Middle Class brainwashed into voting Republican

[The T]

Dear America, Why Are We Voting Against Our Own Self Interests?

I don't get it. Most people loath the super rich, and yet they sit around glued to FOX and vote to keep giving them tax breaks and favors. All the while, the buy the same old line of "they are the ones creating jobs" from the GOP. Guess what....THEY ARE SITTING ON THEIR TRILLIANS NOT CREATING JOBS.

Why do idiots think voting for ever bigger government is in their interest.

Oh yeah, because they're idiots!

That, or lazy member of the moocher class that have chosen to cower towrd gubmint because they found out that life is unfair and refuse to work as the rest of us do.

You know why I vote Rep. Because they are the ones who support our military interest and Reagan gave us the biggest pay raise 10 percent and that was at the time most military were below the poverty rate. I think its shameful how low the military personal are paid especially what they are called to do. The DemocRATs no matter who is in office cut the military to the bones. I dont mean the wars. I mean the personal and its not fair. So no matter what RAT that is in office I will not vote for them. Every president should support the military but the RATS like to use them but not give them pay raises, it always seems the shut downs are when the RATS are in office even though they blame the REP , its a RAT president and threaten not to pay the personal even though they are fighting for the country .. Like they have NOTHING To worry about at home , Now they have to worry if their family will have a roof over their head. Its shameful!!!

The military only has what it has because Democrats fight for them. Republicans fight for corporations and billionaires. See how that works. Republicans believe corporations are people. How do we know? Easy, they told us.

Do a little research. Try, "Republicans cut veteran's benefits". Put that phrase in Google and hit enter.

Cant say I'm shocked progressives are shocked that the middle class are capitalists...

I suppose we take property rights seriously unlike progressives... We give a shit about the constitution and progressives don't....

Progressives would sell their soul to the devil for a few free bucks....

Just as long as you get a free hot dog you're happy and when the hot dog is gone you want a free hamburger for dinner and your only justification is that some non-socialist has a pocket full of money...

It's absolutely disgusting...

Progressives belong in zoos not the streets...

 

[Mr.Nick]

The funny part is that the non-rich progressives wouldn't give a dime to a charity nor to anyone else. When they have money it's THEIR money and they won't share or even give a loan without an illegal interest rate.

They're ******* assholes to every extent of the word.

They'll give 35k to go to an Obama dinner while they ***** about how the homeless don't have food...

These ******* apes take the cake for evil......

Yeah they care about the homeless allegedly but they're starving and their eating a 35k meal.... Wall these assholes now!!!

Then they have the audacity to even talk about the "middle class???" Many of which have resorted to foodbanks?

Save your "caring for humanity" because no one buys your ******* nonsense..

You narcissistic pukes only care for yourselves and HATE anything you deem that impedes your quest for the easiest life possible.

It's just nasty....

Indeed. They talk a big game with other people's money...especially when THEY are on the receiving end.

I don't need to depend on the Federal Government to be successful or to provide me with a job, I just need them to get out of the way and allow me to be successful or "learn" (remember that word?) from my own mistakes. I do not need a Big Government to do anything FOR me, something the progessives don't understand. This idea of "dependency", that I simply can not make it on my own, I don't understand coming from the left. I'm not looking for a silver spoon, I'm not acting like a jealous teenage rich kid, looking to someone else (the rich) to provide for my own way of life. What ever happened to hard work, education, self discipline, and simply applying yourself?

Instead we have individuals that believe in entitlements: "that I simply deserve to receive what you have (handed to them on a silver platter) without doing any of the work that it requires to get there". Have we truely become "enslaved" to whatever the Federal Government can provide FOR US, or do we have the courage to make it on our own two feet and to have the integrity and character of acomplishing something for ourselves? Perhaps responsibility, accountability, self discipline, and good old fashioned hard work is the legacy we forget to demonstrate to the kids of this present generation?

