Those of you who do.

I don't understand this.

Please post a quick note, whatever you care to express. I don't mind if you're sarcastic or derisive, its just that I'd just like to hear some thoughts and this seems like a good place to ask, people on this list are articulate and seem to have a lot of personal experience.

I actually kind of don't expect much of a response, its a touchy subject to come right out and ask about, but I hope so.

Its healthy to be skeptical and all, but I see so much hate of "gov" here in the US, so much unfocused rage. What exactly is the issue/s?

I appreciate anything anyone cares to offer.

Why do you insist that giving away his business is the only way wealth could be redistributed. Typical right wingnut tactics.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_dilemma fallacy.
“Nessuna soluzione . . . nessun problema!„

So what's the fallacy? That there is more than one way to redistribute wealth (ie higher taxes vs confiscation vs philanthropy) or that the right wingnuts usually insist on phrasing everything in ridiculous terms without ever providing any type of response to direct questions.

RayAmerica is actually a left wing extremist, planted on this forum to make the right wing (extremities) look even more stupid than they are. This is no small task, and we should all be grateful.

Marcus as a taxpayers employee (since I pay your salary through taxes) you should be a bit more grateful to those who work hard so that you can have a job with a salary. If people like Ray move to another state and stop paying taxes here, you'll be begging for hand outs again. When money dries up, its you on the chopping block not your glorious union leadership sitting cozily on top.

Hey, I must say it is way the heck faster to load only the 40 latest comments than to load 517 comments.

I'm thinking that my new comment pagination scheme is definitely worth the Sunday I spend on it.

GUBMINT did not ASK for the money to stop declining home prices.
(as if they could set home prices)
They stole it, Wagged the Dog, smiled confidently, and said, " RE-ELECT ME " .

I have worked at Auto Repair Shops that take advantage of customers ignorance.
I Spoke to an Engineer working on "Devil's Slide" last week.. I quote, "Talk about ripping off the taxpayer" !
Gubmint waste is beyond comprehension.
