Disagree.
I would love to be making a billion a year, I would use that money to start my own mission to mars project, invest heavily in nanotechnology innovation, etc...the good I would do with that money through my vision would only be supported by massive profits coming to me to spend at my descretion.
Now, if I shove my billion a year into some foreign bank, there should be consequences. the money being circulated here is fine, the issue is the money is being shoved overseas through corporations.
Economics is a very difficult subject..anyone offering easy answers doesn't understand how exceptionally complex. Economic professors are even still overwhelmed at just how complex things are, from fiat, credit, etc...soo much to learn, and any simple answer is ultimately the wrong answer.
I am far more concerned with outsourcing, offshore tax shelters, etc..this is theft of our resources ultimately by some anti-americans (one currently running for potus) whom use a rigged system to weaken the nation as a whole.

What is needed is for both sides to accept the -SCIENCE-
You know what else is science?
Climate change isn't only happening on earth, it's happening in other planets in our solar system as well
Other unhabited planets
What does that tell you?
Also just to let you know, you don't have 100% of scientists agreeing with you
news.yahoo.com...
But you accept it as fact just like ultra orthodox'ers have complete faith in a supreme being and consider the existance of god as fact.

Yes, it was kinda funny seeing how easily they were led by his questions. Do any of those people know how much corporations are spending on Obama's re-election? Oh, and I love the Time-warner sign in the background too!

Yes corporations are contributing to Obama's campaign. Just like how wall street and the banks are paying for Romney's.

No, it doesn't make you a bad person, it just makes you an ill-informed person on how economic principles work, it makes you an ill-informed person on free enterprise and Libertarianism.
