Tax the super rich...great! Right out of the Communist Manefisto!!
Thats all they know.. they have no idea what it takes to make a robust economy... jobs, growth, empowering the entrepreneurial spirit to go from nothing to making a better life.
All they can say is nanananana ! im not hearing you as our industries start to crumble.
Big Business crushes the entrepreneurial spirit just as much as Big Government does.
The fight is not between "Socialists" and "Capitalists." Quit falling for that particular "us vs. them" trap.
The real fight is between the Crony Capitalists (Mega-Corporations and other special interests that own our Big Government) and the rest of us who are totally skrewed by this unholy alliance.
Wthfkr80, I think you hit the nail on the head when you said Big Government crushes the entrepreneurial spirit.
In a survey I recently heard about, when asked the question: "Is government helping, not helping, or hurting your ability to get ahead" [From memory - not necessarily an exact quote] Only 33% said government was helping...whereas 67% said big government was either not helping, or actually hurting their chances of getting ahead. Big, constantly growing, intrusive government is not the solution - its the problem.
Limited, constitutional government would go a long way in solving our countries current problems.
I have also permanently tuned-out Dishonest Abe's noise.
Is his still yapping even after I put him ignore? He's like a turd that just won't flush...
Hahaha, you very vocal, but weak minded liberals love to hurl your derogatory (often sexual) slurs at those who are mentally and emotionally superior to yourselves. Hahaha.
Your crude remark reveals you to be my inferior. Go ahead, block me all you want. Hahaha.
BTW, what have you read lately? Or are you too chicken to say. I double dog dare you. You won't, coward, will you?
Big hat, no cattle. Big wind, no substance. Big head, no mind.
And just to be clear, you sir, are in the minority. The very vocal minority.
Nomo, why do you constantly play the "Am talk radio" card? Is that all you got?

BTW, no matter how you attempt to disguise it, A HEAVY PROGRESSIVE INCOME TAX is one of the planks of THE COMMUNIST MANEIFSTO...COMRADE.

Flushing turds is a sexual slur? I really don't want to know what goes on behind your bedroom door.
Bob, having trouble reading? I said "weak minded liberals love to hurl derogatory (often sexual) slurs".
Then you end with another dig, hahaha, is that all you got?
When only one entity has a monopoly on the use of violence to enforce rules, funded by taxpayer dollars, it is called government.
Have a good day.
Chances of them falling into the Soviet block without Soviet Red Army occupation very little.
Not just Soviet Block, electing a Socialist or Trotskyite party that would drop out of NATO and kick out US troops and close US bases. This was the danger with Greece and Italy in particular.

I might as well do digs. You have never in all the years I've read Patrick.net actually offered any type of suggestions how things could be better. You have only one trick, government is bad. But no suggestion whatsoever what would be good. Not that you ever answer other than to spew anti government am radio regurgitations, but what is your vision of how society should function?
Bob, my vision is stated in my book: "Is Government the Problem?" but I won't publish it. I don't want to be on the government kill list, but I probably am already.
All of my suggestions get trashed because they are based on freedom, liberty, sound money and the constitution. All the things necessary for a healthy society.
Government is like fire, a necessary evil. If you don't contrtol it, it will destroy you.

Patrick, If I get LESS when the 1%'rs make MORE, do I get MORE when they make LESS?
I'm going to buy stock in those companies who financially rape and pillage America, then I'll have the right to complaign how much the CEO makes. My stock profit wouldbe directly related to expenses (salaries), right?
Otherwise its none of my business (I'm not a lib, and as such I don't have a busy-body, entitlement mentality).
If I get LESS when the 1%'rs make MORE, do I get MORE when they make LESS?
Historically speaking, yes you do.
