Tea Party Republican Debate Question #6: How Much Of My Pay Check Should I Be Allowed To Keep?

[corywilkinson1]

So i think that kid owned all of them with his simple but well spoken sarcastic yet truthful question 

[zutanonm]

So the answer to how much should I keep is???????? WTF???

[engine2truck6]

Cain sucks. Federal Reserve Statist FAKE Tea Party FOX lap-dog.

[alteregoash]

I'm sorry, what the hell was gingrich's answer?

[Warpath2198]

This is not the 1970s. We get most of our oil from Canada/Mexico and Venezuela.

[Warpath2198]

As for taxing corporations I have a news flash for you idiots. Companies don't pay taxes YOU DO. You raise taxes on companies you just get people laid off and raised your price of goods and services. Stop being idiots.

[Warpath2198]

LOL@ the liberal haters. The "Rich" are the $250,000 tax bracket aka small business owners which are one of the biggest employers in the nation.

[dellboy99]

These cunts are all a bunch of corporate lackeys. They cut taxes on the rich and the middle class pays more and that even happened under Reagan. So fuck the right wing scum they are destroying America. The truth is we have no real democracy in the USA just one bunch of corrupt scum v another bunch of corrupt scum.

[MERCILESSPIT]

@RicardoClaro Sure, keep telling yourself that and one day even you will believe it.

[BBCater]

@RicardoClaro Are you f-king KIDDING me? We are FOURTEEN TRILLION in DEBT for WHAT? Social Programs. What is the Constitutional charge of the Federal Government of the United States..? To PROTECT its citizens. That would be the MILITARY. NOT "school lunches" or "welfare" or "infrastructure" or any of the other BALDERDASH that you liberals cannot COMPREHEND is NOT the job of the Federal Government. STATE'S RIGHTS - the 10th Amendment - will handle that... if only Washington will allow it to work.

[inrwizards]

stupid companies that benefit from wars (the arms manufacturing industry) and government handouts (every fucking company in America prostituting themselves for corporate welfare) are making deals with Fox News and other Media outlets 2 pretend Ron Paul doesn't exist. Well, you can't get 2 us, fuckers! The Internet is bigger than any of u and it knows Ron Paul is the future!

[JebBlack2010]

Ron Paul was skipped again but i'm guessing his answer would've been "All of it" Taxation is theft.

[MERCILESSPIT]

@RicardoClaro Sure, and the left doesn't... tool.

[mvoress]

I would've loved to hear Herman Cain's rebuttal to what Romney had to say about the Fair Tax. I also would have loved to hear the other candidates' positions. The woman's question was for everyone, but because Wolf doesn't like the Fair Tax, he selected only one candidate to respond (who he knew would eloquently oppose it).

[OnTheGoMobile]

Huntsman:.."In the state of Utah... we wipe with our left hands..really" Gignrich: "I hate Obama, you should too, I know the problems.. but have no long term solutions" Romney: "I just made this Sh!t up"

[Freedom21stCenturi]

If I could keep 90% of what I made here in Canada i'd probably start a business ASAP.

[Freedom21stCenturi]

most of these responses were hard to stomach

[IMurderdTheDevil]

Newt Gignrich has beaten EVERYBODY at this debate.

[jdcasey9]

Everyone always complains about honesty and principles in government, well Ron Paul only has a few more good years left, let's make sure that we take advantage of that.

[killercro55over]

RON FUCKING PAUL. And for people that say his beliefs are unorthodox and or extreme, its called TRUTH and HONESTY. i know its sounds crazy because we haven't heard any of that from a politician in a long time.

[IdidnotFartedIswear]

If 10% of your income is good enought for GOD, Ron Paul wants only 9%.

Ron Paul knows best. Defender of the constitution.

[TranceBrotherhood]

@IdidnotFartedIswear Funny because I remember Herman Cain saying that in the last debate.

[frogman92981]

they should have let ron paul answer the first question he would ve said 90%

[frogman92981]

lol newt rocks sometimes!!!!

[princez413]

A whole lot of company's have lobbyist on the hill and each and every one of these people will have their hands open, except for Ron Paul.

[arion45]

So the answer is you get to keep 75% and be happy that the overloards do take more. Rmember you work for the government not the other way around.

[pexex90]

Romney, let's put food on our table first before we can start living off dividends.

