The US government has hit the debt ceiling and is now raiding the private civil servants pension funds to pay for the day to day government operations. Things are really starting to heat up. Everyone knows the US is dead in the water. They aren't going to pay anyone back. This is pretty crazy though to directly steal from the people who paid into the pension fund.

FUCK YOU! :RockOn::BSPost::CrackUp::EatMe::EvilFlic::Anal:

Re: US Raids Pension Funds to Pay for Government

^^Not really sure who got your panties in a twist today...interesting article. The media rarely dares to mention that there is even a chance of the US defaulting. . .the markets would not take that well lol Anyway...the debt situation is pretty dire...i hope they manage to pull in the reins a little otherwise we are all fucked.

Re: US Raids Pension Funds to Pay for Government

Ya I don't know why I got the FU. It is the gov't stealing from their people not Runningman.

I guess when you know deep down that the shit is about to go down you just lash out at the messenger.

Tax cheat Geithy just said another [URL="http://www.newsmax.com/Headline/TimothyGeithner-DebtCrisis-TARP-TooBigtoFail/2011/05/18/id/396840?s=al&promo_code=C494-1"]meltdown is certain[/URL], not that this idiot is particularly [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=368"]worthy[/URL] of trust. That's what happens when the perpetrators (incl. the govt) get rewarded, the unsustainable mess just intensifies. So you either have to live in denial like certain head-in-the-sanders here, prepare if you have the resources or be a miserable f*ck on suicide watch as you stand by watching helplessly as the country careens off the cliff.

So when someone posts a thread about something that doesn't interest me...i should just go and write who care...how old are you 12?? Please grow up. You shouldn't take anything posted that is in any way critical of US domestic or foreign policy as a personal attack. You need chill the fuck out.

Please unfurl thine panties from whence they've become twisted. Everyone here knows there isn't anything constructive going on in this forum anymore.

It is: scan news. post news about how the white west (and one very bad black guy) are ruining the world. repeat.

Re: US Raids Pension Funds to Pay for Government

i think FO was referring to the US gov't, not you RM. maybe not, though. :lol:

lol...ok. Seriously... I think you should speak to a therapist . . .and I mean that in a nicest possible way...just someone to talk to...you seem to associate some things very close to your own ego and you seem pretty angry. This causes these outbursts - as you see all of this bullshit as an attack on you, personally. I don't think I know all the answers...but you should take a scientific approach to life, news etc...i.e. its true until proven otherwise and accept the any possible explanations based on empirical data...maybe I am wasting my breath here. Really didn't mean to sound patronising or insulting...

i think this is a grand policy. srsly. the distribution of wealth is so imbalanced, worldwide, that i would deem it right on point to siphon funds from a wide array of the super rich, primarily; also, i'd estimate that a significant number of them are obviously horders of money - swollen with greed and avarice. time to fix our government so that it may be in sync with the hidden government. o.O
