It's quite funny that when the debt topic comes up the left automatically brings up Bush. I have a question for those people. If you were so outraged about the spending Bush did, shouldn't you be even more outraged now? No, you're not, it's because you people are playing partisan hack politics and don't have an ounce of integrity.
Their logic is:
Bush spending = bad
Obama spending A HELL OF A LOT more = good
Apparently, there are those who favor an economically weak country. Obama's their man.
I do, too. I'd like every person who voted for Obama--every business and financial tycoon, every movie star, every entertainer, every professional athlete, every media type, every academic, everyone--to come forward and identify themselves. Then each of them could be taxed so that they are left $50,000.00 per family per year, which is about the median family income. That way they would be paying their "fair share" and, hopefully, make a dent in the national debt.

But then you wouldn't have anyone risk making anything but 50'000 a year. They would just make 50000 here and move their investments somewhere else. If 50000 were the top salary then the common man would either be unemployed or making very little.Not worth the risk is what you see now really on job investment by investors.

Precisely. But notice I limited the confiscatory tax to Obama supporters--liberals who believe in taxes and who think profit is a dirty word. The rest of us would do just fine.
I really don't understand the liberal mentality that thinks this kind of debt is great or that the government can spend out-of-control and into prosperity. We're going to crash and burn.
They only think that way now that Democrats hold all 3 branches of power.
This of course over simplifies the fact that if the nation cant borrow anymore due to the debt, then huge slashes in the budget must occur while huge tax increases to support the government, which would result in an economic collapse of all of our investments, retirement funds, value of the dollar, and this includes that home which you posted was almost paid off..
