AND GREED......and it is NOT going away. The state of the world/us economy/YOUR life will NOT be better under Romeny....if you
believe that fact YOU need to do more research and TRULY understand the economic global and local "off the cliff" crisis. The R's do
NOT have the answers anymore than the D's have the answers, it is going to take a catastrophic occurrence for this crisis to turn
around and even then it will be MANY MORE years of the same shit.....JMO, BUT I do alot of research to make this post and it would

Conservatives appear to believe that Romney/Ryan are going to ride into office on a white horse and turn the US economy around like Romney did the Olympics. Well Romney lobbied the US gov't for millions of dollars to help him in the Olympics....who is he going to lobby to fund the US economy? China? Or maybe they think Romney can do for the US what he did with Bain Capitol.....well Bain Capitol was built with money from investors......who is he going to get to invest trillions of dollars into the US economy? Romney does well with other people's money, so it looks to me that without a huge increase in taxes from Americans, he doesn't have the expertise to fix our economy. So far all I see from Romney are plans to make the wealthy richer....like he did with Bain Capitol investors, no matter who gets hurt in the process.......

No, no white horse. But for sure not having Obama in will remove the lead weight from the economy. It will be a process. Politicians over the past many years (Both parties) have caused lots of issues without doing anything about them. Time to remove those barriers.
There is a lot of pent up $$ being held by the evil rich. Given a good business environment to invest, I expect a lot of this to be freed up with the right people in office, IF they remove the disensentives, or plain intervention in business. One thing Romney could, and I expect would do, is free up energy exploration on federal lands and Alaska. Lot of new jobs...
Romney likely will allow the rich to make $$ on investments. That is what he does. In the meantime, we all will also benefit thru jobs, lower energy costs, and more revenue to the treasury without raising rates or squashing the economy.
Too bad future generations aren't here to see all the great things we are spending their $$ on!!

Once again, your ignorance of economics shines bright. Currently our economy is in a malaise because both business and consumers have no faith in Obama. Inventory is being turned over only a couple times a year, people aren't willing to start businesses, and aren't willing to spend money. If Mitt wins and inspires business to invest again, and consumers to increase spending, we will see an increase in tax receipts. If corporate sales double, corporate tax receipts increase.
Example? Colorado state goverment has more tax receipts this year not because they increased sales tax, but because sales increased.
Face it, no one is economically optomistic about another four years of Obama.
Military contractors are having to lay off, military units are reducing staff.
Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.
And the energy industry is booming in spite of Obama and the EPA, and could do even better if they fast tracked permits and we had a national energy policy to promote natural gas instead of failed solar companies. And pipelines and refineries! Good paying jobs.
If you want to be, press one. If you want not to be, press 2
Republicans are red, democrats are blue, neither of them, gives a flip about you.

Wow, I thought I was a pessimist. There are certain trends in America that look bad, an aging population, public debt rising too fast, but I think the US can still dig out of things.
Parties can't fix things? There is a lot of greed and fraud in the system, but we have climbed out of the ditch before under both parties. I just think Romney understands better than Obama how to right the ship.

The energy companies are sitting on thousands if not millions of acres of permitted leases which they are not acting on. It is a conservative lie that "fast tracking" permits would lead to more jobs. The number of rigs actively drilling has QUADRUPLED under the Obama administration and for the first time, the US has become a net fuel exporter.
Further, the energy companies while setting record profits are receiving billions in tax breaks over the next few years, at time when the GOP wants to increase the tax burden on the average American.

Dog,
Your talking points are easily refuted time and time again.
Tax breaks? Actually they are capital investment credits. Non oil companies get them too.
Record profits? So according to you the oil companies are getting record profits under Obama. I thought the record profits came under "W". And how much are these record profits as a percentage of sales? Big Pharma and many other companies have a much higher profit rate than oil which is under 10%.
Increase taxes on Americans? Actually taxes would be decreased to 10% on most Americans under the Ryan plan.
Wheras Obamacare does increase regressive taxes on Americans including tanning beds and medical equipment sales.

Ah, but that is where you are only telling a half truth. Rigs have quadrupled IN SPITE OF the Obama administration because of drilling on private land where the federal govt has no say.
