Obama won the election.

[DysLabs]

Indeed they probably can.
But I cant see whatthat will do, other than give the government more money.

[noob007]

To use that money to stimulate the economy, create jobs, and improve healthcare?

There's lots of good uses for that money.

[DysLabs]

Hmm.
Yes they could do that.
But... *looks at national debt*

[noob007]

The goal is to create jobs in order to turn the deficit into a surplus, and therefore pay off the debt over time.

[DysLabs]

And yet the unemployment rate contuines to climb.
Oh - and for what Walrus said "he connects with the leople like me"
Isthat really important in a president? If so, why?
(oh god, I sound like my 6th grade english teacher)

>And yet the unemployment rate contuines to climb.

It takes time to bring an economy out of the sewer. No one has been able to do it in 4 years.

[DysLabs]

Maybe so. But the situation doesnt seem to be imlroving the slighest bit, and the fiscal cliff is in a few months.

[noob007]

The "fiscal cliff" will improve the economy, if anything.

[DysLabs]

Going overboard in debt is going improve the comeny. Mmmk.

[noob007]

Do you even know what the term "fiscal cliff" means? It's when a number of new laws come into effect in the beginning of 2013, including those tax increases for the rich and cuts in government spending.
