We know what it would be like with them kind in control with a majority....

"We know what it would be like with them kind in control with a majority..."

Sure do......end of slavery,

Good enough?

Has your party done anything helpful within the last 95 years?

Helpful to whom?

1. The benefits from Reaganomics:
   1. The economy grew at a 3.4% average rate…compared with 2.9% for the previous eight years, and 2.7% for the next eight.(Table B-4)
   2. Inflation rate dropped from 12.5% to 4.4%. (Table B-63)
   3. Unemployment fell to 5.5% from 7.1% (Table B-35)
   4. Prime interest rate fell by one-third.(Table B-73)
   5. The S & P 500 jumped 124% (Table B-95) http://www.gpoaccess.gov/eop/tables10.html
   6. Charitable contributions rose 57% faster than inflation. Dinesh D’Souza, “Ronald Reagan: How an Ordinary May Became an Extraordinary Leader,” p. 116

b. and c. Kiva Lending Team: Team Ron Paul, Hulk Hogan, Jesus of Nazareth, Chuck Norris, Ronald Reagan, John Wayne, Thomas Jefferson, Alex Jones, Peyton Manning, The Tuskegee Airmen, Schiff, REAL Americans, and George W. Bush | Kiva


Reagan provided healthcare for every single person in the US, documented or otherwise.

Don't forget the answer to welfare....the EITC.


But you don't know any of that,....do you, you dunce.

This is what the Reagan era gave us in america, by design, a complete rerigging of the american economy which in turn left the political systemn answering only to concentrated wealth and power. Note particularly the trickle down effect. The right's fetishization of Ronnie is fantasy, a graven image to a very undemocratic abd very unChrist like.

And then it became totally bipartisan.

That's false.


Benefits have become close to 30 % above salary.

Only in the fox bubble.

"Benefits.

Basic salary and employment taxes are a minimum- in most cases you will need to provide some benefits. Typical benefits for a $50,000 salaried employee include life insurance ($150) and health coverage ($2,000-$3,000 for single persons; $6,000-$7,2000 for families - Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality). Other benefits could include long-term disability insurance ($250), dental plans ($240-$650), dependent care assistance, tuition reimbursement, retirement plans etc. These involve actual payment of benefits by the employer. There are also "self funded" plans where the employer contribution is the administrative costs- e.g. 401(k) savings plans where a portion of the employee’s salary is withheld. Vacation is another cost but is subsumed in the basic salary.

The costs to this point (basic salary, employment taxes and benefits) are typically in the 1.25 to 1.4 times base salary range- e.g. the cost range for a $50,000/year employee might $62,500 to $70,000."

Osama won, it's fairly obvious. We have now become just as fucked up a society as those we caterwaul endlessly about. Sunni vs. Shia got nuttin' on (the) us.

Unfortunately, you're more on point than you may really think. Our division has been nursed and encouraged until we have become a dysfunctional pile. Ireland. Sunni/Shia. A hundred others. Because it is somehow no longer necessary to tolerate those with a different way or a different view.

Sadly, I know how on point that is, look at us, we can no longer govern ourselves, and it is promulgated by our own elites with our own participation.

I don't think it is our elites that have promulgated this, though--they're buying in, but I think it's actually darker than that. Imagine me a conspiracy theorist. Never thought it would happen.

 

[OldLady]

Why don't you name all the religions that have been maligned for political reasons? If nobody is unfairly attacking them, there is no need to defend them. Nobody supports the terrorists, yet you want to condemn an entire major religion over the actions of a very tiny percentage of them.

"It's not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations. Barack Obama."
Read more at: Barack Obama Quotes at BrainyQuote.com

He's right Thanks for the quote though. Didn't know what Mudwhistle was referring to.

"Thanks for the quote..."
Welcome.

Did you see any of Obama's quotes condemning the folks who 'cling' to these aspects of the religion he endorses and lies about?


Quran 4:89: "They (infidels) desire that you should disbelieve as they have disbelieved, so that you might be (all) alike; therefore take not from among them friends until they fly (their homes) in Allah's way; but if they turn back, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them, and take not from among them a friend or a helper."

Quran 8:12: "Instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers;"

Quran 2:191: "... kill the disbelievers wherever we find them

Quran 22:19-22: "… for them (the unbelievers) garments of fire shall be cut and there shall be poured over their heads boiling water whereby whatever is in their bowels and skin shall be dissolved and they will be punished with hooked iron rods."

Quran 8:12: "Your Lord inspired the angels with the message: 'I will terrorize the unbelievers. Therefore smite them on their necks and every joint and incapacitate them. Strike off their heads and cut off each of their fingers and toes.'"

