Finally manged to to watch the speech. Pretty good speech...laid out his plan for change, beat up on McCain...all in all I give it two thumbs up.
While I agree with you that he is a great speaker the way he plans on paying for his 830 billion 28% increase in goverment is very flawed. He wants to cut current spending most of which is allready tied up in current bills which he will have to change. I'm not sure how he will get that done because you will have some people in congress who likes the bill and other who will have no problem doing away with that spending bill. This will be true rather its the Dems who supported the bill or the rep. who supported the spending. So he will have to pass his new spending hedged on hoping to reduce current spending and that will be very tough. Or, he will just increase the def..

You are missing my point if you live in butt fuck, middle america in a town with one stop light you can work your hands to the bone and there is still no jobs to advance up in.
Well while thats true to some areas that is a small %. Is this true in your area?

No I live in a sub of B-more. Do you think there are more small towns in the US or Tyson Corners? I would bet on small towns.

Not really sure but the one light towns your talking about some I have been to have pretty good wealth they just don't flaunt it. I do know there are areas where what your saying is true but I still think its a small %.

Then you can not live in the mibdle of nowhere. It isn't impossible to work your ass off, save some money and move a couple hundred miles to your state's biggest city and find a better paying job. A lot of people using this type of excuse fail to realize they are choosing to live where there aren't any opportunities.

No I did hear that on a McCain comercial but I have read it in other places and at the moment I can only find this article.
Larry Kudlow on Barack Obama's Economic Plan on NRO Financial (http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=MGYxYWM4NjkxMjUwMzBhZDAwNTg2NjZmYmU5MWU2ZmQ)=
I wanted to fined something where you would not point to the source and say bias which I would understand with this source.

Most small towns that he is speaking of is not where you hear the whinning about hard work and pay. Its more in the larger cities where I hear people complaining.
