@sdozer1990 yea, but the poorest guys that don't make anything work for the rich guy guy, The rich guy also USES the infrastructure more. But yea, i get your point on tax refunds for more then what a person paid in... that is retarded in the classic since and in the slag use. BTW i have no children nor am i married, why am i subsidizing those that do and use more pubic recourses?
This is fucken outrageous! Can you imagine if Democrats did something like this? It would be plastered all over Fox "News" and the Tea Party and other Republicans would use it to demonize the DNC. Simply atrocious.
Simply put the GOP lies too much, sucks too much, and breathes too much. The size of their asshole-ness is simply too much... At a time when Americans are paying less attention than ever to the truth...they contain the biggest villains in the history of the country...
GOP BUSTED! OMG! You go get em Cenk! .. Has anybody told the GOP that TYT just busted them!?!....When Cenk bust's somebody you know their in trouble! ..Is this the end of the GOP?
Damn, I thought there would be at least some personal differences in how they present their party's opinion, but they all sound like a bunch of parrots.
so wait the republicans are mad that Obama's bill will create 250,000 new jobs?? So if it want obvious before, it is not that they hope he country fails so they can regain power. to say that they are loathesome is a gross understatement.
The issue here is arrogance. America won the cold war yes, becuase the Soviets bankrupted themselves. What the USof A does not get is you bankrupted yourself as well. All empires collapse, fact is in the day of instant news, reality tv, you collapse quicker.
Wake up you may not think this but the US is the poorest country in the world, once that happens you collapse quicker. Hedge fund guy Tepper goes win/win the Fed will buy all the bad stuff, in the end WHO DO THEY SELL TO?
Thank you Cenk for again exposing my former party of its utter stupidity. The GOP might as well let frictionRx5 write their "talking points" that always end with "EPIC FAIL"
what I don't get is how much these characters love attention of any kind.... don't they expect someone notices their repeating the same talking point as the last guy?
It take plain, simple language to get through most. pointy headed liberals.
Now, do you dips understand, You spend too much, taxes too much and borrows too much. Let me rephrase it so that you might understand. You tax too much, you borrow too much and you spend too much.
If you can get a grasp on that message, you can fix it.
@IRRRVERN While you're enjoying your cup of tea, maybe you could think of some solutions to todays problems. A lot of the money spent by the gov't is to prevent and repair the damage done by big corporations at all levels of society. We wouldn't need the EPA, the USDA, the FDA, or any number of gov't agencies, if corporations acted socially responsible. But, they don't. They exploit the planet and everyone on it to the extent that they are allowed to. Liberals care about our fellow human beings
@IRRRVERN Mmm, liberals might have trouble undestanding that considering under Obama most people got a tax cut and no one seemed to care when conservatives spent trillions and deregulated to the point of collapse. Also, we wouldnt have to borrow so much if conservatives hadn't pushed us into senseless indefinite wars, refused to cut defense spending and defended tax cuts for the top 2% of the country. Just a thought.
@Fangtorn The wars and defense spending that you (and I do not agree) consider senseless are in fact the role of our federal government. The top 2% already pay a great deal more than their fair share of taxes. If you and I had to pay half of what they pay, we would both be screaming.
But we will never agree on any of this. You just go ahead and believe that which you chose. You call the wars senseless, but don't grasp Obama changing course and continuing both wars after he got the real intel.
@IRRRVERN We spend more then any other country combined on defense. To defend against who? Some desert tribesman in Afghanistan? The role of our federal government is not to get thousands of American soldiers killed in stupid wars and ceaseless occupations.
The rich may pay more, but 10% of my income affects me much more then 25% affects a millionaire. A millionaire can be taxed 25% and live a freaking fantastic life, but tax me at 25% and i'm fucked.
@Fangtorn So you are fucked, I am fucked and the rich guy is fucked. Why should the guy that is smarter than us, or works harder than us be punished? Flat tax is the fair way.
Where did I say anything about new intel? Read it again. Obama first laid his eyes on the same shit that Bush saw. Obama had an oh fuck moment and made the decission to fight the war. I don't like Obama at all, but I give him credit for making the big boy decission to protect the nation from you and I don't know what.
I don't see how you can say that the current administration is "taxing too much", considering that for the entirety of the Obama administration federal taxes have stayed at the record low rates set by the Bush administration. Even if you do consider current tax rates or post-tax cut expiration rates to be "too much", how would you describe the tax rates set under Reagan? "Way, way too much"?
If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it people will eventually come to believe it The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie and thus by extension the truth is the greatest enemy of the State