Qur'an:8:12 "I shall terrorize the infidels. So wound their bodies and incapacitate them because they oppose Allah and His Apostle."

Quran 8:7: "Allah wished to confirm the truth by His words: 'Wipe the infidels out to the last.'"

Quran 8:59: "The infidels should not think that they can get away from us. Prepare against them whatever arms and weaponry you can muster so that you may terrorize them. They are your enemy and Allah's enemy."

Quran 8:60: "Prepare against them whatever arms and cavalry you can muster that you may strike terror in the enemies of Allah, and others besides them not known to you."

Quran 9.29" "Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection."

Quran 47:4: "Strike off the heads of the disbelievers" and, after making a "wide slaughter among them, carefully tie up the remaining captives."

Okay, now you've really lost me, dear. I didn't hear Obama citing any of these verses.

Now.....name all of the religions that Barack Hussein Obama has stood up for, shielded from criticism, defended and advanced.

Did hear him condemning any of those quotes?

As has already been pointed out, he doesn't have to! And he is not shielding a religion here, he is trying to minimize irrational hatred against peaceful people who practice the religion of Islam in this country.

By "elites" I merely mean just like it was at the founding. Only the affluent, the propertied "job creator" class gets representation. There indeed has been a vast wealth redistribution plot executed over the past 5-6 decades, just not in the direction everyone is always blathering on about. Too much concentration of wealth and power away from society at large into the hands of a privileged few never bodes well for any society. And no, it was no accident, it's a direct result of legislation and policy. Completely bipartisan I might add. But that's too scary for many to comprehend, so we stick to our memes and follow our regularly programmed imprinting. If the masses can be kept in a constant state of confusion, anxiety, fear, and anger, the societal wealth extraction paradigm can continue unabated.

Legislation and policy caused the polarization of the populace, as well as Congress? I'm not sure I know how that was done. Not to bug you, though. It's not your job to educate me, if you don't want to bother.

You can't see what has been left off the graph?

You must be a Liberal, huh?

Do you not understand the graph or what it shows us?

Do you understand what it leaves out.....

....and why?

Yup, he'd certainly never get by the Jesus test.

And what test was that, you moron?

You're a very conflicted angry person aren't you?

Stop projecting.

You're the one with all the anger and name calling.

1. I have naught but serapharic calm...

2. ...and what you call name-calling is accurately describing you.

Denial is a way of life for you.

Only in the fox bubble.

Proving you to be a dunce is the ol' fish in a barrel....

Benefits: nearing 40%....




"Benefits.

Basic salary and employment taxes are a minimum- in most cases you will need to provide some benefits. Typical benefits for a $50,000 salaried employee include life insurance ($150) and health coverage ($2,000-$3,000 for single persons; $6,000-$7,2000 for families - Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality). Other benefits could include long-term disability insurance ($250), dental plans ($240-$650), dependent care assistance, tuition reimbursement, retirement plans etc. These involve actual payment of benefits by the employer. There are also "self funded" plans where the employer contribution is the administrative costs- e.g. 401(k) savings plans where a portion of the employee’s salary is withheld. Vacation is another cost but is subsumed in the basic salary.

The costs to this point (basic salary, employment taxes and benefits) are typically in the 1.25 to 1.4 times base salary range- e.g. the cost range for a $50,000/year employee might $62,500 to $70,000."

All the wealth that was generated by the steady increases in the productivity of the amercican worker. Where did all that wealth go? Back into society? Of course not, by design.

Privatized gains versus socialized losses for the Wall Street bankster class
Internalized profit versus externalized risk and expense for the "job creator" class
Socialism for the aristocracy versus laissez faire capitalism for the masses

That's your system love, think about it. Your blind myopic partisanshit is a huge part of the problem.

Until the failure, Obama.....it went to workers, you dunce.

1. In actuality, the income of full time wage and salary workers increased between 1980 and 2004, and so did real income- either by 13% or 17%, depending on which price index is used in the calculation. Reynolds, “Income and Wealth,” p. 63.

a. If health and retirement benefits are included, as they should be, worker compensation rose by almost a third. And, even this is illusory, as it doesn’t include the “statistically invisible (not on taxes) returns inside IRA and 401(k) plans.” Reynolds, op. cit., p.64.

2. The broadest and most accurate measure of living standard is real per capita consumption. That measure soared by 74% from 1980 to 2004. U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA)

Update:

U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA)

a. A study of table 7.1 would show that between 1973 and 2004, it doubled. And between 1929 and 2004, real per capita consumption by American workers increased five fold. The fastest growth periods were 1983-1990 and 1992-2004, known as the Reagan boom.
