with $1.65 Trillion in tax subsidies for the wealthy!
America was founded on the principles of equality, justice, and liberty,
...you are not free if you can not afford to live because you are forced to subsidise Oil, Corporations, Multi-national Monopolies, Foreign Jobs, Banks, Wall Street Crooks, Trust-Fund-Babies & everyone in the "Lucky-Sperm-Club"
Corporate Tax Subsidies are destroying jobs in America!
@Shroommduke I never saw Weiner taking on obama on the subject of Jeffrey Imelt and General Electic. G.E. has been found guilty of defrauding the US govt, got away with paying ZILCH in taxes, ships jobs overseas, and yet Imelt sits at the head of the jobs council. 45% of the country has ZERO tax liability. Think they're subsidizing anyone? No, I'm subsidizing THEM. I could live better if EVERYONE got off the tit. You are FREE to earn a living or to seek a BETTER living. Not to get it from me.
What gets me is the Ryan bill is s-o-o-o-o transparent. Conservatives want to take the money saved from programs like medicare and give it to the rich in the form of tax incentives. How more obvious can their true motivation be?
@judyleasugar97 are you aware that 80% of capital gains belong to people making less than 100k a year? Eliminating the capital gains tax would greatly help the middle income earners. About 45% of capital gains belong to those making under 50k a year. I wonder what that extra money could mean for those people. I would rather have the Ryan plan! We all know that medicare and SS won't be there in 20 years so why keep lying to everyone and using TODAY'S seniors to block the solution? It's chicken.
@TheJoozie: Middle classers don't care about taxes. They are more concerned about jobs. Where are the jobs that were promised? Ten years of low taxes and the super rich STILL are not providing jobs.
@judyleasugar97 yes, middle income earners DO care about taxes. I have had years where I have earned MORE but taken home LESS because while I hit the higher brackets, I didn't go far enough over them to make up for the $ that was taken in taxes! I grow tired of the mantra of Bush tax cuts causing the country's woes. Unemployment by year: 2000-4.0%, 2001-4.7%, 2002-5.8%, 2003-6.0%, 2004-5.5%, 2005-5.1%, 2006-4.6%, 2007-4.6%, 2008-5.8%, 2009-9.3%, 2010-9.6%
@judyleasugar97 The Bush tax cuts were given to the entire country. And you don't remember the Bush stimulus checks mailed out to everyone? Everyone I know got checks! Not stimulus that went to corporations that raised money for a campaign, EVERYONE got them. You can find this info on US govt web sites.
And the SUPER RICH aren't the ones that provide the majority of jobs in the first place. I own a business and I stopped hiring as soon as obama decided to start treating us like criminals.
@TheJoozie: Wow. You think anyone gives a shit about that piddling amount of money Bush sent out to people? You think they wouldn't much rather have a stable economy and jobs right now?
@judyleasugar97 In fact, the healthcare bill forced me to change the structure of my employees all together. I no longer have "employees". I have independent contractors. My options were to either get rid of half of them or put them on independent status and let them handle their own taxes and healthcare. Now everyone is making even more $ than they did before but are strictly on production. Funny how that works huh? No hourly but more money! Imagine that!
@judyleasugar97 LOL universal health care isn't what it's cracked up to be. The democrats HAD the SUPER majority and didn't pass it. Why? Because there are DEMOCRATS that opposed it. Imagine that! But you were fed that the republicans were saying NOOOOO and holding it all up? They didn't even need to SHOW UP and the democrats could have passed anything they wanted.
@judyleasugar97 no comment about conservatives not DELIVERING jobs? The govt doesn't DELIVER jobs in the first place. I gave you the unemployment figures for the entire bush era. Unemployment is DOUBLE what it was in 2008. DOUBLE. No, I don't think anyone gives a shit about the $1000 they got from the govt but I do find it odd that they forget so quickly. At least the stimulus Bush gave out GOT TO THE PEOPLE. obama's? to corporations that raised funds for him and now is under investigation.
@judyleasugar97 NAFTA killed millions of jobs. obama care is killing hundreds of thousands of jobs. I'd rather have a job than govt dictated healthcare any day. Thankfully, I own a business that is in no danger of ever going under. But that was good planning on my part, not the govt deciding who will and won't succeed. Of course, no one else is capable of making those good decisions so they must be wards of the state and taken care of. right? LOL
@TheJoozie: Obamacare is not killing jobs. What is killing jobs is the company practice of sending jobs overseas. You were right about NAFTA, but that's all.
@judyleasugar97 and the "practice" of sending jobs overseas?? Do you believe that only in the last 10 years companies have been doing that? Liberals want a "world community", this is what you get! And if you have the second highest tax rate in the world for corporations, they're GOING to relocate to places like China. The CBO has a lovely report explaining this and all of the other ways the corporate tax structure and rate are causing problems. NAFTA opened the floodgates. Thanks Billy!