@yourmomdidsayyourean The GOP is the master of FALSE memes (aka lies) and making people believe them -- gullible, naive, ignorant people who call themselves "centrist" believe what they say.
@RaminHAL9001 Sadly there is no force required to lead the Befuddled herd that follow the GOP and their ilk, most people are conditioned to follow cults. Many are self inflicted victims of this from day one in school as it is designed to cull out the bright and creative to ridicule and scorn from the large and brutish. We've allowed generations of our kids to be beaten into submission and they now carry this into their daily lives as designed by originators of American schooling.
@yourmomdidsayyourean: " Many are self inflicted victims of this from day one in school as it is designed to cull out the bright and creative to ridicule and scorn from the large and brutish. We've allowed generations of our kids to be beaten into submission and they now carry this into their daily lives as designed by originators of American schooling." Sadly you are correct; that kind of thing is a HUGE part of the social control that has been utilized against us.
I have realized something. Free Market Capitalism is just as fake as Communism. It is an ideal that can;t be realized. Free market works perfect if people would know what is best. And they do to a certain point. people can easily be manipulated, and we see that today. Everybody knows Burger King is garbage and people could stop going to it, but somehow they manage to trick people into buying their products. People are not perfect, and that is why 100% free market Capitalism can't work.
lol What do they all get in one room and practice their speeches with each other? Who are they even taking to, a mostly empty Congressional floor that consists of their other buddies? And cspan. It's just an endless amount of BS from both parties but at least the dems mix it up a bit more.
Attack of the clones! That is some major plagiarism! 250, 000 jobs will be needed! Anybody, do you see the HELP WANTED SIGNS? Republicans don't want jobs?! 250,000 people will be hired, payed a decent wage, and given benefits. We sure don't want that when our unemployment rate is so high. We want people to stay out of work. Fuckin Republicans, if your fucked up private sector doesn't want to hire people than the GOV should!
@RoundSquareX So you are saying we should spend our tax dollars on jobs for people hired to spend our tax dollars? Government jobs are paid for by the tax payers. You want your taxes spent on hiring people to spend money? Not paying down the deficit or building roads? You're an idiot.
@mrejp1983 You're an idiot, we already have 100's of thousands of people who do just that in the government. Or else the tax money would just sit and not go anywhere, it is called administration, every business has one.
THESE ROBOTS ALL WORK FOR THE SAME EVIL, GREEDY CORPORATIONS AND MEGA-WEALTHY ELITES. THEY DO NOT REPRESENT YOU. DO NOT LET THEM FOOL YOU WITH SILLY WORDS LIKE SOCIALISM AND THE "FREE-MARKET"
yeah, free to fuck you over and take everything you have.
That one talking point doesn't even make sense if you think about it at all "They're gonna need 250,000 new government employees, just to spend the money."
But it's a perfect sentence to enrage republican voters: Spending? Government employees, whose JOB it is to SPEND OUR money? WTF?
Lol, but it doesn't make sense. Democrats don't just spend money to spend it. What are they gonna hire 250,000 people and send them all on shopping sprees?
lol, nothing like the reps being reps. like being caught in homosexual acts after telling everyone you're not gay and you are against it...whoops, that happened to the reps already. Its like... like enacting so much unnecessary spending and starting a war that should have been targeting the saudies but went to Iraq, only to find "silly heads, we didn't need to be here", causing a trillion dollar debt in. add in the unregulated works of our government and you get a whammy of a fuck up.
Do they not realize that the tax "hike" is simply the expiration of the old tax cuts. So it is a play on words. The average person would think the Democrats are hitting you with new, never seen before taxes, but they are actually only "increasing" taxes by letting the Bush tax cuts expire. That is a subtle, but deadly spin on the facts.
Yeah well I've been watching it for 2 years on cspan so it isn't news to me except for the part about the Koch lobbyist from Heritage writing it. I've believed that paid actors argument about the GOP since Reagan won a 2nd term. The guy could take credit for the sun rising and call it a trickle-down, star-wars, kill-all-unions effect. He could spin it any way he wanted in the same sentence.
The GOP is actually The Borg. One hive mind, spreading fear and tyranny throughout the galaxy, destroying everything and anything good in their path, LOL. "Resistance, is futile".
"The GOP is actually The Borg. One hive mind, spreading fear and tyranny throughout the galaxy, destroying everything and anything good in their path, LOL. "Resistance, is futile""
The GOP is actually the borg, the "universe is liberal communist utopia with gay sex and THEY AREN'T TAKING IT ANYMORE!!!" btw "Resistance is immoral!"\
If the data presented by SEIU, AFL-CIO and Teamsters some ten years ago what CBO, GAO and OCC reported are true, then what the labor unions and legislators are engaged in fraudulent acts of abrogation of fiduciary responsibility with premeditation, intent and malice to commit fiscal fraud against the American Tax Payer.
I find it amusing how the Republicans can't even say the talking points in their own way. Nah, they can't even get that creative so they just recite it word for word.
@fangorn23 the reason they do it is so they can drill the talking point into the people's brains, and get the pundits to repeat the same things... if you repeat it enough times people will start to believe it.
The only government attacking the poor and the seniors are the democratic coastal states, their democratic legilatures want to protect their unfunded pensions therefore they (Democrats) are cutting lunch money to the inner city children breakfast funds, cutting funding for senior real estate tax subsities, cutting funding for homecare to seniors, cutting funding for students. Remember these are coastal Democratic states, legislature are democratics they are the ones cutting, but no cut pension
Try reading the report 11705 August 2010 from Congressional Budget Office. Please remember Mr. Orzag, Mr. Obama's budget director left office after two years and produced no budget, zip, zero, nothing. He was too tired from bloging propaganda to produce a budget. But he charged the country $200K per year and will recieve $160K per year for life estimated $5-$7 million entitlement for doing nothing!
The latest projection by Congressional Budget Office report number 11705 August 2010 to United States Congress is the budget to be short more than $1.3 Trillion. (Greater Than $1,300,000,000,000) unpaid by government workers. Remember $1.3 Trillion is deficit spending, this is money the government needs to borrow over and above the $13 Trillion debt due this year!
Independent fact SEIU and AFL-CIO and Teamsters projected high default rates and unsustainable debt from Unfunded Liabilities based on pensions and entitlements. This goes back ten years. Take a look at their website, it was published as a chart with extrapolations from 1990's into 2000 and 2000 and beyond. Is that independent enough for you since the data comes from union sources.
Unfunded liabilities are pension and entitlements the Government Union workers gave themselves. These government workers enriched themselves by using debt instuments to bypass existing tax laws. Take a look at GASB report on inability for bond holders to assess risk of unfunded liabilities due to accounting irregularities at States and Local levels when they issue bonds to the open market.
Developers listened to Government Officials that predicted a migration of pensioner to warm climate. Too bad those Government Union people purchased the most expensive item in a humans life, not in Southern Cal, Az, NM, Texas or Florida, they jumped to Mexico. 9.9 million UnAmeircan Union Government workers didn't buy American,
Pork is a smaller cut than unfunded liabilities, pension and entitlement as well as salaries. But unfunded pension liabilities and entitlements will overwelm the system if it is not addressed. Congress knows this, the president knows this, governors know this, majors know this, even SEIU and AFL-CIO predicted this will happen 10 yrs ago. Taxation will not fix it. It's in the Trillions if the offbook accounting were taken out, CBO, GAO, OCC, GASB, SEIU and AFL-CIO know this is comming.
@myHome109 When you talk about unfunded liabilities, I assume you're not talking about Social Security and Medicare, which are mammoth-sized mandatory programs. I assume you're talking about government worker salaries and pensions, which last time I checked were a very small part of the federal government, and were considered discretionary spending.
Heck the World Bank IMF and United Nations even know about this migration of Government workers from USA to Mexico. The monitary transfer is so large it shows up on the Mexican GDP and world banking reports! Democratic Congress and President know about this migration of funds by Government Union workers, there are attendence records showing they attended the briefing!
FBI, CIA Factbook, Census, Mexican Census, AARP, SEIU and AFL-CIO websites and newsletters recommended taking government paid for pensions and retiring in Mexico, Panama, Columbia, Brazil. Mexican Census reported 9,900,000 (9.9 million) Union pensioner from USA. 9,900,000 x $60,000 per yrs = $594 Billion leaving United States with government union pensioner moving to Mexico alone. That's more than all the TARP spending to date, this is on going every year! Gov. Deadbeats. Congress Knows it!
Iraq war cost USA over 3 TRILLION USD, killing 1.3 Million women, men & children and occupying their country for Corporate/Israel profit. Afghanistan cost over 1 Trillion dollars with NO end in sight, NO money for health. Wall-Street bailed out with 23.7 TRILLION of YOUR tax money. 3 TRILLION went to Israel for FREE. Pentagon spends 1.8 TRILLION per year. But Tea Party IGNORES ALL THAT, they LOVE the Rich, they Attack Middle Class, Minority & the Poor. WTF?
I'm not GOP, I am Democrat. A life long Democrat. I am sick and tired of GOP and Democrats overspending on Government workers. Government workers are deadbeats and have made no sacrificies. Big talk and bigger lies.
@myHome109 What percent of the federal budget goes to paying salaries and pensions of govt workers? I dont know the answer off the top of my head; maybe you do. I mean, is this even worth talking about? Or is it like pork-barrel spending, which I thought was a big deal until I realized it amounted to less than one percent of federal spending?
If these were my students handing in an assignment I would give them an A: 90 points. The speech is molded in a way that establishes authority, appeals to emmotion, and appears to appeal to logic. I would take 10 points off for not quoting sources. I would then tell them to split the 90 points among all of them. Each of them would get like 3 pts and fail.
To the GOP: we wouldn't have to make a fucking sacrifice if you asshole didn't spend our social security surplus. Or make up the tax gap created by your fucking tax cuts for the top 3% of the country.
As for this video, as Yoda would say: "Begun the Clone War has."
10 friends eat at a restaurant a lot. The bill is $100. 4 of the friends don't pay anything because they don't make a lot. The rest pay progressively so the guy who makes the most pays the most. The owner lowers the bill to $80, because the guys eat there a lot. They divide the break, but some would get a refund. Instead the owner splits the break and gives more of a break to the richest friend. The rest complain that their break isn't enough, beat up the richest guy, and he leaves.
@sdozer1990 yea, but the poorest guys that don't make anything work for the rich guy guy, The rich guy also USES the infrastructure more. But yea, i get your point on tax refunds for more then what a person paid in... that is retarded in the classic since and in the slag use. BTW i have no children nor am i married, why am i subsidizing those that do and use more pubic recourses?
If you take into account business logistics and community needs, the upper classes demand less public services than everyone else does. If you think big business owners benefit too much from society, cut to the source of their profit, the failure of smaller businesses sometimes from regulation. Those failures send more fuel to the big engine, and less to the small engines, meaning less quality, less wages, and more corruption. Taxes are friction to the wheels, but are needed for roads.
@sdozer1990 so that owner of that company does not benifit from all the education his employees have? Or food stamps they collect so they have the energy to produce when working for peanuts? Or maybe he does nto see that his(all) busness(s) is(are) founded around or uses some technology that was created by research in a universtity or by a university grad? Or maybe they just feel too self entitled to see what society does for them, and how they have benifited from it more then others.
Let me try to make this simple, if Federal, State and Local government have to meet SEC rules on disclosure for issuance of debt to the market and Sarbaines Oxley, entire legislatures, many governors, city majors, county executives and the president would be spending long time in JAIL FOR ACCOUNTING FRAUD, interstate mail fraud, securities fraud, etc. etc. !!! Governments employees scam to enrich themselves using debt instuments bipassed standing tax disclosure laws.
I've never got whyt right wingers don't consider a quater million NEW JOBS new jobs if they're state work? the roads were built by 'government bureaucrats' as was the hoover damn, does that mean they weren't built?
Curse me all you want but you have no data to back up anything you've stated. The accounting for government worker is that of a deadbeat. Enriching yourselves with the use of debt instuments have pushed the deadbeat budget to the point of crisis. You still want to push these propaganda agenda. CBO, GAO, OCC are government agencies with presidential appointees, approved by congress, those accounts show Government Workers are deadbeats. IRS show small businesses and 56% Americans paid taxes.
Account's Payable (Where the DEADBEAT'S accounting lives!), CBO, GAO, OCC Treas, show government workers are deadbeats! Accounts Recievable (Where tax payers account live!) GEEE IT'S NET POSITIVE! Government workers account NEGATIVE, Tax Payers Account Positive! Who's the DEADBEAT. Please learn to read and know which side of the accounting column deadbeats belong! Government documents show your pensions and entitlement are in the deadbeat column of accounting! How?
I love that they say it's The Biggest Tax Increase In History AND The Middle Class Are Bearing the Burden.. well those are both true but it's the Biggest increase on the RICH and the Middle Class HAS BEEN bearing the burden forever... well, since the 30s..
ALL THE GOVERNMENT DOCUMENTS SHOW SMALL BUSINESSES IN AMERICA PAID THEIR TAXES AND PEOPLE MAKING $250,000 PER YEAR PAID 50% OF ALL TAXES IN AMERICA. 44% of Americans paid ZERO taxes, Most of those people are working for Government!
To the person who called me a liar. Please explain how government salary works. My understanding is 100% of government salaries comes from taxing the general public. GAO, CBO and OCC treasury are reports of government workers debt and deficit spending. The tax payer reports are at the IRS website, 50% of all taxes are paid by people making $250K per yr or more. Government employees average $60,000 per yr and pay ZERO taxes, opted out of FICA taxes, did not contribute pension or entitlement
There is nothing wrong with repetition when you are using independant facts, and especially when the Democrats are being disengenous when they talk about how they won't increase taxes, while in actuality, they have given us the largest tax increase in American history, the worst economic collapse since the 1920's, the weakest military in the past 100 years, and the largest national debt in US history. We need fiscal conservatism in the White House, and we need it now.
@tehant1liberal You're seriously a fucking idiot. Us democrats were really able to do that in a measely 2 years? I think you're talking about that idiot who ran the country into a toilet 8 years ago and flushed it when he left office (Bush). You honestly have no idea what you're talking about and if you would've seen democrats pull what those idiots pulled you would've said the exact opposite. You'd be all over their shit right now, you fucking racist white conservative prick.
@tehant1liberal What the hell does "independent facts" mean?
Also, if these were the glorious truths you so arrogantly claim them to be, why would they be pulled from the GOP's website? Also, you completely ignore the source of these facts: the so-called "Heritage Foundation", a think-tank with massive corporate backing. Also, did you bother to research these claims yourself? Both sides spin facts and twist the truth. it's up to YOU to find out the real truths.

