    Swampy, you're so fucking delusional about how our system of government actually functions.. You're a goddamn walking psychotic teddy bear that screams out the failure of whatever homeschooling you had to properly teach you civics.
    You're just a fucking idiot. I wish I wittier, but "fucking idiot" serves the same purpose. No where did I even talk about how our system of govt. works.

    And Rhino, that's all you're going to get because those are the only people that reported it. Here's a mini synopsis. Before welfare reform, the more people on the rolls the more money the states got. With reform they were given a flat level of funding. The stimulus just changed it back to the old system.

    If you completely eliminate taxes on very low income families, the problem is that...THEY MAKE A LOW INCOME ALREADY! Taxes for them are relatively low anyway. Example:

    Someone that makes 30k a year pays around 4500 (15%) in income tax (in 2009). 4500 is a nice chunk of change but it isn't going to mean the difference between poverty and not. thats an additional $375 per month. This is hardly going to allow someone who makes 30k a year "wealthy." And thats not with a tax REDUCTION but rather with federal tax eliminated entirely.

    15% of not much is not fucking much. Lowering taxes on the lower class doesn't suddenly give them some kind of buying power and income that allows them wealth potential.

    You're assuming tax cuts are the sole solution argued by the GOP, or that the GOP thinks tax cuts is all that is needed to help the poor. This is not the case.

    Lol it won't make you wealthy in the sense of being a millionaire and buying yachts and buying a huge mansion no. But I know that it would certainly take away a lot of stress about money and make people live more comfortably. I know in my life an extra $4500 a year would allow me to go on vacation or buy myself some nice stuff or pay down my student loan faster or my mortgage faster both of which would ultimately free up even more disposable income to invest or save for the future. Either way that makes a larger difference than you would think.

    So. You have nothing to back it up Just like the hospitals that are dropping Medicare/aid coverage in SC or NC thing awhile back. Gotcha

    I can back it up, you're just not going to accept it. And I don't know what you're talking about there.

    LOL

    poor people can go on vacations now how short sided of me.

    you're assuming a family of 6 has student loans or OWN A FUCKING HOME ON 30k A YEAR.

    It might help someone move from their parents basement under the age of 35 but start and support a family you can not.

    No. That's not what I'm saying.

    Although I believe it was a republican that wanted to pay for black women to get their tubes tied for $1000

    Have you done research on the district he's from? he's from the most conservative district in LA.

    and it has nothing to do with the topic just something I thought I bring up considering you brought up poor people should wait to have families.

    Exactly. The GOP doesn't give a fuck about helping the poor at all.

    Right, because the GOP doesn't believe in stealing from one person and giving to another means they don't believe in helping the poor. Eventually Dem's are going to run out of other people's money.

    Thievery is not the only way to help people. Look what happens when the govt. shaves 4k off the price of cars. Sales went through the roof. Now imagine if 4k worth of govt. mandates could be eliminated off of cars. How many jobs would that provide for the poor? Then we wouldn't have one person working involuntarily for the benefit of another.

    Liberals mistake doing something for caring. How many studies are there that show conservatives give more to charity than liberals? Liberals believe in spending your money, conservatives believe in spending their own.

    Take the tax breaks out of charity and lets see if those numbers stay consistent.

    that the best you got swampy?
