Do you look at facts?
If we split the country in half, and had each side contribute the same % to national defence, and then let each half run itself we would have the republican side grow and flurish, and he dem side would shrink and go bankrupt kust like Chicao, Cleveland and the other democratic run places.
So this had nothing to jobs moving to republican areas, where people were poorer and workers and consumers have fewer rights? Besides by the time this recession/depression is over, the cities of the south and west will be just as bankrupt, but with their people suffering more, because of their focus on “The Investor Economy” means they have crappy social services. The funiture mills, the textile plants in the south are gone too, as people there are becoming to expensive, they’ll be outsourced too.
You’re so concerned about the debt and taxes that you think Obama will run up that you’re ignoring the fact that your party ran up 90% of all debt in the history of the country in the last 28 years and that McCain is ready to create a $1 Trillion deficit for his first year in office. I can see why republicans think bankrupting the government to put money in their supporters pockets is attractive, but why would a family making $100,000 or less buy into this?
