UH OH!

Tax revenue to hit record this year. So is spending 'the problem'?

Federal tax revenue is forecast to hit a record $2.7 trillion this year, according to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO
)

But we thought higher taxes were the solution!?

Re: Video Showing the Huge Gap Between Super Rich and Everyone Else Goes Viral



shutup asshat, we are the ones working our asses off, we are the ones who built a society that makes money, we are the workers shaping this earth, we deserve our payoff for everything we've done your a total asshat for saying something like, "I read the descrip and saw so and so so ima not watch it" learn to critical think you dont judge that kind of shit you judge the message.


Hey, I watched it. Just giving my opinion lol.


My same response here. It frightens me to see how personal things get in economic discussions. It's not a matter of your opponent's life and if you or she (or even you) don't understand the life of one in extreme poverty. Knowledge doesn't have to be experienced.

Anonymous: While it's true that the middle class is, mainly, the primary source of money for the the top class(es), "payoff" in retributive thought isn't the issue here, but rather, fixing the problems with such great divides between the top and the middle/lower ends.

This is the internet. Aren't we supposed to keep things civil? tounge


as a matter of fact you are correct the solution is fixing that curve! I never said that wasn't the solution and I think we need to fix that curve ASAP!

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 34814481


shill it is no excuse, you sound like a sick fruitcake to be saying something like that, you really think 1% of the population owning 80% of the nations wealth is really no big deal, and you think the 99% who get ass wipes from the 1% are the jealous type looking for excuses!??!? lmao what are the excuses!?!? it doesn't say anywhere to give free money away it simply says to higher the wages for EVERYONE WHO DOES WORK, SO THAT WORKING IS ACTUALLY A DECENT OPTION IN THIS SHIT ECONOMY, what don't you understand!?!? people like you will try to give this video a bad name and I won't stand it, you need to wake up! slap your self in the face son! your being blind as fuck!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28903961


I think it's funny how these shills keep saying just start a business! Pretty funny when you think that they are telling people who have been without funds or a job for 2-5 years, to just start a business.

LMAO They have been looking for a job just to buy food, yet these simple minded fucks think it's oh so easy for them just to work harder and start a business on NOTHING!

some of these people need some common sense!

Re: Video Showing the Huge Gap Between Super Rich and Everyone Else Goes Viral
That is one great video
It TRULY shows what it is all about and you know when the top 1% to top 20% they make the rules and make the rules that benefit themselves.
So you can bet they only care about themselves and ARE NOT THE JOB CREATORS.
They have bought off Congress,The Senate & The Supreme Court
To make sure they will always stay where they are and it will be the end of us all in the end.

shocked


I had no idea it was that bad, I wish there was a similar graph for the whole world.

Despite the economics rhetoric that claims it isn't possible to do it, I think the first step to rectifying this travesty
of slavery is to increase the hourly rate of workers.
 Quoting: K.Kool


then you get layoffs and price increases to cover the amount the employer has to pay now. more people will be unemployed and on welfare.

In 1976 the richest took home 9% of the national income. Today 24%.

Understand that they're not going to devise some workable solution to accommodate the nation.

This wealthy bracket would orchestrate the construction of a self-sustaining social environment while continuing to stave off the population by their harnessed government, legal system, law enforcement, and infrastructure.

Where it goes from there (in that scenario) is the unwritten chapter.

I would really reccomend everyone watch this to educate themselves.
 Quoting: awe 1008941


The gap grows because Obama is destroying the Middle Class.
Same thing happened in Argentina before it collapsed.

Blame the leaders....not the people with means.
 Quoting: Useless Cookie Eater


It took 30 years of "trickle down" economics that never trickled downward to the middle class as it was hyped to do when I watched it happen way back then. So you stupid Obama comment is way out of line. Obama did not set the policies that sent all our middle class jobs to China and India and Indonesia and whereverthefuckelse. And LOTS of people here on this site support that shit!

I am working for myself and do have my own business and again, I am making less than I was twenty years ago and I'm the CEO!
 Quoting: ParanoiaGirl


I met a guy who worked for Pfizer years ago....made $450,000+ a year. He was determined to start his own pharmaceutical company five years ago. He has struggled from the beginning...still is. Last time I talked with him, he had to sell his home and move in with his step-son.
 Quoting: nutmeg


Oh, that's so sad. I hate hearing stories like that! I honestly believe it can be done, or it least it could have been done a few years ago but it's different today. I hope he holds on and things turn around for him. It's hard when you're whole life and future are wrapped up in a business that you're trying to make work.
 Quoting: ParanoiaGirl


He was in his late 50's while trying to make it work. I would hear him on the phone asking his co-workers to hang on...that things would get better.
 Quoting: nutmeg


Oh, sadder yet. Did he quit or is he still fighting?

It is a strong start to the new year here and I hope 2012 will be remembered as the most amazingly bad year ever in our business history.

I have purposely lost touch. He was very embarrassed by his situation. When we were in touch, I told him he could move in with me....I tried my best. Last time I googled his name, it looked okay, but his website looked the same as when he was struggling.

Yeah, my friend, in the same industry as myself, just shut her doors and her website is still up and looks the same. She was in this business for almost 25 years!

I hope he found something new he is working on. A crushed soul is worse than a broke man.

I'm not surprised he was embarrassed but if he did fail, what he does with his failure is the real measurement of the man.
