Shame on the Republicans

How can you stand up for them any longer?   Even those who blindly follow, come on.   Cuts to Medicare and Social Secuirty--up to 21% by 2021, but NO cuts, or repeals to ANY tax breaks to the super wealthy or the Oil Industry, as proposed by our caring and GREAT republicans.  Great SHARED sacrifice budget.  Many corporations do not even pay taxes--ie--GE, but the middle class, the most vulnerable, pay the most taxes, and our govt, and the super rich--nobody here by the way--are phasing us out, to achieve cheap labor so they get even richer.  Thanks Rebups!!!  Wow.  If we don't do something soon, we will have another depression.  

Your right bandit.  I hope one day you get to live in a world free of republicans or for that matter anything other than liberal democrats.  Everything will be right in the world.  Just remember though in that perfect world, gone too will be the tax base of all those truly evil republicans.  But I'm sure you and the rest would gladly give that up. While your at it, don't forget to get rid of capitalism.  Who needs the ambition it breeds anyway.

I will receive much more in social security than I put in if I can live long enough. That cut does not bother me. I for one do not expect the government to have to take care of me when I become a senior citizen.

The wealth of the republicans, if they were to truly disappear, wouldn't disappear with them. It would simply transfer somewhere else. It's not so much republican vs democrat. It's rich and powerful vs the other 90 whatever percent of us there are.

I would argue that we no longer have true Capitalism. The corruption of the political system has made the environment too toxic for Capitalism. Remember,  Capitalism is a good thing for everyone in the end game. This is no longer the case, hence the death or fracture of true Capitalism. When industries can regulate themselves to their singular benefit, at the expense of all other capacities of the economy, then it is clear that Capitalism is lost and no longer the proper terminology for the wretched economic system at hand.

What we need is a form of managed capitalism with transparency & competent oversight without it squelching honest enterprise. Whether that's possible or not anymore is arguable if not unlikely -

Do you honestly feel the GOP is worse than the Dems.  The same Dems that passed the largest budget in history and have not passed another two years running, essentially making the crisis budget a default one.  Why do you feel the Dems are your friend?  Do you work?

I am well aware of the big business give aways from the gop but also the dems as well as the keynsian military spending of the gop and the massive keynsian dems spending on everything else.  how is it that a nanny state for losers made by the dems helps us out any better that oil company give aways?

find me another nation in history where a hard working poor man could rise above their station?

encouraging wealth transfer exactly how? at the point of a gun? 


side note....and obamas plan is exactly what? on paper please, would love to see one.

Yup that is called Social Liberalism

Typical response because of a typical comment.  I am by no means a true republican.  What bothers me about your comment is that like most left leaners all problems are due to those on the right or have an R beside their name.  Never any issue with the other side of the coin.  I personally think they're both cespools.  But at least I see that.  Democratic politicians are for the most part full of shit.  They themselves are wealthy elitists that have chosen their path because they know they can keep a following.  Whats the old saying...poor people have been voting democrat for 50 yrs and guess what, their still poor. And by the way, just what is their fair share?  What you say it is?  How about if you set the rate and 5 yrs from now, you need a little more? Is it again time for them to pay their fair share again?  I dont disagree that the wealthy can afford to pony up more and if spent responsibly, they should see it as their duty to do so.  I'm just sick as shit of hearing about how its the sole job of the successful to pick up the slack for the deadbeats and the uninspired who see fit to stay on the gov' teet.

i like the way cashin says it better.  the words social liberalism make me want to vomit in my mouth.

I think you need a reality check

is that like a stimulus check or a hernia check.
 a video of our current status is more an indictment of keynsian liberal stupidity than an obituary of this great country.

in the end Denmark will be owned by another country and over run with muslims while we still sing the star spangled banner.

looks like our liberal leader has his puppets all wound up

lets get those evil rich people

rather than give every family $17000, this administration has transfered more wealth to corporate behemoths and banksters than any other in history

and its the rpubs fault

quantitative easing

GE and its criminal CEO is obamas BFF, but its the repubs fault GE pays no taxes

more than half of this country pays no federal income tax and its the repubs fault

lets get our pitchforks boys, those damn repubs are responsible for everythingand if not them its those damn rich people

wsc - am afraid I agree

how about doing the government influence removal for everyone as well as the loophole closing for everyone.  maybe those job giving corporations dont need to be crushed under the mighty red fist of the heroic proletariat.  maybe they just might do business ethically and make some money too.

Not one real economist can project anything other than default without massive entitlement reform with Medicare being the biggest one of all by far.  This is not a topic that can even be debated.  The following will link you to david walkers comeback america website go to page 12 and read on medicare.  he is non partisan

• Restoring Fiscal Sanity

The super elite rich do have unfair loopholes and advantages.  I still am a conservative and will always be one.  RINOs are my enemy in addition to many others.

I looked it up.  I am in the top 1.7%..woohoo,  lucky me.  i can tell you it has been a very hard road and i darn well earned it.

bandit - we have been in a depression for 2+ years. without massive government spending we would be ticking -5% on GDP instead of +2% growth. just wait until the US dollar is fully destroyed or devalued by half. think times are rough now, just wait

i look forward to august 2nd or 3rd...balanced budget overnight

i can hope

Unlike the President, the Republicans put forth a budget and a debt reduction plan.

I guess this poster thinks money grows on trees or something.
