Obamao forces higher gas prices. Needs more marxist redistribution of wealth funds

Our infrastructure is falling apart in this country. The roads, bridges, building, etc. We have to do something. Our highways are an embarrassment.

I don't disagree Diehard but it bothers me the waste that goes on with government. It would have been nice if Obama would have used that trillion dollar stimulus pork bill solely on infrastructure instead of throwing most of it away on every pet pork project the democrats could think of.

Just wait for a bridge to collapse and then people will give a shit.

Take that money out of the f-35
For real. $1.5 trillion could probably have cured Alzheimer's and fixed several roads and bridges.Take that money out of the f-35
I say Alzheimer's because apparently we're fairly close to a cure - we know the cure "in theory" just need the money to develop it.

If the price of fossil fuels don't up soon they are going to drive the nuclear industry out of my area, one plant already phasing out.

My objection is, regardless of the need for funds to rebuild our crumbling infrastructure is:
Spending won't be cut anywhere else, except for the military,
per the liberal leftist "dems".
When gas prices bounce back up to nearly 4 bucks and higher,
that 22 cents will be very bad. Many companies have big
energy bills. They will have to raise their prices, like trucking companies, etc.
Then you have the impetus for inflation surge.
and temporary taxes usually become permanent, because of more and more and more spending.
It must stop. We are going to be at least very, very close to 22 TRILLION dollars in our national debt.
Big, serious, looming trouble closer and closer all the time.

How about the creation of Department of Defense II in Homeland Security? Oh wait you can't say anything bad about the military or law enforcement or you're unpatriotic.

no, with liberals, it's ALWAYS law enforcement or the military.
Because they are ingrained with a free stuff for voters and political power pandering.
There is a lot of waste in gov, that's a great place to start.
But libs won't talk about the fed EPA, the fed NEA,,, etc etc, orgs that should just
remain at the state level.

Yeah one division for the environment, education, state affairs, energy, etc.
Two for the fear mongers.
And trust me I'm all for a curb on entitlements, unfortunately our economy is going to need more than the trickle down of wealth from the benevolence of the aristocracy

I have no doubt that more redistribution will make everyone smarter, better looking, happier and more productive.

correction:
"ONLY military spending"
I was IN THE MILITARY, woody. Of course there's waste in the military.
And most other parts of our gov.
But repetitive, overlapping gov depts is very costly, and usurps the power
of the states over state concerns.. Fed control over ponds, mud puddles and ditches
is stupid. States like Arizona, etc, surely WISH they had ponds, and mud puddles..

The problem is we have complex problems in this country and many want to solve them with knee-jerk simple responses.

States rights vs Federal rule was addressed in the Civil War and why people try to use the US Constitution vs their State Constitution to prove a point.
A very clear example of the wasteful aspect of a single level of government is Homeland Security but we won't talk about that. We will just rehash the Federal government infringing on State and local authorities.

Well even if there was the tiniest possibility that any of those problems could be solved how could that happen within a couple hours of pre-programmed sound bites?

Personally I don't trust anyone who thinks spending $500 million to secure a 4 year contract worth $50 million is a good system.

I honestly don't think it's for the money. Sure every politician wines up rich as a bitch after they get out of office but it's the glory, I guarantee it.

Oh it's not for the money but no one has stopped the insanity that is campaign finance. It looks bad. We claim that we are this great republic when we are closer to an oligarchy than many will admit.
