What is the Federal Reserve doing unveiling anything. They are a private, unaccountable, unaudited company. Even if they were a government entity they would simply do what they were told.

The Federal Reserve has no business unveiling any plans.

This will create inflation and lower the value of the dollar.

Indeed. One would think that they are all on a purposeful trek to devalue the dollar to the point of failure.

God help us...please.

It sure seems they are doing this on purpose.

What can be done to stop this maddness?

Well lets see, the report last night was $32 billion total was spent on campaigns this election cycle. That would have stimulated a bit of growth.

I disagree.

If trickle down economics had worked sooner, then not so many Democrats would have lost their seats in the House.

But the trickle was not trickling fast enough for most voters.

That's just obscene.

Have you heard about the takeover of the health care system and the upcoming Obamacare?

Please don't discount how much the voters were/are protesting that monstrosity of a bill that is already hurting people.

The American people on the whole, rejected the "shove it down our throats" mentality of this administration.

But, I hope the rest of the dems keep thinking like you do. It'll make 2012 that much easier for conservatives to get elected.

So, having said that...disregard the above.

Most Americans don't know the policies of this Administration!

What are most Americans frustrated with?

Most of our frustration is centered around money.

Healthcare Reform as presented is not such a bad thing-- until you start telling Americans that EVERYONE has to pay for health insurance.

Why is Immigration Reform so necessary?

Violence and crime = unnecesary money spent on issues that owuldn't be issues if the right policies were enforced, which is not a problem that started 2 or 4 years ago.

Big government, big government! Baloney!

Big corporatons that tke advantage of loop holes so they don't have to pay taxes or so that the salaries of their executives are untouched by Federal taxes! Who's accusing them?

Big corporations that shut down their ops in America and reopen their ops in India, Bangladesh and Mexico-- with little to no penalty from the government of the country they are getting rich off of-- who's accusing them?



Conservatives blaming the government is akin to some blacks who are always blaming whitey-- no one in either group makes the slightest attempt to look at the whole picture of the situation they are focussed on. Their minds are already made up.
