The RICH pay no Social Security tax on all earned or unearned income above $106,800.
Someone making $100,000 a year pays 100% of this tax while someone making a million, only pays 10% of this tax! The playing filed is RIGGED for the rich.
Economists say if you put this tax on ALL earned income for millionaires you could immediatley DOUBLE the payouts on current checks pulling 15 million out of poverty and the system would last to infinity!
In typical fashion the Unions and their Democratic allies are trying to subvert the political system. Walking out of the legislature when they do not get their way. When conservative principles are actually put into practice then they work. That is what scares them the most. Liberal policies are being proven to be a failure every day as they begin running out of other peoples money. Walker's policies are working. Saving the citizens money and not effecting services. The truth will shine through.
@GruntTGH At the beginning of 2011, Wisconsin had a surplus. Then Mr Walker passed tax cuts for about 120m dollar, about the size of the shortfall later declared and used this to justify stripping union, when the state had originally no reason to do it.
I live in Madison and have attended the protests time and time again......PROTESTORS WERE NOT BUSSED IN!!! There were busses and carpools coming in from area malls and other Wisconsin communities because parking near our state Capitol building is extremely limited. Aside from the random supporter from out of state here and there, the protestors were the local people of Wisconsin whose lives and working conditions were and are so very negatively affected by Walkers actions as well as by peopl
@amazingliberal Reagen didnt praise the Taliban him and Bush did one better and created Osama Bin Ladin ...think about it and the Iran Contra affair what was that ???? I love revisionist history Newts coming in 4th place in Iowa only confirms that Reaganomics is dead ... now its the rapture crowd driving the bus ...
To sum up what zoomustard is saying, to get a union teacher to care more about the students you have to pay them more. Otherwise, they don't care. News flash, you either care or you don't, money has nothing to do wit it. Yeah, gotta love those union thugs.
Its already a lost Cause my friends from Heritage Foundation, I greatfully and thankfully apreciate you efforts, but I think the Union/ Socialist/ Comunists Mafia already won, they did a good job in deluding the American people to point of no return. The people want to forget what made this country great, they want to forget the past, the values of economic freedom... as they say now they want rise the taxes and tariffs, protectionism policies and more government handouts, favors and titles.
@sincity147 Anyone who would use Union/ Socialist/ Comunists Mafia in the same sentence is a johnny-come-lately to politics, learned no civics or history in school and is pissed of about something Faux News said that wasn't true to begin with. But you have no historical education to fall back on, so you just call people names.....like Faux News.....which proves my point.
TRUTH is what won here and truth isn't a lost cause It's a shame you've believed the all lies of the last 30 years.
Stop Walker and his ALEC agenda backed by the Koch suckers in this world of ours. Republicans are killing the future of the middleclass and gutting unions to prevail in their job killing agenda. RECALL WALKER!
Interesting how this chick says "Wisconsin is broke". How did it become "broke"? Well, Walker came in and immediately lowered corporate taxes causing a revenue disparity and voila, they were "broke". Well, Walker, I can't wait till you're "broke" because you'll be out of a job LOL
Wisconsinites are the best!!!! Don't let the Heritage Foundation LIE to the people. Heritage Foundation - go home or go to that hole you crawled out from and quit the crap. Bye bye Walker....the people have spoken!!! Daughter of a union guy and wife of a union guy. I stand in solidarity with you!!!!
Don't give up Unions! Even though the teabaggers have all the money, power and influence, the power of the people will always reign--just look at the French Revolution
Listen Einstein, we now have 2 more Democrats in the Senate than we did before LOL. With more on the way. Oh, and goodbye Governor Walker, you are history. Why anyone would want to strip professional working class people of their money and benefits befuddles me. America is full of jealous people. If someone has something they don't have, they want them to lose it too. However, it's funny how you love the wealthy and the corporate elitists
Oh, yeah, I forgot that teachers, police, firefighters, mail carriers, prosecutors etc. aren't productive but yacht sailors and corporate elitist are LOLOLOL
@NewWorldAhead - CEOs are the managers of the very companies teachers rely on to even exist. So yeah, they are a bit over paid compared to private sector teachers though.
@NewWorldAhead you have got to be kidding... you are showing lack of reason. Do you really think we will be hearing, "off with their heads?" Sensationalism never promotes debate.
The corporately funded Right wing subversive front group "Americans for Prosperity" sent absentee ballots to Democrats in at least two Wisconsin state Senate recall districts with instructions to return the paperwork AFTER the election date. The fliers ask solidly Democratic voters to return ballots for the election to the city clerk "before Aug. 11." The fliers were discovered in District 2. Recall Walker and his corporate fascist puppets on Tuesday Aug. 9. Cleanse Wisconsin of brown shirts
On Page 4 of the official Standard & Poors “Research Update”: "We have changed our assumption on this because the majority of Republicans in Congress continue to resist any measure that would raise revenues, a position we believe Congress reinforced by passing the act.”
@zoomustard Page 3, under "rationale", starts with "we believe that the prolonged controversy over raising the statutory debt ceiling and the related fiscal policy debate indicate that further near-term progress containing the growth in public spending, especially on entitlements, or on reaching an agreement on raising revenues is less likely than we previously assumed". Note spending is mentioned too, but YOU just quote revenue? Lying fuck.
@zoomustard The point? Page 4 says one thing, page 3 another. Naturally, you pick the page that you like. In any case, conservatives and liberals both agree that S&P ratings suck, since they rated sub prime mortgages as AAA too. They arent credible anymore.
