HAHAHAHAH american taxes are teh lowest they've been in FOURTY YEARS!!


Yet you support a half trillion dollar Obama tax cut.

Is it just because he isn't white?


yep. because the middle class hasnt had a pay increase in 30 years

while the richest 1% have had their wages go up by 500%

want to know why we're in a depression?

read those numbers


When government gets bigger, people get smaller.


So, that's what happened to you.

ummm...if they're insignifican

why does ALL GOP policy focus on cutting their taxes?

if the amount is so small, why does the GOP refuse to cut taxes unless
they're rincluded??

They are idiots too.


We really needed Obama to veto the whole renewal bill

And the result would have been even more pain for people least able to
handle it.

Actually true. As Mr Rich might move the business elsewhere and the
people who need to work get unemployed.


great. THIS is the economy with the rich running it.

let 'em go and let the middle class reclaim america


I have never hidden why I left USA in 2004, it was economical to do so.
And I was right...


and you went to canada

socialized medicine

more bank regulations than the US

golly.


Hardly, I don't look forward to the day I have to use care up here.

As for banks, not my much. Mostly a monopoly. 5 key names, but all
agree on everything.


You're already using the mental health services, right? If not, you
should avail yourself forthwith.

while the ku klux clowns are blaming obama for bush's turning the

bush tax cuts


----------

and the right wing tells us how WONDERFUL this is...the rich are
getting richer...the middle class, worthless scum that they are, are
paying for it.

as god intended.

Do the math fleabagger. Oh wait, I forgot, fleabaggers are mentally
challenged so lets summarize it.

says the guy who thinks obama was pres in 2001


Now 0.1% is 1:1000. Only about 100M taxpayers. That means the claim is
100,000 people make over $3M/year. First, I seriously question that
number as being far too high, but lets go with it.

100,000 * .5M is only $50B so.... with a $1600B overspend, where do you
suggest the other $1550B comes from?

hey you tell me. you guys cut taxes on the 0.1% and let the normal
working people die on the vine

Hey, you vote for debt, statism and more debt, you have to take what
comes along with it. No road paved with debt comes wealth.

No nation or individual before has succeeded with more debt. Not a one.
What makes you fleabaggers think your exempt from reality?

I believe it is greed, so much greed and selfishness you ignore reality.
And when it really bits your arses, I will laugh good.

No, you're just an idiot.

Holy ****, do you ever say anything else? You are like a broken record
with no point, ever... Holy ****ing ****...

Even parrots are smarted the deplume.


Unfortunately, you're not as smart as even a parrot.

Tosk is a right wing stalker, and you're a moron.


We are just scraping greedy fleabagger bulls1t of.


Ewww.. you're scraping each others sh*t? Gross.

good move.

never let it be said the GOP ever tried to do what's right for the

You keep bringing up the Nobel prize, is that supposed to impress me?
About as much as the crown on the head of the king of the Jr. Prom back
in '75...

let's see....which university has the most nobels in economics?

oh....the right wing u. of chicago.

milton friedman

the chicago school

but you're right wing so dont even know your own histor
ry

So, are you suggesting that because it was a great honor years ago, that
it couldn't have changed to something else lately? That's either short
sighted, or dishonest.. Oh wait, don't tell me....


'years ago'

means when the right controlled the bull****. now that it's shown the
right is bankrupt you guys complain about the prize

go figure


You are delusional...


Good part about cutting government welfare, is wf3h will be gone when
the electricity is disconnected for non-payment.

Maybe if we restored the "Reagan/Tip O'Neill" tax rates people would
get on board. ;-)
Something for everyone.


You missed your calling in marketing - I like it.
But only the Dems could propose that, and the Rep response would be
"Give us JFK style Medicare first."
The real problem barring solutions is rigid Rep ideology.
Reagan/Tip O'Neill actually compromised positions.
The Reps stonewall taxes absolutely.
I really hope Dems and Reps can't agree on anything when the massive
Obama tax cuts expire, and that they expire per current law.
Best outcome I can see. The parties can just blame each other.
Any deal they cut will be bad for the country.
Because, as I've said, they're mostly dip****s, without math skills.
Especially the ones who cut the deals.
People will really be ****ed if nothing is done about debt.

1. the bush tax cuts of 2001 and 2003
2. the trillion dollar iraq war

obama had nothing to do with either

Obama continued both.

let's see...number of troops in iraq under bush

150,000

under obama: zero in december.

that's some continuance.

Actually it will be about 50,000. The quibble about whether they are
"combat" soldiers is ridiculous when most are killed by road side
bombs, not combat.

and the tax cuts? oh. you forgot obama wanted to continue them for the
productive middle class and eliminate them for the leeches.

83% of the cost of the Bush tax cut was the people who made less than
$250k. The amount of money that would be recovered if they raised the
taxes of the $250k and up people was doubled by the 14% payroll tax
cut.
The total cost of the Obama tax cut is over a half trillion dollars a
year. That alone is close to half or our deficit.


Your math is wrong, please cite.


The "Bush/Obama" tax cut is $370 billion a year (OMB) and the 14%
payroll tax holiday is another $120Billion.

I agree that is only 60-70% of the deficit but I think getting to $1
trillion is possible.

Unless we can actually come up with 15 -20 million decent jobs it is
all academic anyway.

I am a little frustrated with our attempts at "infrastructure".
Whenever I drive by one of these road projects I see machines sitting
idle with nobody around.
If we have such an unemployment problem, why isn't there an ass in
that seat shoving dirt around and getting this damned road done?


So, you want the gov't to employ people directly? Or, do you want the
gov't to give money to companies? So, basically, you're position on
the gov't doing something positive is complete bs, and you just change
your tune whenever you feel like it.

oh. none.


Jury is on on this, are they going to expand the debt past $14.5 trillion?


there is no choice. it's already been spent. it's just admitting it
has to be paid for


If I were the GOP, I would let 75% of the government shut down for 3
months. And only expand it a bit forcing the issue, debt spend less now
or be off work every 3 months.


they did that once before. they almost disappeared in the next
election.

WRONG!!

the tax CODE says they are highly taxed

the EFFECTIVE tax...loopholes and deductions, means US corporations
pay a lower tax than virtually any country in the OECD

but canuck's a right wing idiot so is too stupid to know this


Face it, too much fleabagging greed and persecuting the successful, and
they leave. Then the fleabagger socialists can all share having nothing.

bush's last budget deficit:

1.2 trillion

obama's are about 1.3

uh huh. seems that, since there's no difference the only reason you
hate obama is...


I don't like any politicians through their own need greed for power sell
debt spending to fleabaggers for votes. Just mortgges our childrends
