To be honest, the Republicans dont project all that I believe in... neither does the Democrats.

I'm more moderate than anything else. I vote for the best candidate I think is for the job- not what party they associate themselves with.


I wish more voters were like you.

I'm in college progressive organizations. I don't think we even have a College Republicans here (small-ish school and we ALL know who the Republicans are) and the College Democrats are ineffective and focus too much on political campaigns (which is good every once in a while) than issues based movements.

The great depression was caused by Keynesian economics, buddy, it was WWII that saved our asses. War is generally great for the economy.

And if you really think that they're the ones fucking with our oil, you are one misguided sob.


No it wasn't. The great depression was caused by a number of factors irrelevant to Kensysian economics. One of the worst was Hoover's raising of taxes and lowering of spending the exact antithesis of kenysian economics.

And yes they are partially fucking with our oil.

Anyone who would join a college club centered on a political party is too partisan to associate with.

no..

Nope Very liberal, Republicans are too pushy from the ones I know, plus I've never seen a redneck democrat, so I'll stay where I am.

You're telling us we should join a loose association of clubs that believes it is Conservative yet practices and supports outright liberal behaviors by the GOP and fails to notice how it's being hypocritical when it criticizes the democrats for the same behavior?

My college republican group said Bush was a Conservative. That's a sure fire way to admit your club is as dumb as brick wall and can't figure out he's a liberal.

I have a brain, therefore I refuse to join your idiotic association.

Go to a meeting if you think you might be interested in it.  Some clubs have parties afterward, I know mine does, and they are fun.  Really laid-back, because we have kind of an unofficial no-politics rule for the socials: save club stuff for the club, save party stuff for the party.  It really helps new members, so that they see we're real people.  I made a lot of great friends, and I have a fun time.  

People might give you a hard time, my friends just joke about "oh he's going to his baby-eaters meeting" but I just take it in stride.  

Don't worry about what other people think, just do what you want to do.

Join only if you are really passionate.  You can't put it on your resume.

during a war production is high because people have decided on high production in order to win the war

keyensian interventions are the same, to deliberatly increase production on credit if nessecary in order to have artificially high employment

the problem is on credit this cannot be kept up indefinatly - hence the famous statement of "in the long run we're all dead"

Astraea on my Arm Posted at 9:53 pm on June 20, 2007
That's a statement generally accepted by most economic theories, too. The difference, is that during a war, production is extremely high, meaning more jobs.

Keynesian economics screws us, b/c they're taking money from us, then giving it right back, when no one has jobs to pay taxes in to begin with. During a depression anyway.

The market will always fix itself, because the market is not stupid. A broken market means no money for anyone.

this statement is an example of keyensian economics