@TheJoozie: Also, I notice you didn't respond to my repeated question, where are the jobs conservatives promised? They ran on a platform of jobs. Where are they? They spend their time trying to crush women's rights.
@judyleasugar97 women's RIGHTS? LOL funny. Margaret Sanger created planned parenthood for the purpose of controlling the black population. Type into ANY search engine "The Negro Project". They didn't RUN on CREATING jobs. They ran on creating conditions that would allow for creation of jobs.. Mind you, republicans only control the house. Reid controls the senate. What about the super majority that democrats had for two years WITH a democrat president? oh yeah, 9.6%! $4.00 gas!
@judyleasugar97 The only people that create jobs are people that have a need or want to hire someone. If the government is going to "create" a job, it's going to have to be the one to hire the person for the job and pay him. No one can put a gun to my head and FORCE me to hire someone and until I get some certainty and favorable conditions, I will NOT resume hiring. See, I actually own a business so I can tell you first hand how I'm affected unlike 91% of obama admin. never working privately.
@judyleasugar97 what permanent jobs exactly did the government CREATE? government jobs? unemployment in the 30s is as follows: 1930-8.7%, 1932-23.6%, 1934-21.7%, 1936-16.9%, 1938-19.0%. Only when we went into WW2 did the depression of the 30s end. The govt involvement in the 30s caused the depression to last LONGER. We had a depressions before the "great depression" and we came out of it without govt "help". The longest of the previous was 24 months rather than 132 WITH govt "help">
@judyleasugar97 and yes, our infrastructure IS crumbling. We forked out / borrowed over 800 billion dollars to fix it! To give people jobs! Remember "shovel ready"??? Where did that money go????? It was in the hands of the democrats-super majority with a democrat president. And where did it go????? Bridges are falling apart, not enough border fence, still driving through pot holes, water quality is crap, electrical grid not updated for solar storm... where's the MONEY?
@judyleasugar97 So you own a business... did you hire someone in 2010 BECAUSE you were going to get a 5k tax credit? 5k isn't going to ease the burden of 50k salary... those that were going to hire in the first place did so and ended up with 5k in tax credit. Those who couldn't afford to hire someone even for 20k a year didn't run out and hire someone because they were going to get 5k. So we know THAT didn't work. Wasted stimulus money. And all under democrat control.
@judyleasugar97 and now.. for the 100th time, obama says NOW his priority is jobs. NOW? What about all the other times he said it? Was he lying THEN or NOW? And NOW he says its time to invest in our OWN nation building. NOW? What happened to over 800 billion dollars of our OWN nation building? Was he lying THEN or NOW? Fortune 500 companies got that stimulus money and we've got HIGHER unemployment. Thought democrats were "for the little guy" and anti corporate greed!
@TheJoozie: Will the Republican owned House and influenced Senate actually ALLOW him to do that? And who's ultimately responsible for the unemployment? Maybe the multi national corporations who are sitting on trillions of dollars? They could hire but they don't, despite all the lovely tax cuts they've been given for 10 years. Assholes.
@judyleasugar97 what part of the last 2 years did you miss? completely controlled by democrats in ALL areas. If his idea to create jobs is to spend more money, then no. The republican house will not allow it nor would a large portion of democrats. Republicans aren't the only ones not happy about 800+ billion dollars being flushed the first time around so they won't allow THAT to happen again. Baby crying. More later.
@TheJoozie: No, sorry. Both the house and Senate have problematic blue dog Democrats, corrupted by corporate money, trying to block everything Obama has tried to do for the middle class. And apparently now the Supreme Court is in the pocket of big business. But things may change at least in Congress in 2012.
@judyleasugar97 so now a blue dog is problematic? do they not represent people? are they not voted IN? don't you think that the people that vote for them feel that they represent their interests? This is why we have elections! You really think that congress is going to swing back to completely controlled by democrats? You're smoking some bad dope. What we have here is a new breed of politician. On one side we have the spend spend spend into oblivion with no results and on the other we have
@judyleasugar97 STOP spending ...and the results will fall as they may. If the economy recovers from not spending (which throughout history has been the case.. through ALL of our depressions) then great. If it doesn't recover from NOT spending, then we're not DEEPER in debt. I would HOPE that you run your business better than this frame of thought. You can't spend your way into prosperity. You can borrow to do some things that will help but if you're not smart with the money it's wasted.
@judyleasugar97 and wasted is exactly what happened to the stimulus money. Where are our shovel ready projects? Where is the infrastructure? The reason NO ONE will allow this to happen again is because with over 800 billion dollars ALREADY flushed down the toilet, how is anyone supposed to trust that ANOTHER 800 billion will go for what they said it would go to in the first place? No one blocked obama. He got his money and it went to fortune 500 companies. Look it up.
