    As the economy tanks, Tea Party fortunes rise

    Rates need to be reduced significantly along with adding a consumption tax. That way EVERYONE has some responsibility. Expanding the base is the only way we are going to cut into that 16T dollar debt that is still climbing with no end in sight.

    Transmission trying to frequently shift in 10 speed

    Likely the speed sensor which is on the transmission. A bad one has problems communicating with the engine ECM. The good news, easy to fix and not expensive. This is assuming the fluid level is correct and and fairly clean. On some trucks this may throw a ECM code 31.

    If someone disagrees, that doesn't translate into a personal attack. Stealing Jamin's quote, "Stop trying so hard to be offended".

    O'Rielly statistics

    Some interesting charts. One can draw their own conclusions. The O'Rielly chart is included from the welfare dept. Yep, wonder if they made that up.:rolleyes: Blowhard or not, the information he is using is coming from Gary D Anderson the secretary of public welfare in PA. What is amazing as...

    O'Rielly statistics

    So what is the rational to provide $86.00 dollars in food stamps if according to you, they don't need it? Ah...maybe they are somewhat dependent? Would those likely be the same people that get alot of those other "gifts" as well?.

    It will become a reality at some point when those things that people depend on from the government get cut back or eliminated all together. Look at Europe. They didn't think anything would happen there. Surprise! It will be much slower here but the basic problem of government is too big is the same.

    O'Rielly statistics

    Thanks for the fix! Haven't seen anything so far that says they aren't factual or within reason. Maybe you have something that says otherwise? But I doubt it. The scary part is as the "baby boomers" fall out of that 109m number they will be adding to the other. Those are some serious numbers...

Yesterday the Senate (specifically Harry Reid) wasted half a day talking about changing...

    O'Rielly statistics

    A breakdown for this purpose isn't the main point. There will be some variables but the point is having 87m tied some way to government, verses 109m tied to the private sector. The point being that government is too BIG, rather than whether someone is deserving or entitled to a specific benefit.

    O'Rielly statistics

    Whether you like him or not doesn't matter. But I found these statistics he put out as alarming. 66.1 on government assistance of some sort. Counting welfare and all programs. 21.2 rely on government for employment. Total 87 million people tied to government. 109.3 million working in...

    Maybe they are starting to realize that union businesses are moving little by little to states that are right to work states.

    Some in Detroit want a bailout for voting for Obama

    Some in Detroit want a bailout for voting for Obama

    My guess is this is what Romney was talking about on "gifts".
