Hello!

[BarryFlorta]

My name is Barry. I am a college student studying economics. I came here because I need a place to go sometimes and be unbothered by the foul-mouthed atheists whom plague this great nation; and also to expand my knowledge of what it takes to be a truly good Christian.

Re: Hello!

Welcome Barry. You must be what, 19 years old by now? I hope you wife has provided Jesus with all sons so far.
I am surprised you are studying economics in stead of theology, may I inquire as to why?

I have always been interested in the theory of economics. I wish to apply the knowledge I gather from my degree to help people lead responsible lives. There are too many liberals out there taking advantage of hard working Americans. I feel it's just a shame how Americans elected such an abomination known as "Barack Obama" to lead us.

I am also unmarried. Despite being a conservative, compassionate yet decisive young man I have yet to have even date a woman. Women these days would rather be with the "stud" than a responsible young man who could help them lead healthy lives as an obedient yet well-loved housewife.

I am confused why you do not try to Save(c) people through Jesus. Saving money is really a joo thing anyways. Good white people Save Souls(c).

Preaching what you learn in theology class is only one of many ways to help people lead responsible lives. If someone knows how the economic system works, you can help them from becoming insolvent and leech welfare money. I sincerely hope to work alongside the experts of God's way in keeping working men honest with their balance sheet. Like they say, it takes a village to raise a child.

Trust me, I am far from Jewish. It's not that I want to help people save themselves through money, but to keep money (or the lack thereof) from turning them into welfare god-hating leeches. I have studied theology before, this is merely an add-on to my knowledge of the Bible and how to be a good Christian. Atop from studying theology, all my gradeschool and high school education was done at Christian institutions where learning Jesus' ways was mandatory.

It seems that you would have learned Matthew 19:23-24 in your studies.
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

Yours in helping the widows and orphans,

This is precisely why I have combined the knowledge of good monetary practices and the knowledge of what is right in God's eyes; to keep people like you on the target of avoiding both extremes in life. God loves neither welfare suckers nor hoarders.

I would love to read the chapter and verse where you get your information from.

As you can see, God himself wants us to spread the wealth in service to the poor.

Leviticus 19:9-10 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleanings of thy harvest.
And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather every grape of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and stranger: I am the LORD your God.

Socialism and communism is the wrong way to help those less fortunate. Maybe you don't know anything about what I'm going to tell you in this post, but that's only expected of uneducated fiscal liberals such as yourself.

1) Even during the Great Depression, our national household income still bought more food, goods, services, and entertainment than the other top 5 developed nations COMBINED. A capitalist society spurs productivity more than you can believe.

2) Putting people on welfare only makes things more expensive for others. Our health care system is in disrepair because of medicare and medicaid. Those programs dont even pay the hospitals and doctors HALF of what the procedures cost, making those who actually have full insurance foot their bills. Insurance costs and healthcare is so expensive to PAYING customers because the government hoses healthcare industries.

3) People in a capitalist society are happier as a whole. There's nothing like being able to control your own destiny and having that good fuzzy feeling inside knowing you've accomplished something on your own.

You guys see where I'm going with this economics degree thing?

No but I agree with what he says in that link you sent me. It's too bad we don't have him as a president instead of the pile of filth we at the helm right now.

Who is "our"? The Vanderslootens in New York city? I do believe that. Depressions are caused when too much wealth is concentrated among the top few people. It's no coincidence that the disparity in income in the USA is at its highest level since 1928.

As for your assertion that the average person could buy more goods and services, I would say prove it.

2) Putting people on welfare only makes things more expensive for others.

Then give them jobs and quit shipping them overseas. The people want to work for a living wage.

Our health care system is in disrepair because of medicare and medicaid.

Our health care system is broken because 15% of our GDP is going toward it. The insurance companies are taking 25 cents on the dollar what it costs European governments 8 cents on the dollar to do.

The cozy relationship between our government and the AMA also keeps the numbers of doctors purposely low.

3) People in a capitalist society are happier as a whole.

I suppose that is why the U.S. is repeatedly on the bottom of the standard of living lists for industrialized countries and the northern European socialist countries consistently come out on top.

Indeed I do. You want to finish ruining our country.

The United States as a whole. Quit drinking the liberal kool-aid that says the middle class is disappearing.

I don't need to "prove" it. It's a known fact.


Then give them jobs and quit shipping them overseas. The people want to work for a living wage.

And create more government jobs? I think not. How about making it cost less for business to hire people? Look at ObamaCare, that bill does nothing but raise employment costs.

Our health care system is broken because 15% of our GDP is going toward it. The insurance companies are taking 25 cents on the dollar what it costs European governments 8 cents on the dollar to do.

What does GDP percentage have to do with it? Health care is always going to be a major contributor to GDP, it's an extensively used service.


The cozy relationship between our government and the AMA also keeps the numbers of doctors purposely low.

The AMA is not keeping the number of doctors low. I don't know what kind of conspiracy theorist kool-aid you've been drinking lately, but the number of doctors has gone down purely from the massive costs involved. It costs at least $300,000 to become an M.D. these days. Despite being paid very well, doctors don't start to see much of a cash flow until their 40s just from all the loan repayment burdens.

I suppose that is why the U.S. is repeatedly on the bottom of the standard of living lists for industrialized countries and the northern European socialist countries consistently come out on top.

How could anyone possibly say that the US doesn't enjoy the best standard of living? Have you ever been to a country besides the US?


Indeed I do. You want to finish ruining our country.

If keeping people fiscally responsible is bad practice, then may the Lord strike me down right where i stand.
