TheMadCap Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Great Idea! Why didn't he think of this before now? http://content.usatoday.com/communities/theoval/post/2011/09/obama-wants-to-pay-for-jobs-bill-by-eliminating-tax-breaks/1 That will immediately cause those stingy businesses to spend those piles of cash they've been hoarding up and causing him to look bad...

DC Tom Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 I'm starting to wonder if the "middle class" isn't shrinking because they keep getting redefined as "rich" by people who want to tax them.

I don't know what I'd do without your vast knowledge of sociology, economics, and politics to back me up here. You complete me. I'm being sarcastic, in case you didn't catch it.
KD in CA Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 (edited) Ah yes, we're back to the "millionaires and billionaires" tax......on people making $200k.

Some of them are also getting redefined as "living in poverty" by people who want to raise taxes on others just because raising taxes is always the right thing to do. .

Getting some straight pipes and Dub-2s. Of course the shop is located in Lichtenstein because I don't want to support the American worker.

DaveinElma Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Got to keep those EBT cards loaded somehow.

Nanker Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Wifey's been pestering me for weeks to get a new G6. Better get out and shop for one soon. Of course Buffy will want one too at least as fast as Chip's. Can't deny the little darlings a single thing, now can we? It's amazing what $200k a year will get you these days. Of course, I would rather put $50k on a boat than give it to BO so they can reroof a school in Trenton or put wall-to-wall carpeting in an ACORN office in Peoria. But that's just selfish little me.

I think he said something about a government program where they give you money for trading in your current corporate jet for one that gets a couple more miles per gallon
