Jopa Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 I'm not afraid for the U.S., but will they find the money somewhere "like always" . Quote
TulsaGeoff Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Just another day here... Not sure if anything happened today yet... Stock market went up... Quote
speedfact Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Meh, if you wanna motivate them to hurry up. Take away their pay and force them to be in the same room with each other until they come to an agreement. Also take away food and bathroom trips. I swear it will work. This would have been resolved last week if they did that. That of they would have a lotta people peeing in jars.... 1 Quote
Midnight Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Well I can tell you its nice to not work for a couple weeks. I can also tell you its a pain in my butt to not work for a couple weeks as well. Hopefully this is over fast. Quote
NoGooD Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 There are a lot of great countries in the world. The USA is one of them. Unfortunately our government is among the worst...... I love my country. I just hate the government. They're all scumbags. I gotta disagree with this whole heartedly Anti. Over the past few years chatting with soliders coming back from deployment and immigrants from other countries like USSR and various places in the middle east, our government may be full of greedy self centered bastards but it is far from the worst. The fact that you can post your distain for the government and not actually have to fear a group of armed police snatching you out of bed tomorrow morning and killing you and your family is proof. However if your snatch out of bed tomorrow morning by the police then I will retract this statement. In other news...did everyone make it home okay today with the interstate highway system being shut down? The side streets around here are a b*tch! Quote
Antichrist Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 The fact that you can post your distain for the government and not actually have to fear a group of armed police snatching you out of bed tomorrow morning and killing you and your family is proof. When the government tramples on the right to freedom of speech, right to bear arms, and the right not to be a victim of unauthorized searches/seizures, then yes, I do have to worry. Among a few others that they've urinated on as well. 1 Quote
MadCap Posted October 9, 2013 Posted October 9, 2013 They (the congress) should all be fired so that perhaps with a bit of luck some "competent" people can take over and do what needs be done, weather unpopular with big corporate interests or not. They are supposed to be 'stewards' of the nation and representatives of the people and at these tasks they fail miserably, if they were acknowledged employees in a large corporation they would be let go.... They are too involved with party line interests to serve the interest of the people of the nation as a whole. Doing things for the common good with a 'big picture' vision of the future is not on their agenda. just sayin.... Quote
