Need some research help, DUers
   
At my work, somebody posted one of those "I'll keep my MONEY, my GUNS, and my FREEDOM. You can keep the CHANGE" anti-Obama signs on a bulletin board.

A couple of weeks ago I posted "A Day in the Life of Joe Middle-Class Republican", but it vanished late last week.

Surprise surprise.


Anyway, I was thinking of posting a specific reply to each point made in the sign, starting with "money".

Specifically, I was looking for the following graphs:

    * a 100-year graph of real manufacturing wages

    * a graph showing the percentage of income tax paid by individuals vs. corporations from inception to now

    * and maybe a graph showing the percent the median family pays in income taxes from inception to now




Or if you know where I could find tables, I could make my own spreadsheet and graph.


I can do the "guns" thing on my own, but if anybody also knows where I could get a timeline of Bush/Congressional violations of our freedoms, I'd appreciate it as well. You know, starting the warrantless illegal wiretapping/datamining, repeal of Possse Comitatus, Hebeas Corpus, any executive orders he issued, etc.



I tried Google, but didn't have much luck.



Thanks in advance!

With all of these requests by DUmbasses, I think many are starting to question their own beliefs and support for this dipshit in office. Seems they really want to be reaffirmed.
NAMBLA is a left-wing organization.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

It's nice to see someone's mole has been appointed a moderator at the DUmp.

That Krispos posted again a few down, displaying a graph which I don't really think will help his thesis.  It shows personal taxes and social payments as a percent of total public income.  The line goes up and up and up and up and up till ones blood boils.

7. Aren't y'all getting more in your paychecks?
 Remember the tax reduction? Compare paycheck stubs from December to May. I'm on SS, and our payments are adjusted by some index. For the first time in history, they will not increase next year due to the terrible economic index in the last quarter of 2008. Due, of course to Bush theivery.

You don't need a graph to figure out what percentage of corporate taxes are paid by individuals.  That answer is easy:

100%

Corporations DO NOT pay taxes!  They merely collect them....

It's been rumored about for a while that someone has a ModMole over there....
