Surprised? Come on man, only a fool would be surprised by this as we're going to be on a rollercoaster for a long time. The powers that be will make millions on this volatility, and I'm not convinced this isn't all the desired effect right now. The S & P decision is comical to say the least, looking at it's past and it's role in how we got here, and I'm sure haven't been expecting this for a while.

Im not arguing that at all

Im just saying that the fundamentals arent there. Theres some crazy shit going on when last night around 9pm the Futures were down almost 300 pts. Asian mkts dived btwn 5-7% This morning futures up over 100 theres a strong opening, then it nosedives 300 pts only to finish off 400+ pts.

If anyone who considers themselves rational can argue that this man has done a good job or even hinted at leadership in any capacity, I'd be interested in hearing from them.
Blaming your missteps that have clearly resulted in a downed economy on your predecessor is not the answer. Nor is running a campaign and presidency on the notion of, 'Hope.'
'HOPE,' never has and never will be a strategy for anything.
If you pass health care legislation (without reading it) we cant pay for, bail out banks, bail out auto manufacturers, start an illegal war (Libya), continue 2 wars you once spoke out about, fund ridiculous programs that NEVER run according to plan (example- cash for clunkers), pass a stimulus plan that was a massive bust, Omnibus (porkulos), have yet to pass a budget and spend more than you make and wonder why our credit rating comes into question, all the while offering no plan of your own to solve the matter, I think we all have questions to ask. Seriously, where the hell is this man? He hides and attends fund raisers and plays more golf than any President in history...And this is coming from someone who isn't even a Republican!!!
I'm not the biggest Bush fan in the world but when I used to hear the likes of Blinky Pelosi, Reid and our current President (whom I refer to as, 'He who shall not be named') say things like, "...Failed economic policy," I laughed because there was never any substance behind the accusation. I never once heard any of them list what those failed policies were---never once. All I heard was, "...failed economic policies."
We are on borrowed time as a species if anyone thinks Obama is the answer to the problems in America.
STEP TO THE SIDE, He Who Shall Not Be Named!!!! Your reign of incompetence is over.

Term limits at ever level of government...
Requirements on reading and understanding every piece of legislation that is to be passed...
Requirements of taking part in every aspect of legislation that is passed rather than just requiring the voting base to do so...
Requirements of working with a budget every year...

Those are 4 easy steps to solving this. If I spent more than I make, I would be living under a bridge. If my company operated without a budget, we would not be a company. If I could vote myself a raise and require those that work for me to do things I myself would not be willing to take part in, I would not be the boss. If I blindly signed laws then made statements like,"...we have to read it to find out what's in it..." - I would not be successful. If I waited for handouts, bailouts and someone else to take care of me, I would not be able to look at myself.

I just don't get the appeal I guess, at all. She was an average writer who pretty much started her own cult despite being against religion overall. She was so self-absorbed (I guess part of Objectivism itself), she once called herself the most creative thinker alive. She was full of contradictions on force, wars and reason being very selective in application (see opinion on the Arab-Israeli war).

Nobody said you have to like the book or her, and I personally have absolutely no interest in your feelings on it. Let's be clear, you're getting this response because you decided to say TeeBone and I were 'blowing each other' because his sig made me think of a sweet memory in my life and god forbid I felt "Hey, this is a nice thing, I'll post it."

I'll also answer your question: Yes I've read Atlas Shrugged as well as the rest of her work many times. I own (thanks to a very generous wedding gift) a first printing of Atlas Shrugged that is among my most prized possessions. I have the word "ego" tattooed on my chest. I have bought an entire middle school class a copy of Anthem on several occasions. No, I still don't care what you feel about it.

I enjoy her work because I like her writing and her philosophy. I enjoy the Jon Galt character because (to steal a phrase from Rand "He depicts man as he should be"). I do agree with the majority of her philosophy but not all of it. I have never seen anything resembling a cult in those I know who enjoy her work, in fact the philosophy is diametrically opposed to the idea of a cult, anyone who blindly follows what Rand said because she said it completely missed the concept of what they're following.

I do not believe she is perfect in any way shape or form. Yes, I know about the Collective and her personal life, I don't care.

Hell, one would think those I like the most here are my enemies bc we go back and fro so often. Just go read anything PB, DS, keithy or I talk about!

I've read of your Galt accessories in the c-links thread and other spots where you get into your libertarian leanings. Truthfully I posted my response as I did mainly bc TeeBone's original post "President Duhhhh" being completely out of touch. Tie in his affiliation with their battle cry at times being completely misused, even in the eyes of Rand herself before she died, and the combo just seems ridiculous.

Love the breakdown on you interests and you shouldn't care if I like her works. It's personal preference, one I just believe a certain poster latched on to via another means.

To be fair, while I don't think TeeBone fits this description at all, I do think that there are a ton of jackass tea party members who identify as "Objectivists" that have no idea what they're talking about and are using the concept of a selfish life to cover the fact that they are utterly selfless (in Rand speak "a monstrous reversal")... they live with a chronic need to have others THINK that they're greater than they are... never realizing that being truly selfish is more akin to Buddha than it is to to Enron. You're right that Rand contradicted herself on quite a few subjects, particularly near the end of her life, but the definition of selfish, and by extension the basis of her moral premise is crystal clear and very consistent. "I swear, by my life and my love of it, that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine." doesn't exactly imply "I'm going to do what's best for me and i'll fuck over anyone who gets in my way." I understand those who disagree with the philosophy painting it in the Enron light, but I fail to see how anyone who claims to agree with it painting it that way.

from the article

Why does nobody listen to this man???

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/08/15/opinion/stop-coddling-the-super-rich.html?_r=2

Warren Buffett

OUR leaders have asked for “shared sacrifice.” But when they did the asking, they spared me. I checked with my mega-rich friends to learn what pain they were expecting. They, too, were left untouched.

While the poor and middle class fight for us in Afghanistan, and while most Americans struggle to make ends meet, we mega-rich continue to get our extraordinary tax breaks. Some of us are investment managers who earn billions from our daily labors but are allowed to classify our income as “carried interest,” thereby getting a bargain 15 percent tax rate. Others own stock index futures for 10 minutes and have 60 percent of their gain taxed at 15 percent, as if they’d been long-term investors.

These and other blessings are showered upon us by legislators in Washington who feel compelled to protect us, much as if we were spotted owls or some other endangered species. It’s nice to have friends in high places.

Last year my federal tax bill — the income tax I paid, as well as payroll taxes paid by me and on my behalf — was $6,938,744. That sounds like a lot of money. But what I paid was only 17.4 percent of my taxable income — and that’s actually a lower percentage than was paid by any of the other 20 people in our office. Their tax burdens ranged from 33 percent to 41 percent and averaged 36 percent.

If you make money with money, as some of my super-rich friends do, your percentage may be a bit lower than mine. But if you earn money from a job, your percentage will surely exceed mine — most likely by a lot.

To understand why, you need to examine the sources of government revenue. Last year about 80 percent of these revenues came from personal income taxes and payroll taxes. The mega-rich pay income taxes at a rate of 15 percent on most of their earnings but pay practically nothing in payroll taxes. It’s a different story for the middle class: typically, they fall into the 15 percent and 25 percent income tax brackets, and then are hit with heavy payroll taxes to boot.

Back in the 1980s and 1990s, tax rates for the rich were far higher, and my percentage rate was in the middle of the pack. According to a theory I sometimes hear, I should have thrown a fit and refused to invest because of the elevated tax rates on capital gains and dividends.

I didn’t refuse, nor did others. I have worked with investors for 60 years and I have yet to see anyone — not even when capital gains rates were 39.9 percent in 1976-77 — shy away from a sensible investment because of the tax rate on the potential gain. People invest to make money, and potential taxes have never scared them off. And to those who argue that higher rates hurt job creation, I would note that a net of nearly 40 million jobs were added between 1980 and 2000. You know what’s happened since then: lower tax rates and far lower job creation.

Since 1992, the I.R.S. has compiled data from the returns of the 400 Americans reporting the largest income. In 1992, the top 400 had aggregate taxable income of $16.9 billion and paid federal taxes of 29.2 percent on that sum. In 2008, the aggregate income of the highest 400 had soared to $90.9 billion — a staggering $227.4 million on average — but the rate paid had fallen to 21.5 percent.

