SO THE REPUBLICANS WANT TO KEEP BUSH TAX CUTS

[mstinamotorcity]

for the wealthiest of Americans.

Their argument,that the top 2% are the Job Creators of the economy.As to be what I consider the average American I thought that I would give that statement some considerable thought.The more I thought about it the angrier I became. I have always known the numbers and know the Bush Tax Cuts for the wealthiest of Americans help add over 700 billion dollars to the deficit.But the actual insult of really trying to make someone believe that Job Creator line is f--king ridiculous.Unless Americans just got here from Mars or some other isolated planet in the galaxy.

Job Creators,if it were not so arrogant of a statement I probably would be holding my stomach in laughter. Because I must have missed the boat or taken the wrong bus while skiing on a diving board if they think anybody believe that bulls--t.

Show me their Job Creation. I will show you 15 million Americans out of work.

Show me their Job Creation. I will show another 10 million Americans who are Part-time or had
their hours reduced.

Show me their Job Creation. I will show you record profits and bonuses.

Show me their Job Creation. I will show you a little building in the Cayman Islands.

Show me their Job Creation. I will show you 24% of America's wealth in the Middle class vanished.

Show me their Job Creation. I will show you millions of Jobs outsourced to other countries for
profit.

Show me their Job Creation. I will show you unfair Trade Agreements that have not been in
America's best interest.

Show me their Job Creation. I will show you tent cities right here in America.

Show me their Job Creation. I will show you thousands looking for affordable housing.

Show me their Job Creation. I will show you foreclosures in the millions.

Show me their Job Creation. I will show you 1.8 trillion that has not been invested back into the
economy.

Now if they (2%) are these so-called Job Creators,Where are the f--king jobs created.The only thing I see is jobs lost. So they think that they want some kind of tax break on the backs of more Americans.Get Serious!!!The top 2% of Americans the so-called Job Creators have failed in my opinion to create a damn thing.And now all of a sudden they are America's only salvation.


:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: The top 2% have enjoyed their massive salaries and bonuses since 2001.All they haven't stole or made since Ronald Reagan and Georges I and II,I don't think they need.And who am I to tell them this?

An American who has noticed you haven't created a damn thing in the form of jobs.The only tax break you really deserve is the one we haven't charged you to kiss our ass!!!!!!:applause: :applause: :applause:

1. They will only create a job if it costs $10 and puts $20 in their pockets.

2. Anybody who

can't see through this fairy tale should take residence in Oz.

3. Not 'keep' them - but 'extend' them

The Republicons want to pretend they did not themselves set the deadline to end the special tax breaks for fatcats, and instead they want to extend those special tax favors so that the wealthy (Republicons) will not have to pay their fair share.

Their lying rhetorical strategery around this is to claim that it is a 'tax increase.' but that is total bullshit. It is an end to the special republicon escape from paying their fair share

In a way it is analagous to the republicon escape from service -- as soooo many of their leaders (Boeher, Gingrich, Lott, Limbaugh, Beck, Hannity, O'Reilly, etc. etc) -- are chickenhawks. They 'escaped' service to America, and now they want to continue 'escaping' the responsibility of paying their fair share.

[mstinamotorcity]

6. And you my child

are right. It is an extension. And I really don't care. They have had long enough to get whatever they were going to get. Their tax holiday needs to be over. They won't be taxed for the first $250,000 that they make. The average household on makes $58,000. There is no way in hell will I agree on extending anything,especially every non-beneficial bill passed under Dubya/Shooter administration.

[SpiralHawk]

9. 'tax holiday' for fatcats. That says it, mstin

You nailed it - gotta remember that accurate meme...

Republicon fatcats are but Tax Dodgers - they want to dump the reponsibility onto the average citizen.

[mstinamotorcity]

20. I would like

to take a dump on them the way they have took a dump on working Americans. We have gotten a shitty deal when it comes to Big Corp and its CEOs. And I don't think no one has any hate for people who are well to do,but those who are well to do seem to have hate for us. Especially when it comes down to the loot.

4. Unemployment went up after the bush tax cuts for the rich

end of story

and the level of job losses turned around after the stimulus kicked in




but Boner and McChinless McConnel are not burdened by having to speak
the truth.

