Out of the two idiot traps
This is a prime example that gives away the so called "moderates" that think somehow they are above those out there that make up the "working class". Calling people idiots never works for any solution, and serves to divide. So after this opening to set up your self fulfilling prophecy of divided extremes, why should anyone read beyond this 6 word opening to your post?
I think OWS is the better of the two but like how I believe the Tea Partiers are idiots for believing their taxes will go up
Really? Tell me, if the President and congressional drones talk about $250K being the threshold, but all indications are that nothing will be done to extend the current tax rates under the Bush plan, which would raise rates for everyone, not just those with higher earnings, then we are being lied to are we not? I have already shown where my taxes would go up by some $3k + should this happen, and I am nowhere near $250K brother.
In fact, taxes that hit me in every facet of life. Gas prices up, Food up, Home energy up, other goods and services all up due to different tax and regulation that this administration has dropped in under the radar. They are crooks, and liars, and destined to be swept out with the trash in about a year if we can hold on.
(they won't would have gone down if the people they voted for in Congress voted for it)
Could you clarify this please?
and want to reign in government spending but hell no don't touch their medicare and social security
I've got some news for ya. Since I was the age of 16 and worked at a job that was paid for by writing a check that taxes came out of, I paid into these systems, with the promise that they were going to be there when I got old enough to retire. Now, because these thieves over the years have stolen that money, I have to be demonized for wanting them to make good on their promise, and all that money I have put in is just gone? Oh and BTW, I am not rich at all. In fact, at 49 I am just now within the recent years making above the median income in the country, so think before you type some snark back at me thinking I am rich or something.
in the same light the OWS people do equally asinine things. A guy holding up an American flag (with the stars being corporate logos) will be doing it while tweeting on his iPod and drinking Starbucks. THAT'S an asshole.
Marxism is unashamed of its hypocrisy.
Many of these people want more than just say, what the Germans or Japanese have they want it without hard work.
Germans or Japanese? Are you kidding? Japan is still dealing with their own lost decade with stimulus after stimulus that failed, and Germany is poised to go down with the Euro in as little as 2 weeks if nothing is done, and you think that what we want?
I've worked with Japanese and Germans and they don't **** around.
America has the hardest working educated workforce in the world.
Hey, sure they got great benefits but the world doesn't go round with everyone working 32 hour work weeks.
Who's doing that? I work 60 to 70 hrs per week. I think you have it backwards.
