  Facebook has a viable business model. Sure, it may eventually go the way of a dodo bird like Kodak, but it's stupid to argue that advertisers haven't benefited from Facebook. Advertising is a numbers game of getting people expose to the message, if enough people see it eventually you'll have an increase in your average business.

  That is after all how barbie became popular in America. For the record, I have advertised on Facebook and Google. If you are reading this...join my peition.

  Thank you sbourg!

  Justme, Krugman sounds like Biden with his zany philospy of, "We have to go spend money to keep not from going bankrupt." Now, I appreciate Krugman as a comedian, but not as economist. The last time Krugman was funny was when he wrote about the 'Theory of Relativity' impact on compound interest.

  Keynesian theory died with the Obama's and Bush's administration. Obama, is amazingly, a much more worst president than Bush.

  Social Security and Medicare are unsustainable at the current rate. Republicans and some Democrats are good enough with math to know that some serious reform needs to be done, otherwise we pay for the deficits through hyper-inflation in the long run.

  I would propose the government just runs Social Secuirty and cut Medicare, and give money to the poor elderly and disabled.

  Ron Paul has said he would cut the military budget and focus on making Social Security sustainable. I personally, prefer privatization because I am not going to be collecting my Social Security since I am working overseas.
