A filibuster in the Senate requires 60 votes to break. There are 58 Democrats in the Senate. 58 < 60.

They are when they clap their ears shut and scream like retards "NOP WE DONT WANNA PASS ANYTHING YOU GUYS WANT EVEN IF ITS GUD CUZ WE WANNA MAKE SURE OBAMA IS A ONE TERM PREZ SO WE CAN MAKE THE RICH RICHER AND DO NOTHING ABOUT CUTTING THE DEFICIT EVEN THO WE SAY WE WANT TO BUT HAVE NO REAL PLAN TO DO SO YEAH GO TEAM"

speaking of which, and this coming from someone who is simply curious, do the republicans want to try and cut the deficit and still try and keep stuff they like such as tax cuts for for the rich and what not? do they actually have a plan or...?

and everyone in the tax brackets below them spends their money on the product the company they started makes, thus validating their investment plus giving them further capital
one cannot exist without the other

i think instead of the bullshit stimulus plan, he could've just given tax breaks to citizens for the same amount of money.


give everyone a tax break, let them spend some money. it could only help, imo.

it's the same sort of bullshit that kept that rich-people investment banker guy out of prison after a hit and run--he was in charge of too much money and stuff about importance to the economy
they'll let the poor become homeless in a heartbeat, but god forbid the rich have to struggle

If the lower 90% of the nation utterly collapses, who's going to support the upper 10% or better yet, who's going to defend the 10% from the incredibly angry 90?

Joe Lieberman and Bernie Sanders caucus with the Democrats...that makes 60.

You're forgiven for not knowing that since you're a Canadian and it's not really relevant to you.