@TheJoozie: In the first place the stimulus prevented a great depression. Secondly, the money would go for infrasctructure. If the Republicons would get out of the fucking way.
@judyleasugar97 Actually, NO. it didn't PREVENT a "great depression". The govt tells us what unemployment is based on who's applying for benefits. We're actually at over 20%. Secondly, the money "would go for infrastructure"??? No. "would"??? No. The money WAS supposed to go for infrastructure, it has already been ALLOCATED and that was PRIOR to republicans taking control of ONLY ONE HOUSE. There's nothing to be in the way OF. I know it's comforting to place blame on people that had no control..
@judyleasugar97 but why don't you LOOK IT UP before making some ignorant comment like that. You can look up where the money went and WHEN it went. Republicans had nothing to do with it. Read something instead of listening to some pundit talking head. I notice you're able to find your way here to youtube to talk shit so you must be able to get to the government web site or a watch dog web site.
@judyleasugar97 and what money "would" go for infrastructure? The money that no one has dared ask for yet? You don't know what it would go for since no one has asked for it. And what happened to the money that was ALREADY supposed to go to infrastructure? SHOVEL READY! Face it, this administration fucked up. The problem here is I have no doubt that you bitched about Bush and the spending (rightly so) but now it's obama it's suddenly ok? Squandered nearly a trillion dollars! SQUANDERED.
@judyleasugar97 here's the comedy. out ALL that stimulus, only 48 billion of it was given to the dept of transportation. To FIX our infrastructure, we would need about 200 billion a YEAR for some time. Instead, we forked out BILLIONS to unemployed, welfare, and other entitlements. I'm not going to question the why of it because I know the why... more votes from increasing low income. But if I was in charge of the money, I would have taken every dime away from every able bodied MAN ...
@judyleasugar97 and put him to work on the infrastructure projects. Not allowing a guy to sit around and collect unemployment for 99 weeks. Should have put that money into paycheck form. But what do I know.. it's just wrong to make people work. LOL Oh well... national debt up 25% or more now. I wonder who's gong to pay that bill... our grandkids will be speaking mandarin. thank God some of my family already does.
@judyleasugar97 hey Judy.. just wondering if you've gotten the news about the treaty obama is going to sign in Rio next year to "feed the world" and be "green" about it. 73 TRILLION dollars. to "developing" countries. China is "developing" with the 2nd largest economy in the world. Think they need the money? And OUR share of that, since we pay 22% of the entire UN budget will be just under 17 TRILLION. I guess we better start working harder, huh?
@judyleasugar97 LMFAO "you people" the way YOU PEOPLE argue is to call someone a racist, a bigot, an idiot, a teabagger... come on. The subject that you and I have been talking about is the spending. I think adding another 17 trillion onto our backs is a valid concern. So then go back to the subject JUDY. Where's the jobs? Where's the 800 billion? Where's the infrastructure that was PROMISED the FIRST "stimulus"? Of course, you don't bother to read about it. You point a finger blindly.
@judyleasugar97 so please, in all of your wisdom and insight into obama's true intentions.. why 48 billion to infrastructure? Where's the SHOVEL READY jobs? More money went to entitlements and union bail outs than to our INFRASTRUCTURE which is what obama pitched to US the American people. I didn't think it would turn out the way he said it would but I had HOPE that it would. So now that it's down the toilet, why continue to sing his praises?
@judyleasugar97 I disagreed with MOST of what Bush did but just because the new guy ISN'T Bush doesn't suddenly make his bad decisions BETTER. Spending is spending and if you're against it, you're against it. War is war and if you're against it, you're against it. Not liberals though... it's about WHO delivers the message rather than the message and policy itself. so go ahead and snipe away. You're a hypocrite and you know it. This is a failure and Bush is gone. Time to look at reality.
@judyleasugar97 I'll wait while you find some shitty remark to avoid answering the questions about the stimulus money. I'll wait while you figure out, try to justify and spin why it is that the golden obama has Jeffrey Imelt as head of his jobs council when his HUGE corporation GENERAL ELECTRIC paid zero income taxes on billions of dollars and continues to ship jobs overseas. Is THAT a republican's fault as well? Are you not able to see the problem here with your OWN ideology and obama?
@judyleasugar97 in the meantime, keep watching MSNBC on your CHINESE television. Keep driving your JAPANESE car. Keep wearing your T-shirt made in Indonesia and your shoes made in Taiwan. And then keep on bitching about American wages going down because of cheap labor elsewhere while you enjoy the price you paid for all of these thins because you damned sure wouldn't be able to buy them if they WERE made here.
