      @ensomniac45 What country are you from? This video was about extending the Bush Tax cuts to the rich. And “rich” in America today are those making more than 250k a year. The rich don’t deserve any further tax cuts, because trickle down economics does not work. We have been giving it a chance since the first Bush tax cuts were in place and the country fell into a recession, does anyone else see a connection?

      The bush tax cuts are for EVERYONE not just the rich. Please read things before you make dumb videos. FAIL!

      What is rich to Obama? If you make 20k or more a year your rich… now how do you feel about the tax cuts? But what about those who make less than 20k a year? THEY DON’T HAVE TO PAY TAXES SO YUUDUP already about the “evil” tax cuts. Go read some books. They are full of words. Sort of like Youtardtube but with more facts and less opinionated babble.

      And,
      what do two pices of shit, and Obama have in common?
      And, of course,
      by now everyone should know that the Bush tax cuts were fully extended for another two years.
      Thank you “President” Obama.

      It is and always has been overspending, overspending and over f’n spending.
      If you are out of money, stop spending. Thats pretty damned simple really. But no, jackasses like you want to worry about this party or that and raise taxes. That is damned stupid. Every time we turn around there is ANOTHER bill spending a trillion here, 800 billion there, another trillion etc. WTF do you think is gonna happen? There is a point where it is just f’n stupid, and we passed that a few years ago.

      Oh ffs, who gives a rats rear what people cared about for the last decade? I’m concerned with NOW & the future. Not with blaming one party or person. Spending has gone up steadily for a long time, but recently it has f’n skyrocketed. We’ve spent more in the last 2 yrs than in the decade prior. So don’t give me that crap. As for the borrowing, we do that anyway and within reason it is not a problem. But the coming spending cannot be sustained – no matter who spends it.

    7. Comment by Toroa28 on 30 December 2010:

      @Ozmator Of course theres a revenue problem why do you think they keep borrowing from China?, and dont tell me its because of overspending because republicans haven’t cared about overspending for the past decade

      @Ozmator You know why the DoE isn’t accomplishing anything? Because people refuse to be apart of the education process, and if the DoE is getting so much money, why are teachers some of the least paid profesionals? are the officials pocketing it?
      like I said, Stop wasting money on wars which are mostly overseas affairs. why not bolster home defences then? There shouldn’t be a rediculous amount of embassies aound the world being global police. Education is One part of having peace.

      @ZomBiezley
      There is no doubt that government spending is wasteful. On one hand I want the most powerful and well equipped Armed forces on the planet. On the other I do not want defense welfare, e.g. Europe, Japan, S.Korea.
      But we don’t agree on education. Recall, I stated the money was wasted. and I meant it. The DoE constantly spends & regulates more and has lower results. There should be 0 federal dollars spent on edu. All of the funding and control should be at the state level, period.

    10. Comment by ZomBiezley on 30 December 2010:

      @Ozmator I didn’t notice WHICH one I typed, my bad. but Buying jets that cost 750 billion dollars is bretty much a waste of money. an F-16 costs roughly 45 million US. $ with 2,000 airframes being delivered. not only is it all areas. its the money spend on overseas commodities like yours and my computers. and Yes I agree that every cent spend on ammunition, explosives, training SHOULD be used for education. after all, a nation of scholars could change more than a nation of tired soldiers.

    11. Comment by Ozmator on 30 December 2010:

      @ZomBiezley
      ROFLMAO, spending in ALL areas is the problem. If you want to complain about war spending, you cannot selectively ignore reality. Such as the fact that entitlement spending far exceeds that of the 2 current wars. By about 100x, our unfunded liabilities are in the 100 trillion range.
      Also, I must inquire – What f’n WMDs are we using?
      And lastly, it’s WHICH, not witch. Perhaps that is evidence that the Department of Education is also wasted government spending.

    12. Comment by ZomBiezley on 30 December 2010:

      @Ozmator yes, spending too much money on our own WMD’s to fight a 10 year war witch is continuing to make us broke.

