But the fact is that if people no longer received assistance from the government the economy would be in shambles. Unemployment would skyrocket. GDP would plummet. Then where would we be? <br/><br/> The option is to stimulate growth now and pay for it later. It isn’t like the U.S. is going to stop producing goods, food, and other such products. After a “push” from stimulus then Americans will be back on their feet and GDP will rise. Along the way debts will be paid off. It has worked before, it will work now, and it will work again.”<br/><br/> - <em><h3> </h3><p><a href="http://video.adultswim.com/family-guy/who-else-but-quagmire.html"><strong>Who Else But Krugman!</strong></a></p></em>http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/16340497892http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/16340497892Mon, 23 Jan 2012 02:28:00 -0500Paul KrugmanFuck HeadZero HedgeCollapseAmerica2012Food StampsGovernment Assistance<iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/LRAXQKZ6RLc?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p><strong>Shit Customers Say… To Servers </strong></p> <p><strong>If I had to choose one, it would be</strong></p> <blockquote> <p><strong>Can I just have hot water, I brought my own tea bag</strong></p> </blockquote> <p><strong>Then go home and boil the water yourself, bitch.</strong></p>http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/16237880996http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/16237880996Sat, 21 Jan 2012 13:46:10 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ly5w1jpvYY1qz78lfo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><strong>The Photographer</strong></p> <p><strong>He’ll shoot you….in 10,000 different shutter times</strong></p>http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/16237768432http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/16237768432Sat, 21 Jan 2012 13:44:07 -0500photographercamerasexpensive<object width="400" height="279"><param name="movie" value="http://www.traileraddict.com/emd/51205" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed src="http://www.traileraddict.com/emd/51205" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="400" height="279"></embed></object><br/><br/><p><strong>Adrien Brody is…the teacher.</strong></p>http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/16081731093http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/16081731093Wed, 18 Jan 2012 17:53:57 -0500detachmentadrien brodyteachereducation<iframe width="400" height="299" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/kOR2f0EA8Co?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p><strong>Actors have always and will always fuck up lines.</strong></p> <p><strong>Still, it’s hilarious watching Bogart screw up on camera.</strong></p>http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/16054218869http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/16054218869Wed, 18 Jan 2012 02:28:07 -0500<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxxg698O2R1qz78lfo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><strong>Movies from an Alternate Universe </strong><br/><br/><strong> James Dean would wipe the floor with Gosling, no question.</strong></p>http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/15995177047http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/15995177047Tue, 17 Jan 2012 00:20:00 -0500MoviesFilmDrive2011Ryan GoslingJames DeanSpencer TracyInceptionReddit<iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/fUL0hcqZ0pk?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><blockquote> <p><strong>Maybe she’s born with it..</strong></p> <p><strong>Nah….I’m pretty sure it’s photoshop</strong></p> </blockquote> <p><strong>Fotoshop…by Adobe.</strong></p> <p><strong>Look thinner, gorgeous and perfect….forever</strong></p>http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/15830331161http://www.mattfriedlander.com/post/15830331161Sat, 14 Jan 2012 11:14:06 -0500fotoshopadobephotoshopparody<p id="paragraph13"><img height="394" src="http://www.petiquettedog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/No-kids-Allowed-from-Picnik1.jpg" width="394"/></p> <p><strong>1.
