  1. If what you say is true, then why do many of our top economists, college professors and the like donate primarily to the democratic party? Whether it will be Obama, Edwards or Clinton on the Democratic Ticket, I see no way that a republican can win next election. You can crack all the jokes you want about former President Clinton, but when he was in office, we weren't bogged down in war, we weren't paying $3.09 for a gallon of gasoline and we weren't being overrun by illegal immigrants.... You guys rant and rave about taxes, but look and see who has stuck it to the working class. Bush's policy has resulted in tens of thousand of jobs leaving for mexico & china, while giving huge tax breaks to the big oil companies. There is a huge downturn in the market and the president is scratching his head right now... Our fathers fought hard for a 40 hour work week, job security, employee benefits, retirement security, etc. Labor Unions stand up for the Worker, yet Bush and his GOP buddies have tried hard to bust the unions. Many folks are struggling now more than ever and I believe the economy is headed south due to Bush's out of control spending. the next generation will still be footing the bill for Bush's spending. When Clinton was in office, we had a balanced budget!!!!!

    I don't see how the Democrats could do any worse than the Republicans. newt Gingrich and his contract with America was nothing more than pure BS. Folks finally have had enough and they booted the GOP out of power..... Years ago, if an employee had to work on Sunday, he was paid time and a half. Yet slowly that was done away with. The Republicans are the ones in the back pockets of the stockholders and the wealthy. Who's looking out for the workers and the elderly? It for sure ain't the GOP!

    Well, I tell you what....you go and vote for a Democrat.

     

    It's obvious when the economic cycle takes a downturn we should use that as an excuse to elect Socialists.

     

    Like I've said before, if you hate rich people so much, go get a job from a poor guy and let him feed your family.

  2. The most important lesson of all: Everything bad that has ever happened to anyone is all the rich people's fault for being successful, and corporate America is determined to make poor slaves of us all. Better off letting the government take care of us. They have always done such a great job of it. :rolleyes:

    You roll your eyes but we have a country full of Oprah and Jerry Springer fans who would cheer for it.

  3. I was told by the people who collected school taxes in the 1960's and after that I was doing a good thing for myself and future generations. But, then I hear that instead of CEO’s making 20 times more money that a middle class worker they make 400 and 500 times more than a middle class worker.

     

    What kind of fool do these tax collecters want me to continue to be?

    The Democratic Party has a future with all the public educated citizens in it.

  4. It is no lie, that I think Jack Nicholson is a idiotic moron, and I have NO respect for his stupid a$$.

     

    ;)

    He can act at least...all Hollywood actors are idiots though.

     

    Conservatives only conserve what they gathered up from everyone else. But, who are they conserving it for? They are certainly not interested in sharing their proceeds. A lot of today’s conservatives got some of their conservative education off school taxes that I paid in the 1960’s, 70’s, 80’s, and even 90’s. But they didn’t let anything trickle down to me. They use that education to take advantage of me and everyone they can take advantage of. They use that education to suck up everything in their path, and are not about to share any of the loot.

    What Socialist said it was their duty to share the loot?

  5. YOU ARE SO MISGUIDED I DONT' KNOW WHERE TO START.

     

    Why don't you ask some of your poor friends if you can have a job....maybe they can take their $1,200 tax refund and give you a job

    to support you and your family. If rich people are so bad, go out and try to live off poor people.

     

    That's probably what our Oprahized society needs, get rid of all the rich people and then witness the utopia liberals would have without the Greedy rich.

     

    Ignorance is mind boggling....no wonder Cynthia McKinney got elected.

     

    I wish we could put liberals on one side of the country and conservatives on the other.

     

    Only problem is liberals would be screaming for money within a week....if not sooner.

  6. It all comes down to the fact that individuals pay taxes....you have a hard time letting a Jerry Spriner watchin'

    Democrat voter understand simple economics though.

     

    If you want to know if Brittney or Lindsay are in rehab....ask a Democrat voter, they can tell you that.

  7. Capitalism is good, but all good things have a potential of being over utilized. That is the reason we have to have a constitution that our government uses to control the utilization of good things, like capitalism. A GOVERNMENT BY THE PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE MUST BE MAINTAINED.

    YOU ARE BORDER LINE HOPELESS. :p :p

     

    I DON'T SAY THAT IN A MEAN WAY, JUST A MATTER OF FACT WAY....YOU KNOW THE WAY SOMEONE POINTS OUT YOUR FLY IS OPEN.

     

    JUST TRYIN' TO HELP.