@TheJoozie: What? I never said I didn't object to jobs being shipped overseas. And I would be willing to pay a little more for goods if they were MADE IN THE USA. I love my country and it's going down the toilet because of corporate greed. They are destroying their own consumer base.
@judyleasugar97 Corporate greed is such a sweet talking point. It's easy to label corporations as greedy for wanting the most profit possible but that blanket doesn't fit over every corporation. I am incorporated and while my goal is to make the MOST money possible, I'm not greedy. Large corporations have shareholders which provide a lot of income to people's 401k programs and investment portfolios. So tax them more which will bring DOWN the profit to shareholders/401k?
@judyleasugar97 And the HUGE pay the CEOs get... how DARE they! Yeah? Well, when you're in charge of billions of dollars, how much should you earn? It's a huge responsibility! Shouldn't it have huge pay? We have the 2nd highest corp. tax rate in the world. And THAT is why business leaves. Not because of piddly wages. Yet I'm still wondering how Imelt got in there. HE'S one of those "fat cats" that liberals hate, isn't he? G.E. has been convicted of defrauding the govt about a dozen times...
@judyleasugar97 paid zero income tax on billions, ships jobs overseas, is in pocket of govt on the "green" technology getting subsidies for their efforts while forcing people to buy what they don't want... does any of that make any sense to you? Honestly, does it? Do you honestly believe that you're incapable of making your own sound decisions? We impose huge taxes on our own businesses but let REAL foreign companies import damned near for free while they tax the hell out of our exports. WTF?
@judyleasugar97 its' called REDISTRIBUTION. And they've openly said it. Yet for SOME reason, people choose not to hear it. Why? Is it that you (not you personally) can't imagine that it could not possibly be the case? And the "share the wealth" or "fair share" concepts are great! But how is it sharing when something is taken from one to be doled out to another by force? I share quite a lot and it's my choice. I don't need the govt doing it for me and the more they do, the less I give freely.
@judyleasugar97 would you consider yourself "fortunate"? or would you say you worked hard for what you have? I know money didn't drop into MY lap from the sky. I have been able to keep about half of what I have earned putting in ALL of the effort while others have put in zero effort and have received half of my laboring. Is that me paying my fair share? What did the ones that got my money (and yours) share of themselves?
@judyleasugar97 the bottom line here is MANY politicians have "shared" in "corporate greed". It's not split down party lines nor is it majoritivly split. But if you're going to hate it, hate it no matter WHERE it comes from and don't fall for and love the teleprompter reader because he TELLS you something... look at the actions. Then vote for a TRUE american that isn't in pocket no matter what party he/she is labeled as.
"Convince the American people on that". Weaner's like "[Um, yea, I just did]" lolz man Weiners the least wishy washy guy i can think of who has a strong voice in politics, for that i applaud him
Wow, SS never contributed a penny to the deficit and is funded at this point for the next 26 years. You want to sure up SS? Remove the tax cap of about 100k so that everyone pays the same percentage.
I remember Reagan raising taxes 3 times to shore up SS for the boomers. The $2.5 trillion surplus those tax increases created were spent as tax cuts for the wealthy. Now that the boomers have begun to retire, the Republicans don't want to pay that money back. Their answer is to provide more tax cuts for the wealthy and to cut our SS benefits? What do you think we are Republicans? Stupid?
You want to make more jobs? Okay, wait an extra month for your new $125,000 Lexus, or don't take a 3 week Golfing trip in Scotland this year. Problem fucking solved, morons.
I love the term "job creators" as if the jobs aren't there because business owners need work done for them. They actually consider the most wealthy the saints of our country.
Trickle down works best when it's financial hardship trickling down.
Profit equals revenue minus expenses. Jobs are an expense; taxes are an expense. The whole idea of large corporate tax rates is to encourage corporations to create jobs (ie increase expenses) to lessen their tax burden (smaller profits that won't by paid out in taxes). Other ancillary benefits: smaller bonuses to management thanks to less profit, more money going into R&D rather than the CEOs pocket, more domestic jobs since cost cutting overseas is no longer worthwhile. Just a thought...
I don't have medicare, but I am on medica. I have asthma, schizophrenia, depression, and so much more. It's pretty hard to live and guess what else. I DON"T HAVE THE MONEY TO PAY FOR EXPENSIVE ASS PILLS. My dad left when I was little and doesn't pay child support. My mother has no college education, but works hard as hell and still makes almost nothing. The people who want to get rid of medicare and medica are fucking assholes who just want to keep more money that they don't need. Greedy!
@tf2weekly I'm not sure if you've got a full grasp on things. NO ONE is saying that people that are in need of medical treatment and is INCAPABLE of providing it for themself will go without treatment. The voucher system for medicare allow people to shop for their insurance and doctor. The Ryan plan gives people the SAME options that congress has. Obamacare doesn't which is why no one in congress wanted it for their OWN family.
