(That was a joke) It's too bad most people only educate themselves with information they get from the T.V. I guarantee you - that waiter has no idea what voting for Obama actually means! Just for fun - go visit the black republicans website.

Both will cause me grief.

But thanks for the mini lesson anyway. <BR/><BR/>A few things I thought were funny...<BR/><BR/>* I can't figure out why I felt the need to argue about this with a total stranger. The internet causes strange things...<BR/><BR/>* I think you think I'm voting Obama<BR/><BR/>* I guess I made a bad choice when I chose to be a teacher and therefore chose to be in the low middle class. I guess my hard work isn't as important as others. Good thing I married up. :)<BR/><BR/>* Happy Halloween!Skankstashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08110736794258658554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7617735532757054902.post-23955141553703653272008-10-29T21:50:00.000-06:002008-10-29T21:50:00.000-06:00The definition of Robin Hood Economics is "taking ...The definition of Robin Hood Economics is "taking money from the rich and giving it to the poor" I think you would agree. Now, myself not being anywhere near the definition of "rich" can understand this as well as you can. There is nothing wrong with the rich giving poor money-but the governemnt or president should not be the one doing it. The tax cuts that are given to the "poor" are paid for by increasing the tax on the "wealthy". The government will collect the taxes somewhere. I guess I don't see what's so hard to understand. I never said anything about the middle class being lazy. Our current tax code is based on Robin Hood Economics as well. If I make $164,550 this year I am in the 33% Tax bracket. If I make $32,550, I pay 25%. The rich are subsidizing the poor's tax liability. My point is this...taxes are necessary and are a good thing. If I chose to be a plumber and enjoy my work and lifestyle at $35,000/year then enjoy life...If I chose rather to be a doctor and make $350,000, why does that make me more liable to pay taxes than the middle class? If you don't want to be middle class, then don't be.Kirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12029186564169706455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7617735532757054902.post-70629152874455207882008-10-29T17:13:00.000-06:002008-10-29T17:13:00.000-06:00I have a hard time understanding why you think tha...I have a hard time understanding why you think that Obama is the next Robin Hood. Giving tax breaks to the middle class and not the wealthy, is not stealing from the rich (or hardworking) and giving it to the poor ( or un-hardworking???) Maybe I dont understand your point because I am not rich, so therefore I couldn't be a hard worker????<BR/><BR/> :) (i love to argue)Skankstashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08110736794258658554noreply@blogger.com
