On Guard for Thee Posted April 27, 2014 Report Posted April 27, 2014 How did the war damage the economy? Answer: It didn't at all. Wars actually do the opposite. It's how the west sprung out of the depression in the 30s. However, increasing taxes, radical anti-growth environmental pollicies, and burdensome regulations are like pouring a bucket of water on a campfire. And Obama's done that since he was elected five years ago. When he leaves, I say good riddance to bad rubbish. \ How did it damage the economy? Surely you jest. Look at the debt. Stupid idiots that stick their heads under their pillows in advance of the overwhelming evidence of global warming will screw the economy even more. When the last bucket of oil comes out of the ground, get back to me. Quote
Shady Posted April 27, 2014 Report Posted April 27, 2014 \ How did it damage the economy? Surely you jest. Nope, I don't jest. Please explain to me how the economy was damaged because of war expenditures. Quote
On Guard for Thee Posted April 27, 2014 Report Posted April 27, 2014 Nope, I don't jest. Please explain to me how the economy was damaged because of war expenditures. Debt incurred with no positive downstream effect. You can spend money building a dam and then have hydro out of it. When you spend thousands of dollars firing of a Howitzer, you get nothing back. I think that's fairly simple to comprehend. Quote
GostHacked Posted April 28, 2014 Report Posted April 28, 2014 Gosthacked, are you doing InfoWars again? I thought you were quitting that stuff. -k I quite him long time ago. I just use whatever the MSM has spit out. It is damaging enough. But if you think Hillary is good for the position of POTUS, just wait till she makes Obama look like a damn saint. As Obama kind of made Bush look like a saint for 'hope and change' that we are still looking for. Benghazi was a real tragedy under her watch. And when the heat got too much, she was shuffled out of the spotlight for a while. And to say that Iraq and Afghanistan are off the table in regards to Clinton's run at POTUS, is kind of ridiculous as she voted for those wars and supported them and then did not support them and then supported them again. She is all over the place. As Shady predicted (along with me) that Obama would be terrible as POTUS, and he sure as f*ck is terrible, Clinton will be worse. You need someone that is not tainted by the current political system and with real power to change things. Quote
Shady Posted April 28, 2014 Report Posted April 28, 2014 Debt incurred with no positive downstream effect. Right, so that's what wrecked the economy huh? Too many Howitzers? That's complete nonsense. Besides, defense spending funds middle class and upper middle class jobs. Manufacturing and technology jobs. Try again. Quote
Remiel Posted April 29, 2014 Report Posted April 29, 2014 Precisely what technologies were invented because of the Iraq War that would not otherwise have been invented? Quote