@tf2weekly I'm not a fucking asshole that is greedy and wants to keep more money that I don't need but I'm smart enough to know that medicare is shit, doesn't cover a multitude of things, pays very little and is one of the factors that are sucking us dry. Why continue to tax me to death to pay for something that isn't going to be around when I retire? I'd gladly forfeit HALF of what I pay into it now with no expectation of getting it back so it can just finish it's current obligations.
Wow, I'm Canadian, and this week we had our party leader's election debate. Jeb Hensarling just preached, nearly word for word, Prime Minister Harper's debate arguments. "Their tax hike will destroy jobs, and ruin our fragile economy... We'll (magically) lower taxes AND fund healthcare."
He even has the same hairdo and headbobbing speech as Harper.
@spinewreck I was thinking the same thing while watching, the two of them could be brothers. Though Stephen Harper has a far worse case of evil zombie eyes.
The RWer seem to repeat himself as if he actually had anything constructive to come with.
Who are these socalled job creators?
How many jobs did the biggest contributors actually create when Bush gave them a huge tax cut at the expence of 500 000 veterans? How many jobs have these tax cuts created for 220 000 homeless vets?
How will a another tax cut benefit middle class people in their retirement?
~~> Convince the Amerian People of that... That statement is very telling... With all the propagandist media it would be hard to cut through the bullspit...
Thatz what I'm doing... Kudos Rep Weiner... Your a stand up dude...
@sparkyj99 This is very true. Also, my view is that the working class doesn't have the time to sift through horse shit on c-span until they find something like what this asshole is so in reality, the sad thing is, that it is probably correct. I wish more people knew how fucked up that is.
@tf2weekly ~~> I wish more people wanted to know the whyz & howz of it all... Like if a corporation is making record profits WHY they need more tax breaks... Or if trickle down is supposed to make for a better middle class WHY isn't that happening & HOW long do they expect US to survive till we're trickled on??
Social Security is not solvent. New congressional estimates say the trust fund that supports Social Security disability will run out of money by 2017, leaving the program unable to pay full benefits, unless Congress acts. About two decades later, Social Security’s much larger retirement fund is projected to run dry as well. It's time to REFORM ALL GOVERNMENT ASSISTANT PROGRAMS NOW -- ELSE WE LOSE THEM! How about the first step to get millionaires off SS and Medicare?
It's amazing how Republicans can say that small businesses are the engine of job creation out of one side of their mouth, and then say that cutting taxes for millionaires are going to crush job creation.
Why does that snake keep laughing at Weiner? I wanted to punch my screen. When he said that a tax increase will lose jobs, I was screaming.. I'm losing my voice..
@OdinLowe Sorry, but I would have to be a snake in order to cannibalize him. And even if I was a snake, I wouldn't slither all the way from Canada to Washington to eat something as disgusting as him.
Who are these people at the top 1% of the United States whom the GOP work exclusively for? If your portfolio doesn't fit within video listed below, your voting against your own best interest!
I like it how he very coyly says he's [Jeb] cutting taxes for the job makers, when what he means is that he's giving tax cuts to the wealthy who already got one from Bush. Really makes me think about how some representatives use their brain.
Whenever someone starts saying that Republican crap with no basis in reality, and Weiner is nearby, I just smile knowing that he's going to get pummelled.
Its amazing how many lies Jeb Hensarling releases from his mouth in this clip. Unbelievable that he is trying to say Social Security is a part of the debt.
Previous to Bush tax-cuts America had the highest tax rates in history? I suppose you really needn't any facts if your followers don't care to check for them.
i think Weiner wasn't clear enough with this Hanserling guy! he should have called things by their name and told the people watching that Hanserling and the GOP are LIEING! because they are in deed!
this was the weakest Weiner interview i have ever seen - but although he wasn't at his hight today, it atill was a decent interview...
nevertheless, i think the conservative lier was a bit more convincing and in the end, that's unfortunately all that counts. :(
@boricuamm707 Because Obama is the incumbent, already officially running in 2012, and is going to win.
Why else do you think Republicans are so incredibly hesitant to officially announce their campaigns? There were 17 candidates officially running by the end of FEBRUARY in 2007 for the 2008 presidential campaign. Obama is going to win and they know it, and nobody wants to step up and be the sacrificial lamb of the GOP to lose to him.
@bsphil I think with the amount of hate people have for Obama that if there was a strong progressive candidate like Weiner, there could be strong chance of another candidate winning the primaries.
Too bad Obama isn't more like Weiner.

