How stupid are you? Food stamps have been on a continuous rise with each and every president. It hasn't started when Obama took office. It's been like this for a long time. Secondly, you can thank the previous administration for the economic problems and job losses due to the tax cuts that you and your ilk support so badly. Wait...wait...what sort of illogical talking points are you getting your ideas from again?
No doubt. And funny that Iggy only wanted to focus on what he sees as people "bitching" and "whining" about conservatives but seemingly just ignored everything else I said: Funny how that mindset works, huh?
Well, then if Romney wins, then we as a country are finished. America would have fallen by then, and not just economically. It may just be best to pack your bags and leave. My grandmother already vowed to return to her homeland (Caribbean islands) if Romney won.
Nice personal attack. I get restricted if I talk shit but BBW is allowed to and the mods dont do anything. Sounds completely fair.:roll: If you libs cant see the danger in more & more of our citizens becoming dependent on the gov, then there is zero hope for you.
It's not a personal attack. I'm merely questioning your post altogether, let alone your intelligence. Unlike you, who basically called me a "freak" out of maliciousness and childish diatribe. You're comparing apples to oranges here and I can tell you that you deserved getting restricted after all that. I thought you didn't take the forums seriously. If anything, you wouldn't care at all if you were placed under restriction. I guess you're still a bit sour after your deserved restriction. But back on topic, there's no danger of government assistance or some leverage of dependency. That's a pathetic scare tactic. Do you honestly think that everyone on here actually lives off of the government? No. Other nations have much more efficient models (many which follows a hybrid capitalist-socialist structure) compared to the US, who tries incredibly hard to believe strict capitalism will save this country. That's a false statement in of itself. And on another note, rational conservatives do see a need for some level of government assistance, and yes..they label themselves as "small government" conservatives. Want to see your train of thought in the works, look at Colorado Springs or even Trenton to see how bloated the idea of "smaller government" truly is.
Like you are really concerned for your fellow citizens. Negro please. You and other liked minded individuals are only concerned with "self". Take that cornball fake concern somewhere else.
I agree that the system (tax payers) can't continue to support it, that it will eventually buckle (much like SS will for the future generation). And yes, the dependency does create docility (won't bit the hand that feeds them), but at this juncture, that horse has already left the barn. Only thing to change it is job creation.
Actually YES it was. But no worries, you got it made with the mods so keep posting tranny shit playa. And while I do think too many Americans are dependent on welfare/foodstamps, it doesnt mean I think the gov should stay out of our lives for good. Of course the gov has many good things to offer. All I'm saying is that too many motherfuckers in this country are dependent on our gov. Thats all
Oh here..I'm one of those narrow minded progressive leaning (lover) of these black savages on there forum. Let me handle this. "dear sir with your shitty ideas, As a majority member of this board..I would like to speak for the rest of my constituents and say your political leanings clearly suck ass. Get a life Many thanks, Me"
Careful. That could be seen as a personal attack by certain individuals. You're not allowed to say mean things about them but damned if they can't say whatever about you because they're of the superior intellectual, moral, ideological and financial high ground (or one day will be). And if you call them on it you're just too sensitive or hormonal with your inferior self......
Again, comparing my comment regarding your intellectual dishonesty on the food stamp matter (conservative talking point) is not the same as you pelting high schoolish, juvenile quips about someone. One isn't a personal attack, while the other is. So Iggy, never compare apples to oranges. I'm glad that you've addressed the fact that the government does play a crucial in our lives, as Americans. But I also see that you're completely ignorant of the matter as well. Again, it's not an attack on you. But an observation based on your statements. Yes, there are those who take advantage of the government for their personal well-being, but there are those who definitely need it, especially when it comes to greater living expenses. Food stamps is more of a subsidy and so is welfare. But what's the percentage of those who uses it out of necessity and then get out of it as oppose to those who stay on it for good? The ratio of the former is much higher and why? They see it as merely assistance. Also, smaller government so far hasn't really worked as well. If Trenton and Colorado Spring are any indicators of a model that has yet showed results, what makes you think that the nation can do without any form of government programs? The entire debate on big government vs. small government is ridiculous. Instead, why not take the "reasonable government" approach instead of using ridiculous ideological rhetoric?
You forgot one Ra-Ra...they also like to say you have low self-esteem...I guess it's because we're all just haters of their highly exalted status.
They aren't doing me any favors by coming here and slumming with my ignorant and incompetent black ass. How about you? Are they doing you any favors and motivating you to want to be as superior and perfect as they think they are?
I'd have to say the answer is no...they and their funky, pompous attitudes don't impress me. I much prefer the influence of my fellow lowly, humble, & REAL folks who actually bring something positive and meaningful to the table; who haven't been sheltered from real world experiences and have a solid understanding of life and people and respect for both.
Um...it was a joke. Like as in har har. I mean nothing for real by it. I was just highlighting the stupidity of targeting someone for their beliefs. Isn't it as stupid as targeting someone for their color? Even if you don't think like me that doesn't mean I think you're less than a person. I was raised knee deep in that shit. It's fucking pointless to see things that way.
Most of us here get that it's a joke, but certain people don't/wouldn't see it that way. Just as you pointed out it's stupid to target people for their beliefs, they may see it as their "right to expression and free speech" against a differing view point. And if you point out their ignorance to them you are in fact oppressing them and denying them their right to free speech here. Never mind that they probably have a Facebook account, a Twitter account, one or more personal blog spaces or sites that they probably post their opinions or viewpoints on varying topics and let's not forget the the half a dozen or more various different forums and websites that they possibly frequent and are members of besides this one that they express their opinions and viewpoints on also. But I guess that's how it is when you're an important person in your own mind ........
They spend the least because the majority of their income comes from capital gains taxes. They take a risk and invest their money into companies and if they earn a profit, they reap the rewards. Everyone would have that tax rate if they invested their money. I love how people want jobs, want more money, etc...but love to crucify the rich who created or invested in the companies they work for.
