Obama Wins
Ts Stormrage:
He needs to start taxing companies that get record profits and pay no taxes (G.E. for example pays 0 taxes because they have a thousand tax lawyers that find loopholes), and people that earn more than a mill a year could probably also do with a bit less... Rich people and companies dont create jobs when they have enough money, they only hire people when they need to, and prefer to keep whatever cash they have in their own pockets... "Trickle down" economics basically means getting pissed on while being told it's raining...
Meanwhile there is a crumbling infrastructure, and a desperate need to switch to alternative energy (which is ONLY called alternative in the U.S. btw)... If you tax the people and companies that have the money, and use that to get a domestic economy going again, you end up making surplusses that end up reducing debt... You know, like Clinton did...
I doesn't even matter what big projects you start to invest in from the government: Maglev from NY to LA, switching to all wind and solar power, switching the entire country to electric cars... Once you got a goal like that and you properly invest in it, it boosts domestic economy all over the place...
On top of that; where spending needs to get cut is defense... And stop subsidizing unhealty corn syrup producers and oil companies...
Finally, the chokehold that Wall Street/Big Finance and other special interest has over both parties there needs to end as well...
I'll save my rant on the american election system for another time, but I'll give you a hint: The U.S. is not a democratic nation...

He bought two swing states by bailing the car industry out.
Whose money was that he spent?
The future of America is that the unborn children will have to work til they are 80 to pay that back.
My future is now to support a group that looks to better America and I plan on being an independent in the future elections.
The election may be over but the American people can still stop his spending with protests.
I'm going to save some money up to go to Washington, DC.
I just hope in four years we see Ron Paul on the ballots.
He would of had my support this time had he been a real candidate.
I'll be praying for him to do the right thing for Americans and not his own agenda.
Ts Stormrage:
What you guys need up there are a proper leftwing party...
Suggestion came from an unsurprising corner of course... But he's right...

You're Canadian.
Also, I'm frankly quite astounded that so many Americans were uneducated enough to fall in love with Romney.
The rest of the world sees it:
And had America been stupid enough to elect Romney, they honestly deserved the shitstorm headed their way.
Now, I can't change your mind over the internet Rachel, as you've been fed a lifetime of misinformation, but I'm happy that you got the man you didn't vote for (I'm assuming). Won't bother trying to fight for a lost cause in persuading you.
