Liberal Hypocrisy: Hating the rich

[UPS Lifer]

YAWN.

There are plenty of RICH liberals who believe they should be paying higher taxes. Nobody hates the rich, only the ones who hide their money overseas and hurt america. Only the rich who move their companies to third world countries at the sacrifice of the american worker. Only the rich who believe in excessive profits instead of helping american communities by building products in local cities. Only those RICH who say Phuque the american worker and then pay some chinese juvenile 25 cents a day to assemble shoes.

The RICH are not the friends of america.

We had three presidents who believed protecting the rich would help the poor, and that didnt work out so well. REAGAN, BUSH & BUSH protected the RICH and all three screwed america.

BUSH2 did the most damage by almost causing another depression and almost wiping out the United States of America as we know it.

You call it hate, we call it disposing of the garbage. You can go out with it if you can fit in the can.

Righteous Indignation - a yawn - I am better than you - I know more than you - I am a liberal thinker - you bore me! Yawn! Yawn! - If we bore you so much, why don't you go chat with those who are elitists liberals like you! Thank you for defining the title of this thread....Liberal Hypocracy!

Name and show proof of one RICH Liberal who has paid more than what they owe in taxes. You do realize you can just write a check to pay extra to the government. Also, hundreds of companies like UPS compete internationally and take advantage of favorable tax havens. This is called capitalism. Where ever socialism had embedded it's ugly head, the economy has failed.

The rich, no matter what political party they are affiliated with are insulated from the rest of the population. They have the money to pay the tax, they have the money to fight the government, they can basically do what they want. You can bet if their fortune was threatened by big government, they will have an epiphany about big government.

The irony & hypocrisy of the political process is that it takes MONEY to run for office....AND LOTS OF IT! You either have it or have been successful enough to attract it from a RICH person or group of people.

There are two dominant philosophies that adorn our American landscape.

Big government or capitalism - You make your choice by who you support for president.

"Big government or capitalism"? What are you suggesting? Pre FDR capitalism? The cesspool that gave us the Great Depression?

 

[UnconTROLLed]

I guess none of our liberal posters here can offer anything that debunks or even justifies the pure envy and hypocrisy in their views on the rich.

The interesting part is that most people aren't envious of the rich. Perhaps you are the envious one and are trying to reconcile these feelings through company of others? aka projecting?

You KNOW that was not what I meant. - You are bating me!

Big government is not going to grow our GDP - If it did - the stimulus would have been proof. When you put almost a trillion into the economy through the government and nothing changes... well that is proof enough for me.

We need rules and regulations but not job stifling rules and regs - We need to shrink government in a controlled way to shift jobs from the government to the private sector. Eliminate duplicity and cut out the inefficiency in the government.

Give incentive to business to grow and hire people. This is how you grow the middle class.

When I have money, I give better tips, I go out to eat more, I hire people for home projects and repair, I buy new cars etc etc. If my business is not doing so well, all those things stop. If I even THINK the government is not friendly to me and my business, I tighten up all my finances and go into survival mode.

 

[bbsam]

I am baiting you because you put forth a ridiculous choice. When government builds bridges gives grants, puts up student loans, sends out SS checks, awards giant millitary contracts and even sends out welfare checks, your fellow Americans go out to eat more and leave bigger tips. That' good for the economy.

Can someone define what it takes to be a rich person?
How much $$?

Nancy Pelosi is an example.

Nancy Pelosi is an American politician, with the net worth of $35.5 million.

Nancy Pelosi earned her net worth as a U.S. Representative from California’s 8th District and the
current House Minority Leader.

I don't think so. I think it has as much to do with a person's spiritual condition as anything. And yes, I am serious.

I agree.

I just want the monetary number.
I want to know if I am this piece of rich crap y'all hate.
I want to know if I should just stop giving a damn about people because I am getting tired of all this hate and I want to know my place in this stupid debate.

Do as you want. I don't know who is hating the rich. Those on the right keep claiming it, those on the left say it's a matter of fairness. You are correct though. It's hardly worth the debate.

LOL! You people sure are entertaining. I will believe that people aren't envious of the rich when they stop demanding more from them, which, by the way, I am not. Nice try though.

That's nice, but I don't think anyone is trying to prove anything to you. It's not like we get a merit badge for converting you. We simply believe you are wrong.

I hate rich people who got there by screwing other people. Is that succinct enough for you?

 

[MenInBrown]

I love rich people!

 

[bbsam]

I love rich people!

They love you too...in your place.

 

[Lue C Fur]

I love rich people!

Me too. I like how they provide jobs. I have not seen any poor people giving jobs.

Name and show proof of one RICH Liberal who has paid more than what they owe in taxes...

Mitt Romney!


Before you complain that he's not a liberal, might I point out his entire record before he began his eight year sojourn to become President.

It's cute that he picked Paul Ryan to be his VP pick, but that's entirely political.

Mr. Romney is a Mormon, and a pragmatist.

This spiel he's vomiting has very little to do with how he would actually govern.

But, you know, vote for him because he's 'severely-conservative'.

LOL.

There you go. "Job Creators". What a freaking load of crap.

 

[av8torntn]

There you go. "Job Creators". What a freaking load of crap.

I see you work for a very poor guy.

 

[MrFedEx]

I see you work for a very poor guy.

He's a bastard, and he was born with a silver spoon in his ass. He "creates" crap jobs, like our Ground division where drivers make $12-$14 per hour with zero benefits.
