Unfortunately you can put me down for a terrorist attack happening real soon. I'll go as far as saying it will happen in NY again. This time, with a car bomb or perhaps someone with a pipe vest strapped to themselves in Penn station during the rush. Those fuckers are determined to hit us again.

Its really fucking scarey..I mean..My father worked in the WTC and we moved like 3 years before those fuckers pulled 9/11..Alot of people he knew died :(

You really don't appreciate all out security until you see it. I was in NYC once during a "High Terror" alert and when i stepped out of Penn station, i saw armed helicopters flying in formation around the Empire State Building. They were stationary around the building protecting it. There were cops everywhere and the National Guard was positioned everywhere with rifles. It was a real eye-opener. this shit wasn't a joke, i'll tell you that.
Also, was in Yankee stadium for a game and had police patrolling in the stands with MP5's and german sheppard dogs. I don't mind all the extra security but i bet the criminals running around are saying to themselves, "This sucks, can't even jack someone for a gold chain for fucks sake"

Yeah. Because Clinton made hundred billion dollar payments, which was cool. As long as you're willing to overlook the fact that he was taking trade surplus from NAFTA and giving it to other countries instead of putting it into our own economy. And the fact that he dumped the huge tax gains from the Tech Boom and .com Boom into debt payment to other countries, rather than our own economy. Oh, and we also can't forget that he nearly halved the American military to make those debt payments. Yeah, that surplus sure did rock.. at destablizing the American economy. No better way to screw yourself than to give too much money to other people that you get no return on.

Oh, and for the record, because the media never seems to mention this, especially not the blessed-by-God-Himself Liberals (which they deny in order to maintain Separation of Church and State):

The United States of America isn't even in the Top 20 nations for Debt-to-GDP Ratio, the most realistic portrayal of a nation's financial position in relation to debt. Also, if we collected all the debt owed us by other nations, we could pay off our own debt three times.

Much like chicken, Collegegood4u.

Ok, time for Uncle KTOG to chime in with his economic policies and crap. Some might say "We might be in debt, but i don't really notice a change"

The national debt can be called a hidden killer. Lets say you have a friend (lets name him America) that bought a car (war in iraq). This car just sent him over his credit limit and is now in bad debt (national debt). There is no way for him get money for this unless he bums it from his friends (taxes or inflation). He has a job that brings in money (business and public funding) but there is obviously no way of him increasing these. He either has the choice of getting a loan (borrow money increasing national interest rates), bum it from his friends and pay it back later interest free (increase taxes, no interest and pay back through tax refunds), or do nothing and let the credit build up and eventually through him into bankruptcy (national ruin due to increased interest rates, increase money supply, and loss of foreign trade).

So why is this not a problem?

the shades are on cool:

Coleman 08-03-2004 10:39 PM

I don't think it's necessarily a "problem" that is totally wrong. Bush isn't spending money on nice bowling alleys with gold shitters in the bathroom. War is pricely...so naturally the demand for money will be higher. Remember, this day in age we have all those smart bombs and stuff to protect out men and give them the edge when they're fighting the enemy. Having the upper-hand during this war is costly $$$. But I'd rather pay money then send our troops to fight with spears and rocks.
