You fella's lighten up on GB. Its a rule and a good one. We've been granted a little leeway in lieu of the traumatic week and horrible election results but when things cool a bit it'll be back to pretty much gun related or anti second amendment post.
Mans doing his job so grant him a little slack.
I'm usually the one accused of having the itchy trigger finger around here. Kind of takes the heat off some huh?

Both sides are fast out of the starting gate. Lots of layoffs, then the ATT, assault weapons ban, new "business czar" position discussed, the fiscal cliff (O's way or the highway), all in less than a week. Buckle up, it's gonna be a rough ride and the destination isn't anyplace we want to go.

FYI - Nothing like the facts..
First, even under the GOP’s own flawed definition of small business, approximately 97% of taxpayers with small business income would be completely unaffected by the President’s plan: According to estimates by Tax Policy Center, about 97% of taxpayers reporting business income would not be impacted by the President’s tax proposals -- which only affect those earning over $250,000. This has been confirmed by the independent Congressional Research Service, which concluded that “only a small fraction of businesses will be affected [by allowing the temporary income tax cuts to expire for people earning over $250,000 a year], around 2% to 3%.”

are those numbers (250K) based on gross or after overhead, taxes, payroll et cetera.....? im curious, as many small businesses tend to make one million dollars in a year but after paying employees, lease on the building, taxes, insurance et cetera the small business owner takes home less than 250K...so what number are they using as the basis?

it doesn't matter because we are all in trouble anyway unless they stop spending, WHICH THEY WON'T, because they will never take in enough taxes or grow the economy enough to pay for all the votes that they are buying through entitlements and give aways. AND THE MILITARY IS NOT THE PLACE TO CUT SPENDING!!!!!!

The big affect in my work (computer web programming) is no more full time jobs. Everything is now short term contract. My personnel taxes (California) are going up 12,000 dollars this next year. I am cutting expenses. Starting with anyone I think voted for the Democrats.
Finally my wife decided to let us leave California. So I checked into selling our houses. The real estate lady told me to sell before January because Obama tax set in and I have to pay 3.8% tax to sell my house. I can't be ready that fast.

Jerry, the problem with taxing the rich in the manner that the democrats propose is that not all of those who will be taxed are anywhere near rich. The democrats want to tax capital gains. Anyone who has a 401K, a mutual fund or dabbles in the stock market has to pay taxes on capital gains. What the 60% approval on taxing the rich shows is the general ignorance of the electorate. Bringing the rich down doesn't bring the poor up. Bringing the Rich down brings everyone down. You see it's the rich who hire the poor. Those making over $250,000 per year put a roof over your head, shoes on your feet, clothes on your back and food in your belly. Reelecting a socialist who failed to come through on 90% of his campaign promises shows the stupidity of the electorate.

I can't figure out why politicians can't just say, "Lowering tax rates encourages more economic activity and historically has resulted in increased tax revenue." It's so simple. They only seem able to mutter the vague and misleading, "Raise taxes" meme, without defining what that means. Raise tax rates? Raise tax revenues? Those are opposites. And they are both missing the more important point that we have a spending problem, not a revenue problem.
We are truly run by an idiocracy.

nobama and his crony democRATS know this. Their goal is not the growth of America, it's the reducing America to the level of other nations. What ignorant voters refuse to see is this is about sticking it to Americans. I'm feeling better knowing this is going to cause way more pain to those who think they're going to get free wealth from the rich.
Over the last year or so, my family has increased our consumption on the assumption that Americans would wake up and toss out this loser, especially after all his failures. Now we're going to tighten up and reduce. I've got a feeling many were loosening up believing the socialist in chief was done. I think a lot of people are going to reverse their habits. This is going to hurt the poor and young more than anyone. I can't think of anyone who deserves it more.
My niece has been looking for work for a year. Was telling us how relieved she was nobama was reelected. I just told her, "good luck on that job search, maybe in 4 years you won't be so gullible and ignorant". Sad part is, I could see the confusion in her eyes. I doubt she'll ever get a clue.

