My point flew right over your head.
Which is entirely true, btw. The recession is not affecting all states equally.
You make no points, just pontificate book smart theory ignoring reality and street results.
Why is that in your view. Being from Maryland myself, only recently moving to SC, I know that the two states are worlds apart in terms of cost, and quality of living.

The recession was largely the result of the real estate bubble and subsequent bust. States that experienced less of a bubble are generally in better shape than states that saw huge bubbles.

When the value of the dollar crashes, it wont be the fault of only one corrupt politician. Such thinking is idiotic. There are many people to blame on BOTH sides. And the very fact that two polarized sides exist is no accident. Why can't people see that this is being done as a distraction???
The dollar is incapable of "crashing" because it is the world reserve currency. Therefore, every nation that is heavily invested in dollar denominated assets will continue to support the dollar by means of either monetary intervention (as the Chinese do) or via continued purchases in U.S. dollar denominated assets (as do all nations with a positive current account with the U.S.).
You can refer to this as the "financial dark matter" that keeps everything glued.
It won't be long now before the dollar is demoted from that status. It has already been considered. Look into it.
It's laughable. Americans think their unearned position at the top of the food chain will last indefinitely. But all things come to an end.
They did not have "access to essentially the same intelligence as the President," don't be ridiculous.The Senate and the House DO have access to essentially the same intelligence as the President. The leadership on the intelligence communities have regular, enduring intelligence briefings. The leadership of both parties are briefed and may ask questions. If you did not know that before you know it now.
"book smart theory" is a meaningless term you spew as a means of alleviating yourself from being properly informed about issues you obsessively discuss. Do not blame me for your lack of effort.
How did the members of the intelligence committee who had full access to the intelligence vote on the Iraq War Authorization?They did not have "access to essentially the same intelligence as the President," don't be ridiculous.
Here's the NIE the president had ...

...and here's the NIE that everyone in the Congress had ...

Those two documents not alike, not even "essentially."
The only members of Congress who had access to the 96 page NIE the president had access to were the members of the intelligence committees and they are not allowed to provide classified intell to other members without the proper clearance. That doesn't mean intelligence committee members don't sometimes slip up but that is not access.
I will never blame you for lack of effort to spew book smart ignorance but will blame you for ignoring substance and actual facts.
Now you are just looking desperate to get the last word.
What the **** does "book smart ignorance" even mean?

Book smart ignorance means you ignore human nature/behavior and individual personalities which drives activity more than any theory or economic principles. People cannot print money therefore will react differntly than the govt. that can print money. Economic activity is driven more by human nature and desires than you will admit.

There are many states in this country having no problem inducing investments with N. Dakota and TX being two
It means having a ****ing clue what you're talking about, which is anathema to some Conservatives.

Nope! Book smart ignorance is an oxymoron you created as a defense mechanism whenever someone brings up a point in which you do not understand. Instead of actually trying to learn something, you go off on a tangent that has absolutely nothing to do with this thread, e.g.
After explaining that some European nations are stuck in a demand trap as a result of non-sovereign central banking mechanisms of the Eurozone, you reply with:
Which has absolutely NOTHING to do with my point at all. Its as if i am describing a particular play during a football game, and you are responding with how many strikeouts so-and-so had last season. If you refuse to stay relevant, then we have nothing further to discuss.
Sounds like you should flee the country while you still can.If it turns out you are right and the one term Marxist becomes a two term Marxist the setting sun will be the sun setting on what remains of freedom and liberty.
I have a bad feeling about our future. Either way it may already be too late to escape the socialism we are already mired in.

The story that Obama supporters want to ignore and divert from. What is it about liberalism that causes people to buy the rhetoric and ignore the results?
