Re: Good Grief
said by pnh102  : If there were congressional term limits, it would force a turnover and allow for new blood to come in. And then the incumbents could whine/cry about how they haven't had enough time to accomplish anything and how the n00bs won't know enough to be worthy of election. Just like they do in California. Fortunately, we just shot down that particular proposition purchased by the politicians currently holding office but who are on their way out as a result of our term limits for these assholes.

I think half the country was CHEERING when they got their democratic congress, swearing things will get better, it is going to be a great change, but it turned out they had/have the lowest approval rating in history?!
People don't realize that too much of anything is a bad thing (a congress mostly democrats/mostly republicans).
Democrats over regulate but Republicans deregulate too much.
Here we are with the dollar's value dropping year by year (and the Euro going up and up) and we still won't go back on the gold standard. They would rather have the housing market make up the dollar's value and with bad credit and foreclosures it makes no sense. Not to mention when you send jobs overseas more and more people can't pay for their homes after they lose their jobs and it just further hurts the economy.
I swear this country is out to just shoot itself in it's fat, diabetic foot.

You can't make all the people happy all of the time. But it should be common sense to shoot for the majority. |
