I'm pretty sure the only politicians that would let the banks fail are Ron Paul and Elizabeth Warren.

If you are a libertarian and you vote for a US republican you are an idiot.

Same goes for socialists/progressives voting for democrats.


All those guys care about is ripping your eyes out and selling them to the highest bidder.


Vote third candidate, Ron Paul or just don't vote. Don't talk to me about "wasting your vote"; you sound like a fifth grader.


Hmmmm.

De-legitimizing government by way of a campaign to vote for none of the above.

 Wonder if that would work.

No, it'd look too bad. My guess is that if Romney were to win, then he'd actually set up some sort of stimulus plan because he does not want to be caught holding the bag when the economy contracts again with the whole tax rate thing kicking in sometime soon

Sources? People shouldn't just believe things they read or see on tv/internet. I am not pro-romney, or pro-ryan at all. But people should strive to be superior to the US press, not inferior.

uhh public record?

Thank you, but the original infographicer should have provided this. Now I need to search through for multiple variations on terms, etc. Really, that was just an "I'm just sayin" post. If romney wins this popularity contest it will be funny but largely irrelevant.

Or would he cave and prop them up again next time they come for public bailout monies?

Where does this man really stand on free market capitalism and reducing big government?

E.g. Will he consider disbanding/reforming/auditing the centrally-planned, monopolistic Federal Reserve banking system?