[acidjack73]

Why is it whenever Republicans talk about "energy independence" their always talking about expanding the oil industry? They're trying to give us typewriters when we want computers. Wake up, GOP, and join the future of alternative energy. More jobs. More potential. More independence. Period.

[ptrdo]

IOW, young man, you are probably keeping nearly all of your paycheck, so who is making society function for you?

[ptrdo]

Answer: Young man, you keep most of your paycheck because you are young and not earning much, but you & your generation have already needed good schools & teachers, safe roads, first responders, research science & hospitals, jails & justice, armies of soldiers, and many other ingredients that make up a society where people can be successful. But someday, young man, it will be your turn to pitch-in for all the advantages that have been afforded you. THAT is the fairness that makes a society work.

[shonjuan11]

LOL, lower the capital gains tax on middle-class Americans! That would save us. What a joke Romneybot.

[shonjuan11]

Has Newt EVER answered the question asked of him? That's his schtick!

[ariuszarim]

Fair tax is VAT for the US. What kind of person would want that?

[ariuszarim]

Can't get from an is to an ought. Having a paycheck says nothing about what should be done with it. His question missed the point. A better question would have bee "What is the governments claim to any of my paycheck ?" Kids today, they don't know nothin'.

[peekaboo2u]

THERE IS AN ABSOLUTE ATTEMPT TO SILENCE RON PAUL...

TOTAL BS

RON PAUL HAS MORE TO OFFER THAN THESE POLITICAL HACKS

[andrewclunn]

What was up with the fair tax question. It seemed like something was going on that we weren't seeing, and they quickly moved on.

[jedirich04]

Why oh why didn't they allow Ron Paul to answer the question about the FED???

[jmehyland]

Correct answer???? You "Deserve" to keep all of it. The government must take a portion of it. I just wish they would realize that and keep what they feel they must take to a minimum

[uk6strings]

Great simple question, kid - let's see how the candidates answer....

Huntsman: Dodged it.

Gingrich: You get more of your $ - but I like taxes

Holy sh!t - that's all that gets to answer the question? Get Ron Paul in there! He'll answer the kid's question - "How much of my money should I be able to keep?" ALL OF IT!!!!!!!

[Rsd79]

@uk6strings

How did Huntsman dodge it? He said 8%, 14% and 24%, If you used your critical thinking skills you could realize that 8%, 14% and 24% is 0.08$, 0.14$ and 0.24$ of every 1.00$

[oceanbnd]

I just saw a GREAT lawn sign for Ron Paul....Your t.v. LIES, UTUBE RON PAUL...hahahahaha Gonna buy that one for my lawn.

[Tripp393]

Raising income to catch up with gov't sounds awesome, though.

[hvmalo]

direct question from kid: how much of my paycheck should i be allowed to keep?

indirect answer from politician: cobwebs debt tax yada yada yada and so forth..

kid 1, politician -0

[GLICKTON]

i see Ron Paul is being ignored again, maybe because hes the only genuine candidate who doesnt encourage people to bury their heads in the sand, end the wars or your finished america!

[Dan474834]

Jon Huntsmna wants to lower corporate tax from 35% to 25%. Yet companies have the option of moving to countries where they pay 0%. Sounds competitive.

Ron Paul is the only good option.

[VennomX32]

6:10 Ron Paul finally gets his turn crap gotta look for #7.

[Vyna80]

I just found out that Mitt Romney's first name is Willard...o_O

[variablestatus]

Total of 219,221 votes - google firstread msnbc polls 9/7 GOP. 9/11 results.

Ron Paul 58.7%(128,760 votes) Mitt Romney14%(30,685 votes) Rick Perry11.8%(25,956 votes) JohnHuntsman5.9%(12,962 votes) Newt Gingrich3.9%(8,631 votes) Herman Cain2.9%(6,344 votes) Michele Bachmann1.8%(3,910 votes) Rick Santorum0.9%(1,973 votes)

[Rsd79]

@variablestatus

Ignoring the Anomaly in this non-scientific poll, Huntsman seems to be gaining ground to be 3rd place.

[Solaris2291]

@iplz You think that cesspool of knuckle dragging tea-baggers are Ron Paul supporter??? wrong!

[irock1839]

You can hear the jeers at the beginning of this video from Ron Paul supporters not happy that they changed the subject from the Fed without letting him weigh in.

