L4L; Wow…your hatred of the wealthy is that deep seated? Let me ask you a very simple question, or two…What is greed? Not a cut-n-paste from the internet….what do YOU consider to be greed? Second question….Name someone who earns "too much" money?

L4L, here's a little fact about people being kept from the middle class and the poor as well:
Another Hillary ad telling us about how she is dedicated to "keeping the tax burden off the middle class."
Aren't you wondering why Hillary just wants to get the tax burden off the middle class and not the poor? Well, Einstein, that would be because the left has already succeeded in getting the tax burden off the poor. You'll be pleased to know that the bottom 50 percent of income earners in this country – and that would be one-half of all people with income – pay a bit less than four percent of all income taxes. When you get to the bottom 40 percent of income earners that figures goes to zip. Nothing. But, you say, what about their payroll taxes? Fair enough. Various tax credits, including the hideous Earned Income Tax Credit, is pretty much taking care of that situation.
So ... with the poor already exempted from income taxes, who would be next? Why the middle class, of course! And once Hillary and the MoveOn Democrats succeeded in, as she says, "keeping the tax burden off the middle class," who's left? The evil, putrid, filthy rich ... that's who! Once the MoveOn Democrats manage to shift the entire federal tax burden off to the evil rich, how in the world are they ever going to lose another election? All they have to do is just tell the voters "If you vote for my opponent, he's going to make you pay taxes." Now if that message wouldn't sell, I don't know what would.
Why do you think there is so much left wing opposition to the FairTax? When every single household in this country is protected from paying federal taxes right up to the poverty level, and when the tax code treats each and every person in this country exactly alike ... how do you play the demagogue game during an election?
You're seeing one of the principal reasons some politicians and tax policy wonks are fighting the FairTax. They view a tax code as not simply a way to raise revenue for the necessary functions of government. They also look at the tax code as a tool for social engineering and a way to manipulate voters. These are tools many politicians don't want to loose. It's really up to you to take them away.
Now ... about that magic middle class. You've certainly heard these Democrats talking about the "disappearing middle class," haven't you? Well ... truth is these politicians have a point. Pay attention, this is important. Stephen Rose is an economist. Rose isn't just any economist; he's a labor economist working for a "progressive" (that means liberal) think tank. Rose defines middle class as households earning between $30,000 and $100,000 a year. He admits that there are fewer people in the middle class today than there were 30 years ago. Reason? That would be because the percentage of Americans who earn more than $100,000 a year has doubled .. from 12 percent in 1979 to 24 percent now. And how about those ranked below the middle class? The percentage of people earning less than $30,000 a year has remained unchanged. So .. .the Democrats are right. The middle class is shrinking. What they're not telling you is that the people who are disappearing from the middle class are headed where? To upper and high income categories, that's where. Isn't it rather odd that you never hear this interesting little factoid in the media?
Also, if you're so happy just making what need to live comfortably, why do you want to steal money from those that want to be rich through the by way of the federal gov?? You supposedly have all you need shouldn't they???

I only need to make what i need to live comfortably. How is this wrong ?
Its not my dream to be wealthy ,I was taught that greed is the ultimate evil.
I truely believe this with all of my heart. Ive seen one of the wealthiest man in the world crash jets into world trade center. Thats not evil ? I suspect other wealthy people are only trying to get richer by any means possible. Even if it means keeping the poor from being middle class. Actually overly wealthy people make me feel ill. They are out of touch with reality and they think they own people. They don't consider the person fixing their car or preparing their daily meal. They only care of themselves and family.
reply: dude, are you for real? not your dream, yet you wish everyone to play in your dream with you?
peace... don't be hatin'

greed is wanting more than you need in a lifetime and still wanting more.
its like a fat child that wants more candy. he knows he doesnt need it but its the only way he knows to feel good.

L4L: "Wanting more than you need"??? Let me ask you, do you own a microwave? More than one phone (Cell or regular)? A dishwasher? Clothes washer and dryer? Do you own any of these? If so, do you really need them? Our ancestors didn’t need them. Or try this, the day before payday, do you have a little cash in the bank….$40 or $50? If so, do you give it back? Or are you greedy? People are simply a sum of all their choices. It sounds as though you have made your choices and aren't a very happy person. I guess if you know that other peoples wealth is being confiscated from them, your life will somehow be better, or the world will be right???
You never answered my other question. Name one person who "earns too much"

Raises should be mandatory for the middle class and poor. I believe in an even playing field. As for hillary i doubt she would change a thing. She might put up nicer curtains in the white house,thats about it. I actually work 2 jobs and I m not saying this to be proud its just what i do . I give up part of my private life to make a better living. It just so happens the wealthy are against some of the things i strongly believe.
its not their wealth that I despise.Its their views on subjects that I won't bring up at this time.

L4L: What a bunch of crap. You make statement like "The only way to make the wealthy bleed is tax their ass and watch them plead" and then try to say you don’t hate their wealth. You hate that you don’t have it. And you have avoided my questions. "Raises should be mandatory…"???What the hell is that? Mandatory according to who? Enforced by who? And what happens when you lose your job because your employer cant afford these mandatory raises? Just keep crying about those that have done better with their lives, I'm sure it will work out for you.
I would be interested to hear your answers to the questions I posed.

Im not running for president so my views wouldnt really matter. I really havent heard anything from hillary except healthcare that I agree with. I have healthcare so nothing would really change for me. I never agree with issues up to bat during elections anyway.
I wouldnt want hillary as president for the same reason I did't want bush. Nepotism......
I told my republican friends that bush would try to clean up daddie's mess and send us back to Iraq. They said I was crazy .....

I wouldn't care to see her as president but lets face it, my poor deceased dog could do a better job than the child-president we have now. Obama looks like the one would take the wind out of the sails of the Clinton-haters who would be out in full force if she gets the nomination.

Who do you think will be hillary's running mate ? edward or Obama ? Obama lacks experience but he does believe in alot of things I do. It might just be political hype with no action.
