The White House economics guy mentions a little trimming and the primitives, true to form, go crazy.
Some lovely words of encouragement this morning:

15. Hey Gene, austerity is not pro-growth fiscal policy.

Unless you haven't noticed. ****ing Republican asshole.

Anyone ever consider the possibility that the President never hears an actual word from someone that isn't a multimillionaire? This is kind of policy we can expect when we only listen to righties.

17. I don't think they're going to get it until........







a couple of million people "occupy" D.C. for an indeterminate length of time (rotation of demonstrators would be OK ) shouting "No Cuts! No Cuts!" every time and all the time Congress is in session.
Could you imagine the smell if they followed through? The police wouldn't need hoses for crowd control, it would be to give them a bath.

29. Where is the line in the sand now?

It it's not a presidential "legacy," it's apparently not going to be a fight.
Pretty sure it's over in the closet with the red line on Syria.

25. First off, they are social programs to help americans; NOT entitlements

They were EARNED GOD DAMN IT!!! Quit using RW jargon!

Secondly, our social safety net has been slashed to the bone and ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
 
Finally, cutting social spending to get "stimulus" is ****ing retarded. Social spending IS Stimulus.
 
"Pro-Growth" has become double speak for ****ing the average american so that the rich can make more money, and has nothing to do with actual economics or economic growth.
Earned by who now?  And going back to how welfare somehow stimulates the economy. Guess if you're Nike or in the huge TV business, maybe...

They were EARNED?

I can point out 10 people in my neck of the woods just off the top of my head who are lazy and are on disability for things that are absolutely ridiculous.  Social Anxiety being one.

And most of those 10 didn't work enough to cover the back payment they received much less the monthly amount they receive.  It's becoming an epidemic and the Census numbers lately prove it.

How the **** did they EARN if they hardly ever even worked???

And please give me one example of the social net being slashed???  Is extending unemployment to 99 weeks slashing?  Maybe I am just slow, but I am pretty sure that is the opposite of slashing.

Yes. By all means, let's gather the fascist government and moribund socialists all together in one place at the same time.

Sounds just like a Union. No money = No cuts.


Makes complete sense.

Only if you're talking about Social Security retiree pensions, or military and civil service retirement payments...and to some extent, unemployment compensation, all of which are either contributory or deferred compensation.  On everything else, you're completely full of shit.

Even at that on average SS and Medicare pay back more than is paid in.

Still total crap compared to what I'm doing in spite of the Obamanomics.  Wish they'd stop worrying about my retirement and trying to take care of it for me, I can do just fine on my own, thank you very much.

True, but that is something that has actually changed back and forth over time, and may change again.

We have record numbers of people receiving "benefits" from the tax payer. So how in the hell have we slashed anything?

Didn't noted economic genius Nanzi Pelosi once say that each $1 of extended UE payments generated $2.35 in the economy? So under Nanzi's economic theory the feds give $1 which they could tax at $1.35 and you would get a free $1. It's magical. If only it weren't for evil rethugs we would be in the socialist Utopia.

The only reason that there are people like Nanzi in power is because her base is clinically moronic.

They all have cell phones, internet, computers, automobiles, cable TV, and air conditioning.

And on top of that, most of them are grossly overweight.

All paid for by the toil of decent, civilized people.

Poor victimized democrats.

Live by the hand out...die by the hand out.

Remember Kirk? The Las Vegas Leviathan is a professional disability leech. He didn't get his paperwork in on time, and went hungry for 30 days. A charity would have understood and helped him out, but Kirk faced uncaring bureaucrats who wouldn't lift a finger to put food in his mouth.

I know better than to depend on democrats to care for me. The DUmp monkeys were far better off with capitalists in charge, the money was there to mooch off of. Socialists will cast them adrift at the first sign of financial hardship.

I hope the DUmmies are afraid for their future. Do they think Hillary will help them? That hateful witch will be the first to sign the termination orders for the unproductive.
--Look at Europe. All the riots didn't bring a single entitlement euro back to the people. They can't blame conservatives...there aren't any left.

The rats have nothing to fear with these cuts. by the time November 2014 rolls around it will all be Bush's fault.

That's a great point, it takes the wealth built by the evil capitalists to keep the entitlements coming, yet they want to bite the hand that feeds them.
