The 6 Pack Economist

I have a few random stories I looked and a little bit of how I feel about them.  Why because you people care what I think or you are just waiting for 5pm so you can go home and my website is as good as any.

Obama’s Eyes are bigger then his budget
I think the Blue Dog Democrates are starting to see what they signed up for when they ran in 2006.  Sure they were against the war in Iraq and started their career with rather admirable platform, unfortunately it was the rest of the stuff that goes along with running with a “D” behind your name that has scared them.  Combine that with most of the blue dogs being rather new to the game because they unseated republicans who had the seat for 8 years.    These same blue dogs are now starting to smarten up and realize that this budget is going to be a freaking disaster.  And they do not want to sign up for it.  Or all the long time democrates have gotten all the good pork projects.

New York and New Jersey will see less revenues
New York and it’s tag a long little brother New Jersey have decided that punishing the rich people for ever misdeed they want to attribute to them this week is more important than greater revenue for the state.  Raising taxes will lead to lower revenues.  Primarly because they will get the hell out of dodge.  Especially those in New Jersey or New York State.  New York City and Manhatten in particular have a certain intrinsic value.  Basicly a Manhatten address is worth about 50k a year.  But if you live in North Jersey you better like the color of rust and concrete while the rest of the state might be pretty, if you are moving anyway you mind as well go a little to the west and be done with it.

Who cares about taxes if you don’t pay them
This is a little unfair given the details of the tax problem.  It seems legit for the most part.  But it seems very hypocritical that the party of taxes is the same one that does not pay them.  The republicans tend to have trouble with airport toilets.  So democrates are hypocrites when they don’t pay taxes and republicans are hypocrites when they use their tax rebate for hooker.

I hate this crap.  It is freaking war not a damn sport played on the weekends. 

Did this guy not get the memo about the fact that in war you are trying to kill people.  You may try to not kill too many but in the end war is intended to brutal, harsh, and not something taken lightly. 

Why don’t they just outlaw bullets too?  Oh thats right when it comes down to it ,War is War and when faced with defeat all weapons will be used.  Making war more friendly just makes more war.  Keep War dirty, disgusting, and brutal lest we become too fond of it.
