    Default Call his next 4 years...

    With all the discussion on who is right and wrong...lets find out. Jimmy if you can sticky this thread. Lets hope this and IA stay around till 2016. Simply call what you think will happen with the country in this term. No bashing and shit, if you cannot make an educated prediction on how him in the office in the next 4 years will go, do not guess. Doesn't matter what time frame you call, just post up a date, month or year and what you think the current situation of the government/country will be. We can rebump this thread every year or so and see who is correct and who is wrong. That way come 2015 we can see who's opinion matters and who literally keeps their head in the sand.

    2014:
    UE around 11-12%
    Value of $1 = $.70
    Healthcare system swinging more private; return result will be higher health insurance cost
    Mass movement of jobs/corp going over seas
    Debt up around $18T.
    Gas national average $4.30 per gallon
    Middle east conflict still continuing

    2016:
    UE around 13-14%
    Value of $1 = $.68
    Obamacare enforced, healthcare system mostly private; health insurance cost even higher
    Most larger corporations moving production jobs over seas
    Dept upwards of $22T
    Gas average at $5 a gallon
    Economic and civil unrest at a historic high.

    Simple as that. Add what you want, just put what you think overall we will be. No editing your post, if post are edit 1 month+ after they are made, your opinion will be out. Lets keep this fair and see who thinks what and who is close to correct.

    Its pointless.... Obama supporters dont know the issues today, if they did they wouldnt be Obama supporters... how can they predict the future. More than 1/2 of Obama supporters probably couldnt tell you when the next election will be and if they could, their most important issue is probably wondering if there will be another black candidate to vote for.

    I think Jimmy's smart enough not to sticky this partisan bullshit.

    it seriously seems that the rashness and harshness is more from those who dont support Obama than those who didn't support Romney/those who didnt support either/vote. the election process is done. people need to chill the fuk out. why am i speaking out? because i've already recieved undue lashing out by a white person this morning on the way to work by attempting to be run off the road. y'all seriously need to chill the fuk out, seriously

    You wanted the black president. We wanted the right president. Sorry we're a little upset.

    Blank, thanks for only proving my point. You would rather bash and condescend than make an educated guess. I am simply making my prediction of what will come. That way, we can see who truly votes on policies and has an understand versus those, like you, who simply bash others for being smart.

    Also when I said one sides rhetoric, I said just that, one sides. I did not specify which side, if my guess gives you an idea who which side I lean, fine. But you simply assumed this had to do with sides. i did not say post the side you support, I asked for an educated guess. Something you cannot seem to do.

    This is simply a discussion...if in 2-4 years we are leaps and bounds better off, then it will show that I am being to harsh. Or I am right and it shows that maybe some were right and a lot were very wrong. Simple as that.

    Yep, chill out, relax and let socialism run its course. At some point in our lifetimes we will look back on this day as one of the biggest mistakes in history. Sadly, its too late now. Only option available is to "chill out"

    You proved your own point when you made this thread. You don't want anyone else's opinion, you want others to validate your own convoluted preconceived notions. This thread does nothing to promote bipartisanship, and its only purpose is to further the narrative. It's clear, it's obvious, and transparent thread is transparent.

    My educated guess: in 2016
    IA will STILL be here. America will still be the same America with the same partisan division line. Unfettered socialism will still be unfettered socialism, communism will still be communism and NONE of it will exist in the U.S. If taxes go up and your business closes its doors, it will only be because you weren't smart enough to continue to turn a profit.

    So you again prove my point that you cannot make an educated guess. You can guess the outcome of a football, basketball or baseball season and scores but you cannot say where this country will be in 2 or 4 years. I started this thread to get a discussion going that could span to the next election and to have a track record of who was right and who was wrong. simple as that and if you cannot see it, your a fool.

    Also, its funny you say a business will close because someone could not turn a profit. You really have no idea about the business world...but as your post have been the last 6 months...you where blinders 24/7.

    Like I said. Not looking for a discussion. Simply a gloating machine for next season.

    Also, its funny you say a business will close because someone could not turn a profit. You really have no idea about the business world...but as your post have been the last 6 months...you where blinders 24/7.
    Dont you worry about my knowledge of business. I run a pretty profitable one. Hit me up, I might even be able to help you out.

    if youre confident in your choice of president, then all of the gloating will be done by you.

    I think you're scared to post a number because it will remove your option to remain in denial next time around.

    This wont be stickied by me but i will play your game.

    2014: Already calling for large GOP gains in the House and take Senate. Obama wont be on the ticket and several reps and senators that won on his coat tails in '08 and '12 will not be able to stand on their own.

    2016:
    U6 will be up considerably from where it is now, around 18%. 20% wouldnt be a surprise.
    labor participation rate will be around 58% mainly because of baby boomers leaving the work force by the millions.
    Obamacare will be in full effect. Private insurers are going to start failing as rate increases make them uncompetitive. Health care spending rising at the fastest rate on record.
    Gas will be about $5.00 gal nationally, but a weak economy could keep it down.
    More than 60% of all households will receive some type of govt check. More than 55% of households have a negative tax burden.