[HumbleWillis]

Romney is flatly wrong regarding the Fair Tax. I am a "middle american" and I've calculated my taxes ... and I'd keep A LOT more of my own money under the Fair Tax. I'm kind of compulsive about running numbers and I ran all the numbers, and at every tax bracket you end up saving more money under the fair tax.  Everyone pays their own fair share. EVERYONE.

[lattyway]

@YoungAndPrepping  would make a terrible commander-in-chief

[AWarWithoutEnd]

If you Republicans seriously want to challenge Obama,

Huntsman would be your best choice.

[lattyway]

@AWarWithoutEnd Thats just not a sane thought

[Empty0Set]

"Out of every dollar that I earn"

Most of us don't *earn* any of it.

"How much do I deserve to keep."

We're all sinners, we all *deserve* death.

[TheClownCentral]

Its so sad to see all these Ron supporters being paid to leave positive comments. Is he that desperate already? hahahaha

[ronetqsm]

@TheClownCentral Nice try Troll. Ron Paul 2012, comment FREE OF CHARGE, for you.

[irock1839]

@TheClownCentral Paid to comment on Youtube? I wish, I'd be a millionaire. You're going to see exactly how desperate he is when he knocks it out of the fucking ballpark during the primaries.

[ritsb]

Jon Huntsman or Ron Paul. The rest will be a disaster

[Loltochapel]

If Ron Paul is elected, I guarantee progressives will back them up. I will be one of them.

[WesSeid]

Oh, Newt, your debate answers are quite good, if only I had faith that you aren't a RINO in sheep's clothing.

Even at that, you'd still be behind Ron Paul, though. Ron Paul FTW.

[YoureGoingDownFed]

RON PAUL for Freedom ! ! ! !

[YoureGoingDownFed]

the "Awwwwwww"s at the beginning are in response to Romney saying that the Fed is "more transparent than the Congress."

WRONG AGAIN MIT.... AT LEAST you KNOW WHO YOU REALLY WORK FOR...

[WesSeid]

@YoureGoingDownFed Ron Paul says the CIA is more transparent than The Fed.

[moua64]

The woman asking the executive order question CLEARLY has no clue on what an executive order is. She's probably asking the question just to ask a question she has no clue about.

[bigslick83]

"I favor people who produce energy"

ideologically flawed? Equality+Peace=Freedom

Do the math.

[macroevolve]

Those people in cincinatti were stupid and acting like kids. They wouldn't let hjer ask a question. :D

[emcgrotty]

I called CNN after the debate to ask where the Debate Poll was. A kind lady from CNN told me that it was at the Bottom of their Home Page Under "Quick Vote". I told her that the question under the section "Quick Vote" on their home page said: "Did Rick Perry's debate performance solidify his front-runner status for the GOP presidential nomination?" The options where YES or NO.

I asked her if she was serious? She then directed my call to a voice-mail machine. Shame on you CNN!

Are you afraid!?

[marbanak]

This debate is another fiasco. It should be the same questions to everybody, with a round of brief rebuttals. Sickening outcomes, here

[NorEEzta]

Fuck the establishment. There's more of us than you, and we're growing. Your kids will be inundated with debt that you perpetuate with wars and coporatism. You are not innocent of violating the Constitution and globalizing the US. Neocons are in bed with Socialist performing the same eugenics. Your blind support of Perry will wane with your existence and we will replenish the country with real Patriots.

[OctobersDying]

They're all saying what Ron Paul has been saying so that no one will pay attention to him anymore.

Media black out didn't work;so, if they make him appear as though he's just another one in the crowd saying the same as everyone else, but not being asked nearly as many questions, then he will be lost.

But, we all know that Ron Paul is the only one up there who has the balls and the heart to back up what he says.

[hserokdivad]

4:20 massive ron paul support :)

[Arperture2008]

Ron Paul knows debt...

[muratshawn]

I love it, Americans who are in so many wars, owe billions to China, and are so in debt.....still have the uneducated nerv to talk about "less taxes and less income tax" lol.....gosh u cant help retarded uneducated people....

Its amazing how dumb the majority of the american people are....

[datpiffny]

Ron Paul!!!

[JJsProductionx]

yeahh ron paul! smartest man up there

[MYAR15SaysImFree]

Ron Paul ignored for 3 questions in a row. include a fed question. no way. they can task Ron them questions cuz he would run away with it every time

[grace22794]

im liking gingrich a little more after each debate, he should be Ron Paul's vice president!

[RCBLVA]

@grace22794 I'm on the same page, for both remarks. Why don't others see this?