It take plain, simple language to get through most. pointy headed liberals.
Now, do you dips understand, You spend too much, taxes too much and borrows too much. Let me rephrase it so that you might understand. You tax too much, you borrow too much and you spend too much.
If you can get a grasp on that message, you can fix it.

@IRRRVERN While you're enjoying your cup of tea, maybe you could think of some solutions to todays problems. A lot of the money spent by the gov't is to prevent and repair the damage done by big corporations at all levels of society. We wouldn't need the EPA, the USDA, the FDA, or any number of gov't agencies, if corporations acted socially responsible. But, they don't. They exploit the planet and everyone on it to the extent that they are allowed to. Liberals care about our fellow human beings
greenthumbguy1 1 year ago
@IRRRVERN Mmm, liberals might have trouble undestanding that considering under Obama most people got a tax cut and no one seemed to care when conservatives spent trillions and deregulated to the point of collapse. Also, we wouldnt have to borrow so much if conservatives hadn't pushed us into senseless indefinite wars, refused to cut defense spending and defended tax cuts for the top 2% of the country. Just a thought.
Fangtorn 1 year ago
@Fangtorn The wars and defense spending that you (and I do not agree) consider senseless are in fact the role of our federal government. The top 2% already pay a great deal more than their fair share of taxes. If you and I had to pay half of what they pay, we would both be screaming.
But we will never agree on any of this. You just go ahead and believe that which you chose. You call the wars senseless, but don't grasp Obama changing course and continuing both wars after he got the real intel.
IRRRVERN 1 year ago
@IRRRVERN We spend more then any other country combined on defense. To defend against who? Some desert tribesman in Afghanistan? The role of our federal government is not to get thousands of American soldiers killed in stupid wars and ceaseless occupations.
The rich may pay more, but 10% of my income affects me much more then 25% affects a millionaire. A millionaire can be taxed 25% and live a freaking fantastic life, but tax me at 25% and i'm fucked.

