solid economic growth at end of 2004

[amsterdam]

solid buisness and consumer spending helped the economy grow in the last quarter of 2004 at an annual rate of 3.8%,the first quarter of 2005 is expected to do even better.

the economy added a sizeable 262,000 jobs in february,the most since october.independent analysts are hopeful another 220,000 were created in march.

The federal deficit will hit a record $477 billion this year.

if it aint one thing it's another.the economy is going strong and will continue to grow.people always need something to bitch about.

the national debt is almost $8 trillion dollars. trillions have gone missing from the pentagon...with no explanation.

that's about $25,000+ per every person in the US, with a generous population of 300 million, under a federal reserve system, it's impossible to pay that back.

if we did, there would be no money in circulation, not to mention the money is borrowed at interest, so you'd have to create more money to pay the interest. it's a scam, a profitable one if you run the bank especially.

that's a just thing to bitch about.

[amsterdam]

it is.but the economy is still coming along well.

[pisshead]

that's like a family of four saying, we're in debt over $100,000, but things are okay! we'll just get into more debt to help us get out of debt! that's quite some doublethink going on.

under a controlled stock market and federal reserve fiat currency system based on nothing, things will without a doubt, inevitably crash.

[amsterdam]

it isnt gonna crash.im not saying we aren't in debt but that's extreme.i'm not to worried.

[weirdo79]

Probably not in our lifetime but the simple equation of "minimum wage" not equalling inflation basically guarantees on a simplistic level it will crash and hard. Poor people arent just going to "sit" there and starve to death. It's going to be violent too....

[amsterdam]

violent,real scary.people worry to much.it's all a cycle,.
