The libs want the gubment to sieze pensions and 401K plans. Since the SS trust fund has been drained, they look for another funding to drain.

The Social Security fund has NOT been drained, it has been picked pocketed by Bush and the republicans. Don't quite understand "gubment to sieze pensions and 401K plans".

By the way, if the Tea Party believes in everyone being responsible, then why don't the wealthiest 2% pay their part of the taxes? If someone making $50,000.00 is paying 25% in taxes, shouldn't the ones making 9 million pay 25% in taxes instead of 3%. Seems like the Tea Party folks only want the working middle class to be responsible for keeping the government running.

OOPs. I gave you the benefit of the doubt. You asked what the Tea Party was and even inserted :"in all sincereity"

You know all about the tea party. You are NOT seeking to learn, You were pretending inquisitiveness and already had opinions ready to go.

The wealthiest file and pay taxes as required by law unless they want to work for Obama,. They get the tax cheat privilege.

Are you paying a good share of taxes? You enjoy the same services the wealthy do.
Class warfare says the wealthy never pay their share.

If we tax people because they have saved money, that means they can hire less workers and buy less capital equipment and build fewer homes that create construction jobs. Is that what you want?

I guarantee you got that from a liberal web site. Bush never had access to the SS fund. I take it they didn't cover that in Money and banking class in your university?

OOPs yourself, read the first page coadie of this thread. I went to a website that was posted. You need to read the post then make your judgments.

Wrong again coadie, I do not go to liberal websites, that came from my head and my memory. Al Gore even talked about a Lock-box for Social Security, he knew that there would be hands dipping in the kitty.

I was outrageously disinterested in studying history as a student. The Boston Tea party tossed the tea into the harbor in protest of the Crown calling for high taxes. The gubment owned the East India Tea company and the prices were a rip off.

Re: Republican Issues

Ok, this is the end of this thread. I see no one can give anything that the republicans are for or against. The only thing that has been determined here is that the Tea Party is going to boot out all the so-called republicans (RINOs), and have it their way, and the only issues that the republicans are against is the issues that the democrats are for.
