Now he's been called "poor" three times. It is just not his week.

It is similar to this week at my employer. This is Giving Campaign week, where all are encouraged to give to charity, and if you already are, to give more.

In two weeks, we find out what the cost of our benefits for next year are going to cost. Too bad the events aren't flip flopped on the calendar, because once we know how much is going to be taken away, we'd know better how much more we could afford to pay.

Same thing for the rich. Going after them as individuals, before they find out how much their businesses are going to get hit is counterproductive.

Who do you think donates the money to make average Joes into congressmen and senators? And around it goes.

People need to understand that they'll never hook the rich. The rich will receive the bill and they'll make the middle class pay the price, while the lower class continues on the free ride.

Why do all the conservatives on this forum think all liberals are poor?

http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2006/pages/results/states/US/H/00/epolls.0.html

While 2 of 3 people making under 15k a year are democrats, that still leaves a full 1 in 3 of them who are republican.

Income
Less Than $100,000 (78%)
55% democrats
43% republican

$100,000 or More (22%)
47% democrats
52% republican

While not perfectly balance, it is still pretty even.

There are plenty of wealthy democrats, and plenty of poor republicans.

You'd think that they'd try something different then.

If you don't like the soup on Monday...why eat it on Tuesday?

Next think you know they'll start saying liberals love to eat babies. Oh wait, they are already sort of do that. Only liberals have abortions. No conservative has ever done that.

lol.

Actually that is just an exit poll. Just another example of liberals trying to pretend to be rich while coveting.

Picking up where we left off on our last class warfare thread, fair share based on what?

Your opinion?

Someone else's opinion?

The general masses' opinion?

The half-assed input from the zero liability crowd who hate "rich people"? You know who I'm talking about - folks who might pay some taxes during the year, but then get 100% of it all back, plus their "earned income credit", whereby they get some tax money that I paid in back on their return as a bonus for not working hard or succeeding. Yeah, those folks' opinion?

I know, I know ... being a socialist is super hard work. Makes your brain hurt.

The people that really need a frying pan to the head are the people that receive (and the politicians that made it possible) for people that don't pay any taxes, yet get tax refunds.

WTF?

Geeeeeez Wheel – I thought you were well traveled.

I can hook you up with some brothers in Secaucus that can introduce you to the river Styx and the rest of Jersey – That you might be afforded a glimpse of Hell.

Watch out – they’ll cut you for talking funny.
