I understand what you are saying...but we get all over politicians who are not consistent with their words....justifiably so. All too often they flip flop depending upon who they are talking to. I honestly don't know if either of them have done this during the primaries. I am so shocked by the two we have to choose from that I have lost all faith and interest.

Hence, we are in a huge inflation/interest rate/currency bubble.
I understand the correlation of Inflation and interest rates...I also understand the currency problem we have with the QE. I just was unclear on if that exactly was what you were referring to. I was not thinking along the lines that interest rates should be much higher. By the way, I agree with your point there.

Actually, I don't. However, I find it funny that anyone would paint him as caring or genuine. I find that type of behavior as self serving, selfish, crude and despicable.

We are bankrupt and on a path of unsustainability and certain collapse if we don't get some radical economic change.
Oh, I agree with you here, too. I just don't think trump has ever reigned in his spending, and find it difficult to believe he will reign in spending if elected. Also, don't misinterpret what I am saying as an endorsement of Hillary Clinton. While I find Trump distasteful, I find Hillary Clinton stomach churning.
If I have sit and listen to her scream at us every time she speaks I will need to stay close to the bathroom, because I will be throwing up....a LOT.

Verge of collapse is a bit of hyperbole. However, his point still stands that we cannot continue to spend like drunken sailors and our economy survive.
It's funny that if private citizens did what our government is doing with money, we would be forced into bankruptcy, or arrested for fraud.

OT - DNC Imploding by Peter Buck I'm not voting for Trump after I heard he referred to Mexicans as Taco bowls... What a racist!!!
Every time I start to warm up to Trump, he turns around and spouts off about hateful things like Peace...and Prosperity....and putting our country first ahead of somebody else's country. I mean, Hello? Does he even realize how Hitler ish that sounds? OMG

Jefferson... Do you think Trump is going to win the GE?
Posted on 7/29/16 at 9:44 pm to Kneehigh
Yes. If he isn't assassinated first.
What about you?

I do. I honestly believe Cliton has way too much baggage and cannot be trusted. She's hated not by only her own party but by 63% of the country and it's climbing. Every time she speaks, she loses credibility (if that's even possible anymore) and she continues to choke away. Trump is different and will destroy her in other ways not named politics. Just as he did to all of the original constituent, lobbyist, supporting scumbags. Oh happy days!

This.
I have a friend who has been rabidly anti-Trump for months because he says shitty things about minorities, women and other special interest groups. She was feeling the Bern, but just two days ago said that she would vote for Trump now because Hillary is an even worse human being than the Don and at least Trump might fix the economy if elected and we all tolerate a lot more shitty behavior with more money in our pockets.

Most advice I've ever gotten from stockbrokers has been pretty bad.
I do better with investments that I study and discover myself.
So I am not impressed.

The purpose of a government is not the same as that of a private business.
There is no logical reason to compare the two.
The deficit as a percentage of GDP was worse following WWII. It has been bigger in the past and the U.S. survived.

A vote for Hillary is a turd sandwich.

I agree. However, most rabid Trump supporters say he would make a great President based upon his experience in business.
This from Beefdawg, just yesterday.
We need this country to be run like a business right now.
Crazy, huh?

So, our basic foal is to survive? We cannot spend like we are currently. I am getting the feeling that you believe we should spend until we find out what the limits are?

You do realize that nobody in this thread (That I know of) has shown any support for Hillary Clinton, right? All we are doing is voicing huge concerns on Trump leadership.

I'm not giving advice you retard. I'm stating facts.
We had $6 trillion dollars in global circulation in 2008. We now have $12 trillion in global circulation. And inflation is only up 12% total over the last 7 years.
That's called an inflation bubble. Our currency volume doubled but we didn't de-value the dollar respectively. Not even close.
The stock market is propped up on $6 trillion borrowed from the Fed. This is called "Leveraged Easing" or Quantitative Easing.
It's like borrowing from your credit card to invest for retirement. Except your credit card is charging 8% interest and your investments are only making 4% return.
We're also still deficit spending while already $20 trillion in debt. We've had our credit downgraded once already. It will happen again soon if we keep increasing our debt.
Just like your credit score, the more debt you accumulate, the higher risk you become, the lower your credit score goes.
We're also over $120 trillion under-funded in our liability accounts like social security, medicare, welfare programs, and we just added Obamacare which is already under-funded.
That's not "advice". Those are facts. You're just an ignorant buffoon with his head in the sand because you drink leftwing koolaid like a good sheeple.

Maybe the government needs to be run like a business in some aspects such as
1) Employee pay is tied to performance
2) You don't spend billions on art when your patrons are not being serviced (ala the VA)
3) You review the budget each year and eliminate those items you don't need any longer.
I've never understood why we send trillions to Washington for them to siphon off an administrative fee and then send it back to via state and local grants. All that does is create a dependency on the feds.