  8. Not sure about stupidity. I think I would use the term "ignorant". I would also say that too many Americans are selfish and think that the government owes them a living wage, even if they do not earn it themselves. Outrageous.

     

    Lessons #5 through #100 - the government is the biggest negative drain on the economy. They contribute nothing productive to the economy. Socialist economic policy destroys ambition and the drive to succeed; what happens is you drive the most productive and successful entrepreneurs away.

     

    Ergo, Hitlery, the Breck Girl and Obama support and preach economic policies that will have a negative effect on our economy at a time when growth is slowing from 3% to 1.5% (slower growth is OK; it is still growth).

    You're 100% right, the correct word is ignorance.

  9. I'm amazed at the number of people who complain about CAPITAL being "freed" up anywhere....IT IS A GOOD THING

     

    RICH PEOPLE HAVE CAPITAL....FREE UP THE CAPITAL ...WHOEVER HAS IT AND LET THE CLASS WARFARE LOSERS WHINE

    THEY ARE A BUNCH OF IDIOTS ANYWAY.

     

    It amazes me how the idiots in our society somehow think that a rich mans' pain is gonna lead to their gain. total lunacy.

  10. I’m amazed at the stupidity when it comes to economics in this country.

     

    Is it any wonder that Socialist leaning politicians have successfully raised taxes to the point where you have to work till May to pay them?

     

    I had this conversation with an African American about the African American community (He’s one of the few conservative African Americans). I asked….

    “why does 90-95% of a block of people in this country vote for Socialist leaning politicians in a capitalistic society”? That seems counter productive in my logical mind to say the least.

     

    My point is that African Americans are self destructive….He agrees, I guess that makes him an Uncle Tom….not only are they self destructive in that regard but in many others as well. I would argue if you hate rich people and capitalism then that is a lousy mindset to have while living in a capitalistic society…call me crazy.

     

    The answer is simple…you don’t sell Socialism by selling Socialism, you sell it indirectly. Republicans don’t like black people and are gonna tie you onto the back of a truck and drag you down a dirt road unless you vote for these wonderful white liberals.

     

    Race isn’t the only reason Socialism is encroaching but it’s one of the reasons because like I said…it’s an indirect sale.

     

    Because of the cyclical nature of our economy and the Oprahization of Americans, you have many Jerry Spriner watchin’, Oprah worshippin’ braindead citizens believing that life will be better if we stop giving “TAX BREAKS TO THE WEALTHY”….which is kind of like your car being out of gas on the side of the road and someone coming along and saying……”have you thought about taking the oil out too?”

     

    This country is just about totally braindead when it comes to Economics and in all reality because of that deserve whatever poverty comes there way…that may sound harsh…but the stupidity in this area is mind boggling and harshness is justified.

     

    LESSON #1

     

    YOU NEED CAPITAL IN A CAPITALISTIC SOCIETY MORE THAN YOU NEED POLITICIANS CONFISCATING CAPITAL FROM A CAPITALISTIC SOCIETY.

     

    LESSON #2

     

    WEALTH PRODUCES WEALTH UNLESS YOU PUT THAT WEALTH IN THE HANDS OF THE GOVERNMENT.

     

    LESSON #3

     

    EVERYTHING PRODUCED IS THE RESULT OF CAPITALISM, THE GOVERNMENT JUST REDISTRIBUTES WHAT SOMEONE ELSE HAS

    PRODUCED

     

    LESSON #4

     

    YOU CAN’T PRODUCE IN A CAPITALISTIC SOCIETY LIKE A GOVERNMENT WORKER AND EXPECT TO LIVE LIKE A KING….(people need to really learn this one).

     

  11. Bush has never given a damn; has he?

     

    The representation this country has had for the last 12 years has not given a damn about middle class people. I can't stand it any longer, about giving GREEDY people TAX cuts. There's no such thing trickle down economics; IT DOESN'T WORK.

    There is no such thing as trickle up economics you Jerry Springer inbred.

     

    Critisizing trickle down economics is like critisizing someone for saying the sky is blue.

     

    What do you want?

     

    A socialist society ??

  12. Sometimes WEALTH produces more GREED than a country can afford to support. It takes up everything in its path, like a vacuum cleaner. Nothing is left for anyone other than some big blob of fat, sitting on a stool.

    You're right...what was I thinking....give Hitlery CLinton the power to tax us higher, that will solve our problems......you are an intellectual giant

    Walking erection.

