    The cost of the new regulations accounting to your source is 1/10 of 1%.

    Versus poisoning our air and water. We can afford it.

    You show that your partisanship does not allow you to look at truth

    What, and your not a rabid partisan? LOL

    You don't know what truth is because you don't know the difference between opinion from fact. You constantly cite to opions in right wing blogs as if that establishes fact. You say ridiculous things like "spending equals debt" because you simply accept the opinions and misstatements you hear in the right wing propaganda world you live it.

    Remember the other day you cited those sources for proof, and I printed the article as asked you to point out the facts and you could not identify one fact?
    That's what I mean.

    Not to the point of repeating myself what others have already addressed

    I am an independent so I am not partisan. I do lean towards the GOP but since they no longer care about conservatives they mean little.

    The problem is you claim opinions so you do not have to address the facts.

    Sometimes you just yell about the source because you can not prove it wrong.

    If you can not prove it wrong don't blame me.

    Conservatives know Obama is hurting the country. You will not admit Obama has done anything wrong you are to busy blaming Bush.

    Guess who I see as the moron.

    Proof FAIL. Conservatives "know" the distorted and false facts they are fed by the right wing propaganda media, as your almost every post shows.


    That is once again a false characterization of my positions. I have disagreed with Obama on a few things, including extending the Bush tax cuts, not pushing to repeal them completely, and more recently, signing the Defense appropriations bill.


    Guess who I see as the moron.

    For the record, my post was misquoted above.

    Most of your posts are defending Obama. Your posts are not misquoted or misunderstood. You are an Obamabot. You do not think for yourself you blindly follow and believe Obama and the democrats

    The tax system is no longer about a group of people grouping together for public works and paying our combined bill. It's been taken over by folks who feel life is unfair and government should 'fix' that.

    We took religion out of government because there is danger in imposing one man's morality on another. Seems we didn't learn the lesson.

    Thanks for sharing your opinion. IMO, you are a misinformed blind right wing partisan hack.

    Exactly my point.

    It's pretty inane to demand that someone prove a vague generalized opinion is wrong, isn't it?

    You pay sales tax and import duties. You pay taxes on your gasoline, telephone, electricity, and probably cable. A tax is money taken from people by the government. You can call it what you want but you still pay it. And the taxes I cited are far more regressive than the Federal income tax.

    Funny how you go there. This shows how wrong the present tax system is. We need tariffs on imports and a new tax system

    You figure a trade war would be just the ticket, eh?

    They tried that in 1930.

    Why should foreign goods have an advantage over domestic goods?

    What are the American goods in the foreign countries? The credit lines? I thought US banks have already plundered away their loan cash, including the part that is backed by the FED/printer.
