HappyGilmore saysOne doesn't have to be poor to realize that the current level of inequality is bad for the economy. All one has to do is have read the smallest amount of history regarding the 1930s.Until inequality gets so bad such that someone can't make good decisions, work hard and make a good living, your inequality argument means nothing. There is nothing stopping any able-bodied individual from making it in this country.
I never made this about Republicans and Democrats, but you obviously have a boner for making this political vs about the issues
Somehow you on the Left feel it's justified to rob those who have worked their ass off, made good decisions, and been prudent about saving, to redistribute to everyone else. But then again, the ends justify the means, right? Now you can feel high and mighty talking with your Leftist friends about how moral and charitable you are voting for Socialists, sniffing each other's farts, and comparing the size of your manginas. I can somehow see women being Socialist in nature because they're delicate and nurturing beings. Men? It's a disgrace to our gender. Grow some balls.
I'm an Independent. So you're saying we should cut spending? I'm all for that and hate when ANY party spends as much as they do. Cut government to the bone.

My comments may hurt and be personal, but I'm just being blunt and honest and they're relevant to the arguments you're making. It's a bitter pill, but it is what it is. If I started calling your wife ugly, that would be crossing the line.
It's not making sense. Trust me on that.
That's nice and all, but it's 0 new jobs.
If it was true, how do you account for the constantly increasing GDP?
just any guy saysI said "Left", which is an ideology not a political party. You said Republicans and Democrats, which are political parties. There is a distinct difference.I never made this about Republicans and Democrats, but you obviously have a boner for making this political vs about the issues
Funny. Here's the post that I answered:

Sure seems to be a bit political in nature.

Socialism is political party.Wrong again.
Wrong again.

Read the first sentence. Socialism was always an ideology before some idiots decided to create a "socialist" political party.
But you're wrong. Inequality has huge effects on the economy as I have already showed you. Look at velocity of money. Look at interest rates. The data is right in front of your face.So what? Stop being a whiner. Interest rates are low and I'm making more money than ever.
Good, so we're in agreement that you were the first to bring up politics and political leanings.Is this your bitchy way of admitting you're wrong by deflecting? Oh, Merry Christmas.

Everything is looking good. If that is caused by inequality, we should've more of it.
Yep, in other words "got mine, eff you".In other words, "you got some and I don't, so I vote to get some of yours". The slogan of pussies who can't earn.

Things do look good when you only take a cursory snapshot at the surface. I encourage you to look a bit deeper.

None can believe that there are others who put the good of society above their own personal greed and selfishness.
just any guy saysThere you go with the politics again. I have an assignment for you. Look up the word "charity". It actually means you can give to others without being forced to. I know it's a repulsive concept for you on the Left, but it might actually improve your life. But the kicker is, you gotta be a man and earn, and you gotta be willing to share without force. Good luck!In other words, "you got some and I don't, so I vote to get some of yours". The slogan of pussies who can't earn.
It's always amusing when Republican's post on here. None can believe that there are others who put the good of society above their own personal greed and selfishness. Sad.

Dear HappyGilmore,
Did you miss what Margaret Thatcher said about socialism? How happy are the Venezuelans who have the same idea as you do?

Dear Strategist--
When have I ever posted anything favorable about Socialism? In fact, I believe I've posted the exact opposite--state owned and centrally planned industry is less desirable than market driven capitalism. Best is a well regulated market that covers up some of the inherent flaws of a free market. And that is what I advocate.
Unfortunately, because most Republican's think like you do, charity isn't nearly enough.Actually, it's because most Democrats think like you do, charity isn't nearly enough. It's never enough for pussies who can't earn on their own. As far as giving to charity goes, do your research first ya "bleeding heart tightwad", cuz that's the title of this New York Times article:
are you salaried exempt
I got the AT&T bonus as of December 29th. Wish they would have paid it out this year instead though.

“How can you lay people off and then give them $1,000 and say that there’s going to be more jobs available? I wish someone could tell me how that’s possible because I have to explain that to my members, and right now at this time of year, this is a difficult pill to swallow,” Joseph Blanco, president of Local 6360 Communication Workers of America Union in Kansas City, told Fox 4 on Thursday.
Comcast fired 500 despite claiming tax cut would create thousands of jobs.

Congrats. Enjoy it while you can.

Whether you're crossing the line is up to the moderator and lucky for you, he's an extremely biased Trumpkin so he only zaps posts from people who criticize his Messiah.

(sigh)
It isn't the United States of California. Most states or even regions do not have the whole free spending, velocity of money thing going on.
I've said before that without Obama, there would have been no reaction strong enough to bring us Trump in the White House. I want you to think about that.
I have a Poli Sci academic background and then many years of working campaigns. I don't exactly know the movers and shakers but have certainly met many of them along the way. Trump will extend his Senate majority. I have a hundred dollar bill in my wallet that I would put in the hands of a trusted third party to wager on it.
Obama would have won in a landslide against Trump.And thank Christ we limit Presidents to 2 terms.