Two quick points. First, if these companies had announced the layoffs prior to the election, we just may have had a different outcome. Shame on them for doing it now.
Second, doesn't anyone remember the Investment Tax Credit from the 80's. Companies got tax credits for retooling plants, updating their computer infrastructure, buying capital equipment for fleets, etc. What this did was get companies spending on capital goods and that in turn puts companies supplying those goods to work building them. It sure got us out of the doldrums of the 70's. Companies are reported to be cash rich at this time since they don't know how the economy is shaping up but an ITC would give them reason to spend and that's what's needed.
Just my humble opinion.

The companies didn't need to lay people off before the election. They are laying people off, because of the outcome of the election. If Obama goes forward with his, and I use this term loosely, "economic plan" it will force companies to lay people off, or file for Chapter 11. Just my humble opinion. To those of you who have never run a business, you have to make a profit to employ people unless you run a government.

Indiana, u have to pick aparty at leastin the priaries in order to vote. non affliated will get u naddain the primaries. Normally in my county, it isthe primaries that is the most important. I tend to vote more democrat in our primaries for our couty is about 90% demo's and most are good friends of mine andI can'thelp um if I vote repoblican in the primaries for NO ONE RUNS.

when ur talking abouty 47% who don't do nuttin, then really only 13% feel that way.Hell man u outta know u can twist a survey any fokking way u want to.
even Harry Reed now is starting to talk about taxing the super rich IMO sending a signal that the 200K guy is not in that class at all . which he definitely is not. And lets get serious, WHAT THE FOKK IS ALITTLE MORE.
1% 3% 30% 50%. These super rich or so called rich that make over 200K even are all gonna get caught in obama obamacare tax of 3.8% of investment ncome (which means ur damn home now to) of over 200K or 250K if married.
Now we want to add even more to the super rich. WTF. when do we stop, When do we stop with government speniding like there is no tomorrow.
In one county where Apple is located besides the federal income tax a person pays, he now pays almost 9% california income tax and then on top of that if you live in that county where apple is located u will pay anb additional 8+% county income tax, add all this up and u could very well be over 60% of ur income in taxes. and yet the 47% who pay nuttin want to reap the gold from the super rich.
Hell ask any person who doesn't work and gets welfare, or unemplopyment etc if the rich should pay more, What the hell do u think he is gonna say. What the hell do u think 99% are gonna say. Fokk it doesnt effect them so why not. Those surveys suck, they always have. Change the tax code, don't punish anyone for takeing the full advantage of the tax laws, be they rich or 200K people. damn we read of people who don't work even getting a damn tax refund. IMO they did no more than the rich are doing, they are abiding by the tax laws.
I say bull s!t on the tax the rich ALITTLE MORE. come up with a foking percent so we can see what kind of a person is saying that. U all are wise enough to know that ALITTLE MORE ain't gonna make a dent in our debt until the government cuts back ALOT
I ain't super rich, but I am above that 200K part easily, but I worked my fokking ass off for 40+ years to get that way and if I have to pay more, then can I at least ask the 47% who pay nutting to start paying sumpin. and that middle percetntage people who are not in that top 5% classification to pay alittle more to. or is that asking to much.
U keep putting bird seed in a feeder and they will bring their frineds tomorrow and more friends the next day and very soon they get totaly dependandt on that feeder and then u stop feeding the birds and they turn on u and sh!t all over your back porch and windows. Open ur eyes, look at Greece and Spain
\U will never convince me that there are not millions of wealthy democrats that have to be saying WTF are the democrats trying to do to us.
This country is not JUST ALITTLE IN DEBT, we are deep in debt and this taxing the rich ALITTLE MORE is just a political ploy that if it happens will do zilch towards our debt problems. But it surely will increase the hostility of class warefare, which IMO Obama has nurtured very well to the 95% of the people in this country who are not considered in that super rich classification, so hell why not stick it in the super rich's ass one more time. It doesn't effect me any. REMEMBER NIMBY
Hell just look at some of the business that willgo to part time emplyees so they don't have to pay any health care penalty or privide health care. Its a loop hole that the obama people forgot to close and now business will take advantage of it IF THEY SO DESIRE. :popcorn:

11-10-2012, 07:56 PM
Well, seems like nobody wants to face the music on spending. They say it must all come out of "entitlements". I understand the word, but fail to grasp the meaning. I guess they consider all those receiving payments from their retirement plans and 401K's entitlements also. I paid into Social Security for over 50 years and my income from it is proportional to what I paid in, much like my dad did. I paid into Medicare ever since it started and receive Medicare benefits. So I guess that puts me right down there with all the illegals receiving free education that they didn't pay into. Free medical that they didn't pay into, and so forth.
I admit I do feel entitled to received according to the rules from which I paid. I also pay into a medical/dental/vision plan so should I not receive the benefits from that plan either?
Well how about we start by stopping the $52.7B (2010 numbers) we pay out in foreign aid? How about we close down all bases on foreign soil and bring our military home. That would cover another $100B easily for $150B annually, or in Obama speak $1.5 TRILLION over the next decade. And that's without cutting any domestic spending, although much of that would follow without all the overseas contractors and materials supporting foreign deployment. Hey, just thought of how much fuel we burn flying back and forth across the oceans that could be saved. Good for the environment and our oil reserves too.
Then we can look at out government costs of doing business. Maybe don't redecorate all those offices and conference room each years and pass over a few "investigative missions" to foreign resorts that we pay for now. If we no longer have business there we shouldn't require all that difficulty of our senior administration personnel. There's another several hundred million here and there.
There are so many way out of this "fiscal cliff" that it makes our situation look like we are stuck in a paper bag, not a solid box with the lid nailed shut.
jocko
11-10-2012, 08:10 PM
but once again ur talking to most of the people here who paid into sumpin andcertanlly should expect to get it back.
Remember Socia lSecurity when it started would never be taxable--duh, fokkthat promise. Now some of the demo's even are saying that the super rich should not get any social security that they paid into all their workig years under duress even, because they now don't need it. \Duh fokk that sh!t to
But wait how about this. We had two damn years of payroll tax holidays,which amounted to my son of about 20 bucks a week on his paycheck or a grand a year, but it came out of his 2% Social security tax deduction from his paycheck. Duh , did this make sense. Now the damn politicians is say now if we don't address this payroll tax holiday they workers will have a 2% addition tax on him. Duh: fokk that logic.
the employee never ask for that 2% taken away from his SS saving in the first place, let alone ddi most even notice the $20 additional on their paycheck, which by the way was federal taxed also. Pure unadulterate bull sh!t on the demo's side and now they are in a squueze to try to keep that payroll tax holiday alive, instead of keeping the SS fund FUNDED.
while sittingin a waitingroomoneday in Huntswville,Alabama asmy doctor friend wasin a serious motorcycle accident (he died 5 weeks later there). anyway on the wall was a sign that basically said. If u are pregnant and walk in here and have noinsurance u willnot be denied medical care in any way shape or form.
Yet the first thing this hujtsvillehospital wanted to know form us birders who was with the doctor, was doe she have insurance??/Can u privide his companies name??? Oh yest ehy worke don him but put a lein on his property after he died until the bill was paid to their sartisfaction.
IMO this scenairo provides two complete different ENTITLEMENTS. One is paiud for and the other is "JUST EXPECTED".

the first targets, in my opinion, are abc, nbc, cbs, msnbc, cnn, and any of the more popular (relatively speaking) bird cage lining wastes of newsprint paper outlets. That's the number one targets for an all out boycott. When they start losing billions per year in advertising, they will either change their narrowly focused energies or dry up and blow away.
I haven't watched network programming (except for baseball) in over 20 years, and from what I hear, haven't missed a damned thing. I don't support the hollywood scum at the movies either. Let em all rot in their own litter boxes.
+1 I don't even watch the sports programming.

the problem is the same as being a one party voter.
you can not be conservative on everything nor liberal on everything and win.
fiscal conservative, yes, personal liberal yes......to say rein in the federal government is nice but then to say pregnancy from rape is a god send is stupid.
most people want the federal government to leave them the hell alone in their personal lives.
So what you're saying is that we should give up our conservative principles just to get elected. Well then, I support legalizing hard drugs, gay marriage, taxing the rich increasing the welfare state and banning guns. Wait a minute, now I sound just like a liberal democrat. Confusing isn't it?

just my not so humble opinion, but I believe that any person that thinks one can seperate their religious convictions, morals and principles from their political views, has little or no religious convictions, morals or principles. Those traits are at the very core of one's existence.
