It now must be clear to everyone that the sole purpose of the republican party is to keep the country in a perpetual state of economic colapse. They actually want the country to continue to fail to improve there chances in the next election. This is treason!
Who are you really?

Originally posted by im backI don't think so. I think the Republican agenda is one of honorable intentions. The GOP is right in pointing out that spending is out of control. The basic flaw in the Conservative way of thinking (and I'm a Democrat) is: If companies have less taxes, less regulation, and more profits, this will result in more hiring, and greater economic prosperity. This is simply untrue. Companies on the S&P 500 are raking in record profits in these lean times, and are doing very little hiring, yet Republicans still cling to this deeply flawed "Trickel Down" supply side theory that has never worked in the real world.

Another issue that Republicans don't seem to want to address is who really hires workers in America. The GOP seems to have forgotten that it is small and medium sized business's that provide most of the jobs in America...NOT the S&P 500, yet Republicans doggedly seek to coddle and curry favor with these folks. They consistently vote to give the rich the most tax loopholes, and favorable legal treatment. The GOP pays lip service to the small business people at election time, but you'll notice it's mostly the the rich that benifit from the policies of the GOP.
Are Republicans treasonous?? I don't think so...but there agenda is deeply flawed. 😏
Originally posted by bill718Small business does 2/3 of the hiring traditionally every year. That is why giving the S&P tax breaks will NEVER increase jobs. However, both parties are dependent on corporate dollars for their campaign financing. That is why all the money and tax breaks goes to them as the rest of us be damned. In fact, if the Stimulus money had been given to the average Joe, it would have given us each about $17,000 a peice!!

I am really sick of Dems who harp about increasing taxes. I mean, if you were to take all the money from billionares in the US it might pay for about a month of debt in the US. The bottom line is that spending needs to be reigned in. However, neither side will ever do that no matter what they may say to the contrary. Both sides will see to it that their little games will continue and try to convince you to blame the other party for all your woes.

Originally posted by bill718The way both parties have wracked up debt and played the blame game I would say both have acted in a treasonous way.

Wouldn't decreasing debt by 8.3% in one fell swoop be a good start though?
It would be worth it just to see George Soros with a sign, "Will crash (nation of choice) economy for food" sign.
Originally posted by FMFOf course not. Its called an exageration FMF. I will say is that power and influence is not directly all attributable to direct campaign financing.
99.9% of the campaign financing in the U.S. comes from billionaires? Have you got a link?
Counting dollars in their world is fruitless. For example, I read that Joe Biden is only worth a little over $100,.000 on paper even though he lives on a fabulous estate with a myriad of mansions.
Originally posted by whodeyBut counting dollars with regard to reducing debt is not fruitless, whodey. Are you claiming Joe Biden is a billionaire? And what does Joe Biden's furtiveness in his financial reporting have to do with whether or not we calculate the debt in dollars and whose taxes are increased and decreased?

We all know the major spending programs that need to be curtailed. It is only a matter of having the will to do so. Unfortunately, iit doesn't exist.
