if youve never worked in a grocery store then you dont know.
point is they shouldnt be treated any better than the rest of us,actually worse since they are relying on the government to help feed them.

elderly and actually disabled (not the "im lazy,or im too fat to work") can be exempt from that.



im not sure what point i was making, just figured we were talking about random stuff like blaming republicans and "their god"

"Remember kids, if someone doesn't have a job, they're not a person and should be treated worse than others."

What an ignorant statement. You should be ashamed.

wow post this bail out and post that bailout hes the least spending presidnet is a laugh. Bush's largest annual deficit was 500 billion. Obama is running 2 trillion dollar annuals. Thats all simple math. The annual deficit has gone up 400% since he took over. The sad thing is unemployment has also gone up drastically. Food and gas have gone up. Healthcare has gone up. Taxes have gone up.
I understand it all going up when you quadruple our annual deficit, what I don't understand is how unemployment goes up as well. Well actually I do, too much food stamps and gov't employees. Not that I blame the people, get your Obama money while you can. Just spend it wisely.

What we need is a Republican in the office. Then they could deregulate business and send America further into the abyss you've circled for years and years now.

It's win...uh...win?

What we need is a President that represents the people, not special interests.
What we need is a President that doesn't sow division for political gain.
What we need is a President that upholds the rule of law.
What we need is a President that will stand up to Wall Street and punish those responsible for the financial rape of this country.
What we need is a President that understands that extracting more wealth from the citizens is not the solution to every one of our problems.
What we need is a President that believes it is wrong to tax the unborn in order to spend now.
What we need is a President that understands and honors the limits of the Federal Government as defined by our Constitution.

How do you propose that? You just negated every member of both parties.

Hey Rich people......change is coming!

Enjoy your new tax rates.....the rest of us have ZERO sympathy for you!

1) The wealthy already pay their fair share of taxes.
2) I'm opposed to sending any more money to the corrupt, wasteful scumbags in Washington.
3) There is no guarantee that raising taxes will even bring in more revenue for the Federal Government (see the Laffer Curve).

The wealthy don't pay a fair share. They're supposed to, but they hide money in other countries in order to screw their own. If they didn't do that, they'd pay a fair share, but they do so they don't.
That's why that statement is patently false.

again, I didn't know people who make 50k and up are rich

because, guess what, there taxes are going up too

If the rich are already paying 50% of the Federal Income tax, isn't that "their fair share"? Or do you see a higher percentage being "fair"?
