Kneesh, I don't know if you are misinformed, or misspeaking, but a few times I've read you say that the Middle and Low class pay most ofthe taxes. That's not true.

They pay a larger percentage than the rich, but even so, the rich still pay the majority of the taxes.

I just wanted to be clear, because I know you are an educated young woman, and I believe I know what you are saying, but I want your statements to be educatedas well.

That is all.

You're 100% right . My fault , that's what I meant to say ... came out wrong .

 

[haiti5]

You just made your argument null and void with that statement. It's their money, as you said, therefore they have earned that right to be selfish with it especially if they earned it.

there is no right to be selfish..THATS UNAMERICAN..i know racists who would disagree with you

Stoneface me if you want. Until welfare and medicaid are reformed to prevent fraud people will always feel this way.
dude are you serious. they have been implmenting programs to literally FORCE people to work, i dont know too much about fraud but i have neverseen someone purposely get on welfare. its an embarassment and carries a negative stigma. it does need to be reformed tho but not because of fruad imo

They closet racists Haiti

not true. I think that was addressed in someone else's comments.
I dont know the numbers..but they probably pay the highest %tage of their net income in taxes though

How can you judge how hard someone has worked to get to their high - income job ? Granted some work for it , but most had the opportunity . Whether it was their families income ALREADY or by them knowing someone .
See...but not you are judging them... You're assuming they didn't work hard to get to where they were. By you assuming... you're justas culpable as those judging the lower income earners
I know a lot of people who have worked really hard from lower income status and are earning a high wage now. They made their own opportunity...it wasn'thanded to them

Someone like Jay-Z I can CLEARLY see griping about taxes being raised , or even Oprah . THEY worked hard . But you don't see them complaining . Granted their million/billionaires , but still .
Why should they complain?...at the end of the day...they still have millions/billions? It's the upper middle class...the %tage of theirincome is going to go more towards taxes.

Just because you have a higher paying job or higher job doesn't mean you worked harder , plain and simple
I do think that most higher income earning jobs, people have had to work hard to get to that position.

Grow up.

you know what a new low is?...this many people wanting a president that will "spread the wealth" and give people money they don't deserve and take money from the hard working people who earned everything they have... that is the lowest of low

Everybody has an equal oppurtunity in this country. What matters is if you take advantage of your oppurtunity or if you just sit there and expect the government to hand you everything.

ARE U SERIOUS..???....

DUMBEST THING I'VE EVER HEARD ALMOST......

Obama doesn't want change, he wants to mortgage the future of you and your children.
Do you know he supported the financial bailout of wall st.?
The face of the president may have changed, but the boss still remains the same.

so did McCain

the republicans already mortgaged the future since they joined in 2000

I'd rather get mortgaged by liberals

Thank you for proving my point. On the surface they may seem different, but fundamentally they are identical.
They want to maintain the status quo.

 

[knightngale]

According to a 2006 profile of Emanuel in Fortune magazine, Rep. Tom Cole of Oklahoma warned his fellow Republicans of Emanuel's ferocity in a letter two years ago.
"He's dangerous," Cole told Fortune then. "He has a closing intensity. When he's got a political kill in sight, he's absolutely relentless."

seems like Obama made the right choice if republicans think he is "dangerous"

I shall call him General Rahm

Dirty,

I request that you stop making sense on NT. This is no place for rational thought.

except for when he blindly defends the GOP and things related

 

[daytona 5000]

How are you or anyone who blindly defends Obama any different though?
You just admitted that you would happily let liberals mortgage your future.
