I should clarify my remarks about the big shots picking obama. I really doubt they wanted him to win, they probably preferred romney, anyone would have been better. What you may have overlooked is they have to give the sheep some sort of choice or illusion of choice. If romney was the only candidate the sheep would revolt. So they pick the demo candidate that will both do as they are told on major issues and also are acceptable to the demos. Hillbilly would have worked but she was behind in the primaries and was paid off to quit fighting.




Paid off?  :flowstone:  She fucking lost and there is no reason to believe she would have been any better than the commie cunt we got.

Average income in 1993 dollars is lower than it was then. It used to be the father worked and supported the family and was able to buy a house and save money. Today both work and are falling behind. I realize that does not concern you but the country as a whole is worse off.

We keep stirring up the anthills and the islamists who you hate end up in control. They almost took over in egypt. If we had meddled in egypt beyond throwing money at them, it would be islamist now instead of secular.




Obama encouraged the Muslim Brotherhood.  That's it.  We haven't changed the money we give them when Morsi took over and we haven't changed it since.  I don't think you have any clue at all what happened there.  Obama encouraged Mubarek's ouster but that's it.  It was entirely internal.  And Obama was so fucking stupid that he didn't realize the only organized political opposition was the MB.  The people of Egypt saw what they had elected and went nuts and the army took over.  We had nothing to do with either of it.

Your own chart proves what i said. The top quintile did well but the rest barely went up and fell way behind when inflation is factored in.

>Obama encouraged the Muslim Brotherhood.

So what, obama is a fool. I'm not talking about egypt so much when i say the muslims took over when we meddled. Look at iraq and afghanistan, we have little to no control there and radical muslims are in charge. Look at syria and the fool obumble is arming the radical jihadists. Iraq was controlled by a secular person who didn't like islam that much, saddam. But he was "bad" so he had to go now the nutcases are in charge.

>L. Ron is an anti-semitic nitwit with a child's view of the world and a PIed Piper for idiotic sophomores.

He is not in the pocket of israel, which is good. Our country should be run by us, not by an ally. Too much influence by any outside group is bad.

>I present more factual links than anybody in this forum.

Your link proved my point. Inflation means those '67 dollars are equal to $4 today which means the top quintile got a little ahead, the top 5% did very well and the rest fell way behind. Or do you believe in inflation?

The chart was adjusted for inflation.  :flowstone:

The next chart adjusts for inflation in chained 2012 dollars based on a research variant of the Consumer Price Index, the CPI-U-RS. In other words, the incomes in earlier years have been adjusted upward to the purchasing power of the most recent year in the series.

I looked at the inflation so called adjusted chart and its a govt lie. If you believe the official figures then its true but then you will have to admit you believe obama's lies along with the others. They leave out stuff like the cost of energy and food because its "volatile". So what, we all have to pay it no matter if the govt wants to count it or not. True inflation is at least 400%+ in that time period and some have said as high as 700%

>I didn't say that.  I said he is an anti-semitic idiot.  His newsletter has proven it.  Israel is one of our greatest and most useful allies.  Get over it.

The so called statement in one of his newsletters was written by someone else and he has disavowed it. 

>Actually, no.  Afghanistan is more secular now and I don't see any difference in Iraq.

No difference in iraq? Saddam was secular and now the al quaida branch is running wild. At least saddam kept them in check, now they have another country to control. Same with libya and if they have their way, with syria. Next is sudan and iran. I know you hate iran but they have not done anything wrong in a long long time.

> There are quite  few Democrats who beg to differ.  Also her health is not that great.

My great hope is she will flop the other way and not run but whether you admit it or not, she is the top democrap contender at this moment. Hill and billy back in the whitehouse, what a nightmare!

The big money people, which you are not, control the worlds politics to a great degree. A few selected billionaires make sure that no one who will not take orders gets a nomination. Quite often the top 3 or 4 in each party are sold out. Hillbilly is sold out, romney while he would have been a 10x better president, would have taken orders too. Obummer followed all the policies of bush jr that he said he was against. Every damn one and the health care takeover is just a payoff to insurance companies and a strategy to make govt in control of every aspect of our lives.

I agree the government people want to make government control every aspect of our lives.  I do not agree that that is in big money's desire.  There is no cabal conspiring to run the government.  The Koch Brothers are big money.  Where did they come down on this?  Paranoid kook is paranoid kook.

