Tax Cuts and Debt

This video was made as the Bush Tax Cuts were being voted on, check out Anthony Mason’s prediction at the 53 second mark.

without talking about the Tax Cuts conversation about the Debt is meaningless.

All conversations about cutting MediCare and Social Security are just stupid.

Retirement at 62 gets 25% less than full Retirement and full retirement isn’t till 66 now and will be going to 67, people forget that Bush passed that to save Social Security.

Obama has opposed Cola on Social Security the last 3 years.

Bush cut Social Security in 4 budgets, Cut Medicare in 5 budgets, Obama and Bush Cut Pell Grants.

Is the Budget balanced yet?

The Whole conversation is like a family that owns a mazeratti, a Dually, 2 mustang Shelbys and a Crown Vic trying to balance their family budget by cutting back on their kids Lunches…

Poor people getting something for nothing is not the problem this country faces. Envy of the poor is wrong, misguided and stupid.

I pay taxes for infrastructure and social safety nets, for the betterment of our society and country.

When someone is flooded out, I expect my tax dollars to feed them, I expect rescue workers to rescue them, and I expect the Gov’t to provide water, food and temporary housing. I would like my Tax dollars to work to making my fellow citizens productive tax payers again.

    If you want to cut expenditures, and I mean major expenditures, why not stop all the wars, and bring our people home?

    “The Whole conversation is like a family that owns a mazeratti, a Dually, 2 mustang Shelbys and a Crown Vic trying to balance their family budget by cutting back on their kids Lunches…”. . . brilliant metaphor there… or it is an analogy? I always get those mixed up. Simile?

    The cars are the defense budget.
