[QUOTE="JL 0513, post: 1633101, member: 50088"] Not being like other countries is why we have been the greatest country in the history of mankind. No offense to yours. I don't care what the rest of the " developed world" is doing. Whatever it is, Americans aren't flocking to these utopia's. You talk about these vacations but Americans are workers, at least those of us that do and better ourselves. It's who we are. We even forfeit many of our paid sick days. Many of us work over our vacation weeks. I've worked many of my vacations. FDR was a disaster. So bad that immediately after his death, Congress limited the Presidency to two terms. His policies, much like Obama's, extended the depression for a decade. Taxing the rich and corporations....haven't heard that one before. We already have the highest corporate tax rate in the developed world, since you like comparing us. That has helped push corporations to foreign markets. The rich aren't stupid. They take their money where it makes sense to be. You jack their rates up much more, they're gone. Along with all their tax money and spending money that goes into the economy. Then what? The wealthy already pay the majority of taxes. If it weren't for them, the country would be a hell hole. [/QUOTE]
