Big Booger Posted April 4, 2002 Share Posted April 4, 2002 Increase spending for impoverished people and nations. decrease pork barrel spending for public works, government, and state programs. Increase spending in education increase spending on science and technology specifically aimed at the Aerospace industry I'd try to create partnerships with foreign nations in joint venture projects to increase the living conditions of all peoples of the world I would streamline the military whilst reducing the budgetary spending, but increasing the efficiency of every dollar spent to create a better military with less money.... Etc.. BB Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/21195-bush-is-doing-a-bad-job/#findComment-179778 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozart Posted April 4, 2002 Share Posted April 4, 2002 And where would you get the money to increase spending? Isn't the U.S. just getting out of a recession? And isn't it going to cost billions just to get back to the way things were before 911? Most of the ideas are worthy, but who will pay?

twist Posted April 4, 2002 Share Posted April 4, 2002 he would take the money he saves from the military and spend it on something useful. mine wouldn't cost anything, well hookers can get pricey, but i can cut something Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/21195-bush-is-doing-a-bad-job/#findComment-179818 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonnyr Posted April 4, 2002 Share Posted April 4, 2002 Increase spending for impoverished people and nations. Their leader just put it in Swiss banks. The people never see it. decrease pork barrel spending for public works, government, and state programs. Only Congress controls spending. A President can't spend or decrese spending by a dime. Increase spending in education Was proposed to Congress and has passed and signed by the President. increase spending on science and technology specifically aimed at the Aerospace industry Proposed. Congress is holding it up in Commitees. I'd try to create partnerships with foreign nations in joint venture projects to increase the living conditions of all peoples of the world Answered above. It is not in our power to get these tin horn Dictators to feed and educate their people. They just bank the money we send them. I would streamline the military whilst reducing the budgetary spending, but increasing the efficiency of every dollar spent to create a better military with less money.... Again answered above. Congress has a vested interest in saving Bases, spending money on unneeded equipment, and yet you blame the President. Congresses Pork = Votes. You seem to think a President has more powers than he is afforded under the Consitution. It's clear you are truly indoctrinated and the above responses wil be laughed off as nothing more than the rantings of a Right Wing Radical. I'm an Independant who understand how the Government works. You don't like President Bush, vote him out, elect Gore, have the same situation still in place, but you can say that your man is in and everything is fine.

Big Booger Posted April 4, 2002 Share Posted April 4, 2002 Did I say anywhere that these goals were realistic? No Did I imply to you that this would occur in the US? No Did I imply to you that I am pro-Bush? No Did I imply to you to comment on my statements? NO Thanks though you do seem to know your politics and I commend you on that effort, however the question was what would you do if you were president... Not what would you do if you were president in America, or a president that has to answer to congress etc.... I do realize this was about BUsh, but I purposely made my statements very general and indeed they may overlap with what Bush is aiming for, I do think that Bush is screwy when it comes to the environment, foreign diplomacy, SS, the surplus etc... thanks BB Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/21195-bush-is-doing-a-bad-job/#findComment-179925 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonnyr Posted April 4, 2002 Share Posted April 4, 2002 Did I imply to you to comment on my statements? NO In an idealist's world, no one would need comment. In a realist's world, it simply needs stating. I too have a lot of I'd's. It's refreshing, but only for a moment. When, or if, we brirg the I'd into reality, perhaps change for the better can become reality. Thanks You're welcome.

superbeast Posted April 4, 2002 Share Posted April 4, 2002 Why do we even post on these threads that are started for no other reason than to cause conflict and flaming? Does fultonhoward (a full 3 posts into his Neowinian career), really consider himself a top notch political analyst? Is he secretly some political expert working from inside the Whitehouse staffroom? Is he DNC? Some foriegn propogandist? Who is fultonhoward, and why should we care about such a generalized, unsubstantiated post? Just curious...

Tim Dorr Veteran Posted April 4, 2002 Veteran Share Posted April 4, 2002 Basically, I wish Bush wouldn't go around calling other nuclear powers "threats". Then I'm basically ok with him. But the guy's itching to get his name attached with a war so he can down in history or something like that...

tacoman Posted April 4, 2002 Author Share Posted April 4, 2002 :D maybe i'm biased, but bush seems to be getting the europeans preety mad. the tarrif against european steel backfired on him and now the europeans are refusing to buy our steel! :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/21195-bush-is-doing-a-bad-job/#findComment-180319 Share on other sites More sharing options...

(i must agree with you: the taxes on european steel were a bad move, and the europeans are angry on this) there is so much to say about what i don't like about our leaders, but what can we do...almost nothing, we ellected them, now we must live with them. we can only change them after they will finish their government period and hope the next who will come will do better.

Gooey Posted April 4, 2002 Share Posted April 4, 2002 yeah, that steel thing was out of order. In the UK our steel industry colapsed and loads of poeple lost their jobs, same with coal, ship building, car manufacturing and so on. We didn't impose tarrifs, just to try and protect ourselves from natural economic forces. I get the feeling that Bush doesn't really want to see the bigger picture, he's too pro American anti-everyone else. What I'd like to know is he say that any country that harbours terrorists will get turned over by the US, does that mean he'll invade the UK as we have the IRA who have been blowing people up for over 20 years now and have been funded by American money? :( now I'm angry :disappoin Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/21195-bush-is-doing-a-bad-job/#findComment-180339 Share on other sites More sharing options...
