Just in time for Christmas...............

What's really sad is that they think the tax cuts are a better idea than extending the benefits.

I guess that's what greed does to a person though.......

I think the key to the problem would be "how do we pay for it?" That has always been the question

Might try stop tax cuts for the rich, and plug the millions of tax loopholes they have, or just rake congress with an AK-47 about every 6 mos. until they get the message.
 
Have you thought about where the 55 billion that GM paid back has gone?
I doubt that the tax on the rich would go to the unemployed, ABS.

Not quite what I meant Meister. I said both add about the same amounts to the deficit.

And, I think it's criminal that people are in favor of the rich, while screwing over the poor.

If we're not careful, it's gonna be rich royalty and us peasants starving to death while working for less than fair wages.

Its already happening. Wages are stagent while the cost of living is increasing. We are heading for a Great Depression. The gap between the rich and the poor is an indication of how close we are to a depression. Its already at a gap that is at or more than the one in 1929. The wealth needs to be spread around alot more but not equal. More money people have, the more they spend, meaning healthier economy, more jobs and better lives.

Republicans are against a decent life.

Thanks for the rant there Karl.
 
BTW, don't you think it's just alittle bit disingenuous to schedule the unemployment benefits to expire before Christ but after the election? Shouldn't the mere fact that our politicians set up this whole issue specifically to get people emotional and not thinking rationally tell us that this legislation is a bad idea?

It is just not the capitalist way. 99 weeks of unemployment smacks of Socialism, and you do hate socialism and social programs don't you? Now tax cuts for the rich is capitalism, cutting taxes, cutting social programs, getting rid of socialists. That Individualism we have come to admire in rugged capitalists is inspiring when put into practice, don't you think?:eusa_angel:

If you don't grasp the triune nature of God, try asking God to explain it to you :thup:

you obviously dont have any grasp of it.....you cant even answer a very simple question without throwing a bunch of Biblical verses at me which can be interpted in any number of ways......you are doing the same stupid thing the Priest used to do.....
ME....Father who would GOD the most ultimate being in the Universe pray too?
Priest....well try reading John chapter 5 verse 10....
ME....um Father that could be interpreted 20 different ways by 20 different people.....WHO WOULD GOD PRAY TOO?....
Priest.....try reading Luke chapter....
ME.....father is there a higher life form up there that GOD would be praying too?....
Priest.....lets look at Psalms.....
ME ....thanks for the dance father,have a nice day.....in other words Jesus was not GOD but perhaps one sent by him (GOD) to do what he did....to distinct separate beings.....from the same realm....who have the same demeanor.....if you see Jesus,you are seeing the same type of being GOD is.....like it or not.....the Bible is the greatest story of extraterrestrial visitation this planet has ever seen....
 
I was watching the news today and found some rather disturbing figures. It seems that the unemployment benefits for many in this country are going to expire JUST BEFORE Christmas.

There's also talk about the tax cuts for the very rich being extended.

Interestingly enough, both cost roughly the same. Extending the tax cuts on the wealthy will add to the deficit roughly the same amount as extending the unemployment benefits.

Guess what by the way? Seems that the figures of the past 10 years revealed something interesting. Middle class and poor people have seen their incomes increase roughly 11 percent.

The people who make over 1 mil/year? They saw their incomes go up 273 percent.

Anyone else think that the "party of family values" has no heart?



Another let's attack those bastard Republicans for killing Christmas...

Let's see if I understand this correctly....The Democrats say that the money given to the unemployed gets more bang for the buck to get the economy back on track then the Bush tax cuts...Every dollar given to the unemployed gets two dollars spent back into the economy....

Well if that's true then why hasn't the economy gotten sent into warp speed because we have been carrying these people for 99 weeks now......that's almost 2 years....

How can anyone be critical of anyone when these people have been collecting for 99 weeks.....

I tell you there are plenty of people content with collecting these checks and will never look for work as long as these checks are coming in...:eusa_shhh:
