Republicans always defending the right of the poor to remain poor.
Seems to me the rational posters are trying to save the entry level and supplementary jobs you Dems are hell bent on eliminating.
The irony in the morons statement is so thick. You have to wonder what those left wing news sources are reporting.
He has no clue that the democrats NEED the poor to remain poor. What they need is more poor people.
He has no idea that the poor class has greatly expanded (deliberately) under Obama.
The gap in employment rates between America's highest- and lowest-income families has stretched to its widest levels since officials began tracking the data a decade ago, according to an analysis of government data conducted for The Associated Press.
Rates of unemployment for the lowest-income families — those earning less than $20,000 — have topped 21 percent, nearly matching the rate for all workers during the 1930s Great Depression.
U.S. households with income of more than $150,000 a year have an unemployment rate of 3.2 percent, a level traditionally defined as full employment. At the same time, middle-income workers are increasingly pushed into lower-wage jobs. Many of them in turn are displacing lower-skilled, low-income workers, who become unemployed or are forced to work fewer hours, the analysis shows.
"This was no 'equal opportunity' recession or an 'equal opportunity' recovery," said Andrew Sum, director of the Center for Labor Market Studies at Northeastern University. "One part of America is in depression, while another part is in full employment."
Welcome to Forbes
Here's a micro example of the big picture when it comes to the rich and redistribution of wealth. Taxachusetts (Massachusetts) is one of the most highly taxed states in the nation, if not thee most highly taxed. But, as with most liberally run states, they needed more revenue. So what did their liberal government do? It imposed a tax on yachts to try and get some more money from "the rich". Now, you'd think that "rich" liberals would have been happy to help out and pay the tax. But John Kerry, who served in Vietnam and is EXTREMELY rich, took his yacht and docked it in neighboring Rhode Island to avoid the tax from Massachusetts. So he suffered not one little bit, nor did he help contribute to the revenue for his home state of Massachusetts. That's how it goes folks. I'm sure there were people who didn't have the opportunity to move their yachts to neighboring states who had to pay the taxes. The point is, many of the rich have the ways and means to avoid taxes which are targeted at them.
Not to mention at least a 70% rise in food stamp recipients. Those of us who understand (conservatives) we know that is about making sure they solidify their voting base, which is the poor class. Make more and more of them totally dependent on government, the more automatic votes they get.
Liberals are a ******* joke. This administration is deliberately tearing the country down, as it has been this contrived president's goal.
