[Traveshamockery]

Apparently expecting personal responsibility of people is now barbaric.

****ing rightwing barbarian
   
Costco's magazine for members recently asked whether income tax should continue to be taken out of unemployment insurance. Some rightwing shit-for-brains heartless turd wrote in this month's magazine that unemployment insurance should be subject to income taxes because:


    Accountability - being responsible for your situation - is more of what is needed in our country. therefore, every possible incentive to getting off unemployment insurance as soon as possible is needed.



Braindead bastard.

Thing is, politics, like almost everything else, goes in cycles.

The DUmb****s are on the top now--and will be on the bottom again.

And this time, we conservatives will remember--and act accordingly.

Hate to rain on your parade, but "we conservatives" spend an awful lot of time trying to water down our principles so that the other side will like us more.  (It doesn't work - they still hate us - but that's the closest thing I have to a reason why we keep kissing their collective(ist) ass...)

What evidence do you have that we are cured of 'Battered Biotches Syndrome'?

Good point.  I'm sick of said "con"servatives.  But, we need them to be able to regain control . . .

I disagree. I think we need to purge the party of such cowards. I think after Bam Bam and the rest of his partners in crime, including the stinkin' RINO's, continue putting their hands in our pockets, conservatism will be born again in this country.

I just don't see the American people ignoring all that they are doing to the way of life that built this country.

1. Yep, that's good thinking -
 cut the amount of actual cash the unemployed get - so WHAT if it's their tax money coming back to them? ...

Their money?

Then why have public funds? Why not just mandate each citizen has to set-up a private savings account to be used in the event of unemployment? The money they spend on savings would go to insurance the issuer of which would naturally invest thus keeping the money in the economy and out of the government's hands.
