We are slowly getting set up for the "Mark of the beast"(666). Our National dept is in the trillions, we are never going to repay. The economy is going down fast.

Eventually the prophecy is going to come to pass of the one world currency system. The chip that we will put either in our right hand or our forehead. Which would be 666 mark of the beast.

America is going to eventually get so desperate because of war and the economy that they are going to set up a one world government. There we be a man who comes out of the middle east that will sign a 7yr pack to be the head of the one world government. For the first 3 1/2 yrs he is going to fix all of or most of the problems we face. He will fix the economy(666), he will bring peace in the middle east and end the war over there. He will do many great things and some will even proclaim that he is God. But after his 3 1/2 yrs is over he will become possessed by the Antichrist and he is going to proclaim that he is God and that everyone must worship him or die. From that day we will have 12hundred days left until Jesus christ returns and brings his children out of this world and into the kingdom of heaven.

You must be great fun at a party.

The only thing saving us is that the price of gas is falling, which saves people alot of money. I think we need the government to take over the bad mortages AT A SUBSTANTIAL DISCOUNT, then refinance them at like 5% and let people stay in their homes. The taxpayers could actually make money if the deal is done right. This should free up credit and stop all the foreclosures. McCain actually suggested buying these mortgages at FACE VALUE. That would be a terrible mistake and only reward the mortgage companies while leaving taxpayers to take the loss.

Thats a brilliant idea, maybe even lower than 5%, we are bailing out the banks anyway and if this money is just gonna enable them to give out more loans and mortgages its not a solution. On the other hand, if we allow the ppl to keep their houses and just give the banks enough $ not to close down(reduce interest to 0% for those with mortgages and instead just give the banks the interest$) that might be a bigger boost to the economy, imho.

as for the tires and breaks, i just got a set of "almost new" tires+ oil change for $200, and brakes shouldn't cost more than $50-70 for pads and like another $100(with tip included) at the very most in labor.

one terrorist attack on the united states led us to this point. it seems like this was the long term intention for provoking the US to enter a war it probably can't win...

It was only a small part of the hurt. The biggest part was people taking out loans for homes they could not afford and lenders giving them the avenue to do so. If you make 4 K a month and you take out a mortgage for 3k a month--then you are pretty F stupid and the lender is worse. And this happened oh say a couple of mm times over the last 8 years. Then when you cant afford to pay for it--you start buying your daily needs with CC or home equity loans. The cost of war was stupid but it couldve been absorbed. The CC mess is probably 1200 time worse.

The war[s] now are going to have to stop just from a fiscal point of view. Now we need to save that money--the economic condition of the US is 10000 times greater of a dangerous risk compared to people doing whatever 3k miles away. I think we need to cut the army in half and concentrate our funds on a larger nuclear deterrent and advanced military technology. We just need to make sure we have the massive capabilities to strike and destroy. It's like looking at a man who is 6-7 350 pounds. Do you want to mess with him? The Army doesn't really do anything necessary for us and we arent going to war with 500k troops.

nba ramifications? don't expect anybody to opt out of any guaranteed contract and the cap # may go down...

Our military spending is freaking retarded. With the $ we spent in Iraq we could have given EVERYONE in this country free health insurance AND develop+ put to work alternative energy sources to reduce our dependence on oil. The leftover $ would probably be enough to pay off the national debt or at least a part of it- instead we literally got screwed.

We're at a place now where things are already in motion. A lot of people who predicted this stuff have been predicting it for generations.

I have a question......what would happen if the countries that the US borrowed from like china who is basically paying for the war, and various people around the world that own massive land in america simply said pay up.

Let's hope ultimateknicks.com doesn't go anywhere

They need us. This country is like AIG to China. They'll just buy a 75% stake in us.

How do we "win" a war with no goal....there is no point of victory.

I think we might need to strap up and head for the mountains......ha ha ha.....sigh

There is a goal. It's called invade and take control of the natural resources. When I use the words 'the powers that be' then it means great, great deals of money possibilities and the biggest of the bigs get together and figure out ways to profit off of it. Yeah, I'm saying this whole thing was done to rape the rest of societies in the world and control them by force. Playa2 had good points to this conspiracy. It certainly all seems planned, dosen't it?

By the way, were is playa?
