Dave Ramsey--Butt Scratching and Bass Fishing

We as an American society have totally reversed our thinking and now demonize those who work hard and become successful. We want to punish those who earn a lot and redistribute the wealth to those who don't. Barack Obama promises to tax those who make more than $250,000 very heavily because they are "too wealthy." Who is the government to decide this? Nationally syndicated radio talk show host and Fox Business Network TV's Dave Ramsey weighs in hard.

If you want to earn more, then do what you have to do to reach that goal. Live on a budget, get more education, work smarter...whatever needs to be done. If you shoot at nothing, you will hit it every time. Dave Ramsey's total money makeover is the best plan to help you from living paycheck to paycheck. Forcible taking money from the wealthy and redistributing it to the poor is socialism. They should be able to give their money of their own free will.

[truthforamerica]

That comment shows how ignorant you are. The bottom 50% of income earners only pay 3% of the tax load. The Earned Income Tax Credit is a handout by the government that you probably get. Most of the taxes paid by the middle class......you are a moron.

[kuhchicken]

Amen! Kudos to you, truthforamerica, for posting this. Hurray for Dave Ramsey! This message needs to get out loud and clear or the socialist agenda mongers will surely take over this great country. I hope it is not too late, but we are in a seriously leftward shift.

The best thing for government to do for me is to leave me alone!!!

Bullshit...church ery Sunday.o yes he is a good man..yea,yea.just because someone's mind is manic he works so much to make money beyond his needs instead of soakin up mother nature and spending time w his fam,does not make the other man lazy.lol.bring on the bashing.lol

And it's not like Dave Ramsey has a vested interest in preventing rich people from having their taxes raised, or anything.

[kellilynnhoward]

That's why we love you Dave....keep shootin' straight my man...

[Shane Jewell]

dude totally got that much out of it but its ridiculous to talk about fishing like its a bobber type fatass thing.

[Robert F Morrow]

sjewell, he is not talking about you specifically. I understand what you are saying. I have even taken part in two McDonald's Big Bass tournaments in on Lake Fork, Texas as well as my parents owning lakefront property on Lake Fork, so I know a few things about Bass fishing, guides and the people that make up the genre. And no, he is not talking about you specifically, it's analogous to the position that nobody deserves the wealth somebody else has achieved.

[Shane Jewell]

once again ppl talking about something they dont know i support a family with my fishing so whats the difference in you sittin in a nine to five im out doing something i love and making money doing

[Robert F Morrow]

sjewel168587, come on man, you are missing the point. You are getting all wrapped around the axle because your feelings got hurt.

[lsnows]

Dave is more than just the MAN! He is my personal hoxha, guru and shaman.

[Shane Jewell]

dave i hear you in the fact about taxing someone unfairly but dont talk about what you think you know is bass fishing. Talk with KVD. He is a multimillion dollar industry in himself with his bass fishing. Us bass fisherman dont sit, dont scratch anymore than you, and misguided? you are an idiot a rich idiot. But do not talk about something you know nothing of...
