Which are Republicans better at - making money or wasting it?

[devilgrrl]

Whatever the case, they seem to do a deplorable job managing it responsibly. So why is it that they're always looked to as such financial geniuses?

8. They are genusis at putting it in their pocket

They play on the fear of a nation to create massive profits for themselves. That's what politics is about right. Ensureing that all the people who help you gain power are taken care of Who helped them gain power

[Norquist Nemesis]

9. They don't make money; they increase their debt

and THINK it's more of their money for spending.

Here's a prime example: A former colleague, staunch Republican, 'owns' her own 'business' which she 'operates' in the basement of our house. (Nothing wrong with all of those things, but the details of all of that are for another day.) Last year, she traded in her 3 year old car for the latest model. She made the decision when she took the 3yo car in for regular maintenance. On a whim.

You see, business was not going too well for quite a while. She'd cut her one and only full-time employee already because she could no longer afford it. Her credit cards were getting maxed out. So, "to save money" she traded in the 3yo and bought a new one...because it would lower her payments. :crazy: Never mind that she was throwing away 3 years of payments to sign up for 4 MORE years of payments and increased her debt. But hey! She paying less now!
