Shoulda said...

"I do think, at a certain point, you have paid enough in taxes."

Then again maybe the President is asking companies to make less money, fire more workers and pay less to the Treasury.

Probably not. Then again, the man is an economic dunce.

SWAT called on TEA Party - lol

Thanks Gateway Pundit, thats a real public service you are doing, showing this to the public.

Yes, be afraid of these people. They are just oh so dangerous.

Raise Their Taxes!

With Public Employee Unions rallying in states like Illinois and California demanding an end to budget cuts and chanting "Raise My Taxes!", they have a good point.

We should raise taxes on all government employees. That is a very fine idea, I am glad the idiots in Illinois gave me the idea.

I think a 5%.... no 7%... no an even 10% tax on all of the income of public employees would be a good start to balancing state budgets.

Red State Prattles on about Rick Perry

Dear Red State,

During your pathetic prattling on about Rick Perry "saying the right things" did it ever occur to you that saying the right things does not mean he is doing the right things?

Sure we may have no individual income tax but the state taxes on business was made far more complicated and applied more broadly under Rick Perry. As we know businesses will simply pass on the taxes and the cost of compliance on to their customers.

Rick Perry also pushed for the Trans Texas Corridor against the wishes of the people of the state. This was a white elephant "infrastructure" boondoggle that was suppose to be the NAFTA superhighway linking Canada, the US and Mexico.

Rick Perry also attempted to force every girl child in the state to take the Guardasil vaccine. HPV is a sexually transmitted disease and he wanted to mandate that all girls at around 12 recieve the shot. So I suppose Rick Perry is very libertarian on the age of consent for little girls or something.

Parents were outraged and the state legislature undid the order from the Governor.

Rick Perry is a very slick politician who can talk conservative but has he governed as a conservative? The people of Texas would tell you he is a moderate at best and a RINO at the worst of times.

NK Torpedo sunk South Korean ship, military says

South Korean military officials are now saying it was, indeed, a North Korean torpedo that hit and sank one of its ships a couple weeks ago. This is an overt act of war that almost requires a response from the South Korean government.

The South Korean government could very well collapse if it does not.

Mugabe to continue business takeovers

That will work as well as the farm invasions did.

I guess Robert Mugabe doesn't think there is enough poverty in Zimbabwe yet!

He wants every business to be majority black owned. Welcome to Zimbabwe, a one man, majority rule state.

Selling off America

After spending this country into massive debt, raising our taxes and making it impossible for American companies to create jobs it might come to mind to ask what more can this government do to harm our economy?

Do they really hate America that much?

Apparently now they want to give tax breaks to foreigners who want to buy up chunks of America. Isn't that special?

They are literally selling off this country.

More taxes?

Obama promised not to raise taxes on the middle class. He did, of course, with ObamaCare to the tune of billions. Now they are talking about passing another gasoline tax, 15 cents a gallon. This would be added to the 18+ cents a gallon that the federal government already collects from each gallon.

That is right, it would nearly double the federal gasoline tax.

Who raises taxes during a recession? What idiot, what numbskull, what freaking moron would even consider raising taxes during a recession?

Democrats and Lindsay Graham of course.

It gets worse. They are now talking about a VAT. A Value-Added Tax, the most insidious prosperity killing tax ever concieved in the mind of Dr. Evil! The League of Evil was even stunned by how terrible this tax is.

You can say goodbye to Dollar stores, no more 99 cent stores, no more impulse buys, no more going out and splurging with a few bucks. By the way a 10% VAT does not mean the price is 10% higher, it depends on how many stages of production there were. That is 10% added on at every stage.

This is an economy killer. Ask Europe, their economy has been moribund for decades.

Who knew?

Wow. I am stunned. Nobody could have predicted or even expect the number filing for unemployment benefits to increase for the second week in a row. This is so totally unexpected! Uexpectedly unexpected!

Lobbying Reform?

How about this for a lobbying reform:

If you recieve funds from the government in any way, shape or form you may no longer lobby the government or fund activist political organizations that lobby government or run ads that do the same.

Are you ready for pro-ethanol ads?

Unexpected-O's for breakfast, yuck!

Mikey likes it!

New Unemployment Claims rise to 460,000, more than expected.

More than expected by whom? They really need to find new "experts".

Glorious victory in California!

Today is a day of Grand Victory over capitalism with the shut down of the NUMMI plant, a blow to the evils of the private sector economy. More than 1,000 former wage slaves will now join the wonderous welfare class, a sign that we are winning!

To the rulers of the state of California, keep up the taxes that have driven 40,000 private sector employers from the state in a decade. Keep tightening the regulations that will squeeze every last private sector job out of the state, we shall be victorious!
