  • Steve for Real:

    Don’t give up so easily. The Capital Gains Tax needs to be much higher than what it is today. Lowering the rate was part of Bush’s Wealth Transfer Gift to the Rich. Reason: For the Filthy Rich, much of their Income comes from Capital Gains; and they need to be paying more – - much more. Might ask the Oracle from Omaha, what he thinks about the Capital Gains Tax.

    During the Golden Age of this Country – - the 30 years following WWII; the marginal Tax Rate was 91%; and there was not a lot of holler-in During that period, the Rich had a much stronger sense of commitment to the Public Good. I believe even up to the time of Reagan, the marginal Tax Rate was still as high as 70%.

    The Rich do not want to pay for Public Education, College Assistance, Health Care for all, Environmental Protections or clean up. Nor, do they care much for upgrading our Infrastructure. spending money on R & D, and assistance to the Poor. By Romney’s own admission, almost half of us don’t count. Yes . . . I am one of his Moochers; because I am receiving Social Security and Medicare. So, at my age, I guess you could place me in the, “Taker,” category.

    But those needy people – - the poor, their children, the unemployed, the sick, the injured Vets; our, “Taking,” Pales in Comparison to the Subsidies,Tax Cuts, and Earmarks, handed out to the Rich Elites. One has no idea how bad Crony Capitalism is today in Government. Hypocrites, all! Tax Evasion, is a form

  • When will the Kids on both sides, grow up and stop trying to create the News? The aftermath of the Romney Gaffe, certainly doesn’t deserve this kind of attention. It is a complete waste of time – - and seems very childish, to say the least. Both sides need to move on to something else: like Term Limits; Restrictions on Campaign Contributions; and, certainly the National Debt, and the Pending Sequestration.

  • If only it would – -or could, be True! Nice job by the CR, Propaganda Machine! If, only it were true!

    Talk is Cheap; Pep Rallies don’t always result in Victories. Rhetoric and Hype – - do not – - problems solve.
    Before one get’s too Drunk on the, “Big Lies,” coming out of the Mouths of the Neo-Conservatives; and that Bastion of from the Right – - the Radical Christians; one needs to put a hold on Rhetoric, and take a look at Recent Past Behavior of the GOP.

    Blaming Obama for the Condition of the Economy was a huge tactical mistake! It will now open the whole debate as to what has really been going on in this Country for the past 30 years. Opinions are NOT FACT, and an examination of the FACTS will be terribly enlightening.

    1. If the Government is Broke – - kept on Life Support by China, and the Fed; and the Middle Class is being decimated, and the Poor are in such dire straights – - who has the Money? Where did the Wealth of the Nation Go? As always – - Follow the Money! Do the Democrats have it? In your Dreams!

    Who was responsible for the, Great Wall Street Heist, and the Corporate Welfare Bailout following the Robbery of Middle Class America – - the Moms, Pops, Grand Parents and Children – - that built this great Country? The Rich Elites – - ;largely Republican – - swindled, or defrauded Middle America out of at least, $10 Trillion Dollars! And, for the Victims? Nothing! Not even Bread or Soup.

    Nation’s Death Wish for it’s Young: Vote

  • Watch the Moderate Republicans, Libertarians, Women, Hispanics, Blacks, Gays, Seniors, the :Poor; and Hollowed Out Middle Class Run Like Hell!

    Ryan is smooth, but, again, another Washington Insider. No experience!

    I don’t know; just can’t see this move. This is a high Career Risk for Ryan.

    Yet, with Deep Pockets of the Dark Money Cartels – - they might pull it off.

  • Ah, yes . . . an employment opportunity! Understand the Cartels are hiring, and the pay is damn good! Kids gotta eat – Bro.

    If I am a good Mule, pretty soon I will get my own Route; and hook my Home Boys up with Gigs of their own. Times are tough Man, and it’s nice the Cartels are conducting Job Fairs here, Them Cartel Chiefs are sure lookin out for us 99′ers. Wonder if they have someone in mind as a Third Party, Write-in Candidate? Paperwork – - no problem – - we have the best in the in the business. It worked for one of the Brothers; and he is, high up, today.

    Anyone know where an application can be picked up? Job are coming to America!

  • Some of the responses here are so, “funny!” Even more so than the Weatherman’s Foolery. Just goes to show you how quickly a, “wedgie,” can form in one’s, “shorts.” HA, HA, Ha! No need to read the, “Funny Papers,” any more when one has access to this Site, for MORONS! One can use this Site, for, “Stand up,” quote-able’s during the Day! It can really lighten the stress and tension in the Office at the Big Bank. (No name-dropping, now!)

