even some conservatives are starting to realize that the only thing that grows forever is cancer, not the economy, and when it outgrows its host, it dies right along with it.

everything expands AND contracts in life. making more money than anyone else is no longer the be all for many people - they want their LIVES back and hang the rat race/slavery to big money.

I have an idea.

There are thousands of people who are in desperate need of medical care. The worst part? They can't afford it. Over the years, pharmaceutical companies have increased the prices of manufactured drugs that cost barely a cent to make to make profits anyone could only dream of. Care and time to save lives has had a cost stamped on it, that makes it impossible for thousands, hundreds of thousands to afford even basic health care. So for your good deed, why don't you do something, something like supporting a way to bring affordable medical care, to those who desperately need it.

I guess somewhere, I forgot that caring about your fellow man, was something to be shunned and hated.

As futile as it may be, and as sure as I am that you would probably find a way to distort and warp the information. I would suggest that you investigate other countries, those in which taxes are a good deal higher than America, which in comparison to other 'capitalist' countries, has pretty low taxes, across a great range of products/services, and especially in income tax for the rich.

I highly doubt that you will ever step back, objectively look at any information you read, or even reflect for one second on your own views.

Maybe you should consider a career in working for Fox News, or in some other capacity where you can spew narrow minded, and opinionated ideas that are so far from the truth.

The saddest part is, you won't even notice this. You won't take one second to step back and objectively read anything, or think about anything.

how lovely for them that they could afford to take a four year holiday...or more if they are still hiding in the bomb shelter waiting for the bad times to leave...

every man for himself, what a lovely worldview! and all that sunshine missed...when they come out they will find a world where japan is not tourable anymore, the top 5% of the country have 10 times as much money as they did before obama, and no one wants to work in their outdated business model anymore anyway..

so i hope that hiatus being permanent won't be too boring and disappointing for them. the solar companies are rushing toward the future, detroit is making cars that stretch the price of gas, and the sky truly did fall, obama was reelected.

President Obama was rightly outraged at what happened yesterday at the Boston Marathon and I hope the perpetrators are brought to justice. At the same time, however, Barack Obama presides over bomb attacks on civilians, attacks that occur without warning, and attacks that not only kill alleged "militants," but women, children, and the elderly, especially when the bombings are launched at weddings, which one would think would allegedly be a joyous celebration just as the Boston Marathon has been.

While Obama demands justice in the Boston bombing, he is silent about his own role in setting off bombs in overseas countries. If Sen. Lindsey Graham is correct and the U.S. drones have killed about 4,700 people abroad, then we are talking about something that dwarfs the horror of what happened at Boston.

I am not speaking of *** -for-tat. However, I am sure that the horror that people in Muslim countries experience at a drone strike is every bit as awful as what people experienced in Boston yesterday. I do not believe that we are free to denounce the evil at Boston and cheer on the evil our government perpetrates overseas. We must denounce both or risk being the worst hypocrites on the planet.
