IDBillzFan Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 17 hours ago, row_33 said: Dan Aykroyd as Carter telling people to beat inflation by throwing their dollar bills into the fire was too point on and deadly, they never did that again. They actually did a second one with Akroyd as Carter which was possibly the funniest. He told Americans it was too hard to fix the economy, so his new economic policy was going to be "Inflation is our friend." I've never been able to find the video, but I did find the transcript. Quote President Jimmy Carter: Good evening. On Tuesday, we Americans will have the opportunity to exercise our role as citizens in a free democracy. Yet, only a third of the eligible voters will actually cast ballots. The other two-thirds are, in a sense, very lucky. Because they do not know what’s going on. Last week, I delivered a message on inflation. Since then, the dollar has dropped in value, the stock market has sustained record losses, and the whole sow price index increased 0.9%. In other words, our economic system is screwed, blued and tatooed! We just have to face the fact that there is simply no way to fight inflation in a capitolly-intensive, highly-technological, conflict-riddled, anything-for-a-thrill world of today. That’s why, tonight, I want you to try to look for in inflation, an entirely new word: Inflation is our friend. For example, consider this: in the year 2000, if current trends continue, the average blue-collar annual wage in this country will be $568,000. Think what this inflated world of the future will mean – most Americans will be millionaires. Everyone will feel like a bigshot. Wouldn’t you like to own a $4,000 suit, and smoke a $75 cigar, drive a $600,000 car? I know I would! But what about people on fixed incomes? They have always been the true victims of inflation. That’s why I will present to Congress the “Inflation Maintenance Program”, whereby the U.S. Treasury will make up any inflation-caused losses to direct tax rebates to the public in cash. Then you may say, “Won’t that cost a lot of money? Won’t that increase the deficit?” Sure it will! But so what? We’ll just print more money! We have the papers, we have the mints.. I can just call up the Bureau of Engraving and say, “Hi! This is Jimmy. Roll out some of them twenties! Print up a couple thousand sheets of those Century Notes!” Sure, all these dollars will cause even more inflation, but who cares? Everyone will be a millionaire! In my speech last week, I said that America would have to undergo an austerity program, but since this revolutionary new approach welcomes inflation, our economy will be free to grow, and we can spend, spend, spend! I believe the watchwords for the 80’s should be “Let’s Party!” And in that spirit, I’d like to say, “Live, from New York, it’s Saturday Night!” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njbuff Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Trump is laughing every day cause he knows there isn't one threat to him from the Demonrats in the 2020 Presidential election. The one sane one the Dems have (Gabbard) won't even get close to the nomination, which is sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of them can announce their intent, and bring in 7 figures just for the thought. Half the people running are unknowns, but it's probably good for mid six figures for their coffers. Same thing you saw with Chris Christie, Scott Walker, etc. back when the GOP was driving the clown car. I mean, how do you think Bernie Sanders came to own three houses? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Quote “Biden’s best state is South Carolina, where he has 48% support (36% in February), followed by [Iowa] with 35% (25% in February), and New Hampshire at 34% (22% in February). This represents a double-digit boost in all three states over the past three months. After Biden, we find Bernie Sanders in second in all three states, in the low double-digits. Pete Buttigieg, who was not included in our first round, finished third in all three states with support ranging from 5% in South Carolina to 11% in Iowa.” http://firehousestrategies.com/may-2019-survey/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdnlng Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Well I'll be darned, seems like the dems are confused as to the direction of their party. The candidates that want the NGD (no more cows, planes or fossil fuels), elimination of private healthcare insurance, infanticide and to raise taxes are sucking hind tit to an old white guy who likes to not only touch women, kids and men but sniffs their hair. He has more gaffes than a whaler and is himself a fossil. This has the potential of an all out food fight with one side throwing T-bones while the other side throws tofu. The undercards could have Spartacus giving the rainbow mayor a good ass whipping, while Liawatha challenges Gillibrand to a game of beer pong and Threehouse Sanders teams up with Kama Sutra Harris to show off their version of the "Brown Willy". Good times ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Quote Former Vice President Joe Biden has a 32-point lead in the Democratic presidential race in a Hill-HarrisX poll released Monday. Biden won 46 percent in the poll compared to 14 percent for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), who came in a distant second place. Former South Bend, Ind. mayor Pete Buttigieg was in third place with 8 percent, followed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) with 7 percent. https://thehill.com/hilltv/what-americas-thinking/442310-joe-biden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeginnersMind Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 4 hours ago, DC Tom said: Can you even name three without googling them? Exactly. But that huge field made it exciting. When there was discussion that the Rs might go to the convention, and how “bad” that would look, I took the opposite view. If we get a televised and live-tweeted contested convention, the winner of that will get a massive boost in popularity because people will have actually enjoyed the primary. The current primary anointment ceremonies are a snooze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdnlng Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Actually, I wonder what bone fides any of the dem candidates have as it pertains to foreign policy? Excluding O'Biden, who has had a perfect failure rate when it comes to dealing with other countries I don't know who does. Threehouse Sanders did honeymoon in Russia and Liawatha did have to apologize to the Cherokee Nation so there's that, but it seems to be the extent of their experience.

B-Man Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 JOE BIDEN: “First thing I’d do is repeal those Trump tax cuts.” I’m betting what he really means is he’d repeal Trump’s SALT-exemption limits which hit well-to-do lefties in high-tax blue states with higher tax bills. In other words, Biden would give the rich — the right rich — a tax break and sock you with the bill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