@zoomustard Gold price reflects the collective view of the world`s investors of the value of the US dollar. This collective view shows the world thinks the dollar is shit. This view existed for many years, before S&P made its downgrade. Gold around $300 yr 2000. Gold $35 in 1970. Nobody believes the US Govt will not pay off bonds. But everyone knows they will be paid off with increasingly worthless currency. That is not technically default, but nobody will get full value returned.
@luvcheney1 I remember $35 gold, then the standard was lifed US debts @.?? cents on the dollar. That's how we paid for Viet Nam Nam, Damn, correct twice in one day. I could get to like you yet. We wife moved an additional $200K into gold 11 days ago. Be safe.
@luvcheney1 Not only that, but the cut,cap and balance bill that the TeaParty supported and the Republicans PASSED was the ONLY plan that met all of the requirement that S&P TOLD US they needed in order to NOT downgrade our rating.
Hell, the Democrats didn't even HAVE a written plan until the Sunday before the default.
@ToddAldrich Where have you been ..............up some CEO's asshole fighting for air? We all know the plans for the budget was lip service for all the banksters that run our country from cradle to grave. Fuck a teabagger republican and the fat fucking elite they are in bed with.
@teabaggersblow - You got burned by the latest recall results in Wisconsin huh? It's okay, I think whatever reaction you have towards it will make me even HAPPIER!!!!
@HexTest How did I get burned? This war ain't over yet. One battle in a long line of battles. You better keep sucking that corporate cock and keep funneling that money straight in those coffers because money and lies are the only thing keeping you republican fucks head above water. Let see if those wisconsin faithful will get the 550,000 votes to have a recall election on your favorite governor with his big cock stuck in your ass.
@HexTest hahahaha That surprises me about as much as you towing the anti-american republican party line. I don't know of a single republican that would give America the sweat off their balls. Hell Perry is running on the Evangelical platform and he gave less that $300 to his church in the last 5 years. Maybe longer but they have only gone back that far. Bachmann wants to kill the debt ceiling yet she took money from it. All these bills were already incurred. Stupid fucking unamerican teatards.
@HexTest I would call it being a traitor and unamerican. But if you want to call it republican, teatard, or hosebag, I can see your point. Of course do not let me put words in your mouth like the republican corporate elite do. They hate government but they sure love their homegrown security................ just do not want to pay for it ...........like you for instance.
@HexTest u r a part of the 45 to 54 percent that do not contribute to our country and u expect others to listen. u stay here for the free ride, you contribute nothing, u r waste, nothing
NEWS FLASH: 5 states have banned collective barganing for teachers. North & South Carolina, Georgia, Texas and Virginia. In SAT & ACT scores, SC ranks 50th in the nation, NC is 49th, GA is 48th, TX is 47 and VA is a success story at 44th. Anyone in America that works for a paycheck, saves for retirement , their children's education who vote Republican on the state and national level is a fool or has a hobby horse issue like guns or abortion which the GOP doesn't give two shits about.
@zoomustardMaybe when our kids can read and write good enough to fill out a job application, we'll consider supporting the unions. Otherwise unions are a drag on society and all end up as nothing more than a huge money laundering machine for the Democrats at election time.
@earlyhemibill Dear 10th grade drop out: It's "write WELL enough". Not to whip an uninformed an toad, but you talk in circles. Read what you wrote and, this time, think about it. What grade in middle school did you stop reasoning? As you don't seem interested (or smart enough) to be involved in your child's education, I would think you would want teaching to pay better than lawn care so that one day, your kids WILL be able to out a job application despite the fact that their father is a dope.
@zoomustard Considering that I donate time to the school where my grandchidren go, I think I do more than many. By the way whip is spelled with an "I" not a "U", that is of course unless you're taking your ecucation from Roy D. Mercer. Bill
Considerig that I'm reading through cataracts, I'm doing pretty good. If you are a teacher, I am fearful of you. Surely you will be teaching our children the wonders of socialism or worse. I know, tell them all about the evil rich . You know, the ones that really end up paying your salary. And don't forget Donations to Republicans come from FAT-CATS, and donations to Democrats only come from those are civic minded philanthropists.
@earlyhemibill I have nothing against being rich. Some people think I am. I'm a semi-retired business owner who was left unemployed and broke by the Reagan recession and I've watched the decline in American wages every since he broke PATCO. My friend just hired a man in Quality Control for $12.58/hr. That's what that job paided here in 1978 if you were in a union. Teachers have never came close to what millions had 30 years ago. Had my cataracts done in December but I have insurance. Do you?
@zoomustard Reaga recession? Are you out of your mind? He came in after Carter and had a real mess to clean up. Yes I'm old enough to remember those good times alright. It's sad that so many voters today don't remember peanut man. He can finally rejoice in the fact that he is no longer the worst president ever. You ain't seen anything yet. It's going to get worse until we get some hard core conservatism back in the white house. Bill
@earlyhemibill Look at the whole story. Inflation was a problem under Nixon (not blaming him) when he put a wage/price freeze in effect in 11/73. Ford wore a pin with WIN on it (Whip Inflation Now). Carter inherited the mess and was totally inept. Reagan got elected promising to cut taxes while increasing defense spending and ran the economy into the ground. That stopped inflation AND changed the US from the world's #1 creditor to the world's #1 debtor. Reagan raised debt ceiling 11 times too
@zoomustard I'm sorry for you friend's situation. My job went to China in lat 07. I was making good money. Since then I've been laid off 3 times ( the fist in 27 years ), and am now making $12.29 an hr. I'm a machinist. Patco? I remember alright. We need another Reagan marching through this country like Jesus and the money changers. We'll start in Wisconsin. Poor babies being asked to kick in 5% of their own money for their retirement. My heart bleed for them!
@earlyhemibill My friend is doing fine. The point of the statement is that manufacturing wages here are the same as 30 years ago. Adusted for inflation, they're almost unlivable. The issue in Wisconsin is the right to bargain, but sites like this and Fox Jazzera have altered the focus to money which angers people whose real income has been in decline for 30 years. Most people today have been in the workforce less than 30 years and don' t what it was like before Reagan declared war on labor
@zoomustard You're right. I am making what I made 30 years ago. We also had milionairs and billionairs then too. What's changed, higher taxes and regulations. We are becoming the country with the highest taxes on corporations on the planet. It's not about money, it's about power and who has it. The tea party is being throttled by the left and in the mdedia. Why, because they're about to upset the left wing apple cart. No Fox news or Rush back them so it was easy to get away with.
Here's how it works. FL, $4B in corportate tax cuts, $3.8B cit from education.
AZ Jan Brewer cuts medicade for 280K people, saves $541M, give $538m to corporations. MI cuts education by $1.2B, public worker pay by $180M, gives $1.8B in tax cutr for corporations
@earlyhemibill You just verified your stupidity beyond all comprehension. Someone should do an intervention with you. However, I'm not wasting any of my time. I suggest that you start weaning yourself from the Fox Jazzera nipple. Only then can you begin to stop spouting propaganda spread by people who spend more on jet fuel in a day than you'll ever earn in a year. If the conservative message is so correct, why are they involved in various forms of election tampering all over America?
@zoomustard I've tried listening the Ed Schlitz and Stepanie Miller, but I got tired of them having to hit the mute button every few seconds to cover up the 4-letter language.That's the mentality I get from the left. Here on youtube, it's a constant 4-letter verbal assault. I learned all those words when I was 13. Too bad the left hasen't advanced past that.
@earlyhemibill Try telling the truth. Both those show are public air way broadcasts. There is no profanity. For that, all you have to do is read the posts from the $25K a year, no benefits, Repunkitrons. SAMPLE FROM OTHER VIDEO: "what part of broke dont these union assholes understand! Even Obama rates are education system about 13th in the world!! worry more about Teaching then with your fucking benefits , you greedy bastards!" This is how brainwashed Righties debate. I don't
@zoomustard . Apparently you never listen to Stephanie Miller. If Limbaugh used that kind of language you people on the left would demand he be cancelled. Ed Schlitz got cancelled for a week for it. And by the way, you're a teacher. Why on earth would Obama put a stop to the school voucher system in Chicago? Is he afraid that some black children might get a better education than other black children? What is it about socialism that says we should all suffer instead of all succeed?
@zoomustard You mean our children would actually have a chance to learn instead of being indoctrinated? Good heavens-we can't have that! I take my bosses kids to school and pick them up in the afternoon. They go to Basis here in Tucson. They are brilliant. I just wonder how they would be doing in a public school. The girls wear uniforms to keep down the fashion shows for the boys and vice-versa. They are originally from Iran. They have an appreciation for education unlike us. Social advance?
@earlyhemibill Sounds like a good deal to me. Fortunate children. The children are from Iran? I have a friend from Iran who councils native Americans at the college level. A great people held hostage by radical fundamentalists. Here we call them Republicans.
@earlyhemibill OK, Stephanie Miller uses humor from the edge. I do recall Red Ed's bomb, but I rarely listen to them. They're in the same league as Beck & Hannity . Limbaugh does things equally sick like making fun of Michael J. Fox's Parkinsons disease tremors. Limbaugh spent months blaming California's blackouts on "environmental wackos." The real problem was Enron reps loop selling electricity. I called Limbaugh's show several times after this was exposed but was never allowed on the air.
W Spann LLC, a company formed in March by a Boston lawyer who specializes in estate tax planning for "high-net-worth individuals," pumped $1 million into a political committee backing Mitt Romney, then dissolved just 4 months after it was formed, leaving few clues as to who was behind one of the biggest contributions yet of the 2012 presidential campaign. More proof that the only way the "conservative" propaganda stays afloat is by outright corruption. Don't you just love "job creators"?
collective bargaining for public employees should be outlawed. the unions have held the tax-payer hostage. private sector workers pay taxes so public workers can enjoy the lavish benefits.
@HeritageFoundation tell your masters the Koch Brothers that I said fuk you!! Fuk your lies. You are unpatriotic terrorist that hate America and Hate freedom. You love socialism and unions for the rich, which are lobbyist. You hate poor and middle class people. one day you will burn in he'll for all the evil that you created. again FUK U, If I see you in the street or anyone that works for you, I'm bitch slapping the shit out of you.
Dead Economy, why? According to JPM/Chase: 10% unemployed. US salaries at 50-year low relative to corporate sales and GDP. Major corporate profits highest since 1960s. Shrinkage of wages & benefits responsible for 75% of corp profit boom. Why? Unions have withered and the unemployed will gladly take YOUR job for less money, not to mention 2 billion Asians. Money produced by everyone's hard work is sucked straight to the top or stays off shore. Welfare for rich. So much for the "job creators".
@zoomustard Hey, stupid, what exactly IS the return on investment, PE Ratio of the S&P 500? You know, dividends to the owners? Highest since the 1960`s? 4%? Really? Idiot.
@zoomustard Note how you are totally unable to debate a simple point? I am waiting.............. you claimed, "Major corporate profits highest since 1960s." I guess you didnt know that 2.3 Trillion in asset value wiped off the fucking planet in 10 days. Companies drowning in profits dont lose asset values like that, stupid.
