The Official "USA is fucked. The economy is tanking" Thread!

This shit isn't good with the credit rating. The markets were terrible yesterday already (hey I wonder if they got tipped off?) and with that credit rating downgrade, it's likely to take the whole economy with it.
Obama can't get his ass in line because he the democrats don't have balls and the republicans are fucking rich bitches.
Shit's going to get real crazy pretty soon, especially if the republicans hold out until everyone is jobless and pissed off.
All of north America and most of Europe is fucked now.
I'm fucking pissed off for one. Lets discuss this!
I blame: - Fox news (49% of American news viewership) and News Corp for preying on naive Christians - The Republican Party, for screwing the bottom 99% by giving tax cuts to the rich and cutting social programs to pay for it. And for continually holding the American economy hostage to accomplish these goals. - various others.

The US gov borrows 43 cents on every dollar they spend. A bump from a 3% rate to a 3.75 rate would make shit a lot more expensive. And it would cause a lot of home owners to default on their loans, lose their house, etc, and the down economy will mean less taxes are recieved by the gov, necessitating further cuts, and on and on and we're fucked.

I'll just say this, don't attempt to discuss what you know little to nothing about.

meh.
it's not like I'm upset about it.
It has been a long time coming and I welcome it because I wishingly believe that it will bring on social change.
Even these last couple weeks have opened a lot of people's eyes to the amount of corruption that exists within our government, in the form of special interests/class warefare.

Class warfare is nothing but a distraction like the rest of our political discourse.
I'm not a republican, but I'm sure as hell not a democrat/socialist/Marxist utopian.

See, that term pedo gets thrown around a lot.
Is a 16 year old guy having sex w/a 16 year old girl a pedophile?
If not, then how is a 30 year old considered a pedophile for doing the same thing?
I think y'all need to look up the definition for pedophile.

Typical liberal response. Create a strawman instead of addressing the issues with logic.

What straw man? Make an arguement. State your case.
Question: Do you watch fox news?

Only to laugh at the absurdity of its existence.
Do you think 51% of people have the right to take the property of the other 49% without their consent?

Ehh... that's an argument straight from Fox News.
Increase taxes on the poor. Great answer, idiot. Just because they don't pay federal income taxes doesn't mean they aren't taxed.

You can't get out of a recession by only increasing taxes on the poor.

You can't get out of a recession by taxing at all. The government has repeatedly tried to inflate their way out of it to no avail, inflation itself being a tax on savings.
They will keep using the same shitty economic policy that only delays our economic woes and helps funds 5 simultaneous military conflicts.
