...over raising taxes on the people who create REAL jobs of all things.

The super rich have been getting a big break for the last 8 years now
and how many jobs have they created so far through the largesse of the
middle & lower class taxpayer? Trickle down economics is a myth.

The rich should be giving more back to those who enrich them, by paying a higher percentage of tax on their earnings.......after all...a loaf of bread costs the same whether you are rich or poor.

Please don't talk about me in that way....The Rich....

Sorry mate. I guess I let loose after reading that email you sent to me about the US Dollar dropping. The way those dollar notes are sucked up by those rich AH's. I feel passionate about such things, and would like to take that dollar bill right back and keep it forever.

Pay attention please.

It was a hundred dollar note.

It was ???? Then we'd better give it to Puck.
He'll distribute it equitably.
2% for the masses.
98% profit.

Hooray for class warfare!!!!!

You say "give back" like taxes are a choice.

So, I should "give back" to my employees because their labor enriches me? Isn't that what their salary, health care plan, bonus, expense checks, etc is???

Tell me, where does it end? Stop the whining about being "poor". Instead, use the freedom you have and go get it. Or not. No big deal, really.

Or, in other words.... Don't hate the player. Hate the game.

But I have used the freedom I have to go get it. And I have paid my employees fairly because they have enriched me. And I have paid my taxes with no complaints because I know that the taxes I pay will go to build my country and provide for those who never had the opportunities that I have had.
Why would I want to make more money than I could spend in 3 lifetimes like some people do ??? There is plenty here for us all. No big deal, really.

Wow. Wom..... I never knew you were so clairvoyant. Neat.

You know what we pay our staff. You know the bonus we give. My whole business is about our people. Our people rock. They are the reason why we shattered our revenue goal this year. Lets just say they really enjoyed the Christmas party. So, you see I am more than willing to "share the wealth" as you seem to be getting at. But on my terms, not some loser politicans. See, capitalism rewards hard work. Welfare (taxes) rewards sloth.


You and i will never see eye to eye. But do not for a second ever assume i do not take care of the people who share my success.

Its the difference between belief in the success of the individual benefitting society (me) more than using class warfare (taxes. A position you seem to support) to take money i earned and give it to those who did not.

Do not take his to seem as i am cold or motivated merely by profit. Your next responce is a sophmoric example. Its the difference between giving a fish and teaching HOW to fish. Freedom does not mean " a chicken in every pot. ".

Greed is a disease.
Maybe you should go see a doctor.

Thanks for reading my post wom. Let go of your baseless hate for me a sec and read what i posted.


Did you miss the part about how well we share our success with our team?

Or are you implying my lack of support for welfare is motivated by greed?

Do a little homework dear.... Find out how many jobs were created after Bush signed the current tax rates into law. What was the unemployment rate in 2006? Hmmmmm......


THEN look at what happened after the Democrats gained control of the purse. (Congress.....)


Tell me what you find.


I will give you one thing though.... Cutting tax rates, but not spending, is insane. Thus what we have now. So I am not really defending Bush here.... FYI. Basically, the people know how to spend our money better than .gov.

[Puckstop31]

Trickle down economics is a myth.

History, in a huge way, disagrees with you. If "bottom up", or Kenesyian economics worked.... What gives? Bush did it.... Obama did it.... Look where we are.

I hope you bring up the mortgage crisis as an example of your point.

It seems trickle up poverty is becoming very real.
