Funny how the “greedy” people are the ones keeping the nation running. Heads of industry, people who work their asses off, entrepreneurs, etc. Greedy fucks, why don’t they give all their money to the people who aren’t motivated enough to go out and make a buck (and, hence, aren’t greedy).

WTF are you clapping for? You’ve already said you’ve voting democrat, the ones who are doing exactly the opposite of what you’re clapping about. :ham:

In case you missed it, they’re the ones that pushed through the requirement that people who didn’t pay anything in income tax still get a $300 income tax refund.

Like most people you’ve fallen for the “Bush = bad, vote democrat”. I don’t agree with a lot of what Bush has done either but it sure as hell isn’t going to push me over to the other side. You know what you get when you switch sides? People like Spitzer.

Yeah, Spitzer, the guy who is offering a 21% pay increase to the NY legislature, one of the highest paid yet annually nominated most disfunctional and corrupt legislatures in the country, while facing a 4 billion dollar budget deficit. His plan is to raise taxes and fees while cutting spending to schools to fill the gap and give these raises. Yep, that’s great for an already failing NYS economy.

There was a thread about it and some people got past the short sided view and actually saw the benefits of the plan. Its actually pretty brilliant.

My boss did. He came back from lunch bitching, “And how much did it cost for those retards to send everyone in the country this letter explaining a plan that anyone not living under a rock already knew about”.

I \<3 my boss.
