I’ve never been one for a third party. The challenge before us has always been to take the reigns from the GOPe.
However, this story suggests a path where there is no other option - that the GOP is demolished by the ‘Rat droppings to the point where there is no GOP for the GOPtp to take over anymore.
The parties want to talk tax cuts, but they don’t really want to do it. Taxes are one of the ways they control us.
Nigel Farage spoke to CPAC last week noting that the UK, and I think the US as well, is a Corporatist state run by Big Business, Big Banks and Big Government.
Its time for a 3rd party that reaches both sides like UKIP in the UK which drew 2/3rds of Conservative voters and 40 percent of Labour voters in special elections held late last year.
Everyone who works & earns gets a cut, period.
Also a candidate will promise anything to get elected and if he or she does, forgets the promises that were made
There is no other alternative. We must have another party. The GOP is what it is and is never going to change from within. The party apparatus and culture is too deeply embedded for it to ever reform itself.
How many more decades of failure, weakness and incompetence do we need to see? The GOP base is suffers from the political equivalent of battered wife syndrome. The party keeps crapping all over it but the base dutifully keeps on voting for them. Its really incomprehensible.
Dems are for it? Some how I see my taxes going up.
Why continue to subsidize failure? If the GOP was a business it would have gone bankrupt years ago. It does not produce a “product” that is worthy of buying IMO. Like any failed project, at some point you have to let it go.
I guarantee you’re right about that. Good post.
I am running for president and my plan for taxes is a 20% cut across the board.
Every working taxpaying American will be granted a tax free year of employment every 5 years. This would allow a person to work for themselves and their family alone for about 6 to 7 years out of a lifetime of labor.
It is not impossible but difficult to be successful in business because taxes and regulations hold down business owners who are not connected to the government. Everything is big business. The GOP as a big business and the GOP is connected to the government so they must be playing the part they are supposed to play.
I can’t really see where the UK Gov’t is doing anything outstanding in their policy. So why is this a good thing?
Lower the rates.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_House_of_Representatives_elections,_1912
D vote % 43.1%
D seat % 66.67%
Vote splitting is not an option
The current government led by “Conservative” Prime Minister David Cameron is a farce.
Cameron has doubled the national debt, increased foreign aid, allowed immigration to increase and go unchecked and so on. Cameron even lobbied US Senators by phone recently supporting Obama’s efforts to cut a nuclear deal with Iran.
That’s why United Kingdom Independence Party is in the fight now offering an alternative to business as usual politics. Its leader Nigel Farage tells it like it is including the pretense that the major parties have major differences.
UKIP won the European Parliament Election last year with 27 percent of the vote nationwide. UKIP also won two special elections for parliamentary seats since and is polling in double digit percentages ahead of the May 7th General Election.
The Uniparty collusion of Big Business, Big Banks and Big Government moves forward unchecked regardless of whether D’s or R’s hold power.
They are globalizing the economy, breaking down borders and destroying sovereign nations.
The BBC Home Affairs Correspondent Dominic Casciani said today the migration (immigration) patterns are driven by “the single market” and by that he means a world wide economic system.
The GOP as a big business and the GOP is connected to the government
**************
Watch the GOP soon agree to raise the debt ceiling again. They like spending every bit as much as the Dems do and they don’t see the rising $18 TRILLION debt as a problem.
Yet the gullible GOP base keeps voting for them. Very strange.
If you think a 2/3s democrat congress in this day and age wouldn’t DESTROY the country in a matter of weeks, you’re sorely mistaken. Nothing that enables that circumstance is an option for serious conservatives.
You still haven't told me why this is superior.
In my view, no good thing happens when the right joins with the far left. That's what happened in the 30's here and it kept FDR in power for FOUR terms.
