@TheMethadoneParty Typical teabagger reply. Why can't you answer the question instead of changing the subject? Here's a list of the top 10 states that get the most taxes for each tax dollar collected. 8 voted for McPalin. Once again: Why should liberal states pay for the survival of conservative states? New Mexico $2.03 Mississippi $2.02 Alaska $1.84 Louisiana $1.78 West Virginia $1.76 North Dakota $1.68 Alabama $1.66 South Dakota $1.53 Kentucky $1.51 Virginia $1.51

@Jujuman2003 ha ha ha you called yourself a liberal. ha ha ha how gross. Why dont you go live in N Korea and see how u like it. ha ha what a fool!!!

@TheMethadoneParty Yawn, another ignorant rightwinger talking about work and dependency. The truth is red states get way more taxes than they pay. I live in California and for every dollar we pay in taxes, we only get 78 cents back while red states like Palin's Alaska gets $1.84 back! So why can't conservatives pay for their own shit instead of relying on liberals for pay for them? Answer this question, douchebag.

@Jujuman2003 How naive you are. Keep standing there with your hand out. WORK and take RESPONSIBILITY for yourself!! Do not depend on anyone but GOD to take care of you. The government is corrupt, we all know this and a big percentage of our taxes go in the pockets of corrupt politicians and the corporations who support them. The individual is much more important than the "collectivism" the dirty liberals talk about. Localization with free market principals is the way out of this. Not big gov!

The only driving forces behind Republican "ideas" are racism, homophobia, and Christian fundamentalism. If you understand that, you'd understand the Republican Party as it is in reality.

Welfare Reform should be a MAJOR topic in this debate. Generations after Generations are being raised and taught how to abuse the system.

Mandatory drug testing would be a good way to STOP the abuse.

""I can't get a job, because I can't pass the drug test"

Shouldn't be an excuses.!