The taxes I refer to here include only federal income tax, but you can be sure that any payroll tax for the 400 was inconsequential compared to income. In fact, 88 of the 400 in 2008 reported no wages at all, though every one of them reported capital gains. Some of my brethren may shun work but they all like to invest. (I can relate to that.)

I know well many of the mega-rich and, by and large, they are very decent people. They love America and appreciate the opportunity this country has given them. Many have joined the Giving Pledge, promising to give most of their wealth to philanthropy. Most wouldn’t mind being told to pay more in taxes as well, particularly when so many of their fellow citizens are truly suffering.

Twelve members of Congress will soon take on the crucial job of rearranging our country’s finances. They’ve been instructed to devise a plan that reduces the 10-year deficit by at least $1.5 trillion. It’s vital, however, that they achieve far more than that. Americans are rapidly losing faith in the ability of Congress to deal with our country’s fiscal problems. Only action that is immediate, real and very substantial will prevent that doubt from morphing into hopelessness. That feeling can create its own reality.

Job one for the 12 is to pare down some future promises that even a rich America can’t fulfill. Big money must be saved here. The 12 should then turn to the issue of revenues. I would leave rates for 99.7 percent of taxpayers unchanged and continue the current 2-percentage-point reduction in the employee contribution to the payroll tax. This cut helps the poor and the middle class, who need every break they can get.

But for those making more than $1 million — there were 236,883 such households in 2009 — I would raise rates immediately on taxable income in excess of $1 million, including, of course, dividends and capital gains. And for those who make $10 million or more — there were 8,274 in 2009 — I would suggest an additional increase in rate.

My friends and I have been coddled long enough by a billionaire-friendly Congress. It’s time for our government to get serious about shared sacrifice.

I know that a civilized country has got to take care of those that can't take care of themselves but welfare for the non-elderly and non-infirm has got be addressed.

I mean there are people I know that continue to have kids despite not working and getting gov't aid. They then have all the free time and apparently money to have extracurricular activities and buy all kinds of gadgets.

What's crazy is despite the impression that it's all minorities the people I know personally that are running that scam are white. Granted they are complete white trash but they are white.

Every time I see the wife post on Facebook that she's going to play softball or that she's going drinking I want to puke.

But to the point something is wrong w/ a system that allows able bodied people to take money and not work for it while also limiting unemployment benefits to those who have worked their whole lives.

So taxing the rich isn't the only thing that should be considered.

It was just a dream. 2008 saw this wide eyed rockstar full of ambition, many in the media gushing over him, an uninformed electorate voting with their emotions, believing that the man would solve their problems.

We got a president in over his head, someone who believes that Keynesian economics could get the country out of the economic malaise. We instead got net job losses, higher unemployment, a dollar that is weakened, a continued losing effort in Afghanistan. An illegal war started in Libya, An unpopular new entitlement program. Amnesty for 200K illegal aliens including his drunk uncle. Consumer confidence in the shitter and an overall negative outlook.

While they don't pay income tax they do pay social security tax and sales tax. And since social security tax is only applied to the first $100,00 or so, a person who makes $50,000 is paying a higher percentage to social security tax than someone making $500,000.

Proving my point Illegals might pay taxes but they are not tax payers

http://washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/op-eds/2011/09/how-stop-child-tax-credit-fraud-illegal-immigrants



"Because this credit is refundable, parents who owe no taxes can receive cash back from the government for their children through the tax code. Because the credit has been expanded over the years to help people make ends meet in the recession, the number of people claiming the credit has skyrocketed.

Defying common sense, this refundable tax credit can be provided to an illegal immigrant as long as the immigrant is able to obtain an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number from the Internal Revenue Service.

The new report shows that in 2010, the government's award of $4.2 billion through the credit to illegal immigrants was up from $924 million in 2005. In 2010, illegal immigrants received about 15 percent of the total $28.3 billion awarded through child tax credits. That's just wrong".

Another question, how many people do we have in prison right now?

The best I could find is this from wiki bc I'm lazy.