@judyleasugar97 In fact, the healthcare bill forced me to change the structure of my employees all together. I no longer have "employees". I have independent contractors. My options were to either get rid of half of them or put them on independent status and let them handle their own taxes and healthcare. Now everyone is making even more $ than they did before but are strictly on production. Funny how that works huh? No hourly but more money! Imagine that!

@judyleasugar97 LOL universal health care isn't what it's cracked up to be. The democrats HAD the SUPER majority and didn't pass it. Why? Because there are DEMOCRATS that opposed it. Imagine that!

@judyleasugar97 no comment about conservatives not DELIVERING jobs? The govt doesn't DELIVER jobs in the first place. I gave you the unemployment figures for the entire bush era. Unemployment is DOUBLE what it was in 2008. DOUBLE. No, I don't think anyone gives a shit about the $1000 they got from the govt but I do find it odd that they forget so quickly. At least the stimulus Bush gave out GOT TO THE PEOPLE. obama's? to corporations that raised funds for him and now is under investigation.

@judyleasugar97 NAFTA killed millions of jobs. obama care is killing hundreds of thousands of jobs. I'd rather have a job than govt dictated healthcare any day. Thankfully, I own a business that is in no danger of ever going under. But that was good planning on my part, not the govt deciding who will and won't succeed. Of course, no one else is capable of making those good decisions so they must be wards of the state and taken care of. right? LOL

