> (1931-2005) offered the following observation several years ago and it bears poignant significance today: You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the rich out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply the wealth by dividing it."

good quote

It’s funny reading all of these posts like this. I am on ~10 message boards and this is being posted everywhere.

Where was the common sense when the election was going on? Couldn’t you retarded Obama supporters see what he was going to do beforehand?

Because taxing multi-millionaires slightly higher than we are now is equivalent to 50% of the people working to support the other 50% that sits on their couch all day smoking pot and eating cereal while laughing at all of the free money they’re receiving.

dumb.

now that all the ‘multi-millionaires’ were afraid to get their huge bonuses, there is even less income taxes collected… so the taxes on the rich are going to need to be significantly higher than now just to break even. idiocy at it’s best… you get paid when people pay income tax… so lessen everyones income why?

I agree. We need to drastically cut spending on stupid shit like our overseas military presence, reform health care and end welfare/social security, etc.  
and then LOWER taxes on EVERYONE…

However, this nation and our government has decided that’s not the way they want to go. They want to continue to waste all of this money, and someone has to pay for it. Our capitalistic economy has sucked most of the wealth out of the lower and middle class, therefore the only people that have the money to pay for it are the rich people.

:dunno:
