Right-wingers, you can't keep cutting taxes and continue to maintain public services and our defense

[DainBramaged]

Our corporations and wealthy pay the lowest rates in the world, if they pay taxes at all thanks to the loopholes provided for the wealthy. And if you happen to regain power, and you decide to cut more taxes, than how are you going to pay for the massive defense spending bills, subsidies for your buddies in the oil, coal, livestock farming, timber, and crop farming industries? What, kill Social Security? Kill Medicaid and SSDI?


You're all fucking nuts and clueless. Since the era of the hallowed Ronnie Raygun until 2006, you fuckers have screwed the pooch and pissed away the future of the tax base YOU depended on, the Middle Class.


And you want to go back to that ruinous era?

1. My biggest problem with their philosophy is that they want to have their cake and eat it too.

They want to have the services, but not pay the taxes. No consistency. Just hypocrisy.

[JoePhilly]

5. They are the defenders of the "let them eat cake" government model.

2. Well then, we'll have to eliminate them services. But the army is sacred and cannot be touched.

Face it - they do not care about anyone other than themselves. Selfishness is ingrained in them and cannot be refuted.

You cannot use logic to counter a faith-based philosophy.

Which is why they must be eliminated from having any influence and removed from the scene.

me! me! me! me! me! me!

[EstimatedProphet]

4. They don't plan to

They'll cut social services, but the military is a sacred cow because it gives them money. Evantually they will cut social services and infrastructure to the point that the only viable employment options for most people is the military, which furthers their aims even more.

6. They just want billionaires' kids to never pay a dime in taxes

in their lives ... hoping that one of them will throw them a crumb ...

[alsame]

7. That's the point. They want to eliminate the public

services and privatize the military, schools, etc. They don't believe anything should exist unless it generates corporate profits.

8. Well sooner or later, probably sooner, the rich greedy a$$hole$ will have to pony up.

:silly:

[arbusto_baboso]

9. But, but.... cutting taxes INCREASES government revenue.

Right? RIGHT? :sarcasm:

[SammyWinstonJack]

10. LOL!

11. Reminds me of a scene from The Simpsons:

Smithers: Actually thanks to our creative bookkeeping and corporate loopholes, we only pay $3 a year.
Burns: You're right! We're getting screwed!

[niyad]

12. they don't care about public services--certainly the rw's running this county don't.

[OHdem10]

13. They are going after just what they want---Dismantling the

Social Safety Net(anything FDR or LBJ). Keep cutting taxes
an voila, one day there is no money to pay for Social Programs.
It is called Starving the Beast. There is a definite method
in their madness.
