Innocent minds are being destroyed

Because the tax cuts CREATED those jobs which spurred production which increased $$$ available to government which raised taxes to cover more giveaway programs. When the economy is booming, a little tax rate increase here and there go almost unnoticed....that is, until government meddling in the free market crashed the economy which lost its momentum as revenue decreased. Unfortunately that 'little tax here and there' did not go away and is now not so affordable. And so it goes......

 

I suggest you do a little research on my religion as it does not teach such nonsense.

 

Or she fell asleep. Honestly, church is boring, and she probably had nothing to talk about. I do not like to call myself a christian, because as we all know, most Christians do not follow the teachings of Christ, and I agree she probably was being fed crap, which is one of the reasons why I stopped going to church.

But I honestly think she was so bored she just didn't care...

 

Sorry I cant do liberal pretend math because the OP requested that we get back on topic.

 

By the way this the post where you brought YOUR thread off topic not me. Go back and see for yourself. If you're so upset with what your wife is doing why don't you do something about it instead of transferring your anger onto a forum. Seems to me you focus your anger on conservatives because they tend to go to church. Do you go to church with your family or do you stay home?

 

There were lots more jobs when Reagan was cutting taxes. Why not just raise taxes to 100% if that is so great? If you think taxes are too low you are free to send in more money to the government.

Stop projecting. Church is the highlight of my week, and I have a pretty interesting life.

 

That's about the most nonsensical thing I've seen on this forum, higher taxes and minimum wage lead to less employment.

 

Just like Obama. The only thing he's run is his mouth.

 

That was BEFORE 35 years of Reaganomics. We used to be a rich country. But now, according to conservatives, we can't even afford to fix the roads or put our children through elementary school. Conservatism has failed miserably as it ALWAYS does. But for the delusional the answer to the problems conservatism causes is more conservatism!

 

Could one of you so called "moderators" do your damned job here? And BTW the only reason I'm asking is because you seem to have no problem slapping me with a tos when I say a LOT less than this! I'm sure I'll get one just for pointing this out to you.

 

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the liberal definition of "respect for women" in action right here.

Look at the way this guy talks down to his wife. Look at the utter contempt he has for the woman he is supposed to love. This is what liberalism does to people. It makes them caustic and antagonistic. He doesn't even have the decency to marry someone he is more compatible with. Instead, he marries someone that he knows does not share his views and then belittles her for being herself. This is what he teaches his children and grandchildren about how a man is supposed to treat a woman. And he's worried about other people corrupting innocent minds. Unbelievable.

 

What I said had NOTHING whatsoever to do with her being a woman. And everything to do with her believing superstitious nonsense. At least she has the intelligence to know that what I said was true. That's why she's afraid to discuss it.

Funny how conservatives have to point their finger at every trivial thing a liberal does in order to COMPENSATE for their own shortcomings.

No, what's failed is both parties and their belief that it's okay to spend other people's money and money that the goobermint does not have.

That's something I have a hard time with.

If the goobermint is a representative of the people, shouldn'[t it follow the same rules and laws as the people it represents in order to be a part of the American community and to understand the needs of the people better?

I hate special privileged and double standards to no end and almost psychotically.

Partisan politics is a huge problem in America and is tearing this country apart, allowing the socialist and communist Progressives to enact legislation that socializes and comepletely break America's spine and turn it into a tyranny so they can loot it is the biggest hurdle America faces.

America was never meant to have an all powerful all seeing government, it was meant to be a system that gives power to the people, not to the elitist snobs who care nothing but their own greed and power.

 

The US government is not a representative of the people in the sense that common people would like to think. This government is a Corporation, doing business like any other corporation. It's only concern is insuring that the political power holders (those elected to office) are guaranteed a fat paycheck for the rest of their lives.... while sucking the monetary life out of anyone that is not a major stockholder in that corporation. The common people out here on the streets like to fancy that they are represented in Congress or even in their local legislative body. However, if you should inquire of one of them (even your district representative) that person within the highest probability will not know you from Adam. Government today in the US is a fraud and a legalized mafia.

 

I think we've had enough examples of conservative delusions. Can we PLEASE get a monitor to do his damned job?

 

Then simply don't answer any questions on the subject.

There is little wrong in bringing up a child in the beliefs of its parents in the Western World. Here we have freedom of speech, freedom of interpretation and eventually the child will able to decide for itself what it wishes to believe. The world outside the home is a world where religious values are not held highly and children soon begin question for themselves. Trying to combat teaching in a small childs life can lead the child into being confused and unsure. Security is what a small child needs, not confusion. Better to leave things until a child is old enough to understand differences and then it will question for itself.

Austerity does work, but it is painful, usually for those who can least afford austerity. It has always seemed to me that the US open door policy 'Give me your poor......', while once a benefit, has now become a burden. I don't think that the US can afford the population it has, nor has the influx of so many different cultures added anything. But that's only my view.

I am a UK citizen, English to the core, and it grieves me that this country is going the same way.

 

I'm talking about Obama, not you.

 

LOL, the US recovery under Reagan was so impressive that at the 1983 G7 Economic summit the West German Chancellor asked Reagan to tell him about "the US miracle".

Under Reagan,

Interest rates dropped from 21.5% to 10%

Gross National Product rose 26%

The net worth of families with income of $20,000-$50,000 rose 27%

Unemployment dropped from 7.6% to 5.5%

Over 16,000,000 new jobs were created.

Under Reagan, adult black unemployment fell by 20%, but under Obama, it has increased by 42%.

Black teenage unemployment fell by 16% under Reagan, but has risen by 56% under Obama.


When you have economic policies the opposite of Obama, you get the opposite results. How can you call the above results 'failing miserably'? I guess for some people, not even hindsight vision is 20/20.

 

Exactly, as Milton Friedman used to say, you can't have both open borders and a welfare state. Someone tell me why we are spending billions educating and giving medical care to illegal aliens while we don't have enough money to take care of our veterans?

I'm afraid so, you have big problems with your Muslims and will only have more. What will you do when 51% of a locale vote for Sharia Law?

 

Er. Deport to the Middle East comes to mind. English law takes preference and I don't think the English will tolerate an Islamic 'state' within its borders. Look at the latest European elections in the UK. The biggest vote went to the anti-immigration/anti Europe party. At 75 I probably will not be around to see it.

 

Agreed, if the UK isn't sufficiently repressive for them they need to move. It seems many Muslims are more interested in domination than assimilation. There are already Sharia courts operating in the UK.

Let's hope your country will push back. They didn't give in to Hitler and I don't think they will to these Islamofascists.

 

And then we have a 'conservative' doing nothing but attacking. Showing the 'good' side of conservatism?

 

You were actually saying that the only thing that the two term President of the United States has run is his mouth?

And who or what is just like Obama? I thought you were talking about me.

Ya know I really wouldn't give a (*)(*)(*)(*) what you say if the moderators hadn't just given me an infraction for saying that conservatives lie. I rest my case!

 

Yeah its amazing how well you can live if you are willing to run up all your credit cards and fling money in all directions. But that was BEFORE the GOP bankrupted the country. Then just blame it on the guy who's there when the bills come due.

 

Yes, I don't consider being a community organizer, or Senator for that matter, a qualification for president. Being a senator isn't an executive position, all you do is vote (or in Obama's case, vote 'present') with little accountability.

Only in that you've probably never run a business considering the things you say.

Calling someone a liar will do it every time.
