The next 4 years will be good

"experts" are expecting a recession in 2013. It won't be pretty for the country as a whole.

Are these the same "experts" that were predicting a Romney win?

Imagine an America where the government couldn't "control" the people or any government for that matter. If you could do whatever the fuck you wanted, the country would've been ripped apart a long time ago. Freedom isn't free and get over it. You give up your freedom for security and knowing that, because the government is in total control, you have less of a chance of someone walking up to you in the middle of the street and blowing your head off because you looked at them wrong, because they wanted to rape your girlfriend/wife, or because they wanted the $10 in your pocket. I'm fine giving up some freedoms to insure that it is a much safer country to live in than if everyone was allowed to do whatever they pleased whenever they felt like it.
Hell a perfect example is the Walking Dead in the recent episode. The people in the community get along and the community thrives because the "government/mayor" and his thugs are in total control and everyone knows it. Governments need to be in control for the sake of the populous/community. If the community is safe and thriving, then the people are safe and thriving.

What are you talking about? No one is saying we should not have a government, police force or military. I am talking about the growing mentality that if I don't want to take care of myself and be responsible for my choices, the government should do it for me at the expense of people who do make responsible choices and/or make more money than I do.

You'd make the perfect slave.

You have been deceived.

The next 4 years will cement an irreversible process of socializing the majority of American voters such that they depend on the government and lose the incentive, desire and ability to think for themselves, work for their food, and uphold the very rights we became independent for.

If you consider that 'good', congratulations and enjoy. Our economy is precariously supported by increasing debt to ourselves and other nations. Use your brain.

Well my net options positions is up 8% this morning thanks to Obama's re election. I can't believe so many traders didn't see it coming from a mile away. To all the butthurt losers betting on their "Romney" porholio or whatever they were calling that shit the last few weeks...

And it won't be because of the President, it will be because the economy is steadily growing. They said in 2008 that it would be a long recovery and it sure has been, but now were are on the upswing and there is a lot to be positive about.
