guess who wants to get the deficit under control, but at the same time only wants to cut programs instead of asking the uber rich to pony up.

Guess where the jobs for the uber middle class come from?

DING DING DING DING

the Uber rich!

sorry, but as much as both sides claim that they want the government to be funded and the budget to be balanced and the debt to be reduced each has different ways of doing it.

sticking the screws to the Uber rich - even if you taxed them at 99% is not going to reduce the debt.

the alternative is cutting the budget and eliminating some $900,000,000,000 a year in BS

the dems have their answer and the GOP has it's answer to the budget issues...

the GOP wants to, you know... cut the budget. tighten the belt. like responsible families do at home when things get tight. Sometimes you have to give up golf and steak dinners for a while.

the Dems want to leave the budget the same and go across town and simply take money from the guys in the bigger houses and continue to play golf and eat steak.

It just don't work that way.
