Dear repubicans, there is absolutely no sane, valid, defensible reason to . . . . .
   
. . . . . to maintain any tax cut for people earning over $200K.

We cannot afford this. Even if we could, it has not benefited the greater society in any way, shape, or form.

Period.

4. I don't understand how they can even go there politically.
   
Hey, voters! We want to keep giving people way richer than you a big tax break. Oh, and we got nothing for you. You good with that?

WTF?

You know what DUmmy the rich not getting taxed to death and a stronger economy would benefit me much more than the govt making everyone poor. And you goons have the nerve to say I vote against my own best interests.

14. Yes
   
but they are not the ones fighting tooth and nail for tax cuts for people who neither need them nor deserve them.

Yeah you get to decide how much money we deserve to keep out of our own paychecks.  :banghead:

Why is it every problem under the sun could be solved if only we taxed people to death?  :banghead:

Why do they think that $200K is such a huge amount of money?  It's barely a living wage in NYC, LA or Chicago.  Especiallly NYC, where city taxes are such that you might end up with 50 cents left in your pocket.

$200,000 a year is jack in the NY Metro area because of the cost of living.

Wasting an ounce of time worrying and obsessing over what someone else has that you don`t is the least productive thing a person can do Stinky.
There is nothing good to ever come of it.

Grow the eff up.

Two things, neighbor . . .

1)  He has a bunch, as Coach and others here have pointed out.

2)  Let him worry.  It shortens his life. :fuelfire:

Without a doubt he does everything he can to hide income and protect assets.
They are all the biggest hypocrites to ever live.

Dear Stinky the Moonbat, you have it precisely reversed: there is no sane, defensible reason to raise taxes on anyone, especially in the middle of a recession. Back to Econ 101 for you. The "greater good" of society is served by the wealthy having more to invest.

But the "greater good" should NOT be the primary focus of tax policy, and recession or not, not only should the Bush tax cuts remain in place in perpetuity, rates should be cut further; they're punitive even as they are. First and foremost, simple, ethical fairness to the population whose wealth it is should be the overriding, guiding principle for all tax-rate setting by our elected representatives. It is offensive in the extreme to write that "we can't afford" tax cuts. That is the language of confiscation, the language that says that the money WE earn with OUR labor or investment is government's to apportion first. That is wrong, unethical, dictatorial, and it's a large part of why the American Revolution was fought.

Fortunately and happily, good fiscal policy happens to coincide with what is right and ethical--and in the case of Dem/liberal tax policy, the reverse is true: bad economics coincides with what is morally wrong and tyrannical.

It is government overspending that we can't afford.


Period.

Think about it.  This isn't PsyOps.  This is grief.  What stage of grief is 'Bargaining'?  I can't keep them straight.  They've spent so much time thinking they are king of the mountain and this close to November they see the writing on the walls.

Dear Stinky

There is absolutely no sane, valid, defensible reason for you to comment on economics, which you obviously have no grasp of. Stick to the quality of kitty litter you use, or the joy you feel when Sparlky lets you out of the basement.

Thanks,

Splashdown

Since most small business in this country makes well over 200 grand, you stoooopid POS, they will not be able to put your so called "middle" class back to work!

You are by far one of the most ignorant DUmmies at the DUmp!

I thought you asshats were for the poor in this country? Oh, that's right, you just want to give them enough welfare so they will vote for your socialist slavery! Gotcha!

Asshole!

Well, this could be a fun fill in the blanks game! Surely we could come up with something better than that, in or out of moonbat mode.

I'm confused. For years we heard that Bush didn't cut any taxes except for rich people. Now they want to extend all of the Bush tax cuts except the ones for rich people.... Something doesn't add up.  ::)

What the DUmmies (in particular Stinky) also don't realize is that even if you taxed EVERYONE making over $200K at 100 percent, it still wouldn't even come CLOSE to covering the spending spree under the 'Rats.

Psst--that means YOU'RE gonna get hit too, DUmbasses.  Even worse than the so-called "rich".

The under $250K share of the tax cuts amounted to Trillions, the over $250K share, only in the hundreds of billions.

Maybe it is time for the producers to hold a little strike.  What would happen if everyone that grossed over 250K a year stopped working at $249.999.  Let these economic idiots see how the producers support the largest share of the tax burden in this country.

It's been noted if they go ahead with this BS, the amount they tax the rich, will last DC about 2 frikkin' days. The whole idea is to promote class warfare in order to push their socialist agenda! It has absolutely nuthin' to do with revenue!
