Quote from crm99:
Yeah, I'm sure there are abuses but unfortunately the caricatures we draw on both sides do not help in either fixing them or even getting to the real issue of 10% unemployment and 25% for the young. (That's the next generation that has had a lot the jobs it could learn on exported to slave nations)
Lunch break here, I don't have time for daytime drama. But hey, shouldn't you kiss the ass of some rich billionaire just about now. Make sure that he doesn't get upset with you and takes his business to Commie China?
No time for daytime drama, but plenty of time to call for tax hikes on the "rich." But no mention of the untold billions being stolen from taxpayers (and the "next generation" you claim to care about) in the name of stimulus, AKA "gross misallocation of resources."
I love how none of those screaming for tax hikes say a word about things like the $111 million stimulus in CA that created 55 jobs. Or expensive studies on African men's genitilia washing habits paid for by U.S. "stimulus" dollars (now don't get too excited on that one!) Or the "jobs saved" in imaginary congressional districts by stimulus dollars:

The list goes on and on. This garbage and other billions spent on pork is what should be cut. The "rich" actually save/invest to support our capital markets, spend money in their communities and often provide jobs. Not so with absurdly misallocated stimulus.
Maybe you should spend time on some other site. Last I heard, this site was for successful or aspiring traders who didn't want the bulk of their wealth taxed away and wasted.
Farewell.
