Please prove that the majority of the people making $250,000.00 or more per year are small business owners and that the majority of small business owners make $250,000.00 or more.

I never said that the majority of the people making $250,000.00 or more per year are small business owners or that the majority of small business owners make $250,000.00 or more

What I am saying is...




This would result in them to cut back on hiring or expanding and would NOT be good for an economic recovery...

am I missing something with this logic?...........it seems so very obvious to me....and many economist have stated such....that the BUSH TAX cuts should stay, at least until we have some economic recovery.

The Bush tax cuts have stayed.  In fact, Obama increased those tax cuts to include 95% of all working households in the country, you know, the people that actually go out and spend their money to live which increases demand which inceases production which helps the economy.  Supply side economics is a joke if there is no one to buy the inceased supply...it's voodoo economics but sounds perfectly reasonable to the uneducated.
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Despite you unfounded beliefs, I am educated and I do take economics very serious.....

We have got to create an enviroment where those who can invest, will invest.....when productions stops, prices go up, economy slows.....when production increases, prices goes down and economy grows....it is THAT simple.

The current admin believes that printing more money and pumping it into the economy is the way to fix the economy....they the gov is not there to create jobs..............the more they get OUT of the way to impede those who do create jobs, the quicker we will recover.

Taking a dollar bill out of your left pocket and putting into your right pocket does not make you a dollar richer.

How is it, raising taxes, will help the economy?.....It MIGHT put more money in Washington...but, How does the help the entreprenuers?

Oh, bullshit.  Anyone with any education in economics whatsoever knows that no mainstream economist takes supply-side economics seriously.  Your grammar in the above sentence puts to rest any claim to even high school equivalency in English.

Now that I've put to rest your lie about being educated (and isn't that against your so-called Christian principles?), it isn't even necessary to address the rest of your ramblings about how you would fix things.

It's a lot more complicated than your simplistic regurgitated sound-bites, Henry; quit trying to pretend like you're something you're not.

It does not take a rocket scientist like yourself to know what is best for this nation regarding its economy.  Quit trying to act as if you are above everyone.  I don't give a shit if I construct a great sentence on a forum....or if I utilize my dangling participles to make you happy.

I do understand common sense......and it seems you are lacking in that department..........I will take only so much shit from someone, until I throw it back.

Quit buying into the liberal mentality of economics, and those economist who have other agenda's to achieve, than doing what is best for the American people....

It is NOT any more complicated....it is simple as keeping gov reduced as much as possible, keeping taxes as low as possible and maintaining a strong dollar.....

with that said,

Have a great weekend... :)

Reduce governmental oversight? Really? Isn't that the very same methodology that brought us the housing market collapse, the economic collapse, and the gulf oil spill disaster? (Among many others)

I said as much as possible...NOT completly....Never said that.  We need to overhaul HOW gov works...they are not doing what is best or practical for the Country as a whole.  Too much beauacracy is NEVER a good thing.  THAT is without a doubt a major problem we now have.

No. What we have is a legion of elected officials that are so full of themselves and harboring hatred, that they could not care less what happens to Americans like you and I. They have their heads so far up the ass of corporate Amerika, that they taste everything they consume!

  No you don't have to be a rocket scientist, all you have to have is a brain.  You're so fucked up with the Republican Speak, you're brainwashed.

  But all I got to say is if your Republicans want to put this country in default, do it.  Your dumbass Republicans are more interested in letting the rich have everything, you are going to see a real train wreck.  You are going to experience the greatest depression in the world history.  A killing, starving depression, the likes nobody has ever seen and your Republican are asking for one.  They must have like the one Herbert Hoover had.  Go for it, Henery.

  But in the end the Republicans will come around.  Because the corporations and the super rich don't want a default.  It would really hurt their riches.  Believe it or not, they would rather pay taxes that have a depression. 

  What is so bad you really believe all of this Republican poison Kool-Aid :koolaid: you're drinking.  So drink heartily Henery, your might reap want you want so badly.  A cold hard debt free depression.  Damn, I say, this boy is really slow.  He's slower than sap running out of a maple tree on a zero temperature day.  I say, this is slooooooow boy.  Hee, hee, hee.  :biggrin:

And the posturing continues!

In their evil in initiative to make the POTUS a "one term POTUS" congress is now holding the entirety of our nation hostage to their supposed political "ideals"; and the propaganda machine is hard at work, as usual.

When Ronald Reagan said that social security checks would be at risk, when these jackasses started squabbling over the debt ceiling, it was taken at face value and congress got to work. When Clinton said it, the same thing resulted. Now that Obama has said it, suddenly it is a lie and they use it as a smokescreen behind which they can hide!

Meanwhile, MILLIONS of Americans will find themselves without medical coverage, without income, and without means. Why? They do NOT give one damn about anything but their evil initiative to make this POTUS appear to be an abject failure!

IS our future worth allowing these racists to get their way?

  If you are educated if must have come from Glen Beck's chalk board education courses.  With Glen gone what are you going to do?  :rotfl:  :rotfl:  :rotfl:  Can you get his satellite radio programs for refresher courses.  :rotfl:  :rotfl:  :rotfl:

We will soon see. . . Tomorrow is Monday and my prediction is that by week's end, there will be nothing accomplished but more of the same crap they did this week.
