Again -- the question is not hard: If raising the minimum wage helps the unemployment rate -- then why not make the min wage $50 per hour? Or $100 per hour? I mean, if this is what solves unemployment, why stop at $15? Why is that the magical number?

More obama shame! [Hidden Content]

They must think it is. Because we are getting more of it. How about the obama phones that cost the tax payers 2 BILLION a year? Obama's encouraging it. What is obama doing to turn this economy around? Help us understand where to look.

Since you like government controlling things, why not make the min wage $50 per hour?
-
So, we are at full employment now? :huh:

I wonder why obama hasn't said anything about what this deserter's father had to say at the White House? [Hidden Content]

Point well taken!

I presume by the lack of an answer you were never taught or read the Constitution?! But, again, read the 10th Amendment and tell us what you find...

The income tax was never "part" of the Constitution until 1913.
-
You are right. What it should have said was "Income Taxes." The government was funded with tariffs and duties. NOT on the backs of the American people. Income taxes were not instituted until 1913. Again, because they knew the evils of taxing the American people.

7 million has left the workforce since obama took office. But -- has had a dramatic increase in welfare and food stamps. Is this REALLY good for America? If it is, please let us know how! [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content]

This is for BigGirl: You think that more government is the answer to whatever problem that comes up. But, let me ask you this: Have you ever read the Constitution? In school, were you ever taught the Constitution? I'm going to guess not on both accounts. So -- go look at the 10th Amendment to the Constitution and tell us what you find. If you are really concerned, read the whole thing and see just how much the government now is infringing on individual liberties. When you read it, you'll see that's what the Constitution is all about -- individual freedoms, NOT government freedoms! And look around, is this what you see now?! PS -- Did they teach you in school that there were NO INCOME TAXES when the Constitution was written? WHY? Because the founding fathers knew the EVIL of taxes!! If you are really, really interested, you can go read the Federalist Papers and find out exactly what the founding father's were actually thinking...

True! he was a staunch anti-communist -- you know, America's enemy. He also cut taxes (It works every time it's tried! This ought to give BigGirl a cardiac arrest. She prolly didn't know that about Kennedy). He was NOT ant-business! He knew who creates jobs.
-
Why would he apologize? He ALLOWED these 5 top level terrorist to be released!! Again -- it's not about what's good for American. Remember -- he said he wanted to "fundamentally change America" before the first election. He has always believed that America has been the problem at home, and abroad. I think people are coming that sad conclusion. He's even got democrats scratching their heads over releasing these 5 hardened terrorist.

obama is less competent than George Bush! Well, Duh! [Hidden Content]

How about the unions benefiting? Could it be that the unions are pushing this to get more union dues? A higher rate means more dues (money) to the unions!

Smitty & Stevenash - When Will The Wealth Trickle Down?
smitty replied to EnlightenedChosenOne's topic in Political Forum
Because of taxes and environmental laws and other over burdensome government laws and regulations. I'll make it easy for you: Say you owned a business. State "A" has a higher tax rates and a harsher business climate than state "B". I'll ask you, Big Girl -- which state would you locate your business in? -
Smitty & Stevenash - When Will The Wealth Trickle Down?
smitty replied to EnlightenedChosenOne's topic in Political Forum
In a round about way. They are usually the ones that own the business' that people get jobs in. Yes -- trickle down did happen under Reagan and Bush 2. Check the unemployment rates under Reagan and Bush 2. -
Obama ignored intel stating that these 5 terrorist were dangerous thugs. Also, now we know the so-called American that was swapped was actually a deserter. And -- 5 military people were killed looking for him. So -- my question is: Why did obama do it?? You know -- make the swap... [Hidden Content]

Blue, Thanks for proving my point about liberals. You had three opportunities to state "something" about the evil act of releasing high level terrorist that could kill innocent people. But you chose to talk about the part of hurting someone's feelings. That's your prerogative if you think that's more important. But, I hope terrorist -- especially these 5 that obama let out -- never affects you or your family. But -- if it does, and I hope not, I bet you change your tune! But, I know the race card is used by liberals to "stifle" debate. Especially when they are losing the debate. Which is most of the time.
-
obama's at 24%. So, what's your point?! [Hidden Content]
-
It's amazing that the liberal President can with good conscious release 5 top ranking terrorist that will more than likely come back to haunt us by Americans getting killed. But if you say something that might hurt somebody's feelings, well, the wrath of God is brought done on you. Priorities!
