Social Security

Just released, Social Security is go broke even faster than before. Why is this news, anyone with half a brain knows that a 2% reduction in the 'payroll tax' is really a 2% reduction in social security contributions and the result would be less incoming funds, hence the current headline. When are we going to wake up and fix the mess in Washington? November cannot get here fast enough.

Silver Spoon

President Obama stated that he wasn't born with a silver spoon. HE stated "someone gave us an education".

I am not a birther but I do think his history is important. I normally would say its none of my business but since he brought it up...... who paid for Obama's college education. Occidental, Columbia, Harvard? That's expensive and who paid for it?

Just asking since he brought it up.

Oil Prices

First of all I am a firm believer in capitalism, but, I personally think that speculators are an unfair drain on our futures markets. Obama wants to do something about it and I have a solution.

If you want to speculate on the price of oil (or any other commodity) then you MUST have a place to put it (ie,take delivery), if you don't then you cannot participate in that market.

Commodity futures were originally set up so oil companies and other manufactures, think General Mills, Alcoa etc., could lock in future raw material prices. It has gotten out of hand and could be a national security issue.

People wonder why oil/gas prices are so high, well speculators are part of the problem.

Don't get me started on short sellers.

Never Worked a Day

Some lib bimbo says Ann Romney has never worked a day in her life. What does she say about our current president? I bet raising 5 kids is way harder than community organizing. Or teaching law. Or some public interest group.

UPDATE:

"We didn't have the luxury for her not to work." this is a quote from Obama. What he really means is that we were making a ton of money and not doing shit so we decided to keep getting paid for doing nothing.

Obama vs. Supreme Court

"Ultimately, I'm confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress."