@TheJoozie: Obamacare is not killing jobs. What is killing jobs is the company practice of sending jobs overseas. You were right about NAFTA, but that's all.

@judyleasugar97 women's RIGHTS? LOL funny. Margaret Sanger created planned parenthood for the purpose of controlling the black population. Type into ANY search engine "The Negro Project".

@judyleasugar97 The only people that create jobs are people that have a need or want to hire someone. If the government is going to "create" a job, it's going to have to be the one to hire the person for the job and pay him. No one can put a gun to my head and FORCE me to hire someone and until I get some certainty and favorable conditions, I will NOT resume hiring. See, I actually own a business so I can tell you first hand how I'm affected unlike 91% of obama admin. never working privately.

judyleasugar97 8 months ago
@judyleasugar97 what permanent jobs exactly did the government CREATE? government jobs? unemployment in the 30s is as follows: 1930-8.7%, 1932-23.6%, 1934-21.7%, 1936-16.9%, 1938-19.0%. Only when we went into WW2 did the depression of the 30s end. The govt involvement in the 30s caused the depression to last LONGER. We had a depressions before the "great depression" and we came out of it without govt "help". The longest of the previous was 24 months rather than 132 WITH govt "help">

@judyleasugar97 and yes, our infrastructure IS crumbling. We forked out / borrowed over 800 billion dollars to fix it! To give people jobs! Remember "shovel ready"??? Where did that money go?????

TheJoozie 8 months ago
@judyleasugar97 So you own a business... did you hire someone in 2010 BECAUSE you were going to get a 5k tax credit? 5k isn't going to ease the burden of 50k salary... those that were going to hire in the first place did so and ended up with 5k in tax credit. Those who couldn't afford to hire someone even for 20k a year didn't run out and hire someone because they were going to get 5k. So we know THAT didn't work. Wasted stimulus money. And all under democrat control.

@judyleasugar97 and now.. for the 100th time, obama says NOW his priority is jobs. NOW? What about all the other times he said it? Was he lying THEN or NOW? And NOW he says its time to invest in our OWN nation building. NOW? What happened to over 800 billion dollars of our OWN nation building? Was he lying THEN or NOW? Fortune 500 companies got that stimulus money and we've got HIGHER unemployment. Thought democrats were "for the little guy" and anti corporate greed!
TheJoozie 8 months ago
@TheJoozie: Will the Republican owned House and influenced Senate actually ALLOW him to do that? And who's ultimately responsible for the unemployment? Maybe the multi national corporations who are sitting on trillions of dollars? They could hire but they don't, despite all the lovely tax cuts they've been given for 10 years. Assholes.

