Re: Rand Paul: We Should Let Dems Raise Taxes And Then Let Them Own It
so what do we do
write our reps and tell them to vote "Present" on all financial votes so the dems will "own it"?

I just want to get back to normal, if thats even possible.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29266466
LOL! Pull an Obama & vote present... learn from the master..

What is normal? What we think is normal will never be again. We are to far out to turn back. The new normal needs to be defined and I believe we are currently in the stage of writing the definition.

yeah! the rich should pay lower tax rates than me! for fuck's sake they NEED that second home in Aspen and the beach house in Malibu! yay rich people! screw the midlle class, together we can destroy them once and for all!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27515407


^^^ this is a prime example of just how very stupid the people in this country are. this is why democraps win because the very gullible happen to be also very very envious of people who have more.

if democrats were really serious about taxing the rich to pay their fair share, then the first place to start would be tax on "wealth" and not just income. how about a 40% tax on warren buffet's wealth? now that would be a nice chuck of change wouldn't it?

then we could start with taxing federal "employees" whose combined employment package can very often be over 150,000 - 250,000 $.

and last but not least we need to tax EVERYONE in this country. 51% of the people are carrying the other half, if you want true fairness then every one should pay according to their ability. it is crap that some people pay nothing and yet they use all of the services and infrastructure as much as they rest of do.

get rid of the income tax and place a flat tax on everyone, no deductions, no loopholes, and no EXCEPTIONS.

In the past we have always rescued them from their personal stupidity.

No more rescues to anybody, any corporation, any union, any state/county/city or town!

Time to learn decisions/elections have consequences.
 Quoting: Lady Jane Smith


Absolutely. This is the problem with the Democrat/Republican dichotomy. Democrats can and will do anything to acquire and retain power, including destroying the lives of hundreds of millions of Americans. Republicans are constantly trying to rescue those same hundreds of millions of Americans.

Democrats are busy drilling holes in the bottom of the boat so everyone will call them "Captain", and Republicans never cease to run around with chewing gum patches, trying to plug the holes while never "attacking" the evil bastards with the drill.

Time to stop patching the holes. Time to shrug into a life raft and let the 'Rats go down with the ship.

 Quoting: Corn Dog


The tax on the rich, is not really a tax on the rich at all. Even if they raised the tax rate for all of those earning $200,000 ($250,000 for couple) a year, it will only pay for a total of four days of government spending.

The other problem that Obama is refusing to inform the public is that those making the higher tax bracket are the very ones creating jobs or trying to create jobs. Taking them more is only taking more jobs away. This in turn lowers tax revenue, because there are fewer people earning a living and requiring more government money that doesn't exist. This then requires more taxes on everyone, to continue paying for the jobs that Obama's taxes are losing.

I do remember the days when Republicans and Democrats existed. They still do.

Those that truly believe that it makes no difference are those that are so self centered, self rightous, so demented, that they actually believe themselves to be correct simply because it takes too much effort to actually think on their own instead of allowing others to think for them.

I have been on this earth sixty years, and I have seen a lot. But never have I seen such a piss poor collection of dim-wits and assholes as I do now. Everyone wants to point a finger at someone, but no one wants to look at why or whom they are pointing. It requires too much thinking and people today don't have time to think because they are too busy texting on their phones, catching up with each other on facefraud and twitterless, they have have forgotten how to have a life.

How about this for a change. Grow up and get a life!

Seems to me you are the one doing the finger pointing.

I instead of blaming others for any misfortune that comes to me, I look at the path that I took that brought the misfortune to me.

Simple example, my car got hit while parked, the person did not leave a note. Am I mad at them, nope, I parked it there (in a parking spot, with a meter, enough distance between the car behind me and the one in front), so in the end that is my fault.

You know how you and others or your ilk would have looked at it? Some welfare person, without a job, hit my car, probably didn't have insurance, nor a liscence, so the bum didn't leave a note.

Like I said, when you grow up, maybe you'll start to see things for what they are.

I've probably participated in significantly more political activities that yourself, on both sides of the table. I know people on both sides, have wrote stem cell research papers that have been used by multiple senators, have been invited to the RNC every presidental election since ninth grade. Have had tickets to multiple inagurations. In the end, I've seen first hand that it doesn't really matter, that the lobbyist are in control. So I don't begrudge either side. Instead I try to educate people to not to rely on government to fix their lives, take their life in their own hands, live within their means, and if possible, help those that want to help themselves.

Re: Rand Paul: We Should Let Dems Raise Taxes And Then Let Them Own It
Huge Mistake.




The Press will never let anything be Obama's Fault.


Ever. Have you all not been paying attention?

Republicans must give Obama what he wants if they want him to own it.

If taxes go up because the GOP fights, the press will turn it on them.

Obama can't lose unless you give him everything he wants and let the country crumble around him.


You must tow the line on this one.


Obama owns the Press, or did you not see Rachael Madcow and others at the whitehouse getting pats on the back for helping re-elect the president?

As for Rand Paul, I have no opinion on him. He is early in his career and so far people are not impressed is the general feeling feeling I get.
 Quoting: Corn Dog


The tax on the rich, is not really a tax on the rich at all. Even if they raised the tax rate for all of those earning $200,000 ($250,000 for couple) a year, it will only pay for a total of four days of government spending.

The other problem that Obama is refusing to inform the public is that those making the higher tax bracket are the very ones creating jobs or trying to create jobs. Taking them more is only taking more jobs away. This in turn lowers tax revenue, because there are fewer people earning a living and requiring more government money that doesn't exist. This then requires more taxes on everyone, to continue paying for the jobs that Obama's taxes are losing.

I realize that but 50%+ of America does not. They are not going to move on. They believe that the rich will accept higher taxes and everything will be sunny and okay after that. The rich are going to relocate and the hard working middle class will be burdened. I know that the revenue from increasing taxes on the rich is not going to solve shit but some can't get past that. BTW- I am not even clear on the definition of the middle class anymore. What is middle class? When was the last time it was defined?

*** my husband went for a job at UPS yesterday. They are not hiring full-time workers anymore. If tax increases pass then we will be seeing full time becomes part time and people will be working 2 plus jobs to survive. This then will become the new norm.
