Ed that is just plain ignorance. Try looking at facts sometimes. And the truth really is that it doesn't matter today who is to blame, but who is going to stand up and fix it.
I doubt that will be Obama and Reid.
but he doesn't want to fix the problems. If he did, he would be. It's easier to blame others than to do our part to fix what's wrong with our lives and the world around us.
Now that, of course, is a crock of shit! I have offered solutions many times. My solutions are different from anything offered by either Party. And if you were honest, you can't give a single example where I supported an Obama policy. You have been programmed to accuse anyone who doesn't support the corporate crap the CON$ spew as being an Obama supporter.
For example, when the talk was whether to make the Bush tax cuts permanent or let them expire, I said REPLACE them DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR with cuts in the job killing payroll taxes!!!!! Neither Party offered that. The closest was Obama suspending a part of the payroll tax temporarily, but that was hardly what I called for.
My tax substitution plan would give the American wage earner an immediate increase in take home pay to spend on a regular basis without costing the employer a single penny thus
stimulating demand, and the businesses that employ Americans would have
an immediate cut in the cost of labor without downsizing or outsourcing a single American job as well as saving the cost of compliance.
The businesses that employ the most AMERICANS will get the most benefit from the tax cuts, exactly the group of people you would want to benefit most from tax cuts.
Tycoons who increased profits by outsourcing American jobs for cheaper foreign labor,
were rewarded by Bush with a tax cut on top of the profit gained at the expense of American jobs. I say their increased profit is reward enough, they don't deserve a tax cut on profit earned at the expense of the American worker.
My tax cuts reward people who work and businesses that employ Americans instead.
So what I would do now to compromise between the Ryan plan and Obama's is to replace the tax cuts Obama wants to end with payroll tax cuts and substitute more payroll tax cuts for the cap gains, corporate and inheritance taxes Ryan wants to enact. Payroll tax cuts gives you the most employment bang for the buck!!!!!