The Government's Prayer

Our Government in D.C.,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy nanny state come
Thy mandate be done
On flyover country as it is in the coasts.
Give us this month our monthly check,
And audit us our trespasses,
As we file suit against those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into liberty,
But deliver us from ourselves.
For thine is the oligarchy,
And the power, and the glory,
Forever and ever.
Amen.

Why does that not surprise me...it's a logical extension of the liberal philosophy...and you can't get much more liberal than San Fran in the United States.

Not to mention California has the highest debt of any state in the United States. California representative Nancy Pelosi became Speaker of the House, and you wonder why Congress has followed suit and has fallen so far into debt as to effectively lose our nation's AAA rating for the first time in its history.

California had better NOT come begging for a bailout. My vote will be a resounding NO as it would for any fiscally irresponsible State in this Union.

They voted themselves into thier collective messes, they can figure their way out like some States already have.

I don't believe in "too big to fail", whether it's a business or a state.

Spot on. The bailouts should have never happened...and that means TARP, and Porkulus. They should have lawfully filed for bankruptcy.

We should pay close attention to Greece.

Indeed. And interesting that Germany is calling the shots on this?

Now all you have to do is replace Greece with the US and China for Germany.

Yup. That's why bankruptcy laws are there -- so operations can continue.

OOPS!!!

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- The Greek cabinet announced late Sunday that it adopted a draft budget for 2012, but the debt-ridden nation will miss key deficit targets for this year and next.

According to this preliminary budget, Greece's budget deficit will be 18.69 billion euros, or 8.5% of gross domestic product, in 2011. Greece had originally agreed to a deficit of 17.1 billion euros, or 7.8% of GDP, with the International Monetary Fund, European Commission and the European Central Bank.

Greece budget deficits miss bailout targets - Oct. 2, 2011

This is going to bite us bad.

"Can you tell me why the slummiest of big cities continue to vote democrat, even though they're the ones that created the slums in the first place and do nothing but try to keep people in those slums?"

Bcause that's where the minority ghettos are, the minorities who know who the racists are...

Then why do they keep re-electing the same dumbass democrats that aren't making the "ghettos" any better?

Or move out of the ghettos only to elect the same dumbass Democrats there and ruin that neighborhood as well. I will never figure that one out.

Because they buy the vote of ghetto fools from projects and that continually puts them over the top. It gives them the extra point or two they need to win.

Chicago is a good example of that. Outside Crook County nearly every county is Republican yet democrats control the state because they control Chicago/Crook county.

If states had electoral colleges by county democrats would lose severely in every election..

Uh huh, sure. You ever read past that though or do titles suffice in your world where you believe everything you need to know is in the title? You probably do because liberals favor all sorts of bills based on NOTHING but their title that are totally useless and a waste of money too.

When the left insists Republicans have "cut" something -what they really mean by it is Republicans have reduced the rate of planned INCREASE. Get a real life and stop acting like such a TOOL! Veteran's benefits have not been cut -and will not be cut. How much their next budget will be increased was reduced -but still INCREASED. The proposed cuts do NOT involve reduction of any payments to veterans for subsistence payments -money they need to just LIVE because THAT has actually been INCREASED and went into effect two days ago. Just in case you missed that. The proposed cuts have to do with changing the health care policy for those vets who served only a few years AND have no disabilities or injuries related to their service. Or do you think serving two years without incident and without being deployed during wartime should entitle someone to a lifetime of free health care? If so, add that to the list of entitlement programs this country cannot pay for and will within just a few years have to totally end with no one getting anything from them again -unless we make some serious decisions about how to reform them SO THEY CAN CONTINUE. Did you pay any attention to how they decided to do it in Greece? They didn't make any reforms to try and save their LENGTHY list of entitlement programs they couldn't pay for either -and just continued spending until the money was all gone. Broke and entitlements just ENDED for everyone. Regardless of whether a person actually needed it to survive or not. Think THAT is a better idea than trying to make sure it stays in existence for the vets who are disabled and unable to provide themselves at all? People like you are actually useless for coming up with solutions to very real problems that are rapidly growing worse! Instead you just stick your head in the sand and throw temper tantrums, convinced that bitching alone will suddenly produce the money no one will have for the next three generations. You could tax every dime from every rich person in the country and it wouldn't be a drop in the bucket to the money this country OWES.

