GNP - Expenditures of Multi-Billion Dollar War = Huge Deficit Especially when some of those UN countries that supported us during the last Gulf War STILL haven't paid their tab. Maybe that's why some didn't support us this time. Their tab was already too big. |

Short War = small short-term economic growth with a chance of economic recovery Long Protracted War = the small short term growth doesn't mean shit and the only ones to benefit are those under the umbrella of the military industrial complex That's basic economics and it applies fairly consistently to almost all development of post-war countries. Remember the '70s? What was your point anyway, Ronnie? War is good? |

Ronnie, look at it this way. When a company says that it will grow 20% in the next year, and then, in the third quarter, tells everyone that they guessed wrong and are actually only gonna grow 8%, that company's stock plummets and they have to lay thousands of workers off. Now, how is this any different than the U.S. economy and the recent announcements about how much growth there actually was? |

AND he hates what Jesus stands for. Naldo. I already refuted your silly little prayer in school argument and in the bargain got you to say you'd support Satnist Prayer in theclassroom, which no one believes you mean. I think I actually said that whie I would personally not like it at all, I would support someone right to do it as long as everyone elses religion got equal time. And I pointed out the difficulties there in. I know this puts me center of left on a single issue and that's almost impossible for you to cope with, but THAT'S how important I think the Freedom of Speech is. So, what were you saying again? |

wow! First he's un-American, now he's anti-American. Will he be European by next week? Ronnie, you may find normal laws open to interpretation, but economical laws are laws even you can't bend. I bet you love that word growth but like Max said, not all growths are automatically good. The economy of a country as big as the US will always grow. Hell, the economy of a country as small as mine will, too. What matters is the percentage of growth each year. |

Max, is against the first amendment thereby anti-American. Back to topic. No matter how you spin it, growth is good. Some might say that the economy is always growing.....These people clearly don't understand what a DEPRESSION is. |

I think Ronnie posted this as a joke. I mean, he can't really be this stupid, can he? |

Learn something about economics, Ronnie. The economy is ALWAYS growing. Whether things are good or bad depend on how fast it's growing, and how it compares to previous years. In other words, bad. |

Not all Growths are good. Ask your Doctor. And I'm sorry, Naldo, but unless you state something America stands for (which you've done exactly once) and state why I hate it (which you have failed to do spectacularly by showing that I personally don't care for prayer in school led by a paid official and ludicrously stating that you would be fine with satanism in the classroom as long as one child was a practicing Satanist) I don't have time to play footsie with you. Haven't you heard? There's a new girl in town. |

"That entire article was all about how SHITTY the economy is doing, and your using it as "proof" that everything is fine?" Nope. I said it's getting better. Maybe you don't know this but "growth" when concerning the economy...IS GOOD! "You mind explaining to me how this article indicates that the economy is in fact doing better as you say, because It looks like I've either missed something or the link is wrong." Let me say it again, GROWTH IS GOOD! |

Proof Max is wrong about the economy. http://breakingnews.nypost.com/dynam...P&SECTION=HOME Things ARE getting better, not worse. What will happen in this quarter? Who knows for sure..... All I can do is present the facts. |
