    • Yes I noticed the NeoCons started wearing those immediately after Bush left office. God forbid they remember those 8 years and what they did to this place.

  • I quit shopping Home Depot when they fired the CEO for not living up to his end of the contract he signed when hired. If I remember right it buy out of the contract meant he received a golden parachute of close to 250 million. Now, I've only been fired twice in my life, but I didn't get any parachute, not even unemployment. But I've only be three days without a job. If these guys think they're in touch with the general public they're delusional. Either they charge to much for their products or t More..

    • You didn't get a"golden parachute"when you were fired
      for the same reason that a production worker at G.M.
      didn't get one.You weren't WORTH it.If you think that YOU are in touch with the general public you are also delusional.What you see as a defect in free markets,is
      exactly what makes them work so well.His pay,AND yours
      are directly decided by the market.It pays what it
      HAS to pay,to get what it needs,no more or less.If his
      pay had been out of line for what he contributed to the com More..

  • Look at India, the most democratic and capitalist country in the world. Now look at China the most socialist and undemocratic country in the world. Socialism and capitalism meant nothing to anyone if you cannot feed the people.

    The problem with USA today is Greed. It is not capitalism or socialism or communism. Americans are simply getting too greedy and refusing to share with one another. It used to be easy to feed the greed - you need labors, go grab some slaves; you need resources, go instal More..

  • Demand creates jobs, he hires people for their labor in hopes of making a profit on it. Just trying to clarify here, the going phrase "create jobs" is a bull shit one and why it is in use as it is I have no clue.

    • seriously, when has anyone "created a job"? out of nothing, it is demand that creates jobs, and demand comes from the middle class which is shrinking. Hence the downward spiral we are in, thanks to trickle down economics and "free trade".

      Systemic problems which need to be corrected before demand "creates jobs".

    • Goddamn,Zardoz,hiring people for their labor in hopes of making a profit on it,is what the entire FREE world
      does to fucking eat!What the fuck would you suggest,
      that would work better than a person,or company,hiring
      labor at a fair rate of pay,to do a fucking job?That's
      the way it has worked for me all of my life,and yours
      too,I suspect.Why is this man evil,for building a
      fucking company from the ground up,and employing
      over 300,000 people?Do you see it,not as providing
      a livelihood,but as scre More..

    • Demand means nothing if nobody gets up off their ass to meet the demand. God to the third world. Lots of demand. Little initiative to meet that demand. Mostly due to government full of left-wing ideology and corruption.

  • Home Depot? Oh for fak sake! If anyone thinks that hell hole is a good "American" business has their head up their A$$!!!

    Lowes, Wal-Mart, Sam's Club (owned by Wal-Mart), Home Depot, etc.......cheap outsourcing, low paying, very few if any bennies, or advancement jobs. And they sell nothing but cheap Chinese made crap thats either harmful, outright deadly, or designed to fall apart in 1-2 years. So you run right out and buy another like a good frickin little consumer.

    Meanwhile a More..

  • This is the problem with the Wilsonian Progressives of today (re-named liberals); they want people to think that wealth is taken from other people. They perpetuate their lie that wealth is stolen.

    It is basic economics; profit and wealth are created not taken. Notice he apologizes for creating jobs and wealth, which is correct.

    Progressives are attempting to once again destroy capitalism and replace it with a Marxist utopia.

    They will fail.

  • I've never been supported once in developing my business and I've always paid all the taxes ever due.

    ITs so hard when you get raped on every side for this or that to make an honest living.

    and they know it.

    The elites don't feel whats its like to live in this world.