In total, 7,225,800 adults were under correctional supervision (probation, parole, jail, or prison) in 2009 — about 3.1% of adults in the U.S. resident population

Add to this children and those in school not working and there are quite a few US citizens who truly have a reason for NOT paying taxes.

Let's not forget those retired and elderly out there paying nothing living off their ss and pensions.

Now add those who are below the poverty line and working for min wage which still hasn't been raised while everything else around us does drastically, as in 12 to cross a FUCKING BRIDGE ONCE.

I know this is no groundbreaking synopsis on who pays taxes, but it just shows why a large percentage of americans aren't, and shouldn't have to pay taxes.

This is not the issue, just as teachers, cops and unions are not the reason states are in the red for years now, much less the national government.

As far as the 47% who pay zero in federal income tax, do they breathe different air than everyone else? They benefit from the EPA. Their food is inspected by the USDA and their drugs are inspected by the FDA. Their savings are insured by FDIC and they enjoy being protected by the military. They should pay too.

So your thesis on the financial background of the entire military is based on speculation about the one unit you belonged to? I'm quite sure the majority of the military, especially those at the lower levels almost always is filled by a majority of kids from poor families and those in the lower middle class. The good proportion of the rest are usually people who used the military to help pay for college, or fell into it bc they couldn't find the work they needed after leaving it. It's not everyone, nobody is stating that, but with no draft the divide only grows in each new war or conflict.

Their food is inspected by the USDA and their drugs are inspected by the FDA. Their savings are insured by FDIC and they enjoy being protected by the military. They should pay too. If the rich need to pitch in more, the poor should contribute some.

Taxs are (generally) proportional to the resources that the person in question draws upon. A person making next to nothing is drawing on minimal resources from the welfare state whereas a rich person draws on more resources from the welfare state. The poor benefit from the EPA, but they're not the ones with coal-fired power plants or paper recycling facilities that cause environmental damage. Their food is inspected by the USDA, but they're eating lower quality meat that has less stringent regulations. The drugs they use are, again, lower quality/generic that require less stringent regulations. That is assuming they can afford the drugs at all. Their savings, if they exist, are minimal and don't require the same amount of capital to be insured. The military protects them but they have no amount of wealth that requires protecting -- their land and holdings are minimal and if there was a sudden regime change their lot in life wouldn't be all that different.

The amount of money people pay in taxes (should) directly correlate to what they require. That is why you, me and everyone else here (should) pay significantly less than the Koch brothers. To borrow a term that may kill my argument due to prejudice -- the the same way carbon footprints work, there's a monetary footprint. Their footprint is larger than all of ours combined. Larger than a huge swath of the population combined. That is why they're obligated to pay more -- they use more resources than many, many other people combined.

Remember that of the US' discretionary spending ($1.3tn) $800 billion goes toward the military. The military exists for one reason: to protect capital and to further it's investments. There hasn't, nor will ever be, a credible threat to America's shores. There are two vast oceans on either side and minimal military strength in Mexico or Canada, or really minimal military strength in any of the Americas.

I don't entirely disagree with you, I just think they should tax when the money is spent, not when it's earned.

Oh and also, generic drugs are tested less because they were already tested as non-generics, the only thing needed is to ensure they are pure and using the same formula. Anything more would be a waste of money and resources.

Syd
09-26-2011, 02:11 PM
They're tested, but there are legal safeguards in place that prevent consumers from being properly protected (mainly avoiding lawsuits) which is a big reason why they're cheaper.

As for why you tax money when it is earned is because it is more consistent as well as being more fair. Consumption taxes disproportionately target the middle class -- they're the bulk of spenders in the nation, not as Fox News would have you believe it's our benevolent god-king job creators. Not that I am against a consumption tax, but only for non-perishable goods.

In Florida they want to drug test people on public assistance. I have no opposition to that. No one forced them to become members of the recipient class. If someone wants a job in many companies they have to take one.

So, your health insurance should come with mandatory drug tests? Other people are paying for any of your medical care.

Also, the only reason they want to drug test people on welfare is because the governor is in cahoots with a company that produces the drug testing kits. It's all about making people like you demonize those on welfare, when you should be demonizing capital for destroying government function in the name of profit.

