Obama worst Socialist ever!

[Sibirsky]

Corporatists are not capitalists.

All capitalists who believe in any sort of democratic government are.

No, they aren't.

[Norstal]

Obama is socialist? 'Murikan standard is straange...

No. Again, it's just the most radical right wingers. America is so highly advanced that even our dregs have access to the internet.

[Yandere Schoolgirls]

It doesn't matter, because he's still spending too much. He's spending more than Bush, and I doubt he's going to stop until there's hyper-inflation. The fact that spending has rose so little during his term is a non-issue. I don't even see the point of bringing it up

Unless of course you understand macroeconomics, which you don't seem to do.

Gregory did 1 shot of cocaine a year, Tom did 3 shots a year, George did 8 shots a year, but Obama, that sly devil, he only does 8.5 shots a year! He's increased his dosage the least!

Thanks for confirming you don't understand national debt.

I would pay money to see you operate a business using the very same principles that you espouse on this forum.

I would pay money to see you actually go to fucking school so that you can understand a FUNDAMENTAL concept of economics: that household and business debt are much different than national debt.

I'm going to go kill a kitten for every time someone treats running the nation is the same thing as running a business.

Really?

Since when can businesses collect taxes?

How are they different?

There are some fundamental differences.. such as not everyone in the country is your employee. Taxes don't exist in businesses, neither do subsidies, or social policies.

Taxes can be increased, indefinitely?

Governments can print some money, as long as inflation stays fairly low.

[Ebola Death]

I miss having Ronald Reagon.

So businesses can collect taxes?

[Wikkiwallana]

What are you even trying to say? Yes, Obama was being a good leader by stopping the practice of hiding the countries finances. Yes, i'm glad you agree that Bush was being a bad leader for doing this

What I am saying is; just because you don't hide behind a curtain of raising the debt still makes it raising the debt.

Did anyone mention Obama tripled everything from Bush.

It's like a contest to see who can raise the debt of a nation the fastest.

Sorry, your bluff just got called.

That has nothing to do with it. Debt is debt, if a business starting up takes out a loan, but several years discovers it running deficits and in light of this decides to take out of a larger loan while continuing to build the failed business even larger, then it's going to fail regardless. It's simply a matter of when.

Same thing with Government, the US Government at this point represents a failed business venture, and the more loans it receives the longer it postpones it's inevitable day of reckoning; the united states will go bankrupt just like the failed corporation. It's just a matter of when.

It quite literally is the same.

And there goes another kitten......at least the local wildlife's a bit safer.

Slightly more seriously, here are a few people point out how governments are not like businesses, and/or why they shouldn't be treated like such:

From that well-known haven of Socialism, Forbes.com;
Also here;
Paul Krugman: America Isn't A Corporation.

Go and read those, and then claim with a straight face - if you can - that government "quite literally is the same" as business.

Again, can businesses tax?

No it won't. You still have not supported this.

The Government's is hired collectively by the people, and it's job is to provide a service that's worth the money. Balancing its spending, and providing a worthwhile service is its job. In a sense the Government is very much like a business, and should be ran as if it were one.

Can businesses use deficits to stimulate growth of their company? Can it inject money into its own business? Can it change interest rates? Tell me when they can do all of this and more, then I'll take you seriously.

I'm sure they can, but it would be retarded. It would be just as retarded as everything the Government is doing now.
