Yes. I do. Revenue to pay down debt is basic math. Many Americans are stupid. And liberals can and do really cut things.
I know for a fact that many of them are. It is a product of our biology. We are social animals and many of us tend to follow leaders like sheep.
But I am not thinking of the same ones that you are.
Not anyone. And not everyone. But it's the law of large numbers. Somebody has to be insane. And those who believe that gridlock is good while we are staring down the barrel of a financial gun are at the top of that list.
You are starting to literally froth like a hydrophobic spaniel. That is the kind of hysterical handwringing that demonstrates the American right wing is incapable of approaching our problems soberly, intelligently, and with an eye towards the national well being.
The only good news I can glean from it is that the self destructive incompetence of right wing brinkmanship does not derive from their evil. It derives from their stupidity.
I see... more rhetoric... I was hoping for an intelligent conversation and I get drivel...
If you learn a bit about the tax code, you will discover that the major "loophole" for guys like Romney and Buffets is not really a loophole; it's the fact that long-term capital gains tax is at 15%. As long as that stays the case, they will always have a much lower tax rate than working salaried guys like me.
I know that.
My point is, if YOU are pushing an issue, as POTUS, you should at least have the sense to NOT claim all of the write off's that you can.
BTW....if obama handles HIS finances like he handles OURS, he'll be living under a highway overpass by 2014!
But you hate the idea of increasing revenue to address at least a part of the deficit. So much for the crocodile tears about borrowing from China.
Okay, so you want the President to write, sign and execute laws to punish businesses from sending jobs overseas, with higher taxes. Do you also support an importation tax, along with a continued demand for “free market”?
I see, it starts with taxing the "Rich" for the government's over spending, the government putting their selves and us in this place. When the "Rich" run out of money who else will the government come after. You seem to support .......continue spending doesn't matter how they do it. The government shouldn't charge a certain sect of people to pay for their debt and over spending.
Why are we sending money to countries that don't need it, they have their own means...........
Maybe, this President could've done a lot with money that he spent on the failed Solyndra & Fast and Furious scheme.
