this was a profound statement.
an attorney sees jesus as a socialist politician.
he wasnt. jesus on paying taxes did not say that.
here is what he said.
luke 20:25
render unto caesar the things that are caesar's and unto God the things that are God's.
.
You realize this extra tax money is directly handed over to the likes of Jamie Dimon and JP Morgan Chase.
Much more tax money is given to Wall Street than to the poor.
It seems to me people should cheat on their taxes if they won't get caught.

I always wonder about people like this...I mean really how crazy do you have to be to support GWB whole-heartedly and then turn around and say Obama is a 'marxist'?
It's either you are just a flat our racist, or totally delusional, or both!
GWB and Obama are so much alike...You just have to be a total nutjob...There is not other explanation
"It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God." - Mark 10:25
"do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth" - Matthew 6:19
"You cannot serve both God and Money" - Matthew 6:24
"woe to you who are rich." - Luke 6:24
Yeah, Jesus kind of would.
Don't push that BS Obama is a secret Muslim, that's just tin foil hilarity now.
all good points, but they just indicate that the rich should be generous with their money. and as indicated when jesus was asked about paying taxes, his response was;
whose image is on the coin? the answer came back "ceaser", and then jesus said render unto ceaser that which is ceasers, and render unto god that which is gods. that means to pay the taxes the government decides they want to levy.

Like any good white, Republican, upper middle-class, subrubanite, Christian, dbag knows...People are only poor because THEY WANT TO BE! They are poor because they made 'bad decisions'. Those of us who are uber-successful are that way because we work so much harder than the rest of you...We ALWAYS make the best decisions, while you ALWAYS make BAD decisions! Jesus loves us because we are so pure and work so hard, he hates you because you just want handouts!
That's why we can sit back and actually not do a lick of work or create a single job and make millions just moving our money around...That's why you low-lifes can work yourselves to death and get fired, after working for a company for 20yrs, for missing a day of work!
Just accept it, Jesus loves us and hates you because you are lazy, want gov't handouts, want tax increases on the super rich(us), and voted for Obama!
Sincerely,
The TeaPublicans
except for the part about obama being a marxist, your post is pure rubbish.

So I think Obama has the documentation to prove it.
Personally, I think we should pluck 20% out of every account of the top 1% and that means their overseas accounts as well. They are all thieves, cheats and liars and I think a 20% tax on all their holdings is a good start.
If they don't like it they can give up their citizenship and take their chances elsewhere. We don't need them and their greedy money grubbing ways.

again more stupidity. just because someone has bank accounts in overseas banks does not mean they are thieves, liars, and cheats. it just means that they are distributing their wealth so that if a bank or two that they have money in goes bankrupt, they can minimize their losses. it also allows them more flexibility when they invest in overseas markets and businesses as well.
as for limiting CEO, and other executive pay, suppose the government decided that EVERYONES pay scales should be regulated through the government? would that satisfy you? if you were making, lets say, $50,000 per year as an engineer, and the government decided that was too much money for you to make, and they reset your yearly pay at say $36,000 per year, would you be happy with that? i doubt it very much. the government should NOT be in the business of setting the pay scales for ANYONE, unless they work for the government.

Yes! note that He said to render unto Casesar a what IS Caesar's. Doesn't day to render to Caesar what Caesar SAYS is his. Caesar isn't the fella he used to be. He's a horribly tyrannical taskmaster and needs to be put on notice, sort of thing.
We already knew this about Obama in 2008. During the campaign he gave an interview in which he stated he believed there were many different ways to reach salvation, IIRC he uses an analogy to spokes on a wheel.
Think it was called "My individual salvation, depends on our collective salvation." Whatever that meant.
He's full of crap.
Like he never heard of "Thou Shall NOT Covet Thy Neighbor's Goods"?
Very true
