Badgewhore2, like the Obama administration you make excuses for, you seem to have a chronic disassociation with the truth. I suppose you also believed Obama when he told the country that Obamacare would be "cost neutral", didn't you?

So instead you'd rather subsidize the lives of millionaires and Billion Dollar Profit Corporations?

The fact that you guys are OK with giving your “Hard Earned” money away to folks who doesn't need it (and are 100's of times wealthier than yourselves) proves that you guys are brain-washed shills.

“Winners”? Justify it any way you want. The fact still remains that you are OK with giving away your hard earned money to folks that are richer than yourself. And for what? Jobs? Unemployment is almost at 9% so it isn't working. Never worked and it never will. All you are doing is contributing to the centralization of wealth.

Aand aaronm_mt, Stop watching FOX News.

Move to Somalia.

They have no formal government to intrude on your vast wealth making abilities.

We pay back into a society in order to maintain its health and viability.

In some instances, citizens take advantage of the system.

If you want to eliminate waste in government, there are other more robust budgets to draw from than welfare (not to say waste shouldn't be eliminated from welfare).

How about all the welfare we spent on you while in the NAVY, which is largely a state run jobs program for knuckleheads that can't make it in real academic programs (though there are some smart, serious individuals, too)? How else could we spend as much as the next 13 nations combined without it being so wasteful?

Don't get me wrong, the military, like less-veiled welfare programs provide valuable services to our nation. But it also has the propensity to yield high dollar boondoggles (military industial complex-feeding wars), as does traditional welfare (welfare recipients' offspring).

We have waste to cut allover. We also have some tax revenues that must return.

I have a few recommendations:

1. eliminate private funding of campaigns (no unions, no corporations). allow a set dollar amount for each candidate to procure advertising through PUBLIC funds, say $15M for general presidential election. The savings from reduced pork projects alone could pay for that.

2. reduce corporate tax rate to 10%. this, combined with my next point will encourage companies to invest in their company, as it will be taxed so low. Corporations ARE NOT humans, and should be an appliance in the economy, not a way for private citizens to throw their weight around.

3. INCREASE personal income taxes by 20% (not twenty percentage points).

4. Implement a national gas tax that increases $.02/month for 3 years. A HUGE portion of the cost of gas is due to SPECULATION. Some degree of speculation will be crowded out by this tax, which could go back into infrastructure spending. Why allow speculators to have your money, when your society can benefit from it? If there is a fuel crisis, the tax can be reduced to quickly alleviate gas prices. Who is more vulnerable to fluctuations in gas prices, Europeans or US citizens.

5. Global minimum wage. Don't allow ANY imports to the US unless that nation pays its workers at least the equivalent of US minimum wage. Watch manufacturing flourish.

You ever heard of the term "Less Fortunate"? Or all poor folks "moochers"? That's OK, Keep giving your money away to billion dollar profit corporations. I'm sure that they are grateful.

I’d rather my money go towards the less fortunate (which makes society better for everyone). But you would rather for America to become more like Brazil where kidnappings and Car Jacking are a part of everyday life. Enjoy!!!

LexSucks, it's clear from your comments that you have a fundamental misunderstanding of reality and how things work. You speak of the "less fortunate" as if one's fate is predetermined and their success or lack of it entirely due to luck. That is not the case in the U.S. More often, those living off the resources of others are in that predicament not due to a lack of fortune but rather a lack of responsibility and/or initiative. To punish success with yet more taxation and incentivize failure with more handouts is not only fundamentally unfair, but counterproductive and destructive to a society.

- Might as well be predetermined. We (The USA) only recently stopped the government sponsored racism known as Jim Crow laws. You ever heard of planned obsolescence? You are blind dude. That’s OK. Keep living in the bubble.

LexSucks, It's 2012 not not 1950. The only institutionalized racist policy that exists TODAY is affirmative action. Again, the most common trait among those who live off the resources of others is a lack of judgement and responsibility, not bad luck. By your logic, Greece is in dire straights simply because they're "less fortunate" and not because they've been chronically irresponsible with their spending and unsustainable lifestyle. I encourage you to read some Thomas Sowell and Milton Friedman. Who knows? With a little education and perspective you might redeem yourself and lose your reputation as the autospies village idiot.

You are living in a bubble in which you believe that all poor folks are moochers. I don’t think that I can say anything that would change your view.

Of course there are people that mooch off of the system, and they’re also folks who are truly “Less Fortunate”. But for some reason you think that “Less Fortunate” means lazy. You couldn’t be any more incorrect. Enjoy your Bubble. I sympathize for the “Less Fortunate”, you don’t. I’m glad I wasn’t raised to think like you and the other brain washed shills here.

LexSucks, these are the most common factors shared among Americans who rely on taxpayers to support them: 1) Dropped out of school 2) Had children while unmarried and/or 3) engaged in criminal activity. Neither of these circumstances occurred due to a lack of "fortune". These are all irresponsible activities that contribute heavily to poverty in this country. You'll find that most successful people don't make these decisions. Chalking up one's financial status to mere fortune and luck is lazy, inaccurate and dishonest.

Not surprised with your insults. What else should we expect? And your "parents" comment is 100% completely unfounded. Why would you even go there? Is that would you would consider civil discourse? You are incapable of civil discourse.

And the president never sent you a friend request and the first lady isn't following you on Twitter. Stop Lying.

“Take a look around you, notice how you constantly get deboosted”

- You get deboosted too. Hypocrite.


“or mentioned as the forum monkey? And who is "we"?? You have absolutely no backers here, so your foolish attempt at gangpiling doesn't work, yet again.”

- You made baseless insults. Is this how you defend them? I’m not the one who called the first lady insulting names. You did. Just like the true adolencent that you are. Did that make you feel better about yourself? Why did you feel the need to insult the first lady? Just curious. Never mind, you won’t answer that because you are transparent as water. Backers? I don't expect a bunch of brain-washed people (Like you) to see reality?


“Why don't you finish your milk so you can get back to coloring, ok?”

- Says the man who calls people names, attacks, and insults anyone who disagrees with him. Why don’t you learn how to be capable of civil discourse? Which you clearly are not. Funny how you aren’t addressing that. And your lies about Obama sending you friend requests and Michelle following you on Twitter. Did you honestly think that people would believe that mess?

When pondosinatra is pressed with something that he doesn't have an answer for, he deflects it (doesn't address it) and starts attacking the person who asked the question (or made the statement) with something that is completely unrelated.

pondosinatra, this within itself proves that you are incapable of civil discourse. Enjoy.