[mstinamotorcity]

8. Thank you

Americans need to see this for themselves.Good graph.Dr. Orangeglow and Moochie McConnell are truly sickening with useless rhetoric.

[HughBeaumont]

5. Send 'em here:

Let the onus be on THEM to justify tax cuts to people who obviously don't need them.

Let it be on THEM to PROVE this supposed job creation during the Great Tax Slash.

[Chan790]

7. Fuck them all.

I think we should be very clear that we will sunset all the tax cuts before we'd restore the ones for the top 2%.

Make Republicans stand on a position of supporting a tax hike on the middle-class in this economy going into the November elections. It'll be a bloodbath.

[mstinamotorcity]

11. But they actually have

some people believing that the top 2% are the only Job Creators in the world. And I don't know why the Dems are not telling the people to look around for their Job Creation for the last ten years.

[Chan790]

15. It's because we haven't spoken wisely.

No Democrat ever talks about tax-equality or the simple truth that if someone's taxes are going down, someone else's taxes need to go up to pay for it or we need to borrow the money which increases the national debt.

People are logical when the facts are clear, they will gladly fuck their neighbor to benefit themselves. Forget talking about job-creation, it's not clear enough for some people.

12. The "Benefits" Of Being The Minority...

It's a no-lose situation that the GOOP has exploited. They assume that the majority of the American people are stupid and won't remember who put this country into this financial mess. The latest meme is that the economy went south the moment the Democrats took over the House (false) in '07. Actually the bubble began to burst in the Fall of '06 with the passage of the regressive bankruptcy bill that opened the gates to the defaults and foreclosures that took down AIG and Lehman. But it's all the Democrats and Obama's fault...the GOOP has zero to do with it and you're too stupid to think different.

I find it also very disengenuous to hear a bunch of highly paid betlway stenographers crying the GOOP talking points that letting the tax cuts for the rich to expire is some kind of a tax hike or that maintaining them is some kind of "tax cut". That's cause most of those oxygen thieves earn nice coin...and they are as greedy and selfish as the rushpublicans.

[mstinamotorcity]

13. And you are

right. They have been slanting this as a tax hike. And you never hear the word Sunset or expire.

[OnionPatch]

14. It's hard to believe that anyone still gives credence to the trickle-down theory.

It just goes to show how well propaganda works when the media is complicit. It's really not all that hard to understand that if people have no spending money and there is no demand for products and services, there won't be many jobs. It's DEMAND that creates jobs, not rich people. They're killing the goose that lays the golden egg. (A middle class with spending power.)

[AldebTX]

16. What I Heard on The News Segment This Morning

Republicans want the tax cuts for the top 2% BECAUSE they have suffered the MOST in this economy. Their savings rates have dipped.

They can't create jobs without the tax cuts.

I sort of did a double take..

1) These are not cuts....they have already been in effect and are only being allowed to expire.
2) What would they do now that they haven't done with the tax cuts for the last few years?

This new argument that we are somehow mistreating our job creators is not ringing true.

[mstinamotorcity]

18. Well then you must

have missed Mitch McConnell (r) on The Daily Rundown with Chuck Todd and Savannah Guthrie. He stated that he wanted all the tax cuts to be permanent. He said it would be good for the country. He also never answered the question on whether the Bust tax cuts for the wealthiest of Americans produce revenue or pay for themselves. He just went back to the point that nobody should have their taxes raised during a recession even if they are some of the key reasons behind it. He also stated that he wanted to cut spending by eliminating some of these Government programs.He forgot to say eliminate regulations, but I know that will be the next talking point.

[butterfly77]

17. Show me how I ..

can get a tax cut, if I don't have a job..Why are the republiCONS more worried about the rich than the middle class and poor.

The republiCONS are more worried about the rich getting tax cuts than helping people get jobs. They have their damn tax cuts in every damn bill that has been drawn up GO TO HELL REPUBLICONS!

[mstinamotorcity]

19. Why Butterfly 77

you seem a little agitated. Maybe you should have a drink:beer: to calm your nerves.I think the repugs will be in for a rude awakening in November.
