New housing starts at an annual rate of approximately 900,000 units in November mean jobs for housing construction, furniture, appliances, cars, schools, etc. We need consumers to buy those houses, which the "job creators" building them apparently think will be there, even in this Obama dominated economy.

You may think that car trailers, yachts and wine cellars for the 1% are the drivers of the economy, but that's simply not the case. Without consumers, there are no jobs. Perhaps you disagree and can explain why; or perhaps you disagree but can't explain why.

Here's the simple non-semantic assertion - without consumers, there are no jobs, and putting more dollars in the hands of the lower and middle class more directly translates to consumer spending and, yes, jobs.

Notice, no semantics, just clear assertions based on facts. But feel free to "surrender" again and preach to the true believers about the 47% leeches who are destroying this country.

I'm pretty sure that what I was saying is that I don't care to engage YOU. I love to discuss all kinds of stuff. I'm just not going to do so with YOU. You're like a drunk guy in the bar - you just want to pick a fight. I'm not interested in discussions like that.

I get that, many folks would prefer to avoid discussing an issue with someone who both disagrees and can muster facts rather than reaping the praise of the adoring sycophants.

Have at it, I won't bother trying to introduce facts into your wealthy guy pity party any more.

Your posts are why no one takes you seriously....You went off the edge and you cannot crawl back up...

No one takes you serious anymore. And you are to blame. you see RealCorey doesn't agree with us, but the way he discusses things makes us want to discuss things with him...He posts like an adult, you don't..BIG difference..

We can continue discussing opposing views with an Adult, Real Corey...He doesn't agree with some of us, but it is a pleasure to exchange ideas with him..You, like greg says, the drunk at the bar...No one listens...You want to be heard ? Change your attitude..

good idea Mike. I think we'll call this a wrap. We don't allow political topics on the site for the most part, but this one went a lot longer and better than I thought it would, so for those participating I thank you.
