I sure hope Mitt's plan is to cut the entitlements for the slothful. The rich are the only citizens footing the bill for this monstrosity. It is impossible to reduce the burden of government for those who don't contribute anything.

and what has the venerable obama given? what has the mormon church done with that money? how many folks are better off for his donation? obama sends billions to the solyndras of the world...he sends billions and billions to big (failing, he knew theyd fail) business. romney donated 20 mil to the church...obama sends BILLIONS to (knows there gonna) failed business (for some strange "reasons")...
so i charge you, love!! who is for the little man?? who understands you?? who gave 20 million to poor church goers and who sends BILLIONS to BIG BUSINESS??
I agree with you, romney is a toolbelt. the guy is a real smarm-cake and ur prolly right about him in many of the negative lights in which u cast him. however, defenistrating the individual and circumstances (which i am ever loathe to do, but it works here), i would urge you to reconsider your take on the facts before you. who is really for the BIG folk...

You can check Obama's tax returns for his charitable donations based upon his income yearly since his tax returns go back years compared to Romney who apparently has something to hide. Then look at what Romney plans to cut if president and it will be obvious who supports who.

it seems counterintuitive to stop people's ENTITLEMENTS, the FREEBIES, but the point that fostering healthy business environs directly correlates to job production and the furtherance of opportunity. we as a nation are FAR too caught up in "who gave what, who is "for" which freebie, lets see tax returns" than the REAL issues, the REAL logics.
the REAL arguments should be BIG PICTURE, policy v policy, not the latest "google trending" or fox news Alert....forget an INDIVIDUAL, lets talk BIG PICTURE..what works, what doesnt.

Love the liberals and trying to scare those whom take from the government pie.

Here is a great explanation I heard the other day that may just open your eyes.

I private business owner makes one million dollars a year and his business has 4000 employees making $50K to $75K.

The math would tell you that his employees in a whole pay more taxes than he/she.

If you believe the Liberal model of business, this business owner should pay more federal taxes, but if you really listen to Romney's plan.

If Obama's taxation of the upper 2% (which by the way is anyone making a combine Family income of $250,000). It would raise only an additional 1 billion dollars.

What Romney is proposing is cutting from those whom should not be receiving federal aid such as illegals.

More numbers from the Obama plan has over 300 billion going to illegal alien health care, public school, and financial aids.

That's it right people, Obama want to increase taxes on the upper 2% to raise more federal tax income, yet he is going to give to those who are here illegally 300 times the monies his increase would create.

All Romney wants to do it not make it better to live here in the US as a illegal alien by giving away the bank.

Think about just how many people could be helped if you did not pay out al...

Think about just how many people could be helped if you did not pay out all that money to support illegal aliens. To those who receive a welfare check, they could give you a 300 percent increase of income. To help with the math, if you receive $1000 dollars they could give you a check for $4000 dollars. Now I am not saying that Romeny is proposing shifting the money for the illegal to the legal welfare system. But we would not be where we are today if we stopped giving away money to those who should not be here.

warren buffet only mentioned his single secretary
romney a guy that hides millions in the cayman island to avoid paying taxes does not merit trust
and is a lot cheaper to give to the illegal than to give to wall street.

lets say he pays all of them together, as a SUM, there are, lets say, 100 of them, and he pays the 100,000 per. thats 10,000,000. hell lets say he pays 1000 people 100,000per, thats what, a hundren million? yup. lets say that as a block, they all pay roughly 25 percent..somebody do that math. lets say dude is worth 2 billion, and pays 15 percent. which number, once the math is completed, is biggest. who pays more?
another math question for you to ponder...lets say "rich guy" paid 30 percent like the "neolibs" (stop the offensive speach like this, guys) want...ho many of those 1000 people would he have to fire?

Try again, Obama voted for the bail out and actually Bush warned both houses that is was not a good idea. Now as for Ford not taking a bail out, that is simply not the true. Under Obama Ford, Toyota and Honda all received almost the same amount that GM received. Not to mention that Obama not only vote pro tarp, but he signed it in to effect while president.

Now let's go back to high school government, who does things move through on government. Let see, Congress investigated a possible bailout of the auto industry, they passed it to the Senate. Now yes Bush could have vetoed the bail out. It was a bad move in his part, but he nor his adminstrtion came up with the bail out. Remember both houses were Democrat controlled.

still he could vetoed but in his 8 years in the white house he did not vetoed one spending bill and he did bail out the auto industry and he encouraged the homeownership of minorities check this video out of the horses mouth bailing the auto industry with 17 billion

Toyota and Honda both went to the Japanese government for a bailout. Their own government said sink or swim. Just last month Obama gave Toyota another 56 billion dollars. No Senate or Congress, just his administration.

something seriously wrong with your figures there. If he is only making a million on 4000 workers at even 50k is(which is 200 million in wages), he needs a much better acountant.

We are not talking profit, we are talking his own wage.

Nestofa... to ElliPonto 2012/04/27 19:21:40

LMAO If he is talking less than .5% of his profit, he REALLY needs a better accountant.
Please dont try to tell me otherwise.There is WAY to much evidence otherwise to make it laughable

reply
ElliPonto to Nestofa... 2012/04/27 20:01:03

It is an example to what government thinks rich is. Now before you laugh to hard, do you really think that a CEO or owner in a business would not take less than .5% as his wage. Now before you answer, Bill Gates received a salvary from Microsoft of $1. Warren Buffet and his empire pays himself $15 in a yearly salavery. Rupert Murdock the media mugel pays himself 1 euro. Each of these people live 100% on capital gains. So if you read this example, this would be a owner whom beleives he is worth his salavery.

You see a better accountant or CPA would have decreased his pay and have him live off the business. You know the way the Steve Jobs did. Everything owned by Apple and paid by Apple.

The top one percent pay 75% of the US government spending budget. Maybe under Obama that would be only a month, but under any other president that would pay for 9 months.

That is obviously his plan, but the RWNJ refuse to believe what Mitt Romney has already told them are his plans. Of course, he, himself will benefit greatly from what he plans to do with this Country's economy, while at the same time everyone else will suffer greatly.
