Obama: Americans voted for tax hikes on rich

LOL...anything the American people voted on didn't matter...the election was nothing more than another hoax perputated on the American citizens

Even if it is time for the American rich to pay more you'll never get such a bill through a Republican congress.

Shhhh dont bring that conspiracy stuff here!

..What happens when you run out of other people's money?...only in America can you own a car,cell phone,big screen TV, XBOX,have your kids fed 3 meals a day at school ...and be poor...BUT if you don't have a mansion, private jet..then it's not fair....if you look to Wash DC for your food,clothing shelter...you have what you deserve.

LOL big hoax

Mandate.. less the 25% of the registered votes, voted for him. What mandate??

I'm at ease with it now. I'm doing my part to derail the American economy. I've got all the "stuff" I need and a comfortable amount of disposable income. I have an income stream that is immune to the economy. I will sit on that money and watch as the economy implodes, inflation takes over and unemployment skyrockets. Eventually, the U.S.S.A. Will get tired of the misery and the communist party will be booted from the White House. When we become the U.S.A. again, I will start doing business with anyone. In the meantime, discretion will be applied to every penny spent to minimize anyone and anything affiliated with a liberal agenda.

^^^ This.

100% agree.

These Obamabot have NO IDEA what chain reaction they just started....but they will.....over the next couple years....and for a decade afterwards until they wake up to reality out of pure misery.

I feel very sorry for you. You are so selfish.

No Mandate. If you look closely at the returns on a state by state basis, it was very close in most of the states he won.

So he is not anywhere near a mandate in this election. If he were, the Dummy-crats would have gained a majority in the House of Reps.

He can tax the rich all he wants. However, even if he took 100% of all their money, he would not cut the spending and the earmarks and the hand-outs.

Keep in mind that approx. 48% of Americans paid no federal income tax last year. The whole government is being financed on the backs of 52% of us and no one even says thank you.

They are just saying Give us More!

Yup. Soon it's really gonna suck to be an entitlement promoting liberal democrap. It's kind of like biting the hand that feeds you. Eventually, you're gonna get cut off. It's funny because it takes the activity of money in this country to make it tick.

Get it? Guess who has the most power to control the activity of money?

BINGO!! The people with money.

Go ahead, keep bitching that you don't get enough.

Uh no - that would be international bankers and currency traders. It's not even YOUR money. It's the debt note, with interest attached, of a privately owned corporation.

Uh...yes. International bankers are not the consumers in the American economy. The elite few who are don't care about you anyways. American consumers that sit on their money will hurt the economy.

No. They'll just print more of it. You have as much power as a grasshopper.

People need to realize that even if that negroid taxes the rich 100% it will never come close to ever fixing our fiscal problems. It'd be like throwing a grape at a train.

This is where the line and dems are so blind. They have an infantile understanding of money and economy. Plus they just waged war on everyone WITH money. All we need to do to fucking hurt them is nothing. We just need to stop doing what we do and it all goes down the shitter over night. And that's what you're seeing now. The money makers saying fuck it.

It's gonna be a great show!

You guys are so thick that you can't understand the basic workings of economy. Some you really think we're talking about the actual physical money in the world. Christ, open an economics book and do some reading so you can comment with more of a mentality of a 10-year old.

Yeah..duh. The just gonna print more money and give you bags of it to go spend at Best Buy. It's pitiful that you actually believe that might happen.

For fucks sake, get a brain!

No, moron. But withholding your pitiful estate isn't enough to make a dent in the economy. Those with real money, will continue to spend as usual. You may band together with your friends and put a Walmart cashier or two out of a job. BFD.

Yep. Keep telling yourself that. You think it's just one person?
LOL.

Someone once said, "a government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take everything you have."

Blacks are now being replaced by Latinos. If blacks were honest with themselves they would see the truth. But they all will be imprisoned in the Democrats plantation. How cheap they sell their minds, bodies and souls. And the Arabs win again.

No, I'm sure there are plenty of imbeciles like you. However, it won't make a difference whether you choose to spend or not. The economy is in [a managed] collapse and has been for decades. But you idiots think you control it.

and the rich happen to be themselves congress, the prez and their friends the bankers and wall streeters... do you think that they are that dumb for not to place plenty of loopholes ( big enough for a herd of elephants to go thru ) to protect themselves from paying higher taxes...it's all a game and the fine print will be the middle-class who will end up paying higher taxes, not them.

The headline is pretty clear: rich

Oama is calling on lawmakers to extend tax cuts for the middle class (those earning less than $250k per year) and lower class (under $50k per year).

He won't have to, he'll just let them expire, done.

Agree! Why are they calling it a mandate? It's barely even a win and they didn't count the military vote and there are other irregularities.

I guess Valarie Jarrett told Obama to call it a mandate and no one will notice.

The people obama proposed to tax won't run out of money. Ever.

Rich aren't going to give up what they have. The only thing they're going to do is charge more for what the working class needs.

The working (middle) class is the class going to get hit the most out of all this! Poor will be given more, rich will take more, and the middle class is screwed

Don't bet on that.

I believe the Repug's should give O exactly what he wants ... tax those over 250k and see what happens over the next two years.

This is not the Clinton economy, where they had GROWTH and could get away with raising the tax rates. Nothing that O has done up to now spurred growth, except the printing of money. It has done the exact opposite. And no the Stock Market is not the economy. (Though I did make money over the past few years)

I believe in two years the Repug's will have both houses of congress because by then it will hit home to everyone that O's plans will not work. Unemployment will be higher, the GDP will still be where it is now, the deficits will continue to be over 1 trillion, inflation will cause daily items to cost much more than today, salaries will stagnate, electricity will cost much more due to coal, the price of gasoline is now at its low point of his second term, and the list goes on ...

I believe this is called deep-recession and stagflation ... next comes collapse.

Yeah the rich- those making over 35000 a year with health insurance

Its only fair that the rich pay taxes too. The more you make the more your taxed. Thats the way it use to be before Bush got into office.
