You comparing me to a future hall of famer. I'm flattered.

But me posting angry? That's not even correct English little fella..

You post passive aggressively like 14truckdriver..

I mention the 3 billion to israel because the next country is Egypt which isn't' even on the same planet in terms of aid they receive..

What do you think a solution would be for this? Obviously we all know why corporations choose to move jobs overseas. However isn't it somewhat contradictory to say that these corporations are doing this country a favor by making as much money as possible, when it means sending jobs overseas? 

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for making as much money as possible. However, there has to be a certain point where it does become detrimental for America and its citizens for companies to keep sending jobs overseas in an effort to increase profits.

Dirt:

That Starbucks looked good.

Even though it looks more like something a San Francisco Lib would drink than a Southern conservative "Right Wing Extremist" would drink.

It also looks like if I spilled it I would have a tough time getting the stain out of my white sheet and hood.

That sounds more like something a Michelle Obama supporter would say, not a Ron Paul supporter.

I don't concern myself with what companies move overseas or how much a company makes It has no bearing on my life.

I am concerned with how much money our govt taxes us and how much it wastes.

Govt money is taxpayer money. I look at what corporations make and how they decide to spend that money as their own choice since it is their money.

Now i understand you right wingers arent good with math problems, but even you guys should be able to figure out what happens when the countries population goes up, while the countries jobs go down.

Yup thats right, more govt help needed for people.

And who can we thank for that?  Those very rich fatcat corporations who keep sending the jobs overseas, while still recieving big fat corporate welfare checks from all of us taxpayers.

So thank you mr. corporate fatcat for destroying this once great country.

Someday, even the right wing nutcases might realize this, until then, keep talking your right winger trash that the corporations love to hear you talking aboutWhen the fatcats go to bed at night, they must laugh their butts off, knowing they still got suckers believing their BS

What checks are you referring to? Our government sends checks to corporations? This I'd like to see...

Stay disciplined and manage your bankroll

I didn't know Michelle Obama asked you questions? You must be quite proud then. 

I think it would seem that Corporations money IS taxpayer money in some instances. Maybe it should be of some concern to you?

Right.

Where Stilin takes to the Internet to claim $3 billion, on a budget of $3.17 trillion, is a cause for debt.

After, mind you, specific details of the federal budget were provided for one to see, for example, that the federal government spends 20x on "welfare" than they spend on Israel.

Where Stilin takes to the Internet to claim that the $2 billion Egypt receives (Egypt has averaged about $2 billion a year since 1979), 2/3 of what Israel receives, is on a "different planet" in terms of spending.

If you assume it is the govt's money then yes. I don't. I assume 100% of the money is for the corporation (and individual) and then the govt taxes that amount. It sounds like you, and liberals, assume it is the govt's money, and allow corporations (and individuals) to keep a certain portion of that.

Why exactly were you supporting Ron Paul?

No no no, that's not how it works. Many of the left call it "corporate welfare" when corporations have to pay LESS taxes than they previously did. IMO, its based upon a flawed assumption that all dollars generated or received by corporations or individuals inherently belong first to the government, and that companies and individuals are getting "welfare" or a favor/"tax cut" from the government when they collect less of your dollars every tax season.

You don't think the TARP bailout is taxpayer money? That's what I was referring to.

So you're saying that $3 billion is little to the US okay... little fella, little pal....  What alternate universe do you live in?

I  have never said that Egypt's should not be reduced....?  You just cant make this stuff up folks... Their aid should also be extremly reduced but it is on a different planet than Israel's granted Israel already receives about 2 billion in private donations from citizens as well Egpyt and Jordan's is a direct result of Israel...

You're really a weirdo the way you engage others on the internet. Like I'm serious, you exhibit an extremely anti-social personality....

Look at how you sound....

Many on the left also consider legal tax deductions as corporate welfare. The oil companies are a prime example. They put a large amount of money back into R&D and get to take that as a legal deduction, thus reducing what they owe in taxes on profits. This is not corporate welfare, it's our tax system at work. GE paid no taxes on profits recently because of this and a tax credit that they got for each wind turbine they created whether it was sold or not. As a result GE got a credit for a built up inventory that may or may not ever be a sold product. Corporate welfare? No. Stupid tax code? Yes.

So you're saying that $3 billion is little to the US oka

Notice how when demonstrated to be spectaularly wrong, you simply move the goal posts.

Why don't you tell us what % $3 billion is of $3.17 trillion?
Oh, let me help you: 0.0008%

but it is on a different planet than Israel's 

Um, no it isn't. Egypt has averaged about $2 billion a year since 1979, 2/3rds of what Israel gets.

So you can stop repeating this crazy claim.

And I never said you said Egypt's foreign aid shouldn't be reduced.

Of course when you're busy posting stuff that is easily debunked, you have to engage in straw men.

Remember, 0.0008% of federal spending is driving up the debt!!!!

In 2010, the United States accumulated over $3.5 billion in new debt each and every day. That’s more than $2 million per minute.

For FY 2013: The US government now borrows approximately $5 billion every business day

Probably because of foreign aid to Israel!!!

$3 billion in aid to Israel is a lot of money but to put it in perspective..... less than one day of interest on our national debt!

The statement that aid to Israel is a large reason why were are in debt is ridiculous.

Um in fact Egypts aid is on another planet than israel so you are wrong.

Just like you were wrong about gum permits, ga y marriage, gun shows, the list goes on and on and on..

And I enjoy sitting back and watching you squirm..

While you try to engage in anti-social behavior. Like really 14truckdriver I'm dying over here of laughter. Please!!! Keep going!!!

I bet truck driving can be boring too huh?

Yes!
Because you say so, too!
Egypt has averaged about $2 billion a year since 1979, 2/3rds of what Israel gets

A totally sane conclusion is to shout "different planet!"

"Fact" doesn't mean what you think it means.

Nice projection.

Mind you, by a person who when confronted with actual facts that refute the absurd claims, simply repeats said claims.

I think you should go on talking about people's behavior on the Internet. Really. You should.