[Urgearhead]

It's like Ron Paul is Invisabule.... write CNN tell emm there full of shit...

[shaolonbros]

@Urgearhead whats the email to complain?

[thechangeling613]

This charade is a parade for the masquerade. The Kenyan teleprompter chimp gets two dances at this prom, no matter what happens.

[bufforilla]

@sstomlewis Actually Ron Paul has said he would get rid of all income taxes and get rid of the IRS.

[DeltaMartialArt]

it's not enough to say "Vote Ron Paul"

PEOPLE NEED TO SWITCH PARTIES 12 WEEKS IN ADVANCE OF THE PRIMARIES IN MOST STATES

IF YOU DO NOT SWITCH IN TIME YOU CANNOT VOTE IN PRIMARY.

IF YOU ARE NOT REGISTERED REPUBLICAN YOU CANNOT VOTE IN PRIMARY.

IF RON PAUL DOES NOT WIN PRIMARY, NO GENERAL ELECTION ! REGISTER AS A REPUBLICAN. FIND OUT WHEN YOUR STATE HAS PRIMARIES. FIND OUT WHERE AND VOTE ! PLEASE !

WE NEED EVERY LAST VOTE ! Copy and paste this everywhere, and vote up when u see

[cssrocko]

@YoungAndPrepping Stay sensible my friends

[EMPIRE0FLIES]

Tea party my ass.  The only true "Tea Partyer there is Ron Paul. All bunch of neocon snakes. Santorum being the worst. The audience makes me physically sick! And again they ignore him.

RP 12

[boricuamm707]

Did they just skip Ron Paul on 2 questions?

Fucking bullshit..

[Patricio87]

why don't they just give tax breaks for moving factories from china and mexico to usa?

[ParapaDrifter]

mox, you're a machine

[Salvysahagun]

Is this Tea-Party sponsored? because Rick Perry and Mitt Romney should not be their in that case

[jlaker79]

@Salvysahagun lol! I agree!

[PabloDPena]

@YoungAndPrepping You ARE the most interesting man in the world!

[Laidoutbug]

GOP baby!

[ttt8699]

11 dislikes for Wolf Blitzer! should be a lot more than that!

[callouschristian]

Dick Cheney said debt and deficits were good for our nation. This was in response to questions about the cost of the Iraq war. None of these people said he was wrong yet completely contradict him now. It's like a merry go round of nonsense with republicans.

[IMurderdTheDevil]

@callouschristian Just like obama and the democrats.

[callouschristian]

@callouschristian Obama was not in Washington at the time so I don't know what he said about it. Republicans lauded and celebrated Cheney's lies, as well as bush's and reagan's and it has led to the destruction of our nation. Republicans are really nothing but liars since the government and debt have ballooned under their watch...deliberately and contrary to your their silly mantras.

[GOPkicksbutt]

Thanks to liberal policy the world economy is crashing. We must do two things to stop the meltdown NOW!!! Firstly, we need to raise all payroll taxes 10% for one year. We also need to stop (right now) wasteful handout programs like medicare, social security, unemployment,, etc. and lower the minimum wage to $2/hr so we can compete with China. I will work with Boehner, Paul Ryan and my other republican colleagues and take immediate action on these proposals. God bless the GOP!

[redsolardragon1320]

this is bullshit.......and to not let the godfather of the tea party *ron paul the one who got these idiots the fire lit under their asses* to answer the questions that matter just goes to show that they will become another worthlesss tool for the masses, i feel pity for the tea party who will lose all crediblity soon, because i was really hoping that they would show how badly ron paul was being ignored and now they are just the same and main stream media hacks...what a waste

[IMurderdTheDevil]

@redsolardragon1320 Stop crying over Ron Paul not getting the nomination.

[ParapaDrifter]

@redsolardragon1320 take heart, neo-cons sought refuge within the TEA party. No one likes em. says more about those dingleberries than the TEA party.

[ThorFan4Life]

Ron Paul

[IMurderdTheDevil]

Leave it up to a dumbass democrat to ask a got you question and then get his teeth kicked in, Newt Gingrich for president.

[RacerEckss]

@IMurderdTheDevil Gotcha? Like.....What news papers do you read? Gotcha. HAHAHAHA!!!!

[Iammram]

4:18 RON PAUL CARDS! WOOOOOO CINCINNATI!

[whoo689]

Doesn't she mean "Virginia Teabaggers Alliance"?

