Re: Obama and Democrats are Not Serious About Econ

Another great one was the public employees union in Wisconsin bashing the Koch brothers as big business gone amuck, when their own pension fund was heavily invested in the Koch stocks.Typical lib idiots!!

A little icing on the cake: their "woman" lost the SC election.

All that union thug money wasted.

Sorry to all those who paid into the union machine, I know it's no laughing matter to see your money go up in smoke.

Psssttt...Sonny...the problem our politicians have is not that they don't have enough money to work with----its a SPENDING PROBLEM. But don't tell any of your friends cause they might stop blaming the rich folks and corporations.

And another theing...Medicare would not change for everyone 55 and older. Not one bit. And for those under 55 they will get a changed Medicare program, not an eliminated one. But don't tell your friends cause they might stop believing the lies coming from the White House/Democrats that Medicare was going to be taken away.

Ladies and Gentlemen, EXHIBIT A for the reason Barak Obama got elected in the first place.

Also EXHIBIT A for why our economy has not improved in almost 3 YEARS...

The Idiots do not even think when they spew rhetoric like that. Anyway it plays out, it comes to the 300 Million Middle Class to pay the bill. Either in Higher Taxes or in Higher Prices of Goods and Services.
I saw a statistic some time back that said that if you taxed everyone who made $1 million or more 100% of their income, it wouldn't be enough to pay off the national debt. Raising taxes is NOT our answer! Revenue is NOT the problem. Its a spending issue, stupid!

Re: Obama and Democrats are Not Serious About Econ

Come on you stupid Republicans! Leave Medicare and Social Security alone!!!! Can't you understand that? Or MAYBE, MAYBE, you understand that if you leave Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security alone they will kill themselves! They are all going to a "poverty hell" in a hand basket! Kick the can on down the road and let someone else worry about the problem. That's what we have been doing for years and it seems to have worked!

Let's see if I can make it simple for the simple minded. MEDICARE, MEDICAID AND SOCIAL SECURITY ARE GOING BROKE!!! Do nothing and it happens! Pure and simple.

Tax the rich and you will not create enough money coming in to fix the problem. And guess what, the price of goods, (things that we buy) will go up according to the amount of taxes that are levied against the rich. (That's why they are rich! They're smart enough to make a profit so they can hire people and pay them a wage!)

Choke the rich with more taxes and the middle-class and the poor pay the bill!

Cut taxes, and the rich invest in more business opportunities, hiring more people, paying individuals who then pay their fair share in taxes and the economy increases, collected taxes increase, (not because our individual taxes went up, but because more people are paying taxes.)

Now go ahead and put your head back in the sand! Do you realize your showing your ......! OOPs!

1. Why is paying less than a confiscatory level of taxes a "break"? It's my money, isn't it? I don't remember agreeing to pay for Obama's big spending failed policies.

2. Two words: "Laffer Curve". Google it.

3. Government taxes make up more of the cost of each gallon of gas than do "Big Oil" profits. Perhaps the government should put it's money where it's mouth is an cut their share of the take to "help us out at the pumps".

4. The Ryan budget does not change Medicare AT ALL for ANYONE over 55. For those of us under 55, it's a choice of making changes or an insolvent program.

5. Not raising the debt ceiling would force austerity on the federal government, something they sorely need. The world would not end, they would just have to work harder and have fewer pet projects to buy votes. Stop buying the scare scams.
