@RocktheStageNYC wow, so... It's nice to know we're judged as jealous when some of us have no control over some of the things that lead us to our economic troubles.
Also, GWB didn't exactly earn his money. If he did, please, give me documentation and statistics, and by that I mean reliable sources. Furthermore, most people know GWB owns oil. Which is how he directly profited from America invading a country with oil.
Really though, it's not a crime to help your fellow man.

@Banelion001 - ah making the stupid argument of "nobody succeeds alone"? Just like an ass of a politician. OK - all those roads are built with tax payer money. Taxes come from what? - jobs. Jobs come from where? - employers. People produce the products how - by having jobs. Jobs come from where? - employers. Education is paid with what? Money. Money comes from where? Jobs. Jobs come from where? Employers. Without business, society doesn't work.

Yea all the workers and the rest of society did was produce all the products he peddles, built all the roads he peddles them on, developed and maintained the legal system he requires to be able to do it and also pay the repressive forces to enforce the system, paid to educate his workforce and possibly even him. Clearly it was ALL HIM that did all the hard work. O wait, were talking about the OWNER. Yeah owning is extra hard work too, clearly.

The spotted owl omelet - whites only. XD
That line cracks me up so much. I think it's very clever. And I think it's unfortunately one that's easy to overlook in the song. People who so to say DON'T see what he did there.

My liberal mother married a conservative man just last year. Unfortunately, she hasn't managed to change his mind yet. Miraculously, and I'm not certain how this works, they can actually enjoy being with one another and love one another. I don't understand how this works.

@wolfofsummerbreeze - get your statistics in order before you start spouting nonsense. The top 1% pay 39% of all taxes, the top 50% pay 97% of all taxes.
The owner of a company did all the hard work to build that company, takes all the financial risks, pays all the taxes and insurance. The employee did none of that. Therefore the owner deserves to reap as much of the the benefits if his sacrifice as possible. Life isn't fair - better get used to it.

@SilverDawnBat - actually George Bush DID earn his money. Do you know he owns a multitude of oil wells? I bet you didn't. Lumping Madoff in with Bush is reaching for an argument.
The facts are plain - you are envious and jealous of the productive and prosperous because you are not. Stop whining about how "unfair" it is and do something in your own life to change your economic status.
-
@Jowind - not true. The four years following the implementation of Bush tax cuts saw an increase in revenue to the Fed govt. higher than any in the history of the US. Thats documented FACT. So your argument about the Laffer curve being refuted "by academic economists" is rendered useless.

Sadly, the rich don't actually pay as much in taxes as the poor. While I do think that you have a right to make money, and you probably deserve money for your hard work, you should be paid only about twice as much as the lowest person you employ as full-time staff. That's a lot more money for your effort, some of it which you don't need, and I mean NEED. It still would leave a ton, if used wisely, for comforts. And fairness is something to strive for everywher

@rrmjvand What the hell is your problem with Gibraltar?! You leave monolithic promontories alone.
I believe there is a song lyric for you though: "Though cowards flinch and traitors sneer, We'll keep the red flag flying here."
Youtube fails at ads. I'm staring at two different conservative messages, one featuring Anne herself. I don't think Adbot understands sarcasm.

@Sasukekiss It's ez to explain why we crash and burn horribly. It's not our taxes are to low or to high. It's our bloated war budget, but whenever someone offers slashing the war budget for healthcare, it becomes socialist bull crap.
Why are we americans willing to spend on ending lives rather than saving lives?
Who the fuck knows.
