Burke brushes off concerns about customers cutting cable from their budgets to save money.
Job cuts + price increases (in general) are happening globally.

The only reason that I haven't cut cable completely is that I have it bundled right now, where digital cable + analog cable works out to ~20/month ontop of VoIP + Internet. (30/30/30 package actually)

Grants Pass, OR | I do not blame them. I blame the dumb Americans for voting him in twice. Guess they did not get enough the first round and wanted more. They delivered!

| You 2 morons do realize that a lot of this is also the result of the individual in office before Bush right?
Do a little history and economic search and you will see that Presidential policy runs for a long time after one's administration. |

Blame the corrupt politicians and corporations for defrauding our elections. As far as I'm concerned this is not what America voted for in 2004, and there needs to be something done about it(lynch mob?). But in the end, America did nothing, so yes its our fault, and the majority is dumb unfortunately.
EDIT:
Skippy25, this is the last year bush has been in office, yea i guess you can say everything he has done is now taking effect. |

Do a little history and economic search and you will see that Presidential policy runs for a long time after one's administration. Actually, NO deregulation happened under Bush. Carter's Community Reinvestment Act (along with ACORN pressuring banks) and Bill Clinton leading the way is the REAL REASON FOR THE HOUSING CRISIS. Both Carter and Clinton pushed to let anyone buy the "American dream" of home ownership. In fact, Bush cleaned up Clinton's messes with the tax cuts because of absolute incompetence on the SEC during Clinton. Bush proposed reigning in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac BEFORE McCain in 2003. He was refused by Barney Frank and friends. McCain proposed it again in 2004 and was refused.
Did Clinton ever have a "surplus"? NO! If you take out the Social Security income (taxes), he had a deficit like anyone else.

If you want to start that game how about only 6 years?? The last two have been under a Democratic House and Senate. So blame them too!! |

The Dems have been in control of both houses for 2 years, and we have the greatest economic crisis in decades because they all denied there was a problem with Fannie and Freddie. Please, get an idea before you spout talking points. Look at all the vids that show Barney Frank and friends pushing for MORE subprime. How much did Fannie donate to Obama the last few years, and how much did their former CEO and advisor to Obama, Franklin Raines make? 90 mil?
This all got started in 1977, and look up the CRA, and in what years that was expanded. And also look up who STRONGLY stated it was a systemic problem. That's right, Bush in 2003.
It is best to leave politics out of this, however, when stuff like that is said, expect a challenge. |

Re: Jobs cuts R us BullCr*p!
The Democrats DO NOT HAVE A VETO PROOF MAJORITY! ANYTHING this corrupt BUSHCO administration is opposed to would NEVER make it into law because BUSH would veto it.
You are obviously CLUELESS about how the law making procedure works.
As to the cause of this 2nd Great(er) Republikkkan depression, you can thank the shiftless whiner himself - Phil Graham. His machinations in '99 and 2000 is (and will) ultimately what has lead to our destruction - that and 25+ years of "Supply Side"Raygun Ronnie PISS ON THE POOR economics. You clueless CONS just don't get it - SUPPLY SIDE DOES NOT WORK.
Oh and believe me I BLAME Bill CLINTON just as much for not fighting all the Republikkkan policies that have led to this disaster - but make NO MISTAKE - It is RepubliKKKAN policies and Republikkkan GREED that have destroyed us. |
