  • Republicans hate teachers so much. Why? No Republican wants to propose raising teacher salaries. Quite the opposite actually. Teachers are barely scraping by in my home state of Idaho. I'm moving.

  • Purely educated?

  • @calimar28 I'm not stealing their money. A good thing to do with that money is to invest!

  • @TheCortez714 Republicans only care about money, but you dont? Then leave the rich alone and stop trying to steal their money. You see, the dems make a bunch of federal programs that do nothing, then they cant pay for them, then they say "lets tax the rich". No, how about "lets get rid of the spending programs that dont do anything?

  • @Atrofia2 Screw you and your class warfare bullshit. Im so sick and tiered of hearing it. You want to make more? THEN WORK AND TAKE RISKS AND MAKE A COMPANY DAMN IT, stop telling us we should steal from the rich and give it to the poor. Robin Hood was a fag in tights. And you liberals are embarresing and pathetic.

  • @Neosaigo Wrong. Ever since 1913 the govt has been EXTREMLEY liberal. How about that wonderful tax bracket system we got? How about the federal reserve system? How about the entitlement system, medicare, medicade, welfare, etc - DOnt tell me this govt isnt liberal. And it has FAILED. THat's right, we are 15 trillion in debt, so socialism has failed.

  • @calimar28 Actually, the U.S government have never been liberal.

    If it did, we would be similar to Germany's economy "A.K.A We would still be making stuff instead of outsourcing".

    I am glad you live in a fact free world.

  • i miss Cenk on msnbc

  • @Moionfire Yes the 16th amendment was ratified on February 3, 1913 and the Federal Reserve Act was enacted on December 23, 1913. You don't find this a little strange? The income tax is used to pay the interest that is incurred when the Federal Reserve prints money and loans it to the government.

  • @calimar28 Im not sure if you are aware but they are doing very bad at the moment. They are acting like little kids and their stupidity is costing them followers every second.
