The Republicans want to completely end taxes for corporations and the super rich while at the same time raising taxes on the middle class and poor, Typical Republican Ideology

@jatt5at you sir are a retard. The rich have so many tax cuts and barely pay jack. warren buffett said he'd pay more taxes no problem, if you make more than a million you have so many tax breaks it is just plain stupid.

@TheDevineBeing Of course, but people openly accept that the american far right is BS, here in Britain the government has managed to convince people what it's doing is right.

There is no such thing as ANY body here paying nothing.... add in all the taxes from sales to service. DUH!

329 IDIOTS disliked this? (1%ers chiming in?????)

@TheRevolutionCanada The really scary part? simple minded working class republicans supporting getting their own throats cut (along with ours!)

[terceldude]

@Christfollower29 Obama is awesome! Don't hate bro!

@TheRevolutionCanada This is SOOOO typical of Socialist and Marxist behavior. 47% of ALL AMERICANS don't pay for entitlements. WARREN BUFFET DOESN'T TELL THE TRUTH! All investments are taxed before they profit and then it's another 15%. This guy is actually paid by Obama! Millions are on Food Stamps and why would they want to work anymore? This guys is so wrong and wants you ALL to live on the tit of the government! Republicans believe in Freedom and Independence. GO LIVE IN GREECE!

Our wallet -> IRS coffers -> federal coffers -> Interest paid to the federal reserve and other debts -> money gone, borrow money to pay for everything else. This is why Greece is rioting, they've had enough with a central banking neo-feudalism and working so damn hard towards absolutely nothing! The Greek gov't passes austerity which hurts people, just so they can keep throwing money away into the EU! Wake up, America - it's so far beyond Republican/Democrat.

This is totally true, but it's only half of the picture... the only reason the clowns in either party want to raise taxes is to spend it, and keep us working for them. Look into how the government paid for itself pre-1913. Look into how all the money the governments take from us goes to the banking class. This is not a left-right issue. The two-party lie has to come to an end! They're on the same team, and as long as we believe they're two teams and that one of them is right, we LOSE.

Resorting to name calling should not hamper anybody's points. If you think it does then you're trying to poison the well, which would lead to a fallacious argument on your behalf. If you're in it for the debate, then ignore the name calling and attack the points. I personally am in it for the name calling.

These Republicans sound much like the Tory party here in England.
