Booster4324

He said federal taxes. There is social security (now called an entitlement with a horrible ROI), gas, payroll taxes etc. Those are all federal taxes and there are more. He used to say, "Words mean something." What did his post imply?

Please, that is a generic bs far right wing talking point. You are better than that.

You do not understand that he is saying federal tax and he really means federal income tax. Remind me not to invest with you.

Well with that hypothetical what I would do if I was in a population dense area that had many welfare/unemployment/medicaid beneficiaries is I would set up a brand new system. This is assuming I have total control of course. EBT cards/food stamps/wick/whatever can no longer be redeemed at grocery stores/convenience stores etc. There are too many loopholes and too much inefficiency. Only at these central food stores can they be purchased with whatever benefits they have. Sounds Communist, so you should probably get all excited at this point Ocin. I would set up a series of centers that were fairly geographically convenient in this hypothetical urban sprawl. Only, I would pay a corporation to do it and accept different bids from different companies to try the idea. So I probably just fired 80% of my hypothetical employees. I will keep the 10% that genuinely care and the 10% that are competent. Hopefully there is some overlap there. They (corporations who are interested) all have to submit their proposals for their facility's, but I want something like this (link) at every facility. The center will distribute basic needs (food/replace wick) that the beneficiaries received before, only their choices will be very restricted. I would set up a fair amount of basically neighborhood markets and then a few larger centers that basically were that and a minor med as well. The fruits and vegetables from the link above, some other fruits and vegetables that were seasonally regional shipped in from farms, lean meats, beans, rice ie. a healthy diet would be available. Nothing else, as their would be no chips, candy bars (chocolate can be healthy as are nuts etc so mileage varies) etc. So how did I do?

Why are you bringing up this false argument again? That is 0% Federal income tax. Plenty of taxes are paid by the bottom 50% that are either Federal, State, County/Parrish/whatever, City, and/or non-existent dogcatcher tax. Okay i made the last one up, maybe... Fed mixes up their taxes by redistributing it to the states. States mix up their taxes by redistributing it to the County/Parrish/whatever, City, and/or non-existent dogcatcher tax. Point me to a chart with total taxation by income level. It is not going to look anything like your picture.

Well, we will see. I am hardly looking forward to Romney. I would prefer Cain of the two, as I don't see Romney cutting spending much.

Christie to Endorse Romney Ahead of GOP Debate Well, that should give Romney a nice bounce in the polls.

Link Last year was 4.7% of GDP.

Yeah I messed that up, misread the chart (shouldn't try posting at work). Still blacks are only 10% of the population and are way over represented as a percentage of the population in the prison. The question is why?

There are twelve times more blacks than whites in their prisons. A far higher rate than say in Mississippi.

Oh, I missed the talking, thanks.

What did she say? I got a bit distracted.

I found evidence of another Booster4324 on the internet today. Crazy coincidence and I feel for the poor bastard as he is stuck with my reputation and all.

Yeah and all your posts have been gems.

It was worth a shot to mess with him if nothing else.

Nah, I give. Clearly, most, if not all feel he should be allowed to post. Oh and 3rdnlng it is hard to engage him in debate when all he does is post news articles and never really posts his thoughts on them. However, it is clear he is a racially motivated poster.

To address both you and Dev, I am willing to blame the government. My point is you always want to blame the homeowners. Edit-Yet again totally comfortable in my position.

I generally agree that is a bad policy. I cannot stand that about liberals. However, dave has been called out and basically acknowledes he is a racist. Let me put it this way, you have parties at your house and there is a guy in the KKK that comes over. You find out he is a member of the KKK. Are you going to invite him to the next party? Edit-totally comfortable in my position.

Umm you usually say **** about how people took out mortgages they couldn't pay off. Which is a fair enough statement, but is facile and ignores the much huger and more !@#$ed up bit of banks bundling what they knew was bad debt and selling the ****. That is what got us where we are.

Fine. So I can throw this rule, "Personal "crusades" (posting the same information/opinion in an excessively repetitive manner. We want posters to share opinions not bludgeon others to death with them.)" out the window then? It no longer applies? If so, that is cool. Dave is an ass and I get where you guys are coming from. I think my position of asking him to be banned is fair though. He is a dickweed who wouldn't have the balls to man up and say that sort of **** in my face. There is a reason I feel this way, but I won't digress. I am still comfortable in my position. He is breaking the rule and should be banned. It really is that simple.

Your support for a racist makes you look good? I am hardly the first to say this about him. I may be the first that calls for a ban. I am good with my position, you?

Blacks are bad huh? Try posting something else you !@#$ing putz.

Umm anonymously reporting him is wimpy if you ask me. I am being open about calling him out. What is there to debate? He rarely brings up anything other than blacks are bad. Are you serious that I should debate that point? So I post constantly about him? All my posts are about Dave. That is really the point you want to use?

Care to address my last post to you? You know, where you called me out?

Well several things. I am not the only one to call him racist. You are the one defending him, so one assumes you support his views. He is WBF at a guess, who was banned for his racist posts. He is a one note poster which is the definition of a crusade. Most of us consider him a racist, you are in the minority here. Multiple posters have called him out on this and yet he continues to post similar things. I am glad you are expressing your true feelings though. Good to know how you feel.