Even if you do consider current tax rates or post-tax cut expiration rates to be "too much", how would you describe the tax rates set under Reagan? "Way, way too much"?

Please remember Mr. Orzag, Mr. Obama's budget director left office after two years and produced no budget, zip, zero, nothing. He was too tired from bloging propaganda to produce a budget. But he charged the country $200K per year and will recieve $160K per year for life estimated $5-$7 million entitlement for doing nothing!

Independent fact SEIU and AFL-CIO and Teamsters projected high default rates and unsustainable debt from Unfunded Liabilities based on pensions and entitlements. This goes back ten years.

Unfunded liabilities are pension and entitlements the Government Union workers gave themselves. These government workers enriched themselves by using debt instuments to bypass existing tax laws. Take a look at GASB report on inability for bond holders to assess risk of unfunded liabilities due to accounting irregularities at States and Local levels when they issue bonds to the open market.

Pork is a smaller cut than unfunded liabilities, pension and entitlement as well as salaries. But unfunded pension liabilities and entitlements will overwelm the system if it is not addressed.

@myHome109 When you talk about unfunded liabilities, I assume you're not talking about Social Security and Medicare, which are mammoth-sized mandatory programs.

If you take into account business logistics and community needs, the upper classes demand less public services than everyone else does. If you think big business owners benefit too much from society, cut to the source of their profit, the failure of smaller businesses sometimes from regulation. Those failures send more fuel to the big engine, and less to the small engines, meaning less quality, less wages, and more corruption. Taxes are friction to the wheels, but are needed for roads.