@luvcheney1 Have you ever heard of insider trading? Who do you think profits the most when the market takes a 600 point nose dive but then rebounds the next day. The same rich motherfucker who sold early and then bought it back the next day. That other 25% John Q. Public are sitting there right now with there dick in their hand and a lot smaller bank account. You don't get out much do you?
I want what I want when I want it! And I want my tax loopholes now! Could I be in clearer........ tax loopholes for the wealthy or this country is going down! hehehehe
@teabaggersblow Even WITH the "Loopholes", the top 25% pays over 86% of the income taxes. The bottom 75% only paying 14%. I guess you think sales tax on your "new" 1999 Hyundai at $1000 are same as on new Mercedes? Room tax at Motel 6 same as at Hilton? Tax on McDouble same as for steak and lobster? 3/4 of the people only paying 14%. AND, you are believing THAT is too much, 14%? This is just 3 wolves voting to eat one calf. The calf will soon be consumed, will not give milk.
@luvcheney1 The same wealthy not paying enough in taxes are getting tax loopholes and drawing on social secuirity and medicare. hehehehe Any other questions?
@luvcheney1 The last time I cashed in on stocks my stock broker did not make me pay any taxes for medicare, or social security. I paid 15% like all those hedge fund managers paying less taxes than their secretaries. I can only eat one meal at a time and I don't have sales tax of food in Texas. Neither does the fucking wealthy the last time I checked. Eat a little or eat alot the only difference is how big a turd me or that wealthy fuck shits out the other end of this argument.
@teabaggersblow In Texas, sales tax is due on restaurants. I mentioned McDonalds. Before a dividend is sent to you, a Corp must already have satisfied its corp taxes to pay you, where our stupid Govt taxes it again. No wonder Corps leave the US, to get away from idiots. Taxing capital is silly. Capital is why a farmer with a $200,000 combine can be paid more than a farmer with a hoe. Capital is the only way to compete with low wage nations. Go ahead, tax capital?? Just burn the factory down.
@luvcheney1 You dumbfuck any kind of money a person recieves that is not under the table should be taxed. Are you advocating shirking your responsibilities like all the other greedy republican scum? What do you do sell drugs from across the border? As far as eating out tell those non tax paying republicans to make a meal now and then and save on their taxes to Perry and the rest of the scum running our state. I guess poor little teatards like you eat out at restuarants everyday. hehehehe
@teabaggersblow The 91% personal tax rate of the 1950`s, the 50% corp rate, gave 17.3% of GDP to govt in taxes. 35% personal and corp rate of Bush term gave 17.4%. These are just facts, get them anywhere, if you can use a calculator. How can this be?? Because the rich, and Corporations will NOT pay high rates. This is just human nature. Go ahead, raise the rates. But, dont expect that to raise a fucking nickel. It didnt in the past, and will not today either. You are delusional to expect it.
@luvcheney1 Capital gains should be raised. Then the tax loopholes removed. Give Grover a reach around instead of sucking him dry. If the marginal tax rate can go down effectively after tax loopholes are addressed ....so be it. I am paying the lowest tax rates I have ever paid in my lifetime. The most tax I paid was in 2000 the year right before your fearful leader turned a small deficit in America to a huge problem on my grandkids and an America that only you are proud of. Unamerican bullshit.
@teabaggersblow Go ahead, raise Capital Gains. Revenue FROM this tax will fall, as Capital flows where it can be used at greater returns of profits. It already is. 40% of stocks purchased in the US are Foreign, capital is flowing into China and Singapore, Vietnam, etc, for factories, as well as Financial investments, as per "Dodd- Frank Bill". London is benefiting too, as Capital flees the restrictions Obama and Congress put on banking system. Loophole= Corps fleeing, stupid.
@luvcheney1 What a wimp you are. hehehehe Does a republican just follow like a goosestepping goon to every dumb idea any republican can come up with. The businesses, mostly giant corporations, have over $2T sitting on the sideline. Drawing more in interest than any of us. So you tax the bastards what is fair for all Americans and go about your business. These elite have little choice but to spend some of their money on their own business or give it to the government. Cumdrunk republican.
@teabaggersblow No, they can invest it long term, and avoid taxes for decades. They can buy foreign stocks, outside reach of US Corp tax rates. They can bank the 2 Trillion overseas, take profits in no or low tax nations. They can build factories in China, pay 20% export taxes, instead of the 43.8% calif rates. All of these things are routine solutions. Capital flows where it returns the most, not the least. Like it or not, that is just reality.
@luvcheney1 So here we go again. Same old shit different day. The only way to straighten this shit out is tax those elite mofo till their balls fall off. I love the way you make the simple points for me.
@teabaggersblow WE already DO "tax the balls off" US Corporations. In Calif, the top tax rate is 43.8% ( Fed 35% plus State 8.8% ) and in Canada it is 16%, or China at 20%, or 31 OECD nations avg at 24%. So, they leave the US, pay taxes to THOSE Govts. Jobs, tax revenues lost, and then you think, "is tax those elite mofo till their balls fall off.". How? They are already GONE! Thanks to you. Oh well, unemployment is the answer, just extend it?
@luvcheney1 You dumbass the top 20% own 80% of everything. So how is that working out for everybody. The middleclass shrinks and can't pay taxes and the upper 20% gets more and more money but are not required to pay taxes. Republican plan of the blind leading the blind. Those republican politicians better get some bullet proof glass. You never know when a flash mob might get all froggy and jump.
@ToddAldrich Dumbass you saw the market today didn't you? You think those rich fat fucks were taking profits for their health. Those poor, poor bastards know they are on the hook for billions that are going up in smoke in the UK. The banksters are underwriting the insurance companies that are knee deep in arson claims. hehehe If these elite loving republicans don't start opening the spigot, I can see hooligans making the same kind of decisions here. Fuck a republican insurance company.
