Princeton Economist: Obama Campaign Is Misrepresenting My Study on Romney's Tax Plan

Re: Princeton Economist: Obama Campaign Is Misrepresenting My Study on Romney's Tax P

There's no email from the President. It's a republican campaign tactic to smear the President, like Bush's campaign tactic was to smear McCain.

Find a topic with valid and true information on the President for us to discuss. It's only there you'll find out my views. But on this load of right wing pundit lies, I'm not defending the President, I'm exposing the baser nature of republicans.

You contend The Weekly Standard made up that quote from Obama? You think Obama didn't really say that and The Weekly Standard is lying? LOL!!! That's the funniest thing I've ever heard.

Anyway, if you weren't just trying to find a way to ignore or minimize how much Obama screwed up, you would have checked on The Weekly Standard's quote from Obama. If you had, you would know they told the truth.

Romney’s tax plan adds up to a middle class tax hike — Barack Obama

You got any more ways to avoid the truth, dude?
 
Re: Princeton Economist: Obama Campaign Is Misrepresenting My Study on Romney's Tax P

Obama didn't spin it. The corporate media spun it and the President responded. And I don't find it ironic that the corporate media spun it.

LOL!!! Now you want to blame "corporate media".

Sorry, dude. That won't work either. I already gave you the link to Obama's statement. The media didn't make him say that.

Well, your ideas about the "baser nature of republicans" are all off-base in this issue.

I guess you'll be moving on now that you've been proven wrong.
 
Re: Princeton Economist: Obama Campaign Is Misrepresenting My Study on Romney's Tax P

Taxing the rich 80% is possible too.

it would eliminate the deficte and pay all USA debt in 5-10 years......

That is a REAL plan for USA.

We have had enough of gov used to soak the poor and print money for the Rich via the MIC.
What's the point of increasing taxes when the government just prints what it needs? You could tax every single one of us 99%, but without proper budgeting, you'll still manage to get into debt.
 
Re: Princeton Economist: Obama Campaign Is Misrepresenting My Study on Romney's Tax P

Do you think the lean of the publication takes away from the statement from the professor...whom Obama is inaccurately quoting? I mean...dude...a Princeton economist is telling you that Obama is misrepresenting his own study. It doesn't matter if it was reported by the Weekly Standard or ABC.

What email are you talking about? The one the Professor sent to Weekly Standard? It's quoted in the article. Or, do you believe Weekly Standard put that guy's name to what they say is his email? And it's not his?

Come on, dude...you can do better than this, eh?

Take it easy on these libs. They really can't help themselves when they blame the source rather than argue the facts. It's like a reflex for them.
 
Re: Princeton Economist: Obama Campaign Is Misrepresenting My Study on Romney's Tax P

****, on your ridiculous plan, welfare would be better than working. What happens when there's nobody left to foot the bill? It does make a certain sense that you'd want to dissuade education, though.

Welfare is gone. So working is alwasy better. Talk REALITY....not GOP lies.

And yes I am serious. Last long war we had was 94% taxes. $2T for dumb Iraq war and how much have the rich paid for it???? 15% is not enough.
 
Re: Princeton Economist: Obama Campaign Is Misrepresenting My Study on Romney's Tax P

Who doesn't work?

The mega rich, they collect checks from thier broker.....

Once the rich PAY FOR (via high taxes) instead of PROFIT (via low taxes and massive MIC profits) from the MIC and gov spending, then and aonly then will the budget get cut. MIC the most of course since it does nohting
for USA.

You're going to say that welfare is "gone" then accuse the GOP of lying?

I remember a story I was once told in my childhood. It involved giving a mouse a cookie. As long as the government can freely take from it's citizens without reproach, it will be wasteful and want a glass of milk to go along with it.

Go apply for some. Then you will see it is gone. $200 of SNAP is nothing.

NOTHING is called fighting for a WAITING list.

Thousands Crowd Atlanta Area Housing Authority For Section 8 WAITING LIST, Fights Break Out (VIDEO)

So in the last 10 years how long have you been on SNAP or gotten any housing or healthcare?

Kind of like the rich taking wages???? Wasting it on vainity....?????

ROMNEY is perfect example of this. Cut wages from tiny $10.22 to min wage in one place.

No, not like that.

I'm not a fan of minimum wage anyway. You should be able to enter into a voluntary contract regardless of the conditions.
 
Re: Princeton Economist: Obama Campaign Is Misrepresenting My Study on Romney's Tax P

The mega rich, they collect checks from thier broker.....

That is after they have worked hard to get there in the first place, saved their money, and perhaps made risky investment decisions. Sure, there are some that have inherited their wealth. But even those guys are putting people to work by consuming products and services. They are buying their own healthcare, don't need government to provide them food stamps, and are paying more than their "fair share" in taxes.
 
Re: Princeton Economist: Obama Campaign Is Misrepresenting My Study on Romney's Tax P

So you want to take 80% of the earnings of anyone earning $200k and over?
Are you sure that's not a marginal rate?
 
Re: Princeton Economist: Obama Campaign Is Misrepresenting My Study on Romney's Tax P

No, not like that.

as 1800 to 1900 proved, employers never allow voluntary employment. They always undercut, exploit, divide etc.

They only thing they understand is force.

Actions of Affrican platinum mine murdering 35 people is history repeating itself.

Re: Princeton Economist: Obama Campaign Is Misrepresenting My Study on Romney's Tax P

All jobs contract and union. (unions reformed from corrupt corp infuence))
All jobs 20 days paid vacation
etc etc - like Germany or France.

- Why would you force someone into a union that doesn't want to be?
- Germany has 6 weeks vacation.
 
Re: Princeton Economist: Obama Campaign Is Misrepresenting My Study on Romney's Tax P

Are you Xfactor as well as 274ina?
Or did Xfactor get the numbers from you?

That is like "forcing" healthcare......dumb argument.

that is Average vacation. The LAW has a min of 20 days for all jobs.

you will note USA LAW has ZERO days.

When was the last time no one reproached the govt about taxes?
