This Video Says it All… Tuesday, Feb 7 2012 

This video from CAGW says it all when it comes to the tax and spend culture we are currently living through. It will only get worse if we don’t stop the madness now.

Medicare and Fraud… Tuesday, Jan 10 2012 

It’s rampant. It isn’t going anywhere. It’s part of the reason why this country is so in debt. Did I mention that? I’m quite sure I have. Yet the left wants this fraud to continue unabated. The right won’t touch it because they don’t want to scare granny, or put a lot of pressure on the providers for fear of losing even more of them.

At any rate, here’s Cato Institute’s take on it:

Big Government… Tuesday, Jan 10 2012 

Some people are too fucking stupid to figure this out, so, I will keep harping on it until I can’t harp on it anymore.

Right now, 47% of this nation is sucking off the big government tit by not paying one dime in taxes, while the rest of us have to support that shit.

There is no war on poverty. No. It’s a war on the rest of us that have to pay for it.

Simple English… Wednesday, Dec 28 2011 

Never Yet Melted has an image of this on their sight. I just typed it out so it’s easier to read.

The budget explained in simple English.

I love it when complex things are simplified so that we can all understand.

  • United States tax revenue:
  • $2,170,000,000,000
  • Fed budget:
  • $3,820,000,000,000
  • New debt:
  •  $1,650,000,000,000
  • National debt:
  • $14,271,000,000,000
  • Recent budget cut:
  • $38,500,000,000

Now, remove 8 zeros and pretend it’s a household budget.

  • Annual family income:
  • $21,700
  • Money the family spent:
  • $38,200
  • New debt on the credit card:
  • $16,500
  • Outstanding balance on credit card:
  • $142,710
  • Total budget cuts which some politicians are proud about:
  • $385.

Stop the insanity now. Vote them out and demand a balanced budget.

Yeah, it’s the Tea Party’s fault.

Fire the Bastards… Tuesday, May 25 2010 

Keep raising taxes morons. Show the state just how out of touch you are with reality. This will bode well for Republicans of this state, if the idiot masses get their heads out of their asses.

That’s a huge if.

FIRE THE BASTARDS!

California Democrats unveil tax-increase package

SAN FRANCISCO, May 24 (Reuters) – Democratic lawmakers in California unveiled a plan on Monday for nearly $5 billion of tax and fee increases to help fill the state government’s $19.1 billion budget gap.

The plan by state Senate Democrats would raise $4.9 billion by raising California’s vehicle registration fee, suspending corporate tax breaks scheduled to begin next year and boosting the state’s tax on alcoholic beverages.

Democrats control both chambers of the state’s legislature and have said they would seek new revenue to help plug the shortfall.

Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, by contrast, has ruled out tax increases and is relying largely on deep spending cuts in his plan for balancing the state’s books. He has called for $12.4 billion of cuts and would scrap the state’s welfare system, a plan Democrats have rejected.

And He Lies Yet Again… Thursday, Apr 22 2010 

This is getting to be a rather routine thing for the great hemorrhoid in the White House.

Lie after lie. This time he’s actually called out on it be the MSM. Surprise, surprise, surprise.

Obama: As I’ve Always Said, I Promise I Won’t Raise “Any Form of Taxes” Income Tax on the Middle Class

Obama, shockingly, says he’s open to the idea of a VAT. He just wants to know all of his “options” before announcing the decision he actually made three years ago.

What’s actually a little surprising is that CNBC catches him altering his previous bullshit campaign promises:

Obama’s VAT admission may explain his recent attempts to alter the terms of his central campaign promise. Twice in the past two weeks, Obama has claimed his middle class tax pledge only applied to income taxes rather than “any form of taxes”.

In his April 10 Weekly Radio Address, Obama said: “And one thing we have not done is raise income taxes on families making less than $250,000. That’s another promise we’ve kept.” In a speech on the evening of April 15, Obama repeated the truncated promise: “And one thing we haven’t done is raise income taxes on families making less than $250,000 a year — another promise that we kept.

The two recent statements stand in stark contrast to Obama’s original promise: “I can make a firm pledge. Under my plan, no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase. Not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes.”

Sin Tax, Another Nanny State Idea… Wednesday, Sep 2 2009 

They don’t get to the anti-tax stance until the second page at the end of the article. But, what do you expect from Reuters?

At any rate, taxing everything more is not going to solve America’s problems. Lower taxes, less government are the proven methods of generating an economy that will be vibrant and let Americans prosper. This BS isn’t going to cut it.

Since they waited to say it at the end, I’m putting it up front:

Battle lines drawn over soda, junk food taxes
By Lisa Baertlein

Critics say new “sin tax” plans would turn the nation into a nanny state, hurt business, threaten an already weak economy and place an unfair burden on low-income shoppers. And groups such as Americans Against Food Taxes are striking back.

That organization has big-name backers such as juice maker Welch’s, PepsiCo Inc, the American Beverage Association, the Corn Refiners Association, agribusiness giant Cargill Inc and restaurant chains ranging from fast-food purveyors McDonald’s Corp and Burger King Holdings Inc to Olive Garden owner Darden Restaurants Inc.

Its website warns that taxes on sugary drinks would have a “negative impact on American families struggling in this economy.” A narrator on its television ads, which feature a family camping trip, says: “Taxes never made anyone healthy. Education, exercise and balanced diets do that.”

The Money… Monday, Aug 10 2009 

Pay attention people. The only way to keep America prosperous and a free nation is to make the tax system fair. Everyone should have to pay taxes. If everyone paid taxes, there would be no chance for socialism. When everyone has a stake in the deal, the idiots in Congress wouldn’t be able to get away with it.

Not About the Money
By Alana Goodman

Opponents of free-market economics have often portrayed capitalists as greedy money-grubbers, but one conservative think tank is arguing that free enterprise is the foundation of a virtuous and moral society.

“Taxation is about fairness and freedom, it’s not about money,” said American Enterprise Institute (AEI) President Arthur Brooks at the Heritage Foundation on August 4th. “You can raise my taxes another five points. I’m not going to like it, but my kids are not going to go without shoes. What’s going to offend me is it’s going to make me less free and it’s not fair and it’s not American…And that’s a moral case. “

An April 9th poll by Rasmussen Reports showed that Americans under age 30 were pretty much evenly divided on the question of whether they preferred capitalism or socialism, with 37% choosing capitalism and 33% choosing socialism.

Mayo Clinic Calls Bullshit… Monday, Jul 20 2009 

Here’s what the premier health organization has to say about the jug eared asshat’s health care plans:

Mayo Clinic’s reaction to House Tri-Committee bill

Although there are some positive provisions in the current House Tri-Committee bill – including insurance for all and payment reform demonstration projects – the proposed legislation misses the opportunity to help create higher-quality, more affordable health care for patients. In fact, it will do the opposite.

In general, the proposals under discussion are not patient focused or results oriented. Lawmakers have failed to use a fundamental lever – a change in Medicare payment policy – to help drive necessary improvements in American health care. Unless legislators create payment systems that pay for good patient results at reasonable costs, the promise of transformation in American health care will wither. The real losers will be the citizens of the United States.

Here’s a nice parody of the proposed health care BS…