  • In a Democratic, Free Society; we don’t have to answer your questions – - even in an Election Year!, Ah,sshheeett; and, INQUIRING MINDS want to know: why the Off-shore Accounts? Why the refusal to release Tax Info? Why was it necessary for you to become a, “Rent Seeker,” aka, Corporate Raider; and, destroy jobs for working Americans? Why do you – - and and your Rich, Right Wing Neo-con, Cronies, find it imperative to attack Women, Gays, Hispanics, Blacks,and the unemployed; in this Election Cycle? Why did the Speaker of the House, pretty much, “Diss,” you, and throw you under the bus, a few days ago? Why are Moderate Republicans distancing themselves, from your Campaign? Then, when they exercise their FREE SPEECH, you call them bed-wetters?

    Bed-wetters, you say? Ok, then what do we call you and your Posse when you, and your Dark Money Cartels, are ******** all over 90%, of the American People on practical every matter that pertains to equally, equity, fairness, and equal opportunity? How is Obamacare any different that your touted Romneycare?

    Better finish here; as I understand that you are due for another BM.

  • Pea Brains: the battle over the, “ism’s,” is SO YESTERDAY! We’re talking about ECONOMIC SURVIVAL – KIDS!

    What does REALTY show us about the word, “Communism,” TODAY?

    1. First, Chinese Communism SAVED your sorry ass, and mine. If the, “Commies,” weren’t carrying us; and, our DEBT; we would already be on the, “scrap-heap,” of another FAILED Democratic – - Capitalistic, System; a ever-increasing popular theme in World History.

    2. China – - that Evil Communist Nation – - is/has, shoved, “free market capitalism,” down our throats. They are, “Eating Our Lunch,” using, “Free Market Capitalism,” aka, State Directed Capitalism – - and; in the process have raised 400 Million people out of Poverty, and into their Middle Class. This has been occurring while our Unregulated Predatory, “so-called, Capitalistic System has moved 50 Million Middle Class Working Stiffs, into Poverty – - or near, Poverty.

    If the Banksters and Corporate Predators in this Country tried to use their, “Financial Weapons of Mass Destruction,” (sub-primes, CDS’s, and, the big, “D’s), in China today; they would be fined and likely taken to the Wood Shed the FIRST TIME. After that, if it happened again; they will likely lose a hand, or worse.

    In the U.S., if you Steal, Slick – - or Game the System, you may be fired (unlikely), given a BONUS of $100 BILLION; and a ride home in a LIMO!

    Is this what the Founders and the Greatest Generation, hand in mind, when the Ship was

  • Milk Toast and Honey, anyone?

    Someone tell me: What is the difference between “Tweedlie-Dum, and Tweedlie-Dee?” Is it time to take a hard look at, Gary Johnson, the former Gov. of NM; and, the Third Party Libertarian Candidate?

    Things aren’t going to change much until you clean the two ,”out-houses,” in Congress. Both are corrupt to the core, and beholden to special interests.

  • People, there are no jobs and there hasn’t been many since Bill Clinton left Office.

    In a July, 2010, story in BUSINESS WEEK, the Writer called the period from 1999 – 2009; “The Lost Job Decade.” Here’s why. During that period, the Private Sector created only 1.1 Million Jobs; and, even some of those can’t be attributed to the Private Sector, because, they were spin-offs, from the Public Sector that needed products or services which, they, themselves were unable to provide.

    A couple of other FACTS make this Job Creation Record – - Disgusting! 1. During this same period, the Corporate Welfare Pigs sucked a Trillion Dollars out of the Government Trough. (Corporate handouts and perks of all kinds, were running about $100 Billion a year.) 2. Also, during this SAME period, President Bush gave the Rich the largest Tax Cut in American History. In fairness to Bush, it appears he may have been, “dubbed,” much like we all are today. The Rich were supposed to create jobs and invest in America; but, neither happened! They just made out like, Bandits!

    Anyone who believes in Free Markets, probably believes in the Easter Bunny as well. Folks, we haven’t had Free Market Capitalism for over 35 years, and, maybe NEVER!

    Loose Regulations and the Repeal of Glass-Steigall, got us extremely high risk behavior on Wall Street; and, led to the Crash of 2008, which, some Economists of the Era are calling, “The Great Wall Street Heist.” More later.
