I believe the government needs reforms in how they allocate funds going forward but the anti government sentiment and comparisons to communism/socialism is delusional.

    Seriously if Obama is a socialist then what does it make the leaders of America's allies like Canada, UK, etc.????
    I'll never call myself a republican or a democrat again. Too much baggage.

    That's one faction in the Republican party I wholeheartedly disagree with. The religious fanatics in the Republican party are really kind of absurd.

    thats fine by me, wind and solar are both becoming more and more viable by the day. at this very moment, germany currently generates 25% of their power from renewables, and can reach 50% or more on sunny days.

    50% of new generation built in the USA last year was renewable. the future is coming hawker
    You clearly don't know the difference between tax breaks and subsidies. They receive tax breaks just like ALL industries do. There's even a manufacturing tax break I believe that people count as O&G and Apple and Microsoft use it as well. Are we really counting the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Bill as an O&G tax break? Really?

    And wind energy can only compete because of enormous tax breaks. Without them, they wouldn't exist.

    And the future is coming? Yeah, no s[COLOR="Black"]h[/COLOR]it. It's funny how you think I'm some blood for oil/gas dude totally against new technologies. Again in 2050, all energy will still be majority O&G. I work in O&G because whether you like it or not, people need it. And I like it.

    Republican obstructionism approaches all-time nadir of ridiculousness: Senator Mitch McConnell filibustering his own bill.

    They really are out of control.

    I think the conservatives only care about Israel.

    woould somebody be able to explain to me what exactly this means? what is filibustering?

    and the 'debt ceiling', is that just how much of a debt the government is allowed to go up to?