You are making even less sense now. What was it we were arguing about originally? It seems to have gotten lost in the rant. When you come up with some credible facts besides known govt lies, we can talk. Otherwise, rant alone.

We are completely off topic but the cpi is a false index that most economists do not agree with. Here is an article that even you might understand. I remember when gas was less than 50 cents a gallon and that was later than '67. What is gas today? Everyone buys gas and pays energy prices. Oil prices went from $3 a barrel to over $100 today. But energy and food are excluded from the cpi.

http://www.silverbearcafe.com/private/12.12/biglie.html

Normal people have no trouble defining how they measure inflation in their own lives. They compare what the same exact purchases of goods and services cost them today versus one-year earlier. It would include everything they spend money on.

Big ticket items like gasoline, insurance (health, life, auto and property/casualty), food and utility bills have the greatest impact. Increases in other major expense categories such as college tuition, property taxes, FICA, Federal, state and local income taxes can also add tremendously to the year-over-year true cost of living.

Those of us old enough to have lived through the 1970s remember the bad old days when prices were escalating at a sickening pace. An item that cost $1 on Jan. 1, 1969, cost $1.31 five years later. At the end of the ten year period, the cost had shot up to $1.92!

The officially reported 1980 CPI increase of 13.91% was the 'straw that broke the camel's back' in terms of what our leaders were willing to admit to. They decided to change the way CPI was calculated to avoid making people even more upset.

Intentionally understating CPI also served to diminish COLA (cost of living adjustments) in government salaries, pensions and social security obligations. It also kept the rates paid on government borrowing somewhat below what would otherwise have been demanded by bond vigilantes. Those nasty lenders insisted on being compensated for the fast-diminishing value of their dollars.

Unions across America used the high CPI rates to justify huge increases in pay and benefits. While inflation calmed down from the roaring period described below the BLS again adjusted their calculation of CPI in 1990 to further understate the truth as most of us see it.

Today's headline core CPI excludes food and energy completely. That's impossible for us to do that in our real lives. Remember the old sub-$2 per gallon gasoline prices? How about the health insurance premiums, grocery expenses and electric bills you're paying today versus four or five years ago?

Dr Paul Price doesn't even know what a big ticket item is.  It isn't food or gasoline.  It is cars and houses and boats. 

Nice cut and paste job.  I didn't think you were alive in the seventies.

People can live without boats, lol. My point was that the lying administration always uses the cpi that leaves out day to day expenses like food and gas, heat, etc. They do not want the sheep to see true inflation or unemployment figures. True unemployment is at least 14% and if you count underemployment its much worse than that.

We are quickly on our way to being a nation of mostly part timers. The ofumblecare act will accelerate that process. The fool in chief will gladly veto any bill that does not fund his pet project no matter if it puts usa into default. He will try to blame his own veto on the repubs and the media will repeat this message over and over. How stupid do people have to be to believe that the repubs made obama put us into default? He is counting on the repubs to once again cave in and give him his way.

Then, when and if the ofumblecare act is put into place the media will shout that happy days are here again. Later, the public will find out that costs have gone up and medical care is no more affordable than before, in fact less so. They will also find that many doctors will not take new medicare patients and so the lie of universal access will also be exposed.

They deliberately leave out volatile commodities like food and gas because they are, wait for it, volatile.  Obamacare is going to do just what it was intended to do, get a vast supply of voters on the government tit.  The only people who will see their costs go down are those millions who get subsidies.  By the way, young people are going to get utterly fucked.

>They deliberately leave out volatile commodities like food and gas because they are, wait for it, volatile.

And mostly because those items go up the most. Volatile implies that it goes back down after going up. Gas prices are one step back, two steps forward. Not much volatile about that. I can't recall the last time food prices went down.

Very true and the govt tit is in danger of going dry. They will no doubt blame that on conservatives rather than the spendthrift liberals who put us into this situation.

Gas prices, insanely volatile

Do you know why food prices have gone up so much lately?  The ethanol mandate, which is also increasing gasoline costs.  And lets get some more GMOs working.

Very true and the govt tit is in danger of going dry. They will no doubt blame that on conservatives rather than the spendthrift liberals who put us into this situation.




They're already doing it just like they ignore Dem stubborness and rail against Republican stubbornness.  Word to the press, The House of Representatives was also elected and a lot of them were elected specifically to ditch Obamacare.  Why are they crying about Republicans delaying some parts of it when Obama has delayed a lot more for his preferred cronies?

This has wandered a good bit afield.
