Here's a couple figures to chew on.
According to a study by the Economic Policy Institute, CEO compensation has outpaced the average worker's pay by astonishing margins over the past few decades. CEO compensation grew by a shocking 725% between 1978 and 2011, far outpacing the growth of the stock market. The average worker's pay has only risen by 5.7% in the same period.
So I know the GOP wants to grill the Democrats and vise versa, but whats the real problem issue here? I don't have the numbers, but I'd figure that we have more "average workers" per capita than we have CEO's. Translate CEO's incomes into more jobs. I would think this would translate into more revenue. Then you could multiply those added jobs by bringing back some of the jobs those CEO's decided to take out of country in order to create thier increased slaries and bonuses.

Everything was pretty decent in the nation until some retard from Georgia wanted to force banks to make loans to people that they knew couldn't pay them back. Then a second tard from arKansas upped the ante and forced the banks to do even more loans or they wouldn't be allowed to expand. Well, we all know (or should at least know) how that turned out.

Please explain why fifty percent of the population pays no income tax. Please explain why it's ok for the tax rates to be higher for some than others. How is affirmitive action fair? Why should I pay more for health care to cover the costs of providng care for someone else's illegitimate kids?
The Federal Income Tax should be abolished and replaced with a flat-rate consumption tax. Certain things like grocery and medicine could be exempt but a consumption tax would encourage people to save. You buy more you pay more taxes. It’s no more complicated than that and is the only fare way to tax the citizens of the United States.
Also, is anybody else as concerned as I am with the Obama’s Health Care bill providing funding for over 16,000 additional IRS Agents? Do any of you liberals even question why in the hell funding for IRS Agents is hidden in a bill supposed to improve your health care? You need to find out before it’s too late.
