Annoy a liberal today. Hit them with facts.
TOS, are you saying that Americans aren't taxed enough? That letting americans keep more of what they earn is bad?
Maybe the government should just spend less of our money.

RBrown, the taxes I speak of were not for middle class working americans. Those cuts, just like the cuts for the rich that Reagan gave away PLUNGED our nation into HUGE debt in 2001.

3.2 trillion dollars right off the bat.

That make you happy?

If that is true, then we must accept much less from our government. Less subsidies to farmers, to businesses, less safety standards, less stability of markets. And before you sign on to such a love of free markets, consider the full and complete ramifications of that. Few would really want that. What they mean is that they want government to do what they want it to do and nothing more, nothing less...until they change their mind.

But in this representative republic, we have decided what we want government to be. We just don't want to pay for it and want cuts made only that are hard on the "others".

What would make us ALL happy is if you just answer some questions poised to you. Very SIMPLE questions. You just might, MIGHT add to your credibility.....Uh, maybe NOT.

Answer some questions, TROLL.


Again, your fishing goes unanswered because the mods are protecting you from yourself.

Nice try...AGAIN, Troll.

Where did I say I wanted the MODS to answer? Do the MODS care about the answers?

Prove to me that "...the mods are protecting you from yourself", Miss "Just-The Facts-Maam".

"...protecting you from yourself". What the hell does that mean? I learned not to run with scissors a long time ago.

Answers, troll, ANSWERS.

Funny how the TEA PARTY has members of every race in it. Real funny how that comes off as racist to Leftist/Socialists in our country.

Simple math quiz for you Island.

BUSH 11 trillion when he left office.

OBAMA 16.7 trillion as of today.

DOUBLE would be 22 trillion.

I dont think you thought this out clearly enough.

TOS.
I think he meant that Obama isn't done running up the debt yet. He has almost 3 more years to pass 22 trillion in national debt.
But let us not forget that the President only sets the tone for national spending, that CONGRESS spends the money. And that typically our country usually gives the presidency to one party and congress to the other (or splits congress between the two parties).
GW Bush mostly had a dem congress (that and 9/11 is reason for spending too much).
And Clinton mostly had a Republican Congress, which is why spending went way down. (especially for welfare.)

Tea party voters are the lowest info. voters of all....
Ghetto voters who thought Obama would give them free stuff are the lowest informed voters in the USA.
If that is true, then we must accept much less from our government. Less subsidies to farmers, to businesses, less safety standards, less stability of markets. And before you sign on to such a love of free markets, consider the full and complete ramifications of that. Few would really want that. What they mean is that they want government to do what they want it to do and nothing more, nothing less...until they change their mind.

Yes. We must learn to accept less from our government.
Yes to no farm subsidies. Subsidies are an evil that never ends.
Yes to less regulations on business.
(How this will un-stabilize the markets I don't know)
I do want less from my government. I only want national defense, infrastructure improvements like roads, bridges and dams and national parks. I want police and fire service. I even would like an optional social security system. (I would opt out by the way because I trust me planning for my retirement more than some elected official) I also want a 2 year safety net (welfare) system for those that fall on hard times. But I am tired of paying for people to live a life time on welfare, food stamps and section 8 government housing.

Good luck passing that agenda.

Yes, too radical that the govenment only spend money on what the founding fathers wanted the goventment to spend money on.
I even added a 2 year welfare safety net to spending.
Yes, I admit eliminating foreign aid must be a shocker to liberals, but hey, it had to be done. China has enough of our money with out us sending them more.

When the founders rise from the dead to cast their votes, they will have their say. Until that time, we have a country to run that is nothing like they envisioned and hasn't been for 150 years.

Then I would move to a third world country where they have no programs like that if I were you. Otherwise you will have to deal with it until corporate America changes the way it does business.

Yeah, that's the solution. I am not asking for a nation without laws, just a nation that doesn't give trillions in free money to people.

Trillions? How about corporations bringing back jobs from overseas for those people getting free money? You can't have it both ways.
