Yes you did. Earned money is property. The money in my wallet is my property. And you are openly advocating taking more, and spending as your party sees fit. You are advocating economic slavery.

I do agree that we should be paying more out of our paychecks though to give people

The government has not proven to be able to deliver any product cheaply. Healthcare will be no different. If you want better health care the private sector could do it better. You want better schools? Spending more money is not the answer. What's needed is standards. If only democrats would understand that schools are there to educate kids....not to be a jobs program for adult teachers. Gotta get rid of the teachers unions. And people's paychecks is none of my concern. That is between the employer and the prospective employee.

Your party recklessly spends its money on crap! Why do we need anymore ships or submarines?

And you wonder why the Democrats suck on national security issues. The party platform itself says this.

But No! Your party's greed doesn't care and you just admitted that in your post by saying that your party doesn't feel the need to give hand outs to people. It's your party that causes the poor and lower middle class to stop spending at your inflated prices - which leads to stock market crashes and depressions because the poor are finally going to say they aren't going to work for you and your company anymore. Once that happens you make no money, the rich make no money, the middle class make no money, and neither do the poor. Prices will then have to drop dramatically because the rich certainly aren't going to spend a lot of money on anything if they aren't making money off the poor people anymore.

Rubbish. 27 out of 30 of the most generous states are Republican in charitable giving. 17 out of the 20 least generous states are Democrat states. And no, I don't want to just give handouts to people. I'd rather create opportunities for people with a better performing economy. I'd rather raise people up to a better standard. Some people fall on hard times, true. I have myself at times. But in a free society you have the responsibility to get back up and pull your own weight.
And what are you talking about with "inflated prices"? Prices have never been lower on consumer goods. Even gasoline is coming down. You have never taken an economics course and it shows.

You make your party sound more like a club of pompas arrogant jerks by saying you can't be a member unless you make it rich and wealthy somehow!

Nope. Never said that. But it's nice to pursue better opportunities for yourself and your family. If you have a family, it's stupid and irresponsible not to. |
Nobody said the US school system was perfect.
