Some of you are are missing the point. Bigger Govt is not a solution. It’s the problem. I’ve said all along the bailouts are wrong and most agree, yet many here are now calling for socialism everywhere else.
Do you really want the Government handling Healthcare, Banks, Housing or job creation? I’m dumbfounded by the things you guys say these days, and reminded of when Peter Schiff said the Govt can’t manage the post office, how can they manage banks?
Any job created by the Govt is funded by taxes, as is any social program. Everyone who works will pay more eventually if this happens.
I’m amazed at the shift in social issues I’ve seen on piggington. How so many of you made the shift from Ron Paul to Obama, and now support his socialist causes is beyond me.
qwerty007 – what’s the difference if by raising taxes Obama gives the benefits from that money to people who have done nothing to work for it?
More handouts for the lazy, and let’s be clear – poor is NOT necessarily lazy. Poor is primarily hard on luck. Lazy is living on welfare b/c it’s easier than getting a job. Now you want more publicly subsidized programs for these people?
Unless that’s the goal you all have in mind, then you really ought to think past the Obamanation propaganda you’ve so easily subscribed to.
