This will NOT save America it will destroy it

[Meister]

This country can't survive off the backs of the rich and middle class.

Or borrowing from other countries.

We take in 10 bucks and spend 90 bucks.

And if we tax the top 20% so that they fall back into the 20 80 rule we would be doing much better

Your solution is to keep spending, and tax more? Oh brother.....

That's always their answer.

Is a lack of maintenance causing Milwaukee to fall down? « The Daily Reporter


Hundreds of immediate public safety hazards were identified, totaling $5.5 million in repairs. The report suggests a large portion of particularly critical repairs be addressed within a year, but those structures deemed most vulnerable should be county officials’ first priority.

The report blames spending cutbacks and a disorganized building inspection system for the poor conditions of county buildings. But since 2003, Milwaukee County has invested $891.2 in capital projects that address these issues.

While that number seems steep, consider this: More than 62 percent of that money has come from the past two years, according to the report, with nearly half coming from 2010 alone.

Well then I guess the Fed should print another couple Trillion Dollars out of thin air to fix all our problems.

And of course there will be no negative effects from that at all, as long as the bridges are ok, we will be fine. Massive Debt be dammed.

I was in Milwaukee just last week...Ask any mod to confirm my IPs from then.

About half of the damn interstate mileage in the city is under construction or scheduled to be.

You're still a blithering idiot.

Simple fact.The top wage earners foot the bill for all taxpayers.That top 1-2 % pay up to 70%of the tax bill.Now the left don't think they pay enough.When IS enough enough?
When will the left be satisfied that Americans are taxed enough.

You know what would happen if the government got more tax revenue? They would spend it...Then they would go looking for more.

Why is it the left's answer to everything that ails this country is spend more....

The Stimulus was an absolute failure with almost $300,000.00 spent for every single job it created.And the left is tripping all over themselves rushing to praise our little community organizer we have as President about what a great job he is doing.$300k spent to create a single job.What a scam.

When you have under 20% of the population owning 80 % or more of the welath then you have a stalled market.


This is called the 20 80 rule and was determined by examining all of the worlds economic history.

 

[Oddball]

You only have 20% of the population willing to do what it takes to accumulate such wealth.

Your covetousness is really poorly veiled.

No know nothing of economics and you have no principles. It's always with the class warfare/envy stuff. You need new schtick.

If you want to see where the problem is take a look in the mirror. We elect them and we keep them in office, it doesn't make any difference what office. I bet the congressmen in WI don't need street or bridge repair in their neighborhood, I would be that the family payroll generated as a result of his or her office is well past 1mil per year and that doesn't count gov't awarded contracts to family and friends. Get it through your slow dimwitted heads, NO ONE is looking out for us, they just plain don't care and we keep electing them. It doesn't make a hoot whether they are a D or R.

If you took every penny the Top 10% make you would not even put a dent in the Deficit, and you would destroy the Economic Base thereby lowering Revenues.

 

[Truthmatters]

Not according to the 20 80 rule

 

[shintao]

Yeah, the stimulus was supposed to fix all the infrastructure issues. "Our decaying infrastructure" was one of the "urgent" reasons we needed to pass it NOW! It passed, what happened? Where's all the "shovel ready" jobs promised?

Scam-WOW!

Guess what? They ain't no moe money!

No shovel ready jobs? Scam? No Money? LMAO!!!!

Just like the poorly closeted collectivist totalitarian to reduce people to mere charts, graphs and formulas.

What you people need to face is your politicains will make short term decisions that are all about "keeping the taxes down" that end up costing the people harm as welll as MORE money in the end.


Your priorities are all wrong and this shows how and why.

TM, the Democrats make short term decisions to keep funding entitlement programs that are for the long term unsustainable.

How is one group any better than the other?
