aren't of God. The 'Repukes' don't have mankind's interest at heart. There are others that have taken selfishness to new levels and are only interested in power over their fellows. I just try to let people know they make the Pharisees look like a bunch of nice guys.

The Muslims well they were blood-thirsty from their beginning

Fire up the FTC. If an outfit/association is in the position to fix prices or stand in the way of getting work here or dictate policy to us bust them up. Like Teddy did

Do a major fireside chat, not press conference once a week on TV and the Internet to explain to the American people what's going on. Doesn't necessarily have to be the President, but someone in the position that can address everything of concern

Structure the tax code to make it prohibitive to speculate in commodities, derivatives, stocks (non american), gold. Target it in such a way to force investors to target their investments toward green tech, manufacturing base, small business for a start. Divert some of those R&D resources to make it doesn't excessively pool up in say drug R&D, but encourage our vaccines to be made here, that's part of the problem ala H1N1.

Do an FDR on banks e.g. holiday, confiscate gold, reinstate Glass Steal <sp>.

During my December meeting hold those threats over their head, If Congress doesn't want to play turn the various agencies loose on the offenders. If they move money or other resources put them out of business and build up the smaller business that do the same thing.

That's a start, sounds like a command economy. It'll have to be for a bit until the new regulation can take effect.

That's a start

In order for a computer to POST you have to have a working motherboard. with a CPU, memory, video, along with appropriate software OS, antivirus, firewall,etc. The Repukes have been drastically overclocking the CPU and running without the firewall and antivirus. Now we all know what happens when you don't run security software that'll show up first. The computer will run, but slowwwwwws down, people use your computer to run weird stuff, your personal info gets stolen.
The CPU being overclocked still runs for quite a while, but then over heats and the computer is no more.

IMHO, CPU=economy (job specific)
security software = health care


Replace the CPU first, get the computer going then get rid of the viruses, trojans, malware, etc. and install security software

We all know what happened there. If it's not turning around by then it will be 'throw the bums out' there are more of us than them

1. I agree with Ed Shultz. If we don't get job creation going we will see the Republicans getting back control of the Congress next year.

2. We, as Democrats, quibble amongst ourselves with other stuff. They're important yes, but if we can't bring the MANUFACTURING jobs along with firing up REAL INNOVATION, not constantly dressing up old ideas.

3. Vote yes if you think we're behind on the "power curve" in the Job Creation Forum

while I understand as retired military the strategic and tactical importance of maintaining air superiority. It seems there must be a more cost effective way to put new airplanes up or at least have working prototypes to put on line in a hurry.

I've said this before:
1. Since America has adopted a policy of maintaining a large complex military machine we have either lost or fought to a draw most of our major military actions.

2. We have lost a LOT of our standing in the world as a force for good.

3. We (myself included) as men have a tendency to want to use our new "toys" when we can. Unfortunately that gets us into more military actions. That's where the real money comes in. The logistics of putting "boots on the ground" and supporting the combined air,land, sea doctrine is really takes a lot of resources and it's telling on us.

4. The Soviets tried force projection and military investment on a more massive scale, compared to percentage of economic capability, than we have and self destructed. Even we can't last.

5. IMHO a lot of brain power, resources and industrial capability that is currently used in the military industrial complex would serve us better. A film from 1972, I'm telling my age, Future Shock http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-uHD2YeVhA is our destiny unless we solve it. It will be settling other worlds.


Just saying
