are stupid they think just cause the price of gas has droped 30 cents it's going to fall further, that's what oil companies want you to think, I know when I see gas prices drop they'll go back up again, and higher than it was before when it started to drop, 5, 6 bucks and higher is coming.

Amen

Personally, I think we are near an all time peak in oil prices. We are increasing the use of alternatives, natural gas (LNG) and electricity. We are increasing the use of mass transit. It is estimate that within 5 years 1/5 of the US truck fleet will run on LNG. That estimate may be low. Chrysler is planning on coming out with an LNG pickup in the next year. This is proven technology. Fleet vehicles have been using it for years. Hybrid and electric car sales are going well, too. Demand for oil is shrinking and price can not go up in the face of shrinking demand.

Point 2. North Dakota. The US is producing more oil and gas then ever before in safer locations. It is likely that new technology will allow more domestic and Canadian production. That means less and less need to involve ourselves with the expensive middle east. To our benefit neither China nor Europe has this advantage. In fact we are already exporting natural gas.

If I were a Saudi, I'd start thinking about good recipes for sand.

You are correct people are stupid, they continue to expect someone other than themselves to be their best advocate.

If the middle class doesn't matter who going to buy the cars and others items that drive the economy?

No one because much of the population can not afford new cars.

These folks don't realize who (workforce), A creates and produces the value and product, and B create the economy by consumption/demand and the wealth.

They seem to economically illiterate.

MY question exactly... where dot he wealthy think their money COMES from? What's the old saying? "Don't bite the hand that feeds ya?"

So true

thankies!

If they are buying them with credit, they are doing nothing to stimulate the economy. They are just partcipating in the movement of money.

Actually the people who produce these credit cards are the banks. People still have to pay for the credit cards but the new mantra of America is buy now pay later.

And banks borrow their money from the fed and lend it back to them receiving interest payments on the money they borrowed. It is nothing more than a shell game, economic growth is only derived from assets being moved among private holdings. Credit is just a way to float activity, it creates no wealth. Actually the buy now pay later mantra was a creation of post WWII era. That was the only way to maintain full employment after all the soldiers returned from Europe. That is the tipping point for where we find ourselves today.

Your perception of things is troubling, i'm trying to envision who u are and what u do. Are you a business partner of Romney?

Troubling to those without the ability to honestly assess the world in which we live. I have yet to do any deals with Bain, but I am in a similar economic situation as Mitt. What I do, I retired from practicing medicine and now utilize my knowledge to own multiple businesses.

A Romney is Win for the nation and all free people of the World and an end to this Stalin Communism of Obama and his clan....

If Obama wins, everybody loses.

If Mitt thinks he can turn around the country in 1 year he has no clue. Even if Obama wins we still won't be out out of this mess. There are way too many people involved where we know no one man can cause this.

I my god I love you man, well spoken, people want to vote for obama cause they claim he needs the same amount of time that it took to get us in this mess to get us out, when in fact if you mess it up it takes longer, and people think we should vote for rommey cause he can do what people thought obama could do in 08 when they voted for him.

Yeowza! Yes many can't understand the YEARS it took for this to happen (think Clinton) and the rest is history. So far Dubya couldn't do it and Obama has not been able to either.

So to blame Obama is the biggest joke on here when I see it. One word, CONGRESS is the biggest stop gap I have seen in my 47 yrs of existence and quite frankly have yet to see the end of it.

Have you ever seen the series "Jericho"? Watch from the beginning if you can and it will blow your mind at what the possibilities our people in power could do and become. Life is what we make of it.

There is no good or bad in life, but thinking it makes it so.

Grassroots ad and I like it. We should see more of these.

The middle class has declined in the last three years. We can expect more of the same. Spread the wealth is rapidly becoming, spread the misery. If you are not paying taxes, your are poor parasite, not middle class. Obama has created more poor than any other president in history.

Another moron, wow.

Just one shining example of Romney's business acumen. Romney was in the business of creating wealth for his investors. He did it at the expense of the benefits & pensions of the middle-class workers at a good many of the companies that Bain took over.

TRUE!

Yeah the rich people are taking all the cash...

Question: If we taxed the rich, and the government spent at the same rate they are, how long will they last?

Well the governments spends about $3.6 trillion dollars a year, making $10 billion a day

If we taxed all of the billionaires, 100%, every single penny they have, $1.4 Trillion, we will have enough to spend for 140 days.

If we cut the entire military and privatized National Defense, we would have enough money to spend for 70 days

If we took all the profits from every fortune 500 company, we would have enough money to spend for 30 days.

So with getting rid of the rich and all of their profits, we still wouldn't be able to last a year without going into debt.

And don't say debt is good, it's bad because the most likely scenario of getting out nowadays, is either money from other nations, or printing money. Both do harm to your currency.

And whenever someone talks about cutting welfare spending the left calls them selfish and greedy.

Okay if you don't like Romney, don't vote for him, and if Obama gets re-elected only expect more debt, because never have I once heard Obama talk about balancing a budget since he's been elected. And if you either want to our debt to be owned by other nations or the federal reserve go ahead.

stop making sense . . .don't forget once you take their wealth there is no busness left