And I LOVE the whining from liberals insisting corporations don't pay enough in taxes. The US has THE highest corporate tax rate IN THE WORLD -making doing business ANYWHERE and taking those jobs ANYWHERE but the US very attractive. Other countries have not made that mistake -and THEIR people got the corporations, the taxes and the jobs instead. So naturally dumb shit liberals think jacking up those rates again can't POSSIBLY have a negative effect on the economy, can't possibly end up harming those on the bottom the most. No matter how often it has proven to do just that.

If you spend $2000 a year renting brain-frying video games and decide next year you will spend $4000 instead -that is a PROPOSED increase to your video game budget. It isn't a REAL one yet -but one you are planning on doing. It hasn't happened yet because it isn't next year and you are still operating on your current budget. But after finding out you didn't get the raise you were expecting, you decide you are going to reduce that proposed increase for next year and "only" spend $3000 next year renting video games instead. Tell me you aren't REALLY stupid enough to believe you actually cut your video game renting budget when you really increased it by 50%. THAT is exactly what happened with the veteran's budget. It was INCREASED -just not as much as they originally planned. Now the bad news is -Democrats like to pretend that is a cut. But if that is a "cut" in your world, then you really aren't wrapped tight enough. Politicians do it to try and manipulate the opinions of morons like you but they know it isn't a cut -but they have no problem if YOU think it is. NO problem if you want to look like a dufus squealing how Republicans cut veterans' benefits when in reality they were increased another 7% including a subsistance rate increase effective two days ago.



Maybe you missed it but there is no more money -Congress went on an out of control spending spree with money no one has or will ever have. Our credit rating was reduced for the first time because of it. If nothing is changed, the financial collapse of our system is just a few years down the road. Like Greece which has had to totally end all sorts of government entitlements because they have NO MONEY. ALL government departments SHOULD have an across the board 10% REAL cut -not a proposed reduction in an INCREASE but a real cut where they end up with less money. So our government can remain financially solvent. So people can continue receiving vital government services. So the US doesn't end up like Greece where they are just suddenly stopped and liberal babies start burning and destroying property because they are so ******* stupid as to believe that creates more money in government coffers. In addition some government agencies should have their budgets cut even MORE and on top of that some agencies/departments should be abolished entirely. But like the politicians in Greece, no one has the CHARACTER to tell people the truth, no one is willing to put the nation's best interests before that of their own political future and no one is willing to step up to the plate and make the hard decisions -before the only decision left is the abrupt end to necessary services entirely.

Finally -I had to hold back my laughter to write the above and before getting to this part. In your delusional world it is DEMOCRATS who support the military and Republicans who do not? For real you actually BELIEVE this one? Really? I mean for REAL really? ROFLMAO! Come on, you seriously can't be that stupid. Surely not. But rather than go into a big long discussion about what a completely asinine and STUPID statement that was -let's just consider the most convincing evidence your head is up your own ass on this one. If Democrats were actually the ones who support the military and Republicans are the ones who use 'em up and spit 'em type thing -then why on earth would those IN the military be SUCH consistent and reliable Republican voters? Any clues on that one? LOL

My son is getting ready to deploy for his 8th tour in Afghanistan, my brother just retired as a Colonel from the Army after serving two tours in Iraq in addition to his decades of service going back to Vietnam when he SOOO enjoyed all that Democrat "support". The idea that Democrats are the ones who support them is laughable. You have no clue what military support even is.

I believe the US has the secpnd highest corporate tax rate behind Japan. However that is deceptive because of the many loopholes in the tax code that allow corporations to pay a much lower tax rate. What makes other counties more attractive for a corporation is the much lower wages for workers in those other countries as well as none of those nasty regulations, some of which include worker safety and workers' compensation insurance.

 

[saveliberty]

Many other countries will refund corporate taxes paid on exported goods Barry1960. That makes for competitive advantages to other nations.
