These Randiansneed to be stopped in November!!!
Yeah, how you libs plan to do that?
Like this??????
they dont belong to the democratic party do they.
That's your thoughtful retort?
That is about all that poster deserves, and you're getting there.
dittos to that
so blatantly lying doesnt botther you as long as you presume it benefits you politically. it hits a nerve thus boosts your ego for some perverse reason
Blatantly lying??? That means something very different to you. Blatant lying to you is something that is true but you don't like it. Nice try though.
Are you really dumb enough to believe we're going to let you get away with nonsense you spew?
One of your most infamous deeds is to make up shit as you go along.
The way anyone with a half a brain sees it as both parties are in it for control. For the money. There is a concerted effort to keep the average worker down. If the masses in this nation ever wake up what is happening with OWS will seem like childs play and I for one hope to witness it. After 75 years of living here I can say this is the first time this country truly disgusts me.
Their has not been a republican interested in government of the people by the people, for the people since Eisenhower.
The attack dog GOP has their nose so far up corporate ass they cannot see when the sun shines.
Why the GOP is so into protecting billionaires one can only guess. Why does a billionaire hate those who make $40,000 a year? Answer? To get the wages down to $30,000. What a sick, ill, anti christian bunch of people. How dare some worker make $40,000. They arent worth that. america has the most ill conceived business owners in the world.
"The average worker in the US is wealthy compared to about 95-98% of the other nations on earth. We need to be grateful we have it so good; and many other nations laugh at our spirited campaigns for national office. Neither candidate proposes a fundamental change in our underlying economic system. "
You are correct. The ultra wealthy are laughing all the way to the bank. ANY business owner who believes in cheaper labor to make his product should be forced to leave the country. Of course if you are for a living wage you are a socialist. What a joke this country is.

Then move the fuck out, asshole.
Living wage. You morons refuse to define what a living wage is.
You can't.
All you know is that someone has more or earns more than what fits inside your comfort zone. So instead of figuring out ways to assist people to improve their skills so they can earn more, you seek to tear down those in higher tax brackets.
You people invent things such as living wage in order to have something to complain about. That is your contribution. Complaining.
The GOPs war on Americans has been going on for some time, but it started in earnest in January 2011 when Republicans assumed control of the House of Representatives and several state legislatures. First it must be emphasized that in recent memory there are no instances of Republicans passing any legislation that helps the American people, but they have worked tirelessly to help the wealthiest one percent. It is expected that during a normal campaign season, candidates and political parties would promote their agendas by stressing what they will do for the people, but Republicans have abandoned any pretext of helping Americans and are blatantly campaigning on enriching the wealthy and corporations.
Shortly after taking their oath of office, Republicans immediately singled out women for their initial assault, and then set out to increase hunger and poverty with vicious spending cuts affecting the poor, children, and elderly Americans. They used the deficit, budget, and religion to garner support for their assaults and have been unrelenting in pushing austerity measures on the 99%, and they found willing advocates among racists, teabaggers, and religious fanatics. The tragedy the GOPs supporters will never comprehend until it is too late is that they will suffer as much as the poor people, minorities, and women they hate.
In both versions of Paul Ryans Path to Prosperity budget, the level of cuts to social safety nets is only matched in severity by the plan to privatize Medicare that not only decimates the elderly, but restricts uninsured Americans from receiving health care.
Republican Traitors Declare War on the American People
Great article!!! Hope you all will check it out.
War?
Really?
Hard to believe, considering the vast majority of neo-Republican politicians don't like war. I mean, they don't mind send your and my children off to die thousands of miles away in a foreign war, they just don't want to have to fight one personally.
Actually the truth here is that all Republicans hate war, especially those of us who have been there. Have you checked the status of the military lately? You will be surprised...

"living wage?" What the hell is a "living wage" and who decides what is a "living wage?"
Yeah, why would we call it socialism, when we have people who think they can decide what is a "living wage" and ignore the realities of the market?????

Ignorance is not an excuse. Ironic, you mention 'realities of the market'. The Godfather of realities of the market is Adam Smith...
In his Wealth of Nations, Adam Smith recognized that rising real wages lead to the "improvement in the circumstances of the lower ranks of people" and are therefore an advantage to society. Growth and a system of liberty were the means by which the laboring poor were able to secure high wages and an acceptable standard of living. Rising real wages are secured by growth through increasing productivity against stable price levels, i.e. prices not affected by inflation. A system of liberty, secured through political institutions whereupon even the "lower ranks of people" could to secure the opportunity for higher wages and an acceptable standard of living.
"Servants, labourers and workmen of different kinds, make up the far greater part of every great political society. But what improves the circumstances of the greater part can never be regarded as an inconvenience to the whole. No society can surely be flourishing and happy, of which the far greater part of the members are poor and miserable. It is but equity, besides, that they who feed, clothe and lodge the whole body of the people, should have such a share of the produce of their own labour as to be themselves tolerably well fed, cloathed and lodged."
Smith WN, I .viii.36
Smith advocated that labor should receive an equitable share of what labor produces; According to Smith, this equitable share amounts to more than subsistence. Smith equated the interests of labor and the interests of land with overarching societal interests. He reasoned that as wages and rents rise, as a result of higher productivity, societal growth will occur thus increasing the quality of life for the greater part of its members.

I wholeheartedly agree...
we should grab the obscenely wealthy, skin 'em alive in public, disembowel 'em, and hang their dead pasty white asses in the nearest public square...
and, since it won't come near to paying off the federal deficit, take their money for a giant feel-good keg party...

The key is not "rising wages". That's inflationary and at the end of the day helps no one. Because if wages rise so do prices. The net result is a wash.
Not rising wages. It's called increasing one's skills to increase their value to an employer which in turn will allow that more skilled worker to EARN more.
There is no magic wage increase fairy. I wish you lefties would get this through your heads...That the money has to come from somewhere. And no employer has this mysterious pot of money on which he or she sits. So stow it.

Adam Smith was a 'collectivist and union flag waver'... WOW, you truly are an idiot.
You have gleaned what feeds your dogma and doctrinaire and ignored the KEY of what Smith said.
Smith advocated that labor should receive an equitable share of what labor produces.
And as usual, the marketist morons are blinded by the urge to serve your beloved opulent and dismiss the working man.
IF company A could raise the prices on their company A widgets, they would do it TODAY. What stops them from raising their prices TODAY Einstein???
