Obama '08?

@mysteryman,

No one is free from taxes because no one is free from the obligation of contributing to society. To be free from taxes is to be free of responsibility.

@H2O MAN,

Then casinos are a tax on the stupid as well. So, are you in the top 1% of wage earners? You certainly try to create that impression. If not, why is your sympathy with them? Do you hope to join them by expressions of sympathetic magic?

Where did you hear that, what is the source of the statement that Obama and democrats want women and the elderly to die?

From the voices in his head.

@JTT,

The only scam going on are the conservatives move to give bigger tax cuts to the rich, and increasing our national debt that will bite all of us in the behind...

Conservatives are idiots who doesn't understand economics - believing their old saw that tax cuts create jobs. They haven't been paying attention to job creation since GW Bush's 2001 and 2002 tax cuts that produced the least amount of jobs in this country.

There is no cure for stupid, and as the saying goes, history repeats itself.

They now want to bankrupt the country into submission, and they're winning. S&P just downgraded US debt, and that will have repercussions that will reverberate around the world.

Bullshit!
The lottery is a tax on the stupid.
Research how life is for the poor lottery winners a year or two after they win their way out.

Amen. The government lotteries are government run scams to prey on the stupid and the poor. Their hope is a figment of their imagination, same as the hope that Obama preached to win the Whitehouse. It was a giant scam and still is. It is based upon getting something for nothing. All the great scammers use the scheme to feather their own nests.

I agree 100% !!!

I made a prediction before I read your post, h2oman.

That's four posts in a row with no substance.

@JTT,

And you JTT, you have over 13 thousand posts in a row with no substance.

I predict your string of nonsensical posts will continue... you could be a speech writer for O-boy himself.

@ican711nm,

ican, It only proves you have no idea why revenue trends changed during those periods. It's called myopia and ignorance.

CLUE: When the economy grows on false wealth as they did during the eight year period that ended in 2008, through Greenspan's easy money, mortgage derivatives, and consumer spending from debt, that did grow the government revenues. But that was a trend that could not be sustained; something you'll never understand.

We now call that the Great Recession, because it's the worst economic disaster since the Great Depression. You can thank GW Bush and Greenspan for not knowing how to handle tax rates, the increasing national debt, money policy, the loss of jobs, and wall street gambling from their de-regulation.

all systemic problems which have hollowed out the economy, but the Great Recession was caused by a breakdown in the system, not the economy. No one could trust that the other guy was solvent and would pay his obligations, because of a break down in the regulatory schemes and rampant fraud in the system, what is developing as a habitual failure to force those who owe to pay (playing fast as loose with bankruptcy for instance) , plus a systemic problem of lack of transparency.