[whoo689]

That's all well and good, Romney. But you forget one critical fact:

MOST AMERICANS DON'T HAVE THE MONEY FOR CAPITAL GAINS, INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS, or at least not much. That's a silly gimmick from Romney for votes.

[bufforilla]

Fuck This, Fuck This and Fuck This!!! Ron Paul 2012, No Respect!!!

[BigNeonGlitterGirl]

@bufforilla Right on! And who's the troll going around spamming peoples right to cheer their candidate on? Thats what is wrong with the sheeple---they don't want to wake up to the truth! Ron Paul has been saying the truth for over 30 years!!!!!

[plumberx]

We had Joe the Plumber. Now this young man is ( How Much Hinsley ) You ROCK

[whoo689]

They FORGET that when the economy is fucked, like now, the Fair Tax WON'T MEAN SHIT since people will SPEND LESS thanks to decreased demand. It won't do us any better than now. If anything, it'll just make our debt problem MUCH WORSE in the long run.

[whoo689]

The people who first argued for the Fair Tax and made it famous in this country (John Linder and Neal Boortz) are FULL OF CRAP when trying to explain how it "works." Plus, a SINGLE tax on consumer goods that can somehow raise JUST ENOUGH revenues to effectively eliminate the personal income tax, corporate income tax, SS and Medicare taxes, etc. etc.??

Sorry if I have a hard time believing any ONE tax can POSSIBLY raise THAT much cash.

[labartic]

ron paul is not in this video, dont bother

[LostFREEDOM]

Love how they parrot what Ron Paul has been saying for most of his political career FUNNY !!!

[BigNeonGlitterGirl]

@LostFREEDOM I thought the same thing!!! They're affraid to ask him any questions because they can't have the truth being told to the masses......(they might wake up).

[whoo689]

suddenly "ok." What weird minds these people have.

[whoo689]

SOMEONE is gonna have to pay that tax, and since the poor spend a larger percentage of their income on regular consumer products, they WILL probably spend more of this tax. It will be REGRESSIVE, and anyone who thinks otherwise either has access to info I don't know about or is just plain wrong and/or an idiot.

Plus, how is a prebate check to pay for an INCREASE IN SALES TAX not "a handout" or "welfare", since GOPers seem to HATE that kind of shit? But if it's to support THEIR new tax, it's

[whoo689]

The Fair Tax is a joke- a 23% SALES TAX at the federal level

But the proponents of it claim, "Well, the increase in consumer prices WON'T HURT YOU THAT MUCH" because they'll give you a "prebate" check or some bs like that. And they claim it "won't raise prices in stores" but will SOMEHOW be paid for directly by corporations out of revenues. That I have a hard time believing, esp. from the SAME people who keep saying, "If you raise taxes on companies, they'll pass that on to consumers."

[HowTuiteDoes]

fuck are you kidding? they give ron paul that question? fuck that.

[JusticeSpray]

When the hell has it been the media's job to influence the news to the point they ignore a majority that wants Ron Paul to answer questions?

[hospitaler808]

@JusticeSpray media's owned by zionist jews, ron paul wants to pull all troops out of middle east, were you born yesterday?

[PHONEYPOLITICS]

Im watching CNN - THE BIAS IS UNREAL - I reckon Ron Paul was set up tonight (when he got booed on 9 11) Ron Paul should go independent, the media are just to bias and the brainwashed USA mass are just to easy to influence - the ballot will be rigged also (if he gets pat those obstacles you can guareentee he will meet with an accident) TO HELL WITH THE MORONIC PATRIOTIC USA ARE BEST PUBLIC HELL DO THEY DESERVE WHATS COMING - The rest of the USA people get out while you can.

[whoo689]

What a loaded question.. In a country where the TOP income tax rate is only 35%?

[whoo689]

Napa Tea Party TEENS? Lol

[whoo689]

Napa Tea Party TEENS? Lol

[LostFREEDOM]

This is a BUSH depression dumb ass liar, Obama just made it worse

[LostFREEDOM]

Its so easy to spot these liars !!! Ron Paul all the way

[LostFREEDOM]

@LostFREEDOM Soken like a true liar and ego maniac...me me me me me

[LostFREEDOM]

@LostFREEDOM FUCK ALL OF YOU !!!!!!! LIARS blame blame blame game... Ron Paul can restore this country none of these liars will do shit for us

[LostFREEDOM]
