Lets get this straight

Republicans want those who pay the biggest share of taxes to keep much more that they don't need.
And they want those who are in need to do with much less which will somehow force them to not to have a need?

They think that everyone needs to partake in the cost of building what is needed for business to operate, but only those at the top should reap the benefits of it.

That their wealth is the most important thing to them, and what happens to to the rest of the population is not their problem. God would be proud of their stance.

Well 888888 it's why, religious or not, a lot of other people see some human activities as falling into the following columns and choose the column called "virtues".

It's why some people worship one god, some other people worship another god, but want someone to believe they are worshipping the same god as everyone else. Unfortunately, some people fall for the con job or are a part of it.

Money and material wealth are not the evil, how some people covet and worship them above all else is the evil.

JRR Tolkien offered his metaphoric illustration of what greed and relentless pursuit and worship of "precious" things and power do to people.

Yes, how dare the successful think they should be allowed to keep what they earn? When someone "needs" something and can't pay for it, well, someone else has to pay for it right? And who's to say what a "need" is so lets just let the "needy" decide. And who's to say how much of other people's "needs" the rich must fund so, no matter how many children the poverty stricken decide to have, and how big the "needy" class gets because of big government economic policy failures, the rich will just have to keep giving up more and more of their wealth until...well, until there are no more rich. Right? Problem solved!

Well, isn't that rich. You bitch about how many children the poverty stricken have yet you want to defund Planned Parenthood, the very place where they can get birh control so as to prevent them from having these unwanted children you're so terrified of helping to support even though this is what YOU are forcing on them. You Cons hate 'everything' so much you cannot even think straight.

No doubt Cons would rather the poverty stricken would all just die that way you would not have to be bothered. I'm reminded of how Christ healed and ministered to the poor. I guess most Cons slept in late the day they had that lesson at church.

Well.. kinda like those subsidies the oil companies get .. not exactly fair either..IMO
__________
NASHUA, N.H. — With his re-election fate increasingly tied to the price Americans are paying at the gas pump, President Obama asked Congress on Thursday to end $4 billion in subsidies for oil and gas companies and vowed to tackle the country’s long-term energy issues while shunning “phony election-year promises about lower gas prices.”

How dare ask those who have reaped so much from what this nation has provided them with to help with the cost of running it. How dare ask for the wealthy to pay for the cost of education, the cost of roads the cost of local govt, the cost of helping the poor. You really believe that the ordinary guy should provide what business needs to make a go of it. without workers and those who buy products, business would be nothing. It's not the other way around. Business is not the reason this country is so great, it's the people who did the building of it. Making money off of peoples hard work and then turn around and tell those people you were paid in full on Friday what more do you want, this belongs to us and we have given you enough, now get back to work and earn us some more.

It isn't keeping what they made, that isn't the problem guys, it's you don't think that workers should share in what this country has created. You want people to pay the cost of govt, a govt that provides business with the opportunity to flourish. The wages of the top 20% has steadily rose over the last 25 years but workers have not.

You want people with money to make money off their wealth and be taxed on it at less than a person who barely achieves poverty income levels. The rich have gotten richer and it isn’t fast enough for them.

What's really funny is there isn't a one of those on the right that comes to this board that any of the wealthy would open the door to in the real world. You aren't one of them dumb asses.

Asking those who use the system of govt to get so wealthy is wrong Lucky? Tell me who will pay for the running of our system if 90% of the wealth is in the hands of 10% of our nation and they aren't asked to do it? If 80% of our income is in the hands of 10% of those at the top, and we ask them to pay the same as those at the bottom our country could continue to grow?

Asking those in the bottom 80% to pay for half the cost of what we need is totally stupid, but that is what you are saying. you want us to believe that everyone should be part of the solution but only a small group should reap the profits.
