No, what you want is to cut people off from social programs because you're resentful of the civil rights movement.
Or maybe he just wants to cut people from social programs to decrease entitlement and decrease money going into these programs so they can be used to do other things. Maybe one of those things could be .....oh, I don't know......maybe lowering the national debt.

LOL.
This is how leftists think.

Talk about having a sense of entitlement! You frickers are so used to getting shite you didn't earn that you think it's "warfare" if you don't get it!!

It's just hilarious when these libs finally get the state run capitalism they so desire, they won't be any better off economically, but they'll have their way, and feel better psychologically.

Are people here dumb enough to think obama is the first politician to say we need to tax the rich more? Really?
Of course not - but he may well be the first politician to think of nothing BUT "taxing the rich more."
Can you point to any other aspect of his financial agenda?
Well he has proposed ridiculous spending increases - to be 'paid for' by taxing the rich more. < do you believe this is even mathematically possible??
I mean as an abstract argument, do you think taxing the rich more will do ANYTHING to FIX the fiscal crisis? If it is not a TOTAL solution, then can you point to ANY aspect of Obama's policy that even RECOGNIZES the 'remaining' parts of the fiscal crisis??
And suppose you can do that (I am willing to bet that you cannot even address the topic) - but suppose you surprise me and actually defend his 'tax the rich scheme' as the only salve we need, then can you also extend this defense to the ADDITIONAL trillions of spending he wants???
PLEASE tell us.

True dat - which is why I say = let the DEMs have their way and get to the scene of the fiscal crash as soon as possible.
There is no way conservatives can defeat the 'breed more voters' plank of the DEM party.

He doesn't just want to raise taxes on the wealthy. He wants to raise taxes on EVERYONE. The only way to do that is to go over the cliff.
Absolutely - and the way to do this is to continually reduce the definition of 'the rich' to be 'whoever has more than you do.'
Which is why I now want this crash to happen SOON, so there may well be individuals still alive who caused it to happen, and we can use THEM as examples of the type of malevolent politician to avoid in the future.
I say - let the DEMs own it - let their drunken revelry run the (antique) luxury limosine they inherited into the tree of liberty as soon as possible, so the old-timers with a memory can begin to reassemble the pieces in a rational way.

The point being, raising taxes on the rich comes commensurate with higher economic risk. If the revenue raised is insubstantial as with current proposals, tax policy is ill conceived at best, duplicitously motivated at worst.
You are engaged in an activity known as "casting pearls before swine."
You have actually employed a logical construct here - and that is beyond the mental capacity of who you are responding to.
In the unlikely event that he even understands it, he doesn't care. Logic to him is like dandruff on a black suit. annoying, to be cleaned off as soon as possible.

That the people who are desirous of other people's shite outnumber the people who have that shite isn't news.
I don't care if the thieves outnumber their targets. That's not a measure of their morality. I believe you are correct that the left will rule the white house for some time to come. And, eventually, when they finally bankrupt the nation, they still wont accept that they did it to themselves.
Regardless, being a thief is being a thief, whether your outnumber your targets or not.

As long as GOP voters keep thinking like this and campaigning like this, you will find yourselves losing power.
You have a fear of democrats that is unfounded. The issue to you is not even an issue. The GOP needs to grow up and join the 21 century. But that's your problem.

Again, this is irrelevant. I don't view ideology as a game where I hope my "team" wins. If not being pro-thievery is a vote loser, I'm not going to switch to being pro-thievery. That's just silly.

What does this even mean? Is 21st century thinking the thinking that says you deserve shite you didn't earn from people that did earn it? Is this the revision that needs to happen?
I'm sorry, I don't have a "team". I see you think of this all as a game but that's your failing, not mine.

The ramifications of the GOP not having control of the White House run deep and wide.
It's plenty relevant

Every single "poor" person in America is a net gainer in our tax code. They receive more back on april 15th than they put in. Many of them are net gainers even when you include SS taxes in the equation.
But that aint good enough. People like Rocket think they should gain even MORE.

GOPers have an unfounded fear of democrats. Why? THey're afraid democrats are going to take from them and give it to black people.
That fear and resentment fuels the backlash which results on a war on the poor.
Obama waves to you from the Oval Office