You're so full of shit on both topics. First off, it's EXACTLY what every talker says, you added NOTHING with your "research" on the situation. Second, nothing stops him but common sense. He's but a mere drop in the bucket of our debt, reform of the broken system is the fix and he's trying to chime in to help that cause at his own financial expense. My comments aren't bumper stickers either, unless you want to cover your entire bumper, trunk and back window. I admittedly listen to both the left (WABC & Fox) and the right (Real Time and MSN) and weigh both perspectives. However, one is usually loaded with bullshit logic and "facts" leaning heavily on twisting everything in an effort to continue raping the middle class and system as Syd pointed out earlier, versus the other just taking it on the chin bc the give out entitlements. Sure both are HUGE chunks of the debt issue right now, but at least one helps those in fucking need, even if they need to be reassessed. But unions, fannie mae/freddie mac are hardly the issue in this country as we speak, it's the incredible imbalance and lack of true voice/action for the common US citizen. Welcome to Corporate Hell.

He cares so much as to change the root of the problem at hand, not step around it in one myopic scenario.


He runs many businesses and he wants higher taxes because the core of his businesses is insurance. Higher taxes means more profits for him.


He's playing the gullible people as fools and they are falling for his half truths

So I didn't google Warren Buffett and taxes on my own?

You want to talk taxes what about Ge in which their CEO is on Obamas economic team not having any tax liability. Wanna talk more corporatism? Let's look at GM another Obama favorite lying that they paid their loans back when that payment came from an escrow account.


Fannie and Freddie are in the secondary market and are still asking for billions because they are posting losses every quarter.


You still can't put in your head that the 47 % should pay something. They're no better than you . This administration wants everyone with skin in the game and pay their fair share that must include them too.

No, i don't want to talk about another company in a discussion about Buffet. Not sure why, but you consistently do this bullshit, and it's not effective at all. No let's not talk more corporatism, bc it's also not the discussion.

Yes, wf you did google Buffet, just now as you look at your fav sites as well for what to say. Hell, at times you only post links and not even disguise the fact you lean on others for your views. Bt your sources, ridiculous cartoons and parroting of the talkers it's fucking comical. You even employ the same technique StanUp pointed out months ago as a debating style (forgot the name) bc you stand on shaky ground with almost every spoon fed argument you touch on.

So let's not add 40 more topics to the one on hand at the moment. Just try this for once, focus with counterpoints to the topic at hand not contrived from biased sources and as you put it, "the talkers". Shock me and have an independent thought on said topic, not some random extrapolation.

You brought up corporations . I bring up a counterpoint. That's how debates work


Back to Buffett. He's nothing but a fraud. He bitches about taxes but he wants to keep as much as he wants. Same with the rest of the self haters. They all want everyone else to pony up while they pay their lawyers and accountants to find every loophole and shelter


Buffett belongs to that club

there is also a difference bt bringing up corporate issues overall with the tax code as it pertains to the discussion versus fully changing the whole conversation to yet another talking point from your talker/cyber fuckfest. in fact, why not just make a list and just cut and paste it in every thread on obama with cartoons and cut out the middleman. bc truly, ge, fannie mae/fredddie mac, goldman sachs surely explains why buffet's argument that tax loopholes should be nixed, the cuts negated and the system overhauled right? oh wait, 47% right down the middle of the plate coming

This is a thread about how Obama is the worst President ever . It doesn't just cover tax policy. There's also his huge fuckups over the economy the illegal war in Libya . The cronyism and lies, the fast and furious scandal , his shredding of the constitution and overall failure of a presidency.

Is 60K even considered a "livable wage"?



To some that's considered living it up

so in a discussion in the MLB thread on the yankee game specifically a point on the sox, pitching coaches and the DH in the NL are pertinent?

I give up...again.

Udog will be yelling at me for this too. Thanks for getting me in trouble WF. Why? I'm pretty sure I just got on PB for this the other day too! Fuck me!

Taxes are just one point of this thread. It's an important issue but not the only one

There are other serious issues also

Buffett feels bad he doesn't pay much. The simple solution is that he makes an example and pays up. He can set the example and be the hero because he did it on his own

Buffett can be the hero. He can buy ad time and ask his brethren to send to the IRS
