- Yes, she's scraping by at about $40,000 a month.
Poor thing.
I hear a thousand tiny violins playing a very sad song for her.

Yeah, they complain about 120,000 in taxes going to 143,000. So, instead of 380,000 to get by on, they will only have 357,000. Oh, how will they manage. - Reply to this comment
- Any other questions?

I did not know that you owned a business, how do you feel about not being able to write off medical insurance that bill is being tossed around now. Don?t you feel that will bring some employers to not offering healthcare?

Can you be more specific about exactly what legislation you are talking about? - Reply to this comment
- A chain of schools, 500 thousand a year and they don't think they are wealthy?
Bull. Yeah, they are just scraping by, aren''t they? After all, their two million dollar home and pair of high end BMW's aren't cheap to maintain, right? This is the problem. All these rich a-holes don't think they should pay their share, that they aren't rich.

- It's better to baffle with BS, than to argue the facts.

Oh, but that's the funny part, Becky doesn't even baffle with BS. It's always "oh yeah, well Bush" or "oh yeah, well Rush", then lollollol as if she's funny. Like I said, Becky is a "legend" in her own mind, and since she is small minded we can all conclude that "legends" on maps are bigger.

Crickets..............

- Its just AMAZING what the dems are doing to the American auto workers who helped get the dens into power. The Obama people are demanding that GM and Chrysler not only negotiate the workers salary and benefits down, but are also DEMANDING that they LAY OFF many tens of thousands of those workers to boot.
What a PAL Obama is....

This subject's a real "stinker" for me, I posted that Obama was telling them what they wanted to hear verses reality. At least McCain told them the truth and wouldn't pretend "everything" was going to be hunky Dory for middle class workers once he was in charge. Obama promised them the world and a reversal of NAFTA, yeah right, where did that promise go? I'm not saying that McCain had some fantastic rescue package either, but he didn't pretend to have one. I heard so many voters saying, Obama has a plan for more jobs and McCain doesn't. Well I submit that neither one had a magic wand, but one pretended he had one to win. Well he won and now they are all on the chopping block.
ps My family drives cars made by GM, my brother writes the computer programs for cars and works in the "drive-train' division (which just suffered major cuts, my brother survived, but some brilliant computer scientists got escorted out by security) and the biggest farce of all is that I see Obama stickers on foreign made cars all the time, how's that for being a pal to the "middle class worker" in the U.S.A. - Reply to this comment

- Aren't there any conservatives out there that can have an honest, intelligent debate?
Not one?

You don't debate, you're all about "lol" and Rush, and trying to knock people down. Everything I've stated so far is right on the money. The companies that provide the most jobs at higher wages will be taxed, they will re-due their budget based on trying to stay in line with their forecast and this will hurt the "middle class" worker because it will be their benefits reduced, their wages squashed, their "training programs" cut, their 401k programs eliminated or never started, and so on......If you were really about "intelligent" debate you'd understand that what I'm saying is absolutely true.
By the way, what does your highest paid employee make? I've asked this repeatedly because I would like your verification that you are providing "good wages" for your employees, something the "middle class worker" would call a decent wage to raise a family on. Does your company have:an engineering dept., an accounting dept., a human resources dept., how about sales, marketing, maybe a "shop' floor, material handlers, line workers, production control, environmental???? Come on, please let us know what a "job" producer your business is. The departments I mentioned are all "common" at medium sized companies and that's what out of work "middle class" people are looking for, is this what you provide?
If I keep on hearing crickets on this one, well then we'll just have verification of what a "windBAG" you are.
ps My family has thrived on "trickle down" and I have four brothers. All have worked their way up the ladder and benefited during the Bush years. AND LOL WE LIVE IN MICHIGAN, WHICH HAS BEEN RUN INTO THE GROUND BY OVERZEALOUS, TAXING DEMOCRATS AND IT'S THE DEMOCRATS THAT VOTED THEM IN THAT DON'T HAVE JOBS. - Reply to this comment

More trickle down baloney.
Bush's huge tax breaks for the wealthy are still in effect now.
How's that been working for the last 8 years?
Has it created a lot of jobs?
No?
