Well, since Obama expressed support prior to the House Vote to reward failure with 700 billion dollars, it's not all that big of a stretch to find that his tax plan punishes success.
Since I keep seeing this reward failure, punish success phrase parroted over and over I know it must have come from one of the conservative talking heads like O'Reilly or Limbaugh. Do you guys ever come up with an original thought of your own or is that the reason why you listen to these windbags in the first place?
I digress though.
What I really want to ask is if you are aware that it was George Bush that proposed the plan to reward failure?
You know, that Republican guy in the White House?
Did you also know that the other Republican guy that wants to replace him in the White House also voted for the plan to reward failure?
Of course!
But...hey...picking the lesser of two evils is the way to go.
At least, we won't see a repeat of the past event of such lines of thought such as "A Person In Every Home!" that brought us to where we are right now.
I'm kind of amused by being stereotyped. (You lefties sure love to do that. That's how you came up with "White Privilege"!). I'm actually pro-gay marriage and pro-choice, but the rest of my views tend to fall in line with the conservative perspective since they mostly represent my own inner values. You know...personal responsibility, personal achievement....stuff like that.
I simply don't want a President who agrees with the idea of "sharing the wealth", because it comes right around to this bullshit socialist agenda of "economic fairness". Everything has to be "fair". You earn more money than me via your own personal accomplishments? Oh, well, we can't have that! You own your own house, but I don't? Bring on the sub-prime mortgages! You discriminate against me? Well, we'll discriminate against you!
It's not the actual details of the tax plan that I have a huge grind against or it's comparison to the tax system as it is now, but rather the line of thought behind it that produced it. A line of thought that brought us....
Social Security! God, I wish I could keep that money out of every check and devote it to my own retirement account and disability plan without the wonderful added bonus of government waste consuming half of it!
Welfare! Another stunning achievement!
Affirmative Action! Combating racism with lowered expectations, discrimination, and portraying minorities as inferior? FAILURE!
The Unfairness of Not Being In a House! Thanks for the economy!
With such stunning social successes to boot, why won't I see the light and abandon my "lemming ways" of following around Rush Limbaugh! (Psst....don't tell my rich white Republican Protestant buddies (Another stereotype for ya), but I watch and listen to liberal commentators as well)
Actually, you know what...fuck it...we're already nationalizing the banks and housing industries....bring on the tax cuts...I will need them to afford gas and food next year when inflation from 700 billion dollars rolls in!
OBAMA 2008!