@dalecampbl6 Meanwhile, there are 78,000 tax filers with incomes of $211,000 to $533,000 who will pay no federal income taxes this year. There are 24,000 households with incomes of $533,000 to $2.2 million with zero income tax liability, and 3,000 tax filers with incomes above $2.2 million with the same federal income tax liability as most of those with incomes barely above the poverty level. It’s not socialism to require them to pay something to the country where they had such opportunity.
@zoomustard Many people do not have "income" subject to income taxes, they may have income subject to other taxes, such as capital gains. Or, they may just have "unrealized capital gains", my favorite! ( and Warren Buffet`s, Bill Gates) Imagine a safe deposit box filled with gold coins that are worth 5 times what they were in 2000. No taxes are due, until sold at a profit. They will not be subject to income tax rates, but when sold, which might be never, they are long term Cap gains. Stupid.
@luvcheney1 Believe me, I know about capital gains. I have them myself, but my father-in-law was an estate attorney. The loopholes are obscene and for the rich.
@zoomustard Oh, I see. Thats why the bottom 50% only pays 3% of the income taxes? The top 5% pays 59%? Lets get rid of all those loopholes, then the top 5% can pay 100%, and the bottom 95% pay zero. Then, the 95% can just vote to spend like little fuckheads, who cares?
Hitler is in consistent warfare. America is in consistent warfare. Hitler exerted extreme nationalism on aryan race, war and country America exerts nationalism on soldiers, war and country. Hitler makes Germany into a corporatocracy/military estate and plutocracy. America is becoming a corporatocracy & plutocracy but is already a military estate. Th
Neo-fascism is taking roots in the United States of America. Hitler abolished unions in 1932. America busts up Unions. Hitler goes after masons, jews and catholics. America goes after illegals, muslims and anti-americans.
YOU MOVE NOW ELTIST MOTHER FUCKERS!! DO U SPEAK ENGLISH MOTHERFUCKER?! ENGLISH MOTHERFUCKER DO U SPEAK IT? SAY WHAT ONE MORE TIME MOTHERFUCKER, I FUCKEN DARE U!!
@dalecampbl6 How come Bush`s deficit spending is credited with causing a depression, and Obama claims his bigger deficit spending is saving us from it? I actually think this is like cheeseburgers, or cigarettes. A few arent really disastrous, but a shitload sure is.
Nice to see a video from the conservative view for a change. Although it spent too much time on Union contributions because the unions already agreed to them. Also the Wisconsin pension fund is one of the healthiest in the country.
If that is best argument you can provide, you already lost
@amazingliberal I know Paul can't win because republicans from the country club side will not embrace him. He is smarter than most republicans and does not take money on the side or sign pledges that make no political sense. Having said that, you must get money regardless of who gives it. He will not get the kind of money it takes to win a presidency. And if he did win, Paul would have to go to the woodshed as required by corporate America to keep his post.
@amazingliberal I never said Ray Gun was a racist ..............he just saw a void, a niche, a vacuum, that he and his campaign staff embraced to boost his constiuency. It is no different now with the Palins and Bachmanns of the world. If Ron Paul would leave the republican party and run as an independent it would not get him the presidency but it would make more people hold him in a better light. He needs to get away from this private ownership issue that plagues his campaign.
@amazingliberal I am an Eisenhower republican. Higher taxes on the rich period. Unions for the working man. The republicans ran off the rail when Ray Gun stepped into a vaccum left by the old southern democrat that hated blacks and wished they were still slaves to this day. And these teabaggers are playing the same racist politics. Me me me and fuck anyone that loves america. Even level headed Americans are seeing the corporate republicans trying to highjack the tea party movement. Fuck D Armey!
@amazingliberal No what you need to get straight is whenever anyone of your prowess cannot figure out right from wrong, regardless of which party does it .....................you must be a republican. I cannot see it any other way. Dems are really fucked up too but nowhere close to a republican and his pionzi scheme approach of the American way of life. Republicans are not my fathers republican party anymore. Nothing more than bottom feeders of the worst kind. And really unamerican to boot.
Study history? Do you have any idea that there was slave labor in the south with the african people? Don't you know the history of the working conditions of our immigrants from Germany, Ireland, Poland and other europeans had to deal with in the coal mines and steel mills? Can't you make the connections to why labor unions came about because of what these poor immigrants went through? Break the unions and eventually the teabaggers will break the government laws that these immigrants fought for.
@amazingliberal You are as dumb as that cartoon character you call daddy. Teafucks like you just like the abuse. The asshole all swollen from republican politician cum. A tribute to your past and a glimpse of your future. I prefer to name you cumbelly or peter belly. Teabagger may be too nice for stupid party first fucks like you.
Investigations going on all over the US, seems UNION TEACHERS falsifying standardized test results, trying to make it appear they are teaching. 46 of 54 schools in Atlanta suspect, WISCONSIN also implicated, although most Govt scum schools, and a broad number of teachers cheating. Who cares anyway? Govt schools are about unions, not teaching anyway.
@luvcheney1 Funny you bring up the part about teaching. Wisconsin ranked #2 in SAT and ACT scores in the whole US but your fearful leader Walker wants them taken down. heheheh I know the budget old tea party breath. hehehe Well the good people of Wisconsin have shot a round over the bow. Walker could be next starting next year. States without teaching unions are ranked 50, 49, 48, 47, and so on for their teachablity on SAT and ACT scores. Tough republican pill to swallow. They are good at it.
