1) You wrote: "I don't expect him to stop everything I don't agree with. Then again, if I was him, I wouldn't veto everything either. No reason to put my life in danger if I actually want to help." Not understanding where life in danger comes into play at all... hence my confusion.
Also, please cite all of your statistics as I do. I give you the source so you can research yourself, I'm writing fact, not opinion and I cite major publications and accredited individuals who are experts in their field.
"The Community Reinvestment Act had nothing to do with this. Actually, under Bush it was weakened greatly and worked well under Clinton."
Please show me... articles, numbers, anything besides making a ridiculous claim.
The irresponsibility of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and those in Congress who pressured them to go out on this limb has been shown by their formal take over by the government and the huge sums of taxpayer's money that it has cost to maintain their solvency. Those two agencies had guaranteed over 50% of all home loans in America...
Another contributer? The Federal Reserve... they artificially held interest rates at an all time low further fueling this fire. The Fed has no business setting interest rates... let the company who do the lending control it. No one person or entity can say what a fair market interest rate is. It should be decided between the lender and the consumer. That power held by the fed is another way of government control over the economy and history will show... they have no clue what they're doing...
3&4) Government regulation on education is complete fail. Ask any teacher. Both my mother and sister are teachers. They both chose to teach in poverty stricken areas in Florida so that they can make the largest impact. Let's talk about standardized testing shall we? Ask any teacher how it's completely destroying their classrooms. Ask them how they compete against parents telling their kids to fail tests because if they do they get additional welfare money... and if the kids don't fail the test they're in for it when they get back. How about removing money from schools based on standardized testing? Did you know if one demographic of a school fails the entire school fails? That means less money for that school the next year.
I could go on and on about how privatizing education would be a much better system. Most people don't understand how it works though and I'd most likely just hear a bunch of nonsense about how not everyone would get education, which is completely outlandish and shows they don't know the first thing about how it would work. The current education system is awful. There's no incentives for teachers to do a better job. There's so many horrible tenured teachers out there that the schools can't get rid of. Privatizing creates competition, it becomes subject to the rules of capitalism. Better teachers get paid more (as they should be), students that excel regardless of race and gender would get better treatment, be able to skip through content faster and not be stuck in this "no child left behind" mayhem... like I said I could go on forever...
5) Wow ummm... they're the leading authority. We are talking about the Earth's atmosphere...
"Are you 12 clicks brother? You stated an Opinion. Is that a reality you can comprehend? For me, I don't feel free having no choice, in more than one way when it comes to my fuel."
What? So you want the government to take away all your choices and make them for you through regulation and taxation but you feel like you don't have any choice when it comes to your fuel? Did that statement just complain that you don't have enough fuel choices but you are for the cap and trade bill which causes the amount of choices you have to get smaller? Very contradictory...
