I will watch documentaries

Never heard that one. What I heard was people did not have to hold jobs the hate because of insurance

Wait a second RW you never heard that story from the WH?

It was posted on here in a few threads, you watch this as much as the mods and I do.

They have Obama care now don't have to work to pursue other interest.

The point is people no longer have their jobs dictated by having to keep health insurance

Good deal don't you think?

JFK was a liberal. There are no liberals in the Republican Party today.

There are Liberals in the Republican Party.... Many if whom want and need to be liked and loved by Democrats and the media. The minority are the conservatives. Nixon was extremely liberal going so far to create the EPA. As for JFK, his economic policies are not what today's liberals would embrace.

Okay, which parts of this would today's liberals be opposed to:

Economy[edit]
The Kennedy Administration pushed an economic stimulus program through congress in an effort to kick-start the American economy following an economic downturn. On February 2, 1961, Kennedy sent a comprehensive Economic Message to Congress which had been in preparation for several weeks. The legislative proposals put forward in this message included:[6]

1. The addition of a temporary thirteen-week supplement to jobless benefits,
2. The extension of aid to the children of unemployed workers,
3. The redevelopment of distressed areas,
4. An increase in Social Security payments and the encouragement of earlier retirement,
5. An increase in the minimum wage and an extension in coverage,
6. The provision of emergency relief to feed grain farmers, and
7. The financing of a comprehensive home building and slum clearance program.

lol Don't run off now. Let's hear your answer.

JFK Would be a Republican in 2016

Doesn't say much for JFK or the 2016 GOPers

 

[Markle]

JFK almost got us all killed back in 1962 due to his ineptitude.

Trump would get us killed in 2017 if we let him.

That much they both have in common yes.

The Soviet Union backed down.

However, JFK did make a major error in not backing the Bay of Pigs invasion.

 

[Markle]

Stupid thread premise; as wrong as it is ridiculous.

Then why did you go out of your way, then spend time to write a childish post?

JFK warned of federal government absorbing too much power at hands of states.

JFK would be a DINO, Reagan would be a RINO.

That's how fucked up things are right now.
.

Reagan was a conservative through and through.

I always love that lie.........

Do you mean "at the expense of states"?

 

[Markle]

As you know, or should know, "help" does not mean giving to the poor. That only makes them dependent and robs them of their dignity and very soul.

I am continually amazed that Republicans look at the ask not quote as a condemnation of welfare

JFK was looking for Americans to volunteer for the Peace Corps

Specifically what did the Peace Corps have to do with welfare?

JFK dropped the tax rate for the wealthy down to 70%.....I'm willing to live with that

How many jobs will you lose for the sacrifice today?

There were plenty of jobs when the tax rate on the rich was 70%

You have no clue as to how many people paid that rate or any of the rates up to that point do you.

During the years the top tax rate 70% or more, unemployment averaged 5.62%. Not good and obviously not a lot of jobs.

Do you know what the Social Security rate was in 1980? That was the last year the top tax rate was 70%.

 

[Markle]

Look fool there wasn't 90 million out of work and 50 million on public assistance in 1961, JFK would have told all you deadbeat moochers to get off your fat lard asses and work a job.

We don't have 90 million out of work...only 5 million

If you are going to tell a lie make it a whopper holy shit ^^^

Show me....and don't try to pass off labor participation as being out of work

^^^

Are you trying to tell us that 40 million retired people are "out of work"?
That 12 million moms raising their kids are out of work
16 year olds to 21 year olds going to school are out of work?
Handicapped people are out of work

That is the bulk of your 90 million out of work

the unemployment rate fell to 4.7 percent in May, but the drop came primarily because of a sharp decline in the labor force participation rate. The number of people of all ages whom the government considers "not in the labor force" swelled by 664,000 to a record 94.7 million Americans, according to Labor Department data.

Yea...we know what labor force participation rate is

Four million baby boomers retiring each year means labor force participation will continue to drop for another twenty years

From your link that you somehow left off

While much has been made over the decline in the labor force participation rate — at 62.6 percent, it is just off its lowest level since late 1977 — some economists think the fear is overdone. They argue that the drop is due in large part to an aging population, among other causes.

"Almost all of the decline that we've seen over the last decade or so is due to three factors: retiring baby boomers just leaving the labor force, college students getting more education than ever and disability," Andrew Chamberlain, chief economist at job placement site Glassdoor, said in an interview. "I don't think it's particularly worrisome."

It provided a short term economic spike that was gone by Bush 41

Long term it created 20 trillion of debt while distributing untold wealth at the top

Sure, and his economic policies carried through the Clinton and Bush II years spawning the "Third Way" so Dems and Labour in the UK could continue them without losing face.
