According to “La Mentalita” (which unless I am mistaken could be interpreted to mean little mind; very appropriate), you are racist for critcizing anything about Obama whatsoever!

Here’s a thought for all of you little leftists out there. When was the last time a poor person built a factory and hired a bunch of people? When a company has to cut operating expenses to pay taxes, they cut the largest controllable expense which is payroll, ie they cut jobs. How much income tax does someone who’s unemployed pay into the system? Is it more than they take out or less? How easy is it for someone to pay their mortgage or rent on unemployment benefits? When a company can no longer reduce its payroll expenses to pay taxes and stay in business, how do they get the money to continue paying taxes? They raise prices. The only means to attempt to control inflation is for the federal reserve to raise interest rates to restrict buying. This is why when you raise taxes on businesses, you cause increases in unemployment, inflation, and interest rates. This leads to a condition called Stagflation. A stagnant economy (no growth) at the same time that there is double digit inflation. If you want confirmation of what I’ve said is true, research the Carter administration. Obama is nothing new, except he just wants to do it on a much grander scale with a larger economy, a larger population, and stakes that make him look like a high roller to Jimmy Carter’s penny ante player. His plans will bankrupt this country. It could result in a worldwide depression that makes the 30s look like a joke. If that occurs, I expect a revolution to break out. Quite possibly with the US being broken into a number of regional countries as various ethnic groups fight for supremacy in their sphere of influence. Considering I’m in what the Mexicans want to claim as Aztlan, I’m not very keen on that idea.

You are a Socialist, and if you are a Patriot it isn’t of traditional America.

Obama is not only a Socialist, he’s a Marxist.

We have many conversations on the subject of redistribution of wealth in the archives. Taking tax money from the wealthy and handing a person $1200 at the end of the year, a person that didn’t pay any income tax, is by definition, redistribution of wealth. It is welfare. We both know that. And what is the poors burden? What is their responsibility?

When did you start quoting Powell, yesterday?

I pay local/state taxes for the schools, police, fire, libraries, roads etc..Part of my federal taxes cover the same items..What does Obama have to do with it? It takes the House and the Senate to appropriate the funds, all the POTUS does is sign it.

Why should the top 5% pay more? They are paying more than their fair share. There is no reason that any of the services listed aren’t already being taken care of.

BTW, who is complaining about paying for those services? We are referring to redistribution of wealth..

FYI..