  13. Frankly, I think middle class American's are the ones who need tax brakes. They have not been getting represented for the taxes they pay, for years, now! However, the WEALTHY continue to get WEALTHIER, while middle class American's continue to feel the differences, which the rich pretend is not the reality of the situation. The rich tell us, through paid media and other programs that we are doing fine, while we feel much different than that. We are working harder, while we are not being able to pay the bills. We can't even afford to have an appropriate health insurance policy. If we have health insurance it does not cover what ails our health, because the part of the policy that covers that ailment was left out of the policy. If we had a health insurance policy, which covered every ailment possible, only a rich person could afford it. There are not enough jobs, which pays six figures every year, required to pay the bills of middle class Americans.

    The health care industry is a joke because of Govt intervention...if the Govt started a program to give cars to poor people the cost of

    cars would go through the roof.

     

    WEALTH PRODUCES WEALTH -----UNLESS YOU ARE UNWISE ENOUGH TO PUT THE WEALTH IN THE HANDS OF GOVERNMENT

  14. You can't handle the truth.

    We live in a world that has PBL's

     

    What are you gonna do?

    Believe them when they say "tax breaks for the wealthy"

     

    I have more patience for these pieces of human debris than you can possibly fathom

    You weep for the poor, and while your compassion is admirable, it's STUPID

     

    We live in a world that has a market...what are you gonna do?

    Give money to socialist politicians?

     

    I have neither the time or the inlcination to explain myself to a piece of human debris

    who feeds off the proceeds of capitalism and then condemns the producers

     

    I'd rather you just shut up, get a job...vote for a heterosexual, free enterprise lovin', God fearin' American.

     

    PBL......"DID YOU ORDER THE TAX BREAKS FOR THE WEALTHY"?

     

    YOU'RE G** DA** RIGHT I DID

  15. People who tell thremselves the truth have no room in their lives for denial, fantasy, or fiction. These people "tell it like it is" to themselves and others. They are self-critical rather than self-dulging, and hold themselves to high but realistic standards. They are absolutely nondefensive when they get input and feedback, and they're able to find some value in any information. These are not people who were born on third base and think they hit a triple. They know who they are and what they are, and they build from the truth. They do not kid themselves about the scope of demands of their challenges. They deal with the truth, sense they realize that nothing else will make their visions obtainable.

     

    If you know where the bottom is, you can deal with it. If you don't, the problems cannot be planned for.

    You are a veritable plethora of insight and stability in a world gone mad....or a pain in the a$$, however you want to look at it.

  16. I've never been "good" enough to get a mayberry. I guess I'm too blunt in the way I phrase things. I thought I might get a mayberry for staying off the board for so long but that wasn't good enough, either. So I'm apparently mayberry-proof.

    I feel ya....I mean...understand you, I dont' feel ya in a Annoying moose type of way

  17. The old people are gonna vote for Hitlery...and Hitlery is very smart politically....she knows they vote.

     

    Young people will give a listen to some rock star spout off about voting and may just be too stoned to care

    to vote come election day....HITLERY ROTTEN CLINTON HAS WRAPPED UP THE OL' FOGEY VOTE.

     

    AND THAT IS THE VOTE THAT COUNTS AND CAN BE COUNTED ON.

     

    Young people should be voting out Socialists like Hitlery but instead they just vote for the newer

    generation Socialist in Obama. His day will come...He'll raise the bejeezus out of taxes before

    He is laid 6 feet under....just give it time and his Socialist time at the helm will arrive.

  18. OK, I guess a little bit.

     

    Of course I would (almost) never wish harm on a human being but....

     

    This animal and all non-domesticated animals belong in the wild. That is why I HATE going to the circus. I think bears should be out roaming the woods, pooping in the forest, and catching salmon, NOT dancing in pink tutus. This tiger was doing nothing but what nature intended was caught, caged, and forced to be a spectacle of its prey. No, on a deeper level I didn't want the animal destroyed.

     

     

    However, I don't care if you are human, animal, or ghost, you hurt my child or family and you will never never get the chance to experience the end of my wrath.

    Well, at least you're honest....I don't understand it....but to each his own.

  19. How would you feel about your boyfriend partyingn with Marilyn Manson (the band) for a night?

     

    I really don't want to go to this show, but there's a teeny, tiny part of me that thinks things could get out of hand?

     

    Should I just let him go solo and institute the "don't ask, don't tell" for the night? Or should I go with him to make sure it doesn't get too wild?

     

    He wants me to go, I just don't really want to.

    I wouldn't worry about it....musicians and people who go to see them have incredibly high morals.

     

    I've never heard of an unfaithful musician.