@teabaggersblow Cutting spending is moot point. Matters none in long run. Govt broke, will cut now, or have to cut by Bond purchasers who will eventually demand sky high interest rates.Country will most likely not support cuts. Greece is on 28% rates, because bond purchasers have no faith in them. Gold hit new highs today, around $1580. This reflects NO FAITH in Dollar/ Euro future prospects. My net worth up $5K, TODAY. Lib stupidity makes me richer. Either way I win, assets up 5X last 10 yrs.
@luvcheney1 Cuting loopholes being shot down by republicans is ludicrous. So now you and other republican nobodies are worried that some hedge fund manager has to pay more than 15% capital gain tax. hahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Whatever blows your skirt up. Just lube that twat of yours before you get heat rash. Did you know the Koch sucker Bros are the biggest speculators on the oil market? Commodities are the vehicle the rich use to fuck you like a housecat. Speculation is their tool.
@teabaggersblow Oil supply/ demand is allocated by price. Low prices reduce profitiblility, discourage& lower production. This is good, when there are surpluses of supply, in relation to usage. High prices reduce demand, encourage higher production as oilfields that were unprofitable at low prices now become profitable at high prices. This is good, when demand exceeds supply. Speculators look forward. They buy/sell on the future, balancing supply/ demand. This keeps balance of availability to us
@luvcheney1 Read the Wall Street Journal or something. We are using less gasoline than ever and have more gasoline in reserves than ever yet the price of gasoline is higher than ever. Koch sucking speculators! And republicans trip those Koch suckers and beat them to the ground.
@teabaggersblow Crude oil is around $115, highest price ever was about $145 early 2008. ( fell to $30 too, as well, late 2008. Speculators adjust for crisis.) You say it is higher than ever, that is false. China, India, growing economy, and incomes of people demanding more oil like we want too. China has 1.3 bill people, India 1.2 bill, so that is 8 times our population, growing richer buying more gasoline. World usage going much higher in long run. Speculators know this, you are sleeping.
@luvcheney1 Hey these guys are your sugar daddy. I just have to pay at the pump. $3.50 a gallon in Texas is as high as it has nearly ever gotten. So since we have more gasoline than ever in reserves ..................why are we paying these high prices? Oh yea the valve on the pipeline is not open. Logical way to make billions on something you bought at a lower price. Just wait for the price to go up then sell sell sell.
@teabaggersblow Crude oil was around $35, now is over 110, thats why. I thought you said, Read the Wall Street Journal. If milk gets expensive stupid, the milkshake gets expensive.
@luvcheney1 That is my point dumbass. All reserves are full. No more place to store it. The speculators let it trickle out a little at a time for maximum effect. You republicans are so dumb about the things that only require common sense. You go around your ass to get to your elbow. hehehehe But if the same speculators aka the Koch sucker Bros flooded the market worldwide and did not sit on it. SELL SELL SELL it would go down in price. Try to keep up.
@teabaggersblow According to "DOE Motor Gasoline Total Inventory Data", (US Dept of Energy), Gasoline in storage was .241 Mill on Feb 11, 2011, and on July 15, 2011 it was only .212mill. So, your premise is wrong, gasoline reserves are not full. Surely you know that when supplies get high, price falls, and when they get low, they rise. Go get the chart of supplies. You will see, inventories go up, and down. Big deal, prices adjust this, go up and down too, stupid.
@luvcheney1 You are showing your ass again. If I own a tank that is empty no gasoine can be removed from it. If I own a tank that is full and I decide not to open the main cutoff valve, no gasoline can be removed. How stupid are you guys? Oil giants like the Koch sucker Bros do not buy gasoline on the open market until it goes down in price. Then they hold onto whatever reserves they have until it goes up in price. Thus it is called speculation. Get at least a fifth grade education.
@teabaggersblow Bull. Gas must be sold to make room for crude to be refined, keep profit flowing to oil Corps. There isnt infinite storage capacity, to explore, produce, move, refine into gasoline, & let it sit, and build more and more storage capacity! "there has been gradual, continual decline in volumes of gasoline inventory. Whereas in 1990 the average days of supply level was about 30 days, that level fell to 23.8 days by 2000 and more recently to about 22.6 days of supply," FALLING, stupid
@earlyhemibill Bought GDX, GDXJ, GLD on June 27, am up 16% in about 3 weeks. Got my trailing stop loss orders all set, moved them up twice, so have about 9% locked in, hope to ride the rally. Or not. The first 2 are gold mining stock ETF`s, the latter gold bullion. Sorry, I only focus on one sector. "Am I diversified??", asks Jim Cramer? Fuck NO! I make money.
@earlyhemibill Well, I just think the current mindset in DC gives little hope for the dollar, and there are great ways to cash in on the disaster. Hell, its not my fault, I cant stop it, I might as well make the best out of it. The "Opportunity of a Lifetime" is how I read it.
@luvcheney1 There you go making my point for me. Just like healthcare it is being rationed out to the highest bidder. The fewer hospitals the higher the rate can be charged. So they open cheaper strip mall acute care centers.The fewer gallons of gasoline in storage tanks the more money can be charged. If some bleeding heart liberal flooded the world with more storage tanks filled to the brim and willing to sell all the gasoline the price would drop. They purposely do not keep up with demand.
@teabaggersblow As if the Obama Admin wants Oil Companies to produce oil in the US. With better inventory control, as in many industries, "just in time" inventories reduce costs, competitiveness. First, you state their are huge reserves of gasoline, then I point out that the reserves of today are smaller than before. Now, your point is smaller reserves proves your point? Make up your mind stupid. BTW, everything on earth is "rationed to the highest bidder". You sell your car to the LOWEST?
