You cannot help the rich by Destroying the poor


Oh wait a minute....yes you can

Wealthy Americans benefited the most from the stimulus.....they always do

tell it to the 39K gov. workers laid off last month.....cuze you know, the stimulus money ran out..

Prediction... you could lay off three times as many and nobody would notice.

Police, firemen, teachers


Who the fuck needs them? They are a bunch of leaches anyway

The "poor" or the democrats want retribution - not a healthy socioeconomic environment.

They're poor so in their fucked up minds everyone should be poor.

If they fail, no one should succeed..

Thats why they're socialists, they're not smart enough nor good enough to survive in a competition based market. They don't want to work hard - they believe working just enough to get by should be enough to be rewarded with a rich mans wage which is why they want retribution against those who have more than them.

They're fucking children - they're no more emotionally mature than 5-year-olds, and that 5-year-old side comes out when you press the right buttons.

When you press the right buttons they turn into mini-Mao's, then they become truthful and honest instead of their deceptive selves.

So of course these asshats only hurt themselves by attempting to punish the rich. Its the rich that give them their remedial jobs.

There is an old saying "don't bite the hand that feeds you" well, the democrat motto is "bite the hand that feeds you."

These "poor" could be rich by now given the amount of energy they put into attacking the rich.... Its amazing...

These Marxist organizers could get college degrees what would make them rich given the amount of time and effort they put into their Marxist ideas.

But I suppose thats where intelligence becomes a factor in ones financial success. One man invests while the other man borrows, and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out which man will succeed. One will do without the nicer things in life for the first few years and the other will just dig his ass into debt for his entire life because he had to have the boat or the BMW before he could afford it.

You are the best example of a right-wing Kool-Aid drinker I've seen in this thread. This notion you have about the poor and the Democrats being motivated by envy of the rich is a clear case of projection of your own orientation.

I'm a Democrat and I have no cause to envy anyone. I'm not rich, nor do I need to be. I didn't study Business Administration because I couldn't think of a less interesting, less satisfying way to spend four years. And I'm quite content with the acacemic choices I did make.

My parents survived the Great Depression and I was influenced by their advice which was to take a civil service job and invest in nothing but U.S. Savings Bonds. Ultimately I helped to raise three fine girls and have since retired with no regrets. I fully own a comfortable condo in a gated retirement community, I fully own a nice car, I have no debts and I want for absolutely nothing. But I strongly support the movement to restore the pre-Bush tax rates on the upper income levels, not because I "hate" or "envy" the rich but because their greater financial success calls for a greater contribution to the Nation whose natural and human resources made their exceptional success possible.

And for your information Marx was a proponent of communism, not a capitalist system which is regulated by prudent socialistic controls, which was the system that facilitated our most prosperous and productive period. It is the system the left-wing, the "poor and Democrats" you refer to, wishes to restore and continue. And unless you are truly exceptional it is the system that enabled you to lead a comfortable middle class life -- along with eliminating the kind of abject poverty and misery that would otherwise exist in America.

While I fully expect you to contemptuously reject everything I've said here my reason for saying it is the possibility that it will give somone else something to think about. I have no illusions about your interpretation because you represent one of the right-wing propagandist's most prominent successes.

Obama did nothing more than pander to the labor unions and reward them handsomely with stimulus money...

The majority of the middle class is not unionized - we work non-union jobs and Obama has done absolutely nothing for us.

We're not his voting base. The middle class needed nothing from him, however he stole from us to reward his voting base.

Remember "I don't have to pay for gas anymore, rent or food."

The cream puff takes from the "middle class" and gives to the "poo" who believes now they have a free ride because they're (or a lot are)lazy fucks.

Wealthy Americans benefited the most from the stimulus.....they always do

Thats a blatant lie..

Keep on reading the liars in the paper.

They lie to you all day everyday.

They do so to champion their lies they write, that and their political ideologies.

How many people did Stalin murder??? I bet you will know Hitler but what about Stalin? Thats right you were never taught that.... Probably never thought about it either, and if you did you put little to no thought into it...

Why are they dead?

They're dead because authoritarian government took it - the government controlled state

Do yo normally have so much trouble sticking to one topic?

I know all about Stalin and the Japanese rape of Nanking. Do you want to discuss how the Soviets bore most of the burden in defeating Hitler?

Reducing the amount going into the stock market will increase the amount of bank business loans, and increase wages & benefits & hiring. Mainly because stocks are not in circulation and reduce the amount of available cash for investments available from banks. IMO

Not when the money is sucked up by taxation.

Wake me up when someone proposes destroying the rich. Until then, keep sounding like morons when you claim asking for an additional 3% of each dollar over $250,000 is going to cause the wealthy to commit mass suicide.

Facts aren’t the point: it’s heresy to the right, it can’t be tolerated regardless how reasonable.

 

[bripat9643]

Of course any taxation comes by force, regardless of how it is used, because we each have our ideas of what should be funded.

I favor people working for their benefits, if you are going to pay them minimum wage or better. There is a lot to do in this country.

A favor not using force to fund your pet projects.

I object to using force in human relations.

You believe that your it's perfectly OK to take money from people at gunpoint to implement your personal whims.

That's the difference between a statist and someone who believes in freedom.

Do you actually believe that some scumbag Democrat is going to admit he wants to destroy the rich?

We certainly don't need government firemen or government teachers.

In towns with private fire departments, fire protection is included in the cost of your homeowner's insurance.

Of course, the servile statist toady can't imagine any solution that doesn't involve government compulsion.

You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.

So you have to have homeowners insurance then? Kind of like a Government mandate.

You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.

You need to understand that the pre-Reaganomics tax level didn't "destroy" the rich back then and it certainly won't "destroy" them now. It will simply make them a little less rich. Millionaires will still be millionaires.

Your idea that adjusting the progressive tax rate will severely compromise anyone is based on right wing propaganda. The following list shows the tax rates that existed during the most prosperous and productive decades in our history, those between 1950 and 1980, when Reagan commenced the destruction of the middle class with a series of critical deregulations and tax reductions.

The income tax rate of upper income levels:

1950 - 91%

1980 - 70%

1985 - 50%

1987 - 38%

2004 - 35%

I think we should all pay the same amount of taxes. Whatever the poorest among us can afford to pay, is what we should all pay in taxes. That is true equality and fairness.

Well that should come after a generational audit of every family in the United States to determine exactly how they came into their wealth. Any criminal activity should immediately incur penalty...

Sound ludicrious? So does flat taxes.

And how many towns have "private fire departments"? Does yours?

Then crack open a history book. The largest losses suffered by Germany were on the Russian front.

The Eastern Front was the largest and bloodiest theatre of World War II. It is generally accepted as being the deadliest conflict in human history, with over 30 million killed as a result.[6] The German armed forces suffered 80% of its military deaths in the Eastern Front.[63] It involved more land combat than all other World War II theatres combined. The distinctly brutal nature of warfare on the Eastern Front was exemplified by an often willful disregard for human life by both sides. It was also reflected in the ideological premise for the war, which also saw a momentous clash between two directly opposed ideologies.

So it's not only the Constitution you are ignorant of..eh?
