    Story Of Obama

    The Great Life Obverse View As a child, I hated to be lectured; beat me, sit me in the corner, or make me shovel cow manure, but don't lecture me. Now that I am an adult, or perhaps on my way back to childhood, I hate to hear politicians lecture because I know they are standing on a pile of...

    Wrt Beer A handful of 7-year-old children were asked, 'What they thought of beer.' Some interesting responses, but the last one is special. 'I think beer must be good. My dad says the more beer he drinks the prettier my mom gets.' --Tim, 7 years old 'Beer makes my dad sleepy and we...

    Black Views On Immigration, Discussion Of Race Etc...

    Let's remember that the black community is itself divided to some extent: poor blacks (inner city, single mothers, poor women with several children and grandchildren to feed via foodstamps, etc) vs middle and upper-middle class blacks, many of whom are extremely decent and hardworking. Sort of...

    Story Of Obama

    Obama’s Second-Term Taxes By Dick Morris on April 10, 2012 If Obama is reelected, the tax increase he and a Democratic Congress would impose on middle- and upper-middle-income Americans would be disastrous. It’s easy to lose sight of his tax plans because he has hidden them in a variety...

    CATO: GOP as Bad as Dems on Spending

    From slate.com? That's a leftist magazine owned by Washington Post, managed by Alderman who wrote, among others, for Newsweek. Surely you jest! :)

    CATO: GOP as Bad as Dems on Spending

    I don't really give a hoot about Keysian economics, I rarely comemnt on it, being a devoted supply sider myself. W created almost 3 million jobs in his first term despite tech bubble, 9/11, and two wars, a very good track record. After losing the congress to the Dems in 2006, his influence...

    CATO: GOP as Bad as Dems on Spending

    Well, I'm not an economist, although I do have an MBA from UVA, a couple decades ago. I don't really think I'm making any big theoretical mistakes. But, as you know, what you see here is my opinion, I'm a conservative businessman. I'm sure it's similar with you. Trading is somewhat boring...

    Are you talking about my trading? And yet, I make a decent living. I'm sure Obama has me in his list of people to redistribute from :)

    CATO: GOP as Bad as Dems on Spending

    It's simple: most tax returns over $200,000/yr come from small businesses, like LLCs and Subchapter S entities. Think of the pizza parlors, McDonalds/Burger King restaurants, diners, lawyers and doctors, retail shops, autorepair shops, etc. My wife and I have a trading partnership and we employ...

    CATO: GOP as Bad as Dems on Spending

    Practically everything you say here is wrong. Here's how I see things: 1. W's tax cuts were for everybody who paid taxes, with a tilt towards benefiting the lower wage earners. 2. Most money went to upper level tax payers because they pay the most money - that's how %s work. Those who pay a...

    CATO: GOP as Bad as Dems on Spending

    I don't know who you're quoting, and, remember, most journalists by far are leftists, but here's a reasonable article on the subject: Lower Tax Rates Mean Faster Economic Growth by Alan Reynolds, senior fellow with the Cato Institute This article originally appeared on Creators.com on...

    CATO: GOP as Bad as Dems on Spending

    That's not what happens at all. By taking resources (eg, money, less regulation, freedom to invest and reap benefits, etc) out of the incompetent hands of the bureaucrats who don't care either way what happens, and leaving them in the hands of entrepreneurs, GDP goes up and so do tax revenues...
