Tea partiers not smart enough...

[wihosa]

Cecile
Do you think it fair that Warren Buffet pays a lower tax rate than his secratary?

Well Cecile,
You are good at spewing invectives, but you haven't explained why it is that since we have been living under the RepubliCONS agenda for thirty years it is not the RepubliCONs fault that all our good manufacturing jobs have gone over seas and the middle class hasn't had an increase in buying power and why RepubliCON presidents totalled over ten trillion dollars borrowed!

Yeah... no shit... this cherry is a total fucking kook...

I think it would fair if you proved it.

You should pay a little more attention. We are not spending to cut the debt, we are spemding to keep the economy from grinding to a halt. I understand that the RepubliCONs want the economy to come to a stop so they can convince you it's because of that socialist, communmist, statis, nazi, lefty, pinko, President Obama.

Like I said, the Tea Partiers are just not smart enough to know they are working against their own self interest.

He's to busy tongue punching Olbermann in the fart box to bother.

Pale Rider,
I'm just telling you what Warren Buffet said!

 

[boedicca]

A Multiple Billionaire who couldn't possible spend all his money in several lifetimes and whose wealth is mostly shielded from taxes in trusts is not representative of the middle class people making more than $200K in major metro areas who will be saddled with the tax increase.

The fact that you think Buffett is proper Spokes Model for the middle class shows how inane and economically illiterate you are.

Half our economy or more is controlled by government, there are thousands of regulations;from how big a hole in Swiss Cheese can be on up; yet capitalism always seems to get blamed for our problems, why is that and government seems to get a pass?

Government gets a pass? Missed that, when did that happen?
It seemed petty to complain when my tax dollars were being spent on a war of choice in Iraq when thousands of young Americans were paying for that fiasco with their lives, limbs and vision.
It would have been good if the government had passed a war tax, if we really needed to invade and occupy Iraq for eight years don't you think those who stood to gain the most should give the most? And those who gave the most, their lives, limbs and vision ought to get the most in terms of health care and a living wage, college guaranteed to the kids some left behind, a secure income to widows.
But hell, it's their money! Isn't that what capitalism is all about - making more, more and more?

Pale Rider,
I'm just telling you what Warren Buffet said!

Listen up cherry, no matter how you cut it, as an individual, or as the government, you can NOT, I repeat NOT, SPEND YOUR WAY OUT OF DEBT. Now I don't know what kind of fucking indoctrination camp you've been in, but who ever told you different is a damn LUNATIC!

And if you claim Warren Buffet says he pays less taxes than his secretary, link to it, prove it.

 

[wihosa]

boedicca,
How can you get my meaning so ass backwards? Oh I know, you're trying to!

If Warren Buffet admits that he pays a lower tax rate than his secratary you don't want to know? People who make all their money by collecting interest and dividends deserve a lower tax rate?

So you're going to bat for all those poor "middle class" people who are making over 200K?

Boy if that's the middle class I am definetly not middle class any more.

 

[wihosa]

Pale Rider,
I'm sure you are smart enough to grasp this idea, If no one else is spending money and the economy is grinding to a halt then the only entity that can keep spending is the government. It is necessary for the gov. to spend to prefent the economy from completely crashing, which is exactly what was done.

We did not borrow money to get out of debt.

Think about it before answering.

 

[boedicca]

In major metro areas where houses still cost $600K plus, $200K for a single earner and $250K for a dual income couple is middle class. Those are the people who will bear the brunt of the the Obama Tax increase as they are not in a position to shield income in complicated trusts and offshore.

Buffett is pandering to his DC Cronies with his nonsense.

 

[wihosa]

So you think that it's fair for Warren Buffet's secretary to pay a higher tax rate?

So you think that some one with an income of a quarter million dollars should be exempt from an increase of 4% even though that means that the typical wage earner with a $40,000 income will have to shoulder more of the tax burden in the long run.

 

[boedicca]

I don't think anything about our current tax system is fair.

Making it even more complex and raising taxes on anyone is not an improvement.

With all due respect, you're ignorant.

Boedicca

You can't say whether a person who is one of the wealthiest people in the world should pay a higher tax rate than his own secretary.

I rest my case, Tea Partiers are just not smart enough to know they are working against their own self interests.

 

[uscitizen]

Shoveling Trillions of $$$ to political cronies is not repair work.

Just sayin'.

Cheneys old company and big oil?

 

[asterism]

The RepublCONs have been shifting the tax burden onto the middle class for thirty years. Their foolish tax cuts on the wealthy and on corps. have led to the massive debt and of course since their taxes were cut it is the middle class who will pay it off.

 

[Toro]

Not smart enough to realize they are working against their own self interest.

The right wing agenda is pure capitalism. That's great for capitalists, bad for almost everyone else.

Oh, you say, you're a capitalist? Really, you make all of your money from interest and dividends? If you produce a service or goods for a fee, or for a salary or for hourly wages, then you are labor. It doesn't matter what color you collar is, you are labor. It doesn't matter if you don't see it that way, the capitalists do. Trust me, that is how they see you and they are determined to have you work for less.

So, go ahead and vote for the RepubliCONs, everything they have done for the last thirty years has worked out great, right?

So what if before Reagan's economic "theories" were tried we were the greatest producer of finished goods in the world and now we are the greatest importer of finished goods. So what if we were the greatest crediter nation and now we are the greatest debter nation.

Oh, this "conservative era" that Reagan brought in, it's been great for ordinary Americans. It just takes two incomes to raise a family now, and of course we can't afford to put our kids through school, we can't save for retirement, can't afford healthcare... Oh it's been great!

Go ahead tea partiers, vote for the RepubliCONs!

The tea party people are working in their own self-interest. They are smart enough to realize that.

The right wing agenda is not pure capitalism. It is more capitalist, but it is not pure capitalism anymore than the left wing agenda is pure communism.

And republicons have been so against bigger government, social programs and excessive govt spending?
They did however support TARP. Bailing out the fiiancial industry instead of letting it stand on it's own.

LMAO

I think most Republicans are unhappy with bailing out the financial system.

I also think that the Republicans at the top are unhappy with bailing out the financial system. But it was a Hobson's Choice. If they didn't, we would be in The Great Depression 2.0.

What upsets me today is that the Republicans offered little in real financial industry reform. The financial bill is far from perfect but the GOP fought it every step of the way so that the big banks wouldn't have to reform themselves.