      House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., called the estate tax the “most egregious provision” in the bill and held a vote that would have imposed the higher estate tax. It failed, 194-233. I guess I better find a job now.

    14. Comment by Ozmator on 30 December 2010:

      @Toroa28
      I don’t care what the higher bracket is or is proposed to be raised to. No one should pay a different rate than anyone else. Higher earning people already pay higher amounts, much higher in fact. If everyone paid the same % that would still be the case. Instead of punitive taxation on successful people.
      AND government needs to stop f’n spending. There is no revenue problem in DC it is a spending problem. No amount of additional taxation is going to fix that.

    15. Comment by Ozmator on 30 December 2010:

      @Toroa28
      I comprehend it just fine. The Bush tax cuts provided everyone with cuts, not just the top bracket. Only a few % are anywhere near that. The rates that would be allowed to go up would affect all over $200k/yr (individuals) and $250k/yr (couples). Thats part of the fallacy involved here. The politicians all say millionaires and billionaires when the law says $200k.
      AND keeping taxes the same does not add to the deficit, not one f’n dime, period. Spending does add to the deficit.

    16. Comment by Toroa28 on 30 December 2010:

      @Ozmator The top tax bracket is $372,951 per year not 200k and if you could comprehend that you do not have to keep the highest tax bracket at that much but raise it even higher to maybe say 1 million per year which is what some democrats are proposing then you could give small businesses like yourself a break and still stop increasing the deficit

      @Toroa28
      Additionally, the top 50% of the population already 97.3% of the income tax collected. The bottom 50% only pay 2.7%
      If you go to the top 10% [ >$113k/yr] (not even the mythical 2%) they still pay 69.94% of ALL income taxes collected. So you think they should pay MORE?
      Don’t take my word for that, look it up at national taxpayers union or the IRS.
      As much as people like to claim only rich are greedy, there sure are a lot of people who want something for nothing.

    18. Comment by Ozmator on 30 December 2010:

      @Toroa28
      I’ll not trust you. Currently the top tax rate is 35%, it would be raised to 38 or 39% – not on the top 2% as you & so many others like to incorrectly state. But on anyone making over $200k/yr. I was one of those people and when the lower rates kicked in in 2003 I was able to hire an additional 5 people for my business. That allowed me to expand and hire more the next yr, And so on. That is where the damage will be done.
      If you can’t see that you are either stupid or, nah just stupid.

    19. Comment by Toroa28 on 30 December 2010:

      @Ozmator Trust me raising taxes to what they were before bush fucked them up will not impoverish the top 2% not even slightly

    20. Comment by Ozmator on 30 December 2010:

      @RightWingBashers
      The only thing strange is the illogical rich bashing from people like you.
      You will never enrich the poor by impoverishing the rich.

      What exactly gives anyone a legitimate claim on what someone else earns anyway? The real greed is on the part of those who want something for nothing and use pity and extortion to get it from people who do something to earn it.
      As to your fallacious logic, the economy was fine until 2008 when uncertainty set in and bubbles burst.

    21. Comment by Ozmator on 30 December 2010:

      What a dishonest and misleading piece of class warfare propaganda this is.

      The “super rich” “mega rich” “millionaires and billionaires” “richest 2%” – depending on who is whining about it — the reality is that the tax rates in question apply to ANYONE making over $200,000 a year. That does not seem like “mega super anything to me. Especially since many of them, like I did, report their small business taxes on personal income tax returns.

      Funny How Some Think Giving The Rich Tax Breaks Will Jump Start The Economy .. Umm Well They Have Had Them For How Many Years And Where Is The Economy? The Rich Don’t Give A Damn About The Poor.. Give Them A Tax Break And They Still Send The Jobs To 3rd World Countries.. Because In The End The US Is A Greedy Society.. The Rich Are Always Looking To Cut Corners Pay 5 Dollars A Day Instead Of 12 An Hour.. They Get Rich And The Poor On The Right Defend Their Right To Pay Less.. Strange
