Hmmmm, more clueless drivel? You be the judge:



<< If you where rich and in the top 1%,you wouldn't be reading this now,would you.? NO! You would be doing anything but hanging out in AnandTech OT Forums. >>



Since when did ATF become a poor boy's only club? According to bleeding hearts the world over (while not in the &quot;top 1%&quot;) I'm the &quot;piss-ant greedy rich pencil-neck b4stard&quot; who's obviously too bored with the opera and country club and decided to come to ATF and see what the little people are up to these days. It appears that me and my buddies down at the club need to insure that our 2nd ammendment rights aren't violated else you baseball bat toting grease monkeys try to start a class war, invade my compound and take my hi-fi.





<< Pay off the national debt you fat cats, and then we'll talk about tax cuts. >>



I didn't create the national debt, why should I have to pay it all by my lonesome?



<< But don't bankrupt my grandchildrens chances for the american dream. >>



Bwwwaaahahahaha. Why would you want your grandchildren to realize the american dream you so loath? I can see it all now, your grandkid graduates from college with a degree in economics and you cut him out of the your will because he's grown up to become everything you hate. Heh heh, go figure.


Triplesnot, while your hate filled speech is humorous to those that have a working fontal lobe, it scares the kiddies. Maybe a hate crime bill aimed at protecting the rich is in order, eh?

First off, IMO we should pay off the national deficit completely before we have a taxcut at all. Then we should listen to TripleShot piss and moan about how rich people dont deserve what they have.

Never saw that thread AFAIK. I've expounded on Libertarians in the past: Great idea, party overrun by stoners looking to legalize their high and nothing more.

-So I get 5 units of benefit from the government, and I make $100,000
-The other guy gets 5 units of benefit from the government, he makes $25,000

I should have to pay MORE for the same benefits? Sounds like the Government is taking a page from amazon.com's pricing guide.


Actually if everyone is to shoulder an equal part of the burden of government, you have to pay in proportion to how much you earn. Percentage-wise, if you include all fees and fixed costs, you would be paying the same percentage of your total income toward the government, and that's fair to me.


Tripleshot, others: I keep hearing this 1% bullcrap thrown around every other sentence, but I calculated that according to Shrub's plan, I stand to gain around $4000, and I am NOT in the top 1% wealth group in the country. I don't believe either of the candidates will give me my money back in the long run, they just intend to use it for different agendas..... so I'll take any cash I can get!
