No not really. They are both pretty much the same. Both parties wh2re themselves out to the highest bidder.

That I would agree with. That part will not likely change as long as politicians rely on that money to get elected. They are all guilty. Hillary just last week made 400k doing a couple of speeches for Goldman's. http://www.businessinsider.com/hillary-clinton-goldman-sachs-speeches-2013-10

And that is just for the real estate side. Investment taxes, estate taxes, and a handful of other one are in there as well.

I think that is what many liberals can't get there head around. They think they are successful because of tax breaks and yet fail to mention or understand that most started at the bottom and worked their way up. The only difference is they made the most of their opportunities and didn't make...

Happy Birthday! Enjoy your day!

You are making a liberal assumption that corporate America isn't paying taxes. Or...not enough. Back to that global economy thing again. Companies here in the US pay almost the highest rate in the world in taxes. Doesn't mean they don't get tax breaks but if they go somewhere else you have a...

I don't think there is any question that some game the system to their advantage. I think that will always be there. But your article confirms that there isn't enough of them one percenters to pay for everyone else. That is why we are 17 trillion in debt.

I can't believe you left that out! :cool: I think I could support that policy!

Made a slight adjustment. Want to make sure I can provide therapy sessions at more than one place. ;)

No...there is no federal verification on navigators. Some states are doing background checks but not all. The republicans are introducing a bill to shut them down. I couldn't find that specific link from yesterday but this one explains among several others. ACORN Redux: The ObamaCare...

Only on Fridays.;)

Typical fleet owner. Just sittin here countin money. :cool:

That is true. A local TV station went undercover and filmed the navigators do that exact same thing. Shouldn't be surprised though as they were all people from the ACORN group. That is the same morons that got busted trying to get people to vote for Obama during the last election.

Navigators are the ones hired by the government to help people apply. The downside is you are giving your personal information to someone who might not be screened or qualified. The secretary of health already said in last weeks hearing that you could be giving your information to a previous...

I still think the 27k is really just the navigators that signed up. They aren't talking.;)

You aren't getting anything for the money because it gets paid and the government wastes it. That we do agree on. That is why you don't see any "bang for the buck". As for business tax, you wrote, I interpreted that as you were for raising business taxes or "doing something to earn them"...

But you are against giving tax breaks to business. Can't have it both ways. As far as taxes, for a variety of reasons, that "47 percent" are getting benefits from the government. The top ten percent or "the rich" foot the bill. As a percentage, the rich pay far more taxes than the average joe...

No....not true. It is those tax breaks that have brought Volvo, Volkwagan,Mercedes, Daimler,Toyota, Hyundai, Nissan and the list goes on. But you do notice the effects of unions on these places. I would say it has worked. Take those jobs away and see what you have. On a side note, what...

Thirty years ago you could use that thinking. We are now in a global economy so the US can't price itself out of the market. Have to realize that many of the largest investors that "create jobs" are foreign investors. They want tax breaks to come here. Give them none, and they go somewhere else...

That is the problem. Some seem to think a low wage/low skill job should provide for a family. They aren't designed for that. As far as greed at the top, that certainly exists but it is really a small number and continues to shrink. If you took every penny they have, you are nowhere close to...
