Or was that included in your #5?

You should try turning off MSNBC and actually thinking for yourself once in a while.

Now I got a chuckle out of that. But honestly, it wouldn't suprise me if a number of them on both sides of the aisle were doing blow. Remember, all for me, but none for thee.

If you do not believe that increasing the financial lot of the middle class is the objective of the republican party, then perhaps you have not been listening enough to conservatives, as that is one of their MAIN OBJECTIVES. Well to do, prosperous Americans do not need democrats, as they are not dependent on federal handouts.


5% of the population works for minimum wage. Therefore (while I actually support a minimum wage hike), such a raise would affect few people and probably increase unemployment.

How do we REALLY increase wages and employment?

1. cut individual taxes
2. cut corporate taxes
3. allow energy exploration on federal lands
4. reduce regulations
5. muzzle the trial lawyer's association
6. reduce energy costs
7. stop Obamacare
8. renegotiate/abandon NAFTA and China trade status


Prosperity comes from active business and manufacturing, not the federal government. Witness the times of prosperity in America- that prosperity came from a robust private sector. By reducing the cost of business, we attract more business, cut costs, and increase the demand for labor and thus wages.

In your last statement you've made the perfect case that the only way that the government can "create jobs" in the private sector is to get the hell out of the way! I also agree with your list.
