Detroit councilwoman to Obama: We voted for you, now bail us out

I am not for progressive taxation... punishment of success that's right out of the Communist Manifesto.
You seem to be for Parasite Nation.

I only take issue with this.

If progressive taxation is from the communist manifesto... why the hell do all former communist countries have the flat tax?

It is a very communist idea.
 
Never said otherwise. However, the idots--educated and uneducate--are far more dangerous to the country's well being, as proven by this broad.

Yea, you DID say otherwise. That is why I called you on it. Do you read what you write?

She's the average Obama supporter...looking for the handout.
 
The assumption you made is that because I lean slightly liberal, that I expect handouts from the government. It's a wrong assumption.

I think you are misunderstanding, you jumped in the conversation that you may not have understood what I was responding to, read my post # 21 and read the caption I was responding too. Maybe this will clear up where your getting off base.

It still doesn't say what you say it says.

Doh... ugh... geez... this is a hard one... let me point it out to you.
See word above in red and bolded.
In Commi Pinko colors for ya too.

Now... why would former Communists, those exposed to such a rot gut system do this?
 
Me loves this mate... because it shows how poisoned the Socialist Left is.
Why don't we all pay the same rate? Why? Because folks like you love class warfare. You see... Romney earned HIS money... Parasite Nation wants government to steal it from folks and give it to them.
"Spread the wealth around." Socialism.


Liberty... equal under the eyes of the law... I'm 100% for it. I am not for progressive taxation... punishment of success that's right out of the Communist Manifesto.
You seem to be for Parasite Nation. Hey! At least we know where you stand... blow that horn champ!

Romney/wealthy/BainCapital and strip company bones and profit from the carcass, outsource/ship overseas the jobs and increase the ranks drawing on the unemployment dole. Ship all good machinery overseas to a country whose operators will operate for less. Give him a tax credoit for doing this. All while reducing this scumbag's taxes so he can do more of this.

or

buy some rust remover to improve the lot of Detroit. Or, just give money to Americans to spend in America. Gee, this must be way too complicated for my socialist? intellect or else your head is still stuck. Try vaseline and a sustained pull. Sorta like overcoming constipation. I'll be rootin' fer ya'.

Let's say it is true... what does this have to do with the Communist system of taxation and the Parasite Nation we've become? ZERO.

You know what has destroyed more American jobs... Dumb ass greedy unions, and dumb ass power hungry, overbearing Socialistic government. 1000 corporate raiders couldn't do the damage those two groups of morons have done.

Git it?

Of course not... you're too caught up in your little world of envy to notice the real problems.
 
It still doesn't say what you say it says.

I'll pass on your childish banter, junior.
 
Show me exactly where she asked Obama to come and bail out Detroit.

She is stupid, but so is spinning this story with assumptions and inferences.

Then what do you think she meant by quid pro quo?

Talk about spin.

Do you really believe in your own convoluted logic?

Just wondering...

i will answer yours the day you land on the planet earth. Come back to us, your make believe world seems to have made you very angry and bitter.
 
Exactly how are they taxed more than the 'rich'?

Oh, I get it, they don't have earned income credits, any type of government assistance, or any other program that is paid for via taxation.

What small amount they pay in sales tax, they get back and then some in EIC and assistance programs.

My post has nothing to do with thinking I'll be 'rich' one day, I'm perfectly happy where I am monetarily, Thank you. It has to do with who carries the heaviest tax burden, dollar for dollar, and who actually uses the programs that those tax dollars pay for.

If people who love to scream that the rich need to pay their 'fare share' stopped and looked at who actually uses those tax dollars, perhaps they may realize who is actually paying their fare share.


Actually, if you really want to know the taxes taken out of a person earning between 0 and 100k are far more important to them than the taxes taken out of the people above that. Mitt romney gets 20 million a year, and if he gets taxed at thirty percent he comes home with 14 million per year. That is still 140 times as much as a person earning 100k per year without taxes taken out. So yes the money that the middle and poor class pays in taxes is far more valuable to them than the money the rich pay in taxes.
 
Talk about overreaching! Didn't that councilwoman get a free phone?

I know you are trying to make a point, but I don't know which one is it.

The reason former commie countries have a flat tax is because it is what was "inherited" by the political class from the communists and in many former communist countries, the political class that was emerging under communism have become the leading class in today's politics. So of course they would maintain the same taxation.

Don't get me wrong. I am not saying that one form of taxation is better than the other. After all, numerous nations outside of communism had the flat tax. It is however the communists that made the flat tax a staple mark of their society.
 
She is completely stupid.
She is also completely at fault as a councilwomen for the financial problems that the city has.
She is just another worthless bureaucrat who is lousy at her job.
These idiotic political failures transcend political party lines everywhere.

She is completely liberal
She is a complete parasite
She is the face of the democrat party
 
i will answer yours the day you land on the planet earth. Come back to us, your make believe world seems to have made you very angry and bitter.

Angry? Bitter? Me?

My dear, I assure you I'm neither.

Anyway, thank you for answering my question...you DO believe your own convoluted logic.

Another example of your convoluted logic, eh?

Because you THINK (or, I should say...FEEL) taxes taken from one person are more or less important to that person than the taxes taken from another person...you, somehow in that convoluted mind of yours, think you are correct.

You are not.

Stupidity crosses party lines.

Then you'll have no problem showing an example of a republican in the past month saying that their area gave Obama the vote so he owes them federal money.

Seems Romney was right....again.

But unelectable! I'll bet that he had a secret plan for Detroit, also.

Ah, Michigan, the place where 'the trees are just the right height'!

He really loves Michigan....

So you feel taxes should be paid on the basis on how much they would feel them? That's rich......

Have you ever considered what one person does to earn their income is in no way equal to what someone else does to earn their income? Personal monetary investment, time investment, etc? Apparently, that has no value to you.

I can't even continue this post without laughing..... your complete lack of understanding of what business involves, applicable taxes and the value of working is just... just beyond intelligent comprehension.... :2rofll:
