Yeah, a lot of posters on these forums (and throughout the internet) have been saying this for years. While there are several conspiracy theories why most governments choose such misleading methodologies to calculate statistics, the simplest and most reasonable explanation is that individuals would be less willing to support the government’s meddling in the economy if they knew how little benefit there was from it and how much damage they were doing.


bull, its Libertarian scum that are causing the problems by refusing to let the government do more to tackle the issues, if the self righteous vermin were kept well away from politics things would have gone much better.

Yeah because the things governments have done to date have been such a huge success, so obviously if they were allowed to do more of it we would be even more successful!

if they were a good, left wing government, yes they would, problem is you muppets block left wing politicians from getting in, now you are punishing the poor for wanting representation, well done.


Oh for sure. That is why places dominated by left wing politics are doing so much better than places dominated by right wing politics.  I mean look at California or Detroit, they are totally solid.  If places like Texas would follow their example they wouldn't be so bad off right now, you know what I mean?


ha, there is no PROPER left wing politician in the USA, you guys make sure of that, Obama is as much of a Socialist as I am an Iguana. but you guys are so pathetic you slander him as being one, which is vile and pathetic and only serves to show you ignorant USA'ians up to the rest of the world.

read up on Clement Atlee's 1945 UK government, that is as close as the USA or UK have come to some real Socialism, take your misrepresentaiton and ignorance and ram it up your self righteous arse.
