Sorry, but reparations to pay for the sins of our ancestors is the next step that this man will try to swing over the american people.
i know, no one alive today was ever a slave or had a slave, but that means nothing to him.
why do you think 95% of the blacks in this country voted for him?
we will also have dc staehood, an ammunition tax so egragarious that it will stop most people from using firearms, the bestow of citizenship on 20 millions illegals ( read new democrats) and the list goes on and on.
thanks to all the useful idiots who elected this monstrosity.
Good idea, i did that yesterday. if lots of folks do this it will definitely send a strong message. Do not let them hold your money interest free this year. also, this protects you from getting an IOU instead of your refund such as is happening to Californians this year.
i will do all in my power to sabotage the current federal govt. I am retired military and voluntarily served 2 tours in Nam with the marine corps but i don’t recommend military service to anybody at this point. Our current govt stinks and needs to be torn down as quickly as possible so we can start re-building it.
They have my prayers....
I can live with that.
BINGO!!!
I agree with you 100%. Also, now they are getting a hold of the census. They are going to fix the election big time.
I would love to get a check for $4-5,000. I would use it to pay back taxes that I owe.
He did the same thing in an interview with Chris Wallace. Wallace pointed out that cutting capital gains would result in more money in the treasury. Obama responded that the purpose of capital gains taxes was to implement fairness in our society.
Indeed. It's the "Look! There's Elvis!" ploy. While everybody is screaming about Obama's payoffs, they sneak in this Trojan Horse. Watch every illegal be counted in the next census and registered by ACORN in the next election. Short of a drastic miscue by the Democrats, the Republicans will never be in power again.
I went into an Apple Store yesterday, and there were two young women in front of me gushing with excitement over getting a stimulus check from the government and what they were going to buy with it.
I thought about how I would have approached the subject with people I know, and I was stumped.
Perhaps I might have tried the approach: “You FOOLS! This is YOUR money they are giving back to you that they took away from you in the first place!”
Or vent on this level: “You don’t even make enough money to cover what you have put in via taxes to cover what you are getting! THEY ARE TAKING TAX MONEY FROM ME AND MY FAMILY TO GIVE TO YOU SO YOU CAN BUY IPODS!”
Or even more to the point: “Don’t you dummies understand that this money doesn’t just get printed and distributed to you. It has to come from somewhere, whether the government borrows money to be paid back with interest or a pound of flesh is taken out of all of us with the hyperinflation that is coming as a result of throwing all this money with no backing into the economy!”
At that point, it occurred to me: They simply don’t care.
Obama is a racist who spent twenty years listening to anti-American racist pap in a racist “church” and gave large sums of money to that “church”.
People don’t care.
Obama is an associate of a virulent anti-American radical terrorist, a member of a group who killed AMERICANS with bombs, who wished he had done more violence, whose most public moments in print are accompanied by a picture of him proudly and triumphantly standing on top of an American flag, the same flag I and my father served under, and my father was buried under. This man is one of Obama’s principal patrons, who by his own admission is “guilty as sin-free as a bird”, and quite proud of that.
People don’t care.
Obama is corrupt to the core, steered money towards his family (wife) and friends.
People don’t care.
Obama is an avowed socialist who believes in redistribution of wealth.
People don’t care.
Obama thinks higher taxes are the way to fix our problems.
People don’t care.
Obama thinks higher gasoline prices are good for us.
People don’t care.
Obama thinks guns should be banned.
People don’t care.
Obama is a devotee of Saul Alinsky’s techniques as described in “Rules for Radicals”, one of the most disgusting things I have ever read.
People don’t care.
I am disheartened about this past election in ways I simply cannot describe, but most depressing and discouraging for me is that I worked hard as a citizen to understand the issues. I made the effort to evaluate and re-evaluate my stand on issues and make sure they were backed by logic and consistent with what was best for our nation.
My vote was trumped and negated by a damned ignorant idiot who came to the conclusion Obama was going to pay for her mortgage and her gasoline.
These two young women I saw in line at the Apple Store could not care less either. They want a piece of pie, and could not care less who “gives” it to them. They, and many other American voters don’t understand the adage “If something seems to good to be true, it probably isn’t.”
It is time for them to start sucking at the government teat. Which is EXACTLY what people like the radicals in charge want.
Thanks, I’m going to adjust my deductions so that I get nothing back!
I have been saying that since the election. We are dealing with an unknown here. From where I sit, and I not trying to be negative about this, but realistic, Socialism won on Nov 4th.
Obama is consolidating his power and I think there will be a power struggle with the legislature as well.
He needs to enslave us under a mountain of debt. That’s how Communist Dictators control the masses.
Pray for America, Our Troops and obama’s Guidance
Yep, that is the Marxist way. In all other Marxist takeovers they move fast, disarm the people and the blood bath begins.
I personally doubt there will be another election.
We are going to have to fight to re-establish our Republic, because it has been overthrown by a Marxist coup. The coup must be destroyed.
I can live with that.
I could too, but I think that the odds to this actually happening are about 99,999,999,999 to 1 againt: The problems are two-fold. If they were to do that, the government loses control over who does and doesn't get the cuts. One thing that the government HATES is giving up power of any sort, and their favorite sort of power is setting just how much of our earnings we get to keep.
Secondly, if people were to suddenly realize just how much they are paying in taxes, even if they get it all back at the end of the year, politicians would have one hell of a time trying to reinstate the taxes.
So, even though it would be easy, cheap, immediately take effect, and it makes sense, I have no doubt that the congress will never do it.

If you had a stack of 1.3 trillion donuts, each of them one inch thick, the stack would be about 20 million miles high.
THAT was probably the biggest motivator right there.
The worst thing you could do, other than mailing out checks or dumping money from helicopters.
A TEMPORARY tax holiday does nothing to change anybody’s incentives. Nobody is going to invest in a real business if the tax burden is going to come back in two months or even two years.
The Bush tax cuts were excellent supply-side tax cuts—but the very fact that they were temporary guaranteed that, as the deadline approached, there would be uncertainty, instability, and recession. As the deadline approached, the Democrats started howling for EARLY repeal of the tax cuts. That only makes the tax cuts less effective.
Sure—as long as the tax cuts are still in effect, we get to keep more of our money. But the closer the expiration date gets, the slower investment gets.
The income tax is an unmitigated CURSE. The Sixteenth Amendment is a crime against the American people. The Communists who put it in place should have been tarred, feathered, and burned at the stake.
The American people, who don’t rise up against it, are being punished for their own greed and envy—because greed and envy are the vices that the income tax appeals to.
Unfortunately many of the “tax breaks” and “tax refunds” are for people who don’t pay taxes. In this bill, even illegals will get a stimulus check.
