Do They Serve Poisoned Seafood At Applebee’s?

“In a way, we actually do have fair trade with China: they sell us poisoned toys and tainted sea food and we sell them fraudulent securities.”

Paul Krugman, on Bill Maher’s Show Real Time with video and full text below

Full Exchange:

Maher: To me I think, from a layman’s point of view for the last 20-30 years, America doesn’t make anything. We used to manufacture stuff, cars and stuff. Arabs and Colombians drill oil, Indians make code for computers. China makes DVD’s – they make them out of pigshit and mercury – but they make something. Y’know what America makes? Debt. The Financial Services industry just makes debt, it’s really pushing money around on computers screens.

Krugman: Well, your right, and in way we actually do have fair trade with China. They sell us poisoned toys and tainted sea food and we sell them fraudulent securities.

John McCain Is Corrupt.

“John McCain’s campaign manager and Freddie Mac had what amounts to a secret half a million dollar lay-a-way plan. For almost three years and as late as last month, Freddie Mac made secret, monthly payments of $15,000 to Rick Davis’s firm for a no-show job, apparently in exchange for providing special access to a future McCain White House.” – David Donnelly, director of Campaign Money Watch.

John McCain Had To Give Lots Of Dome To Get In The Network