@luvcheney1 My real point is: You are a dumbass. Of course it does not matter how many storage tanks go up or down in your little pie in the sky scenerio. It is all based on having the resources to even fill a storage tank. People like you are so small minded it makes little sense to keep trying to school you, on the corporate climate in our world. Who really gives a fuck in the end how many times people like you want to whine about the greater good of a bunch of selfish owners. Grow up!
@teabaggersblow Is there any point here at all? "It is all based on having the resources to even fill a storage tank." This is the only one I see here. I guess you think we could function without gasoline in storage? Just run pipes from the refineries, into the gas stations? Without any 22 day reserve, to meet fluctuating production and use demand? OK, go ahead, explain this idea a little further. Oh, and really what difference does a 22 day inventory make, over the long run, of decades?
@luvcheney1 No my point is regulation. Boards from our federal government in place that require owners to live up to the real meaning of capitalism and not some greed filled need to screw the public. Take a deep breath and try to understand the pitfalls of the rich making demands carte blanche. Just because there are powers that can take and take does not mean it is in the best interest of everyone with a pulse.
@teabaggersblow Again, no specific policy to debate from you. "Just because there are powers that can take and take does not mean it is in the best interest of everyone with a pulse." Prices, for example, of a corporation must cover costs, and a reasonable profit. If they dont, nothing will be produced. So, since the current return of 500 large corporations, known as the S&P500 return just 4%, I suggest your "feeling" is silly. Check out what PE ratio IS. Tell me what is the ratio TODAY.
@luvcheney1 You are sitting there with the brain of an 11 year old and you say no policy debate from me. I already told you to grow up. Your mind is like mush.................. republican mush.
@teabaggersblow Ok, pick any policy you want to defend, or attack. Then, do it. I will respoind. Try to be more specific, than " brain of an 11 year old", or " Your mind is like mush.................. republican mush.", or " real meaning of capitalism and not some greed filled need to screw the public.". An example of a case where you can see the public being screwed, and how, would be nice.
@luvcheney1 Just read all you rebuttals to your very own questions. I do believe you are slow but even you can see something in the premise to help American workers as opposed to shit on American workers in these great United States. But I have seen many a tea party first fuck that would argue with a fence post so I will not hold my breath.
@luvcheney1 Have you ever worked in a refinery? I have my whole adult life. Every petro chemical plant looks at market price and availablity of a certain chemical or a certain fuel to decide what plan of action they will support in the coming year. It is all about projections. All tank farms are filled with a particular product depending on the contract that the said supplier has signed and put on the books without having to do major construction changes in order to supply the product.
@luvcheney1 When someone like the Koch sucker Bros buy up most of the contracts in the marketplace then other suppliers will look at another product to produce with a minimum amount of disruption in their units in order to make this other product. Now these other companies are locked into a different revenue stream. The Koch suckers know this so in their little piece of the pie they can pick and choose which contracts to buy now and which ones to hold off on. Thus specualtion dumbass.
@teabaggersblow I see. You are an expert in speculation, but cant even spell it. Speculation just balances the market through prices. World demand is rising because China, India, and other nations are getting richer, and wanting oil. Big deal. When there is imbalance, price allocates. Big deal. Would you prefer ration tickets? Let Obama tell you what to pay, how much you are "allowed"?
@luvcheney1 Tell me something that means something and not all the republican talking points with a dose of the clap. Typical teatard ................like herding cats. No wonder this country is divided . That dumb fucking teatard Joe Walsh calling the pres a liar on camera and can't even support his own fucking litter of rats. Eating cheese on the American dime. Your very own tea party hero. Feed your rats loser.
@teabaggersblow When speculators think shortages of oil are coming, they buy contracts for future delivery, and this causes prices to climb. Higher prices discourage the use of oil, and encourage production, because it has become more profitable, and fields that were not profitable before become so. Less usage, and more production just means balance is restored, at the new price. Everything on earth works this way. Big harvest of oranges?? Prices fall. Big orange freeze, prices rise. Big deal
@luvcheney1 hehehe Are you still hearing voices and debating yourself. All oil refineries have the capacity to buy and sell gasoline. They choose this option depending upon contracts from their buyers and sellers. I have seen whole city blocks of units that only produce gasoline yet turn a profit on another product in the same unit within a 2 week period. Wake the fuck up.
@teabaggersblow OMG, businesses making profits? OMG. Largest US refiners are Exxon, and Valero. Exxon after tax profit, as % of revenue is 7.9%, and Valero`s is 1.1%, in 2010. Valero`s business is far more retail and refinery oriented that Exxon`s. This means refining is less profitable, as % of revenue, that crude exploration and production. Even so, using Exxons figure as base for profit on todays $3.11 wholes gas cost, means Big Oil makes 25 cents/gal profit. Big Deal, who cares? 25 cents?
@luvcheney1 I think learning calculas may be your cup of tea. I have never seen anyone go off on so many tangents from one post to another. Claculas does not rely on common sense solutions. It is finite and people like you have parameters that never look at the big picture but you are good at pleasing yourself with mundane attacks of the obvious.
@luvcheney1 Rebuttals from you are one joke after another. Go play in traffick. We all know doing the best for americans is not on any tea party agenda and especially not yours.
@luvcheney1 How about you being a wittle whiney ass teatard. Cry like a baby because you don't want your wittle tax loopholes taken away. hahahahahaha Tea party cry babies. oh no not my tax loopholes. I know you gave up some serious asshole for those tax breaks. hehehehe Teatard are some childish cunts.
