| Posted By: SoDuEye Posted On: Oct 6, 2008 Views: 328 | RE: End Poverty How about we give the 60 million that are working in the bottom bracket of wages an $8/hr raise. That would equal the same since most people living in poverty do work, they just don't make enough. That would include everyone making less than 50/k a year. |
| Posted By: barrie Posted On: Oct 7, 2008 Views: 303 | RE: End Poverty sadly any options that revolve around simply giving money away would cause a dramatic inflation, undoing the good youre trying to accomplish. you have to use it to build infrastructure and irrigation etc - and seeing as youd have control of the trillion dollars the widespread corruption and bureaucratic inefficiency that currently impedes this strategy would hopefully be bypassed |
| Posted By: Barack Hussein Obama Posted On: Oct 7, 2008 Views: 298 | RE: End Poverty I promise that, if elected, I'll reintroduce the Welfare State mentality that has kept "my" people in bondage for so long. I'll say anything to get elected. You'll notice "my" in quotes because, as a Harvard-educated elitist lawyer, "they" certainly aren't "my" people. Eww. |
| Posted By: Dip**** racist redneck moron Posted On: Oct 7, 2008 Views: 291 | RE: End Poverty I am the Obama poster above. You have to excuse me because I am a racist loser that has a failure of a life. I need to belittle him to hide my feelings of inadequacy. I would say sorry but I'm not. I plan on continuing until I am either arrested on illegal weapons charges and child pornography or until my whiskey still blows up leaving me without hands, half a face and ****ting in a bag. |

| Posted By: Barack Hussein Obama Posted On: Oct 7, 2008 Views: 280 | RE: End Poverty Right you are, SweetPeaches. I have no idea what you just said, but I'm fully in agreement with it as long as I got your vote. I'll say anything and promise you the world as long as you vote for me. By the way, have I mentioned I'm a Harvard-educated elitist lawyer? Shakespeare had the right idea when he suggested killing all the lawyers. |
| Posted By: BaracKKK Hussein Obama Posted On: Oct 7, 2008 Views: 279 | RE: End Poverty By the way, I'm participating in the debate with McCain as I'm writing this. I hope you're not watching, because I'm getting my ass kicked. Sho 'nuff. |
