If you realize both parties in Washington think that our money is theirs and you trust them to do the wrong thing, this list is for you.
If you think there is a Santa Claus who is going to get elected in Washington and cut your taxes, spend a few trillion and that will jump-start the economy, this list is not for you.

The Austrian School’s Commandments plus :From : link
1) You cannot spend your way out of a recession
2) You cannot regulate the economy into oblivion and expect it to function
3) You cannot tax people and businesses to the point of near slavery and expect them to keep producing
4) You cannot create an abundance of money out of thin air without making all that paper worthless
5) The government cannot make up for rising unemployment by just hiring all the out of work people to be bureaucrats or send them unemployment checks forever
6) You cannot live beyond your means indefinitely
7) The economy must actually produce something others are willing to buy
8) Every government bureaucrat should keep the following motto in mind when attempting to influence the economy: “First, do no harm!”
9) Central bank-supported fractional reserve banking is an economically distorting, ethically questionable activity. In particular, no government should ever do anything to save any bank from the full consequences of a bank run, no matter what the short-term consequences.
10) Gold is God’s money.
Add mine:
1) Businesses don't hire workers just because of demand for products or services, they hire because it makes them money. Sorry to have to state the obvious.
2) Government spending without taxing is still redistribution
3) Taking one man's money and giving it to another is not a job.
4) Paul Krugman and Bernake have been wrong about everything, as well as the other best and brightest Keynesian's who have been fixing our economy for over a decade.
5) Republicans in the minority (esp out of the White House) act like Republicans, in the majority they act like Democrats .
Equity bubble rules:
1)If something goes up too fast, it is going down faster,
2) By the time it looks like everybody is getting rich, it’s too late, stay out!
3) To get rich you have to get in early start of recovery and get out at the first really 'bad' news, and ignore the experts that claim that they will stop the next crash(our buddy Bernake.).
4) Don't invest money you will probably need, or worse money you don't really have.
Example in a Maryland county :
In Prince Georges County, it is illegal for an employer to discriminate on the basis of race, creed, color, sex, age, national origin, occupation, marital status, political opinion, personal appearance, physical or mental handicap, or sexual orientation .

My suggestion to Ms. Razmataz is that she go to India and try out to be Ms. New Deli. She might just win there.
Of course if an Australian tried to win Ms. New Deli(catessen), she would be laughed off the subcontinent.
I wish they had been that honest with me when I sent in my photo resume instead of just sending me to the freak show at traveling circus where I got turned down...
She looks gorgeous.
But If I’m an advertiser and looking to gain market share in a certain demographic, I would choose those who I would want to represent my product accordingly.
Sometimes the truth is unpleasant, but you cannot force someone to hire you for a marketing campaign, when you are not representative of the target audience.
She should move to NYC or LA, she could work practically every day.
Have you heard of any famous Maryland modeling agencies? Neither have I.
She has Marty Feldman eyes. o><O
Maryland lives off the milk of the Federal government, it doesnt need Model agencies. They are hiring, building houses. Taxpayers havent figured it out yet that they are losing their job, house while DC, MD and Northern VA party. .
She looks just as caucasian as any Italian, many French, Greek, Spanish or Portugese. As a matter of fact, I would be proud to add her name to the front pages of my Bible.
o><O
LOL! Good one.
My understanding is that Indians, although not "white", are indeed Caucasian. Caucasians can be dark-skinned.
There is nothing so unequal as the equal treatment of unequals.
“My understanding is that Indians, although not “white”, are indeed Caucasian. Caucasians can be dark-skinned.”
That’s my understanding too.
It has nothing to do with skin color, but hair structure.
Bitter much? I live in Maryland, in Montgomery County, and people here are losing their jobs and houses here just as they are doing elsewhere. I haven't noticed anybody getting a new job either. Nor have I seen new housing construction; developments seem to have come to a standstill. There are new beggars on the street corners, the food banks are denuded almost as soon as the doors open, and a guy in my neighborhood killed himself because he was getting foreclosed on. It's not like Detroit, but when you talk about Maryland and NoVa partying, I don't know what you're talking about.
Since Noah's Ark landed atop Mt. Ararat which are in or near the Caucasus Mountains, I suppose we're all Caucasian in the sense that we're descended from one of Noah's three sons, Ham (dark skinned), Shem (light skinned) or Japeth (in between).
It has been forty years since I studied all this (at the library, not in school) but the books I was reading then showed three major classifications, CaucaSOID, MongoLOID and NegROID. Caucasoid included all whom we currently refer to as “Caucasian” as well as people from India, Australian aborigines and the semitic peoples. That is not to say that Caucasoid is the same as Caucasian but Indians and Danes do belong to the same large grouping. At that time these groupings were based mainly on differences in bone structure and had little or nothing to do with skin color. Most people would assume that Aussie aborigines are Negroid but not so according to the books I studied.
