The Bush Tax cuts...

[Ryan Stewart]

The valid argument is that I am not responsible for their bad decisions.

[e30e]

An abortion is cheaper than 18 years of them living off welfare and potentially going into the jail system; short cited answers like family values show that people have no understanding of social/economic morality issues that face this country. Not everyone makes excellent decisions all the time; some people make bad choices and do not understand that because they were never taught that. Common sense and morals are not born in us, there taught to us. I'm not stating hands outs should be everywhere but there is not simple answer that people make good and bad decisions such as getting pregnant at 16.

Subsidies benefit a lot of people, you like cheap milk, bread, and eggs well that's because its subsidized.
There a lot of people that have no idea that the childcare there children received, EVEN some of our members received was subsidized so your parents could go to work and pay into the system opposed to sit on there ass at home.

As for tax cuts, its been stated by quite a few wealthy people that an extra couple thousand dollars does not mean shit to them; they'll find ways to recoupe it.

It's so funny when guys who are so far from earning $250k a year are so eager to defend those who actually make the dough. But hey, if your master makes money, maybe you can get some tip when you wipe his ass. It's called the slave mentality.

A compromise in the bill and its impact on the AMT impacts couples making under 80k, if the gf and I wed we would be well above that and save considerably.

Also, by your logic I shouldnt support gay/female/minority rights since I'm not actually in those groups.

First, its Medicaid not Medicare that would take care of that problem. And I say do away with Medicaid completely. No fucking handouts for anyone!

Your example is the lack of family values and morals. The responsibility falls back on the family of said teens. Not the back of the American people!

As for your filibuster, the tax issue is a more important issue due to the fact there is only 18 days left in this year before the tax rate goes back to pre-Bush tax break. Get that taken care of and then Im sure they will take care of the few 9-11 responders.

Holy shit, could not agree anymore!!! Why should I pay for a girls abortion?? It's not my responsibility. Fuck medicaid in general :hitler:

Ya, and end up with millions of pregnant teens and newborn babies to load up the Medicare ranks... that'll help.

MLee,

Since you are such a charity, why don't you start handing out some free brakes to those that cant afford it.

So the Republicans used the fillibuster to block a funding bill for 9/11 responders and their families. Why? Because they insist that the richest 2% of Americans must not let their tax rates rise 3%.

Wow, how's that feel Tea Party guys? The Republican's just said 'Fuck you and your service to our country' because a nice big bonus to their rich buddies is more important:

Looks like the Party of No is back in action!

Keep food subsidies and planned parent hood, you want food to triple the cost and tons of pregnant girls running around hungry?

[CorvallisBMW]

Defund Planned Parenthood. 350 million but it all adds up...

Ya, and end up with millions of pregnant teens and newborn babies to load up the Medicare ranks... that'll help.

[joshh]

well isn't it time for big unpopular cuts?

eliminate ethanol subsidies
would save about $60 billion

Pay no taxes? I've been right in that bracket and I never got a refund! Not mention sales and use taxes, property tax, tax on investment dividends, fuel taxes, and self-employment tax.

He's confusing the "Income" tax along with the other "Payroll" taxes. Everyone has income/SS/Medicaid taxes taken out, and some states have a state level income tax as well.

[gwb72tii]

kill all farm subsidies

[KenC]

trim military spending by 10%... would save a little over $100bil
