Majority of working class and rich agree: people collecting welfare and public pensions should do our house work or yard work.
yawn.
Still pretending that 30 year post WW2 boom wasn't an anomaly, never to be repeated unless the industries of everyone else in the world get bombed out but us?
LOL
Granddaddy's machine tool job - where he slept half of his shift and scolded the new hires for producing too much and making them look bad - is gone forever.
That's a rich man's lie. I was there and saw what happened and you people can either shut up and quit trying to completely destroy every facet of America except your own or next time the ass kicking will be worse...regardless of what Fox News is telecasting from that bubble they live in. Let's see....Dick Morris declared that Romney would win by a landslide and Karl Rove said Romney would get 335 electoral votes. GAWD what wisdom......unmatched in the annals of modern man.
Says the man who has his already, retired, lives a 5000 sq foot house, etc etc
he can sit back and bitch about how others, Republicans, News stations, blaa blaa blaaa are so UNFAIR..
then comes on here and LECTURES OTHERS.....how friggen RICH
Capital gains, dividends, and income should be taxed equally.

Whereas I believed otherwise for a while, I have to admit, I agree.
To tax income you DONT really earn at a lower rate than the income you bust your butt to earn, just seems a little warped.
Sure, some will "jump the investment ship" at the beginning...but in a short period of time, all will be right back into it.

In your abandonment of the Conservative Party to rejoin the Republicans, I'm guessing that a new campaign slogan such as "Social Security - You earned it, now clean Mitt Romney's lawn," probably won't be a winning formula.
Your question has been answered many times clearly to your discomfort. Tough that, buddy.

It's been asked many times, you got that part right.
The answering part seems to not be your strong suit
Are you foolish?
Tax rates are almost as low as they were under Reagan and his "Trickle Down"...which never worked. If the Republican party doesn't go out of their way to reclaim some ordinary voters they are history:
Never worked huh I guess that explains that big economic boom we had in the 80's.
Economic boom? Reagan emptied the state mental hospitals and welfare facilities onto the streets and the homeless reached record numbers. He and GHW Bush quadrupled the national debt and in Jan. 1993 left a higher unemployment number than Jimmy Carter left when he finished. The fact is that Reagan was the first president to cut taxes to record low levels, not cut spending a dime and ruin the labor unions when he fired PATCO.
You want economic boom? One place to look. Bill Clinton raised taxes on the wealthy, generated 22 million new jobs, balanced the annual budget and actually generated $400 billion of surplus. He had straightened out the Reagan/Bush41 mess and had the entire debt on schedule to be paid off by now. Then along came George.

Then along came the dotcom bubble that busted and the economy was heading for the shitter when Bush took office. Look it up if you don't believe me.

Right on top of it aren't you......NOT!
UNEMPLOYMENT %
2001.............4.7
2008.............5.8 *
* George Bush left office with the economy bleeding nearly 800,000 jobs a month. He, Bernanke and Paulson had just handed the richest banks in the world about $800 billion with no specification about how it had to be used.
God Damn.......I sure would hate to be a Republican(T Party)
65% want others to pay for what they want??