@judyleasugar97 what part of the last 2 years did you miss? completely controlled by democrats in ALL areas. If his idea to create jobs is to spend more money, then no.

Republicans aren't the only ones not happy about 800+ billion dollars being flushed the first time around so they won't allow THAT to happen again. Baby crying. More later.

@TheJoozie: No, sorry. Both the house and Senate have problematic blue dog Democrats, corrupted by corporate money, trying to block everything Obama has tried to do for the middle class.

TheJoozie 8 months ago
@judyleasugar97 STOP spending ...and the results will fall as they may. If the economy recovers from not spending (which throughout history has been the case.. through ALL of our depressions) then great. If it doesn't recover from NOT spending, then we're not DEEPER in debt. I would HOPE that you run your business better than this frame of thought. You can't spend your way into prosperity. You can borrow to do some things that will help but if you're not smart with the money it's wasted.
TheJoozie 8 months ago
@judyleasugar97 and wasted is exactly what happened to the stimulus money. Where are our shovel ready projects? Where is the infrastructure? The reason NO ONE will allow this to happen again is because with over 800 billion dollars ALREADY flushed down the toilet, how is anyone supposed to trust that ANOTHER 800 billion will go for what they said it would go to in the first place? No one blocked obama. He got his money and it went to fortune 500 companies. Look it up.

@TheJoozie: In the first place the stimulus prevented a great depression. Secondly, the money would go for infrasctructure. If the Republicons would get out of the fucking way.

@judyleasugar97 Actually, NO. it didn't PREVENT a "great depression". The govt tells us what unemployment is based on who's applying for benefits. We're actually at over 20%. Secondly, the money "would go for infrastructure"??? No. "would"??? No. The money WAS supposed to go for infrastructure, it has already been ALLOCATED and that was PRIOR to republicans taking control of ONLY ONE HOUSE. There's nothing to be in the way OF. I know it's comforting to place blame on people that had no control..

TheJoozie 8 months ago
@judyleasugar97 here's the comedy. out ALL that stimulus, only 48 billion of it was given to the dept of transportation. To FIX our infrastructure, we would need about 200 billion a YEAR for some time. Instead, we forked out BILLIONS to unemployed, welfare, and other entitlements. I'm not going to question the why of it because I know the why... more votes from increasing low income. But if I was in charge of the money, I would have taken every dime away from every able bodied MAN ...

@judyleasugar97 so please, in all of your wisdom and insight into obama's true intentions.. why 48 billion to infrastructure? Where's the SHOVEL READY jobs? More money went to entitlements and union bail outs than to our INFRASTRUCTURE which is what obama pitched to US the American people. I didn't think it would turn out the way he said it would but I had HOPE that it would. So now that it's down the toilet, why continue to sing his praises?

@judyleasugar97 I disagreed with MOST of what Bush did but just because the new guy ISN'T Bush doesn't suddenly make his bad decisions BETTER.

@judyleasugar97 I'll wait while you find some shitty remark to avoid answering the questions about the stimulus money.

judyleasugar97 7 months ago
@judyleasugar97 Corporate greed is such a sweet talking point. It's easy to label corporations as greedy for wanting the most profit possible but that blanket doesn't fit over every corporation. I am incorporated and while my goal is to make the MOST money possible, I'm not greedy. Large corporations have shareholders which provide a lot of income to people's 401k programs and investment portfolios. So tax them more which will bring DOWN the profit to shareholders/401k?

Profit equals revenue minus expenses. Jobs are an expense; taxes are an expense. The whole idea of large corporate tax rates is to encourage corporations to create jobs (ie increase expenses) to lessen their tax burden (smaller profits that won't by paid out in taxes). Other ancillary benefits: smaller bonuses to management thanks to less profit, more money going into R&D rather than the CEOs pocket, more domestic jobs since cost cutting overseas is no longer worthwhile. Just a thought...
