Those on the lower end see no incentive to move up because then they would have to pay taxes. It's inequality and at some point gouging the higher and middle class is going no where. By having only half of our population pay taxes while the other half pay nothing is getting us broke fast. So your logic is that the working poor don't WANT to "move up" the career ladder because they will have to pay some federal tax. So these people CHOOSE to be poor? To keep from paying federal tax? So the Walmart workers, hamburger flippers, secretaries, retail clerks say "Please no raise! I will have to pay federal tax." A family making minimum wage who currently pay payroll tax, sales tax, property tax, vehicle tax, pay nothing huh? But the solution to fixing our economy is for the federal government to take some more out of their take home pay. That extra something that probably goes to food, supplies, maybe a new appliance, or if they're really lucky a weekend trip out of town. Do you understand what that little extra they spend does? It creates jobs!!! It takes consumers to demand products and services to create jobs!! You see that little bit extra they keep, goes right back into the economy. Unlike the top percent who hoard their money, bouncing it from tax shelter to tax shelter, the lower half spends almost every dollar they make, not by choice, but out of survival. You ever notice how the economy booms when people get their refunds? Republican solution: take more from people who have nothing. Now how bout the elderly that have already paid their share of taxes, ungrateful, unmotivated freeloaders!

Here is how tax cuts could create jobs! Cut the taxes on the self employed who pay almost 30% in payroll tax alone. Then only offer businesses tax cuts based on the number of Americans they employ. Big corporations will get big tax cuts in relation to the percentage of their American worforce. For example if your workforce is 10% American your tax rate goes down 1%, 50% goes down 5%. That's of course just a simple math explanation but the point is, tax cuts that are intended to create jobs must be tied directly to the jobs they create.

Problem is, they don’t see it as an economic problem that needs to be corrected, they use it trying to insult and demean as did Mitt ‘the dick’ Romney! Now, if he could only be bothered to find the factual info on it, he would find that it is far more complicated than just a stupid wingnuz talking point! http://www2.tbo.com/news/politics/2012/sep/18... Shouldn't Romney and his party be happy about this? They are the ones pushing low or no taxes and small gov't ... that 47% is way ahead of them!

Breaking news...The DOJ cleared the DOJ and their agency leader Eric Holden of any wrongdoing in the Fast and Furious fiasco just in time for Obama's re-election! To summarize...another big F*CK YOU to the murdered Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry and his family. The first big eff you to the Terry family came when Pelosi and all the dems walked out when the other politicians on the Hill were attempting to get facts concerning the Fast and Furious fiasco. We have seen in the past just how well it works out when you allow people to police themselves. Somehow they come up out of that bucket of shit smelling like a rose even though they are still knee-deep in all kinds of shit. You people will fall for anything and you are living proof that Obama's decision to rely on your stupidity was the right path for him to take when his narcissistic legacy was taking the wrong path. Reel 'em back in Barry, reel those fish back in!

By having only half of our population pay taxes while the other half pay nothing is getting us broke fast. The point that most Repubs miss is just how much wealth the rich have. It is hard to imagine but this may help. The Richest 400 people in the US have more wealth than ALL the bottom 150,000,000 (that's 150 million) Americans COMBINED. Mitt Romney AFTER TAXES makes $57,000 PER DAY!!!!!!

So basically you are telling us that increasing taxes on those corporations and the rich people that run those corporations would be the wrong thing to do? Me thinks the Obama watchdogs/lapdogs will red flag your ass! Better be careful!!! lmao

But after a few weeks I got tired of it and gave back what was given. And the pure deception given by many republicans, it's just sad. The Muslim thing, the birther thing, and it goes on and on with distortion. No political party is perfect, and being a union man and working hard for what I have and my dad being a union man invthevearly days at General Electric in Louisville ky, I'm always going to be for the working man and woman. I'm not for the super rich getting catered to with big tax breaks for jobs and not getting the jobs in return. It doesn't work and they need to stop sucking money from the less fortunate. It's just as simple as that. I understand where you are coming from and who knows, maybe I will start name calling before it is all said and done. LOL I will tell you that my husband and I are both retired. He from Ford in Louisville and I retired from government. He was involved in unions since he started to work for Ford when he was 18 years old. His father worked for Ford, his mother, his brother, uncles, etc., etc. Hardcore democrat married to a hardcore republican. You can imagine this household over the years. LOL This is the first year of his life in which he will vote republican.

When an American is murdered by that operation then we will let the Bush crowd police themselves too, huh? Oh, no Border Agent was murdered and the republicans still shut down that operation? What? Wait...are we discussing those things of which democrats are not allowed to speak of? Facts? Uh huh! lol I am going to start grading you morons on your fast and furious attempts to FOCUS on something other than Obama's many failures and your attempt to DISTRACT people and blind them with your bullshit and DECEIVE the republic "enemy" at all costs.
