It's been a while because I have been busy with a new addition to our family. She's a good girl most of the time, but has to constantly be watched. She is a white boxer puppy, who is playful, and mischievous, and takes up a lot of time. Introducing, Riley Marting. Now getting back to politics. The big talk lately has been about letting the Bush tax cuts expire for the top two percent of earners in this country. I think the logical thing to do is let them expire. Now I am no expert but when you have people like Alan Greenspan who everyone trusted when Bush was in office, and David Stockmon, President Reagans Office of Management and Budget (Read: The Architect of the Reagan tax cuts) going so far to say that the Bush tax cuts have led to serial financial bubbles and Wall Street depredations that have crippled our economy. I would say I trust these two Republican economists. In fact unless you make over 250 thousand a year the rolling back of the tax cuts will not effect you and in some cases you will be better off. People who make less than 100,000 a year. Here is a graph of tax cuts per year on what you would pay on income.
20,000-30,000 Dem 771 Rep 769
40,000-50,000 Dem 916 Rep 909
50,000-75,000 Dem 1132 Rep 1119
75,000-100,000 Dem 1900 Rep 1871
200,000-500,000 Dem 6743 Rep 7152
500,000-1 Million Dem 6701 Rep 17,467
1 Million+ Dem 6349 Rep 103,835
What this shows is that the Bush tax cuts favor only the very wealthy in this country while the rest of us make up for it. In fact unless you make less than 500,000 it really doesn't effect you. And all of you that say that these tax cuts create jobs, bullshit, we have been losing jobs since the Bush tax cuts were fully implemented and when he left office the unemployment rate was above nine percent and increasing. Leading Republican Economists have said to let the tax cuts roll back. Oh and by the way when all of you were screaming about the health care bill going through by way of reconciliation, this was the only way they could pass the tax cuts. Why weren't you screaming then Rush and Glenn? And because they are unfunded, the law requires them to roll back, which Bush knew when he enacted them. Now you have a putz like Newt Gingrich on Fox News saying "The Chinese pay no capitol gains tax" so now Newt is comparing our system against a communist one, interesting. People call me a communist, and Newt is siding with the Chinese.
well i see you have forgotten that you were going to watch beck for a week and comment what you heard and saw,just stick to reading a hate blog about him.go back and read your last blog and the comments truthfully i'd like to know what you think.now your new pup looks like a winner,but soon you'll be finding out things about her,you provide a warm,dry,roof over her head that she does'nt pay anything for,you'll provide food for her that she does'nt pay for,you'll take her to the vet more times than you go to the doctor yourself all on your dime,and when she makes a mess you will be there to clean it up and that's when you will figure out that bitch just is'nt a dog but acts alot more like a freeloading democrate.
ReplyDeleteNo I haven't forgotten him and I did watch as much as I could. He's just to preachy for me the way Olberman is on the left. O'Reilly much better. Interesting how the two sides see things in their own way. How could you slam something so innocent as my puppy. That's low and cowardly just like a Republican. And for all your talk about freeloaders and people needing to stand up for themselves. I just have one question and that is why do we spend so much on our military around the world to help people who dont stand up for themselves, yet people like you have the everyone for themselves attitude for the people in this country in need. Maybe if we started helping our own people and spending less on the military we would be much better off. Interesting how broke 31 of the fifty states are and its also interesting that most of those states had the highest number of manufacturing jobs shipped overseas courtesy of Clinton/Bush corporatist policies. States are going broke because the twenty dollar and hour tax base got shipped overseas and they have to make do with the nine dollar an hour income tax base courtesy of of whats left, low paying non skilled jobs
