You guys keep hashing this out. Sounds like you are on the verge of agreement.

I am a person that believes the more I am left alone the better I will be. Lately the government keeps getting in the way.

Yeah, tax the rich. Guess what that will get you. Higher prices on everything you purchase. Taxes paid by companies and corporations are part of their overhead. They factor it into the cost of producing and selling their products. The more you tax, the higher the price of the products they produce. Look at what happened when fuel costs went up. Food prices at the grocery store went up to cover increased costs of transporting food to the stores.

Simplify the tax code so that these people don't have to hire a gaggle of lawyers and CPA's to digest throught the miles of paperwork that is our tax code. That alone should reduce the overhead for large companies and reduce the cost of producing a product.

I have always taken care of myself once I left home. I was brought up that you don't get something for nothing. I can't stand it for somone to mooch off of me anymore than I can stand someone to mooch off of the government. I see alot of able bodied people that can work and should be working but because they made a choice to do something stupid. They can't get a job. Next thing you know they need food stamps, welfare, and section 8 housing to keep from feeling the pain of starvation. What did people do in the 1800's when there wasn't much of this government help going around? They got off their supple bum and worked for it. What have we become and where are we headed? China? USSR? N. Korea?

Dang Liberal Crap! Help your neighbor with a helping hand and not a hand out.

I think they need to start holding elections on weekends. That way they will get more people to vote. I know of alot of people who didn't get to vote because of their work schedule or didn't have the time. Just imagine if their was a national holiday just dedicated to voting. Might be long lines all day, but make it more of a tailgate party and have a great time. I'll bring the chips and dip!

I'm for a national voting holiday. And severely punish those who try to deny legitimate voters the right to vote.

I'm also for helping hands, and not hand outs.

Dang, we're in agreement! Problem solved! Can we work together?

Wait a minute, back to broad brushes...Let's resume the arguments. Let's see, where were we - I'm a lazy bum (not really) and you're tired of paying my way (you aren't).

Now who's painting with a broad brush!

Seems as though you might have felt a personal attack in my words, let me clear this up, I don't know you, I did not single you out.

As for the rights of others, everyone has the same rights at this point (at least in our country), ask yourself why married women voted for Romney and single women voted for Obama, you can do the same for all of the others who voted either way. I am sure you can see fault in that statement as well.

I won't go too deep into my personal beliefs but to say, everyone should be equal, nobody should have to be taxed to care for others, taxes should be used for infrastructure, we should all contribute.

If YOU want to help those who won't help themselves, help yourself.

Anybody know the dollar amount of tax paid by Romney? or Gates? I'm sure they didn't pay their fare share... If Buffet wants to write a check to government, all he has to do is pick up a pen.[/u]

I think I stole this quote from here, but if not, here you go:

"Arguing with a Liberal is like playing chess with a pigeon.

No matter how well I can play chess,

The pigeon is going to knock over the pieces, crap on the board, and prance around like he has won the game"

CS - Hereby slinking into the shadows of further Political Commentary, even if it is on the Off Topic area of the Board.

Honestly CS........................... Here it is Friday morning, I'm checking things out before heading off for a midday to evening bow hunt, and I read this! I actually DID laugh out loud and am still smiling as I type!!! Cool

That sentiment says all that needs saying pal! Facts and/or the truth don't matter to lefties (remember, "the ends justify the means"), it's all about how they "feel", and making important decisions based on feelings bereft of any factual evidence is why we have our current situation!

This is true - I've never been too concerned with facts. If I was all about facts, I would have become a scientist or something else stupid like that.