@teabaggersblow At least we pay taxes, the bottom half only pays 3% of the income taxes. I suggest they pay their fair share. Why the fuck is all this my responsibility? Who made me the one to support you? I really dont care about anybody, but my own family. You go take care of yours. Thats fair.
@luvcheney1 Support me? with you wittle nanny state tax loopholes? Corporate nanny state by your teatard nanny state lovers. heheheh No problem our corporate nanny state has the best corporate nanny state that corporate money can buy. hehe Last time I heard Rove was not getting grass roots donations of $30...........he was sucking the giant corporations cock that republicans love the most. More corporate cum for every republican out there if they leave DC and need a job in the private sector.
What's with the condescending, dip shit music on this vid? Looks like the Heritage Foundation with it's corporate backers enjoying laughing at the expense of working people.
@pfreem8 You say, "people will still put it in their cart because its cheaper.", meaning folks will buy cheaper, foreign made products. I agree, they will. So? If Liberty is desirable, folks OUGHT to be able to do what they want, with their own money. Now we agree, outsourcing occurs, because of price. To increase job creation, and to reduce outsourcing, policies that REDUCE costs must be followed. Libs like the opposite policy, increase corp taxes and costs.
@luvcheney1 The sad part about all of this shit is unamerican pukes like you two that don't care if Americans even work on an even playing field. If I had my way I would ship traitors like you off on a slow boat to china. hahaha I would get a real kick out of that.
All the things you're seeing the Republicans advocating for, from deregulation right down to the vouchers for education and health care, have been used in other countries to disenfranchise the lower and middle classes and create a one-party state ruled by the elite. It worked in Chile and Argentina, why wouldn't it work here?

The RICH pay no Social Security tax on all earned or unearned income above $106,800.
Someone making $100,000 a year pays 100% of this tax while someone making a million, only pays 10% of this tax! The playing filed is RIGGED for the rich.
Economists say if you put this tax on ALL earned income for millionaires you could immediatley DOUBLE the payouts on current checks pulling 15 million out of poverty and the system would last to infinity!

When conservative principles are actually put into practice then they work. That is what scares them the most.

@teabaggersblow Oil supply/ demand is allocated by price. Low prices reduce profitiblility, discourage& lower production. This is good, when there are surpluses of supply, in relation to usage. High prices reduce demand, encourage higher production as oilfields that were unprofitable at low prices now become profitable at high prices. This is good, when demand exceeds supply.

World demand is rising because China, India, and other nations are getting richer, and wanting oil. Big deal. When there is imbalance, price allocates. Big deal. Would you prefer ration tickets? Let Obama tell you what to pay, how much you are "allowed"?

@luvcheney1 Tell me something that means something and not all the republican talking points with a dose of the clap. Typical teatard ................like herding cats. No wonder this country is divided . That dumb fucking teatard Joe Walsh calling the pres a liar on camera and can't even support his own fucking litter of rats. Eating cheese on the American dime. Your very own tea party hero. Feed your rats loser.

@teabaggersblow When speculators think shortages of oil are coming, they buy contracts for future delivery, and this causes prices to climb. Higher prices discourage the use of oil, and encourage production, because it has become more profitable, and fields that were not profitable before become so. Less usage, and more production just means balance is restored, at the new price. Everything on earth works this way. Big harvest of oranges?? Prices fall. Big orange freeze, prices rise. Big deal

@luvcheney1 hehehe Are you still hearing voices and debating yourself. All oil refineries have the capacity to buy and sell gasoline. They choose this option depending upon contracts from their buyers and sellers. I have seen whole city blocks of units that only produce gasoline yet turn a profit on another product in the same unit within a 2 week period. Wake the fuck up.

@teabaggersblow OMG, businesses making profits? OMG. Largest US refiners are Exxon, and Valero. Exxon after tax profit, as % of revenue is 7.9%, and Valero`s is 1.1%, in 2010. Valero`s business is far more retail and refinery oriented that Exxon`s. This means refining is less profitable, as % of revenue, that crude exploration and production. Even so, using Exxons figure as base for profit on todays $3.11 wholes gas cost, means Big Oil makes 25 cents/gal profit. Big Deal, who cares? 25 cents?

@luvcheney1 I think learning calculas may be your cup of tea. I have never seen anyone go off on so many tangents from one post to another. Claculas does not rely on common sense solutions. It is finite and people like you have parameters that never look at the big picture but you are good at pleasing yourself with mundane attacks of the obvious.

@teabaggersblow "calculas"? "Claculas"? OMG. Other than proving you are unable to spell, note avoiding a rebuttal, again, as usual.

@teabaggersblow At least we pay taxes, the bottom half only pays 3% of the income taxes. I suggest they pay their fair share. Why the fuck is all this my responsibility? Who made me the one to support you? I really dont care about anybody, but my own family. You go take care of yours. Thats fair.

@pfreem8 You say, "people will still put it in their cart because its cheaper.", meaning folks will buy cheaper, foreign made products. I agree, they will. So? If Liberty is desirable, folks OUGHT to be able to do what they want, with their own money. Now we agree, outsourcing occurs, because of price. To increase job creation, and to reduce outsourcing, policies that REDUCE costs must be followed. Libs like the opposite policy, increase corp taxes and costs.

@luvcheney1 The sad part about all of this shit is unamerican pukes like you two that don't care if Americans even work on an even playing field. If I had my way I would ship traitors like you off on a slow boat to china. hahaha I would get a real kick out of that.

All the things you're seeing the Republicans advocating for, from deregulation right down to the vouchers for education and health care, have been used in other countries to disenfranchise the lower and middle classes and create a one-party state ruled by the elite. It worked in Chile and Argentina, why wouldn't it work here?
