JUST HOW MUCH MORE 'CHANGE' DO YA THINK YOU CAN STAND?

[Mustaine]

Dutch closest I can get

mietla, u is een hoser, maar is juist over math, zoals ik te hierboven op wees

can't find a single swiss translator

[mietla]

FO Mustaine. I need my fish

[mietla]

Apparently for you, english is painful.

Oh. cm'on SkyRock take pity.  Reel me in? (in Swiss)

[mietla]

BTW, I am obviously not aware of your age. I am 98, so whatever age you are. I think that you can find in your heart to give me a handicap... I hope.

Just give me terms ((max distance of 6 feet) and I'll meet you there.

Unless you are a yellow belly.

The challenge is a 4 ft. grammar and spelling (In your own language)

Cap1,

Stop thinking of the relationship of the 4.5% to 100% of the overall employment rate. 4.5% was the total unemployment before. In that case the 4.5% is actually 100% of the unemployed.

Now the change in unemployment to the total of employable workforce to 5% is not just .05 of the total it's actually 10%+ of the 100% of the unemployed that had been counted as 4.5% (now 5%) of the entire population of employable people. It's not just straight addition and subtraction of the entire population.

The change is .05 of the entire employable population but is a 10%+ change in the population of the unemployed. Those are 2 different populations not just one.

thank ya sir......now i get it. i was thinking wrong. all i needed was for someone to explain it like you just did.

[CAP1]

Am I banned? the silence is killing me.

i only just got home. maverick and you explained it well. i got it now.

but..i don't know what the parenthesis are for though......

[CAP1]

Oh hell no.  We were still deep in debt, we were not just borrowing so much.  The budget was balanced for the last few years of Clinton.

Let's see... somewhere it says...
 

So apparently it is Congress, not Clinton or Bush who tax, spend, and borrow.

So it was the Congress at the time who balanced the budget, then blew the lid off of it later.

well......although i've been guilty too, of laying blame on a president, i've pretty much always(in verbal conversations) of saying the president and the powers that be(meaning congress, the guys that bribe them, etc.....)

 i think to the politicians way of thinking, if we were borrowing less, then in their eyes, we were out of debt

[CAP1]

And to answer your question directly, it was not as easy as my other languages but I hope I can finally get my point across in it.

It is my fourth language, and I was talking about a grade 0 math.



P.S. Just to impress me please answer me in Swiss. (you can find a web translator somewhere)

Tack sir. jag uppskattar att du tar dig tid att förklara detta för mig.

I love the last paragraph....

"Today, the New Direction Congress..."

Nancy Pelosi, sheesh! New Direction Congress. How do these people get elected how?


BTW, I blame all of congress. The Republicats went berserk with pork barrel spending. Plus they had a majority at one time why didn't they free up drilling.

THEORY A) the election system is bogus. it is used onl to keep the sheeple thinking they have some form of control over thier government. our "elected" officials are actually appointed.


THEORY B) the country is full of incredibly stupid people

THEORY C) our politicians are expert liars, and they play on theory B. they will promise the world with a fence around it, sheeple believe them. after 6 months, most forget what they were promised.

It would be C with a thicker mix of B in it. Too many people play party politics, and the career politician's play up on that.

Does anyone else notice that the Obama mantra of "change" tells us very little, and that defenders of that empty suit will rally to his side lacking their own ability to explain exactly how he will make anything better?

Nobody, even the most blind moonbat can tell us that he has the experience to lead a large nation.  Nobody can deny his limited history is absolutely one of the most liberal non-inspiring histories of anyone ever to seek such a high office.

In the last 6 months, his flip-flopping on issues has been extremely evident, with the 2nd amendment as a prime example.

Honestly, I can see NO reason why I or anyone else should vote for this empty suit.
