wealth
I’m just sayin’ asked:


Republicans say they **** the concept of spreading the wealth. But what they mean is that they want to spread the wealth their way: by giving CEO’s a tax cut. So how are those Republican wealth spreaders doing?

- Did a CEO spread some of his wealth back to you lately?
- Did a CEO create a job for you recently?
- Are there CEO’s out there spreading something other than bonuses and layoff notices?

never, this is why the policies of us republicans have ruined our economy

Clearly CEO’s have not used the tax cuts to create new jobs. Regardless of the economy the number one strategy of all corporations is to reduce labor costs either by cutting jobs or outsourcing. The fallacy of “trickle on” economics has been proven over and over.

I wish Americans could visit countries like the Philippines and see the way the Communist militias harrass poor people with their class warfare.

They are identical to America’s liberals. Liberals here are becoming nothing more than shameless liars, bigots and communist burn-outs.

(For more information, google NPA, the National People’s Army.)

Barak is a multimillionaire. Most of the Senators are wealthy. The Democrats should lead by example. They should make their wealth available to the poor.
As long as they are elected officials, they don’t have to worry about income, health insurance, travel expenses.

They do spread the wealth. They create jobs, make products we want and put money in the bank, that banks use to give out loans so you can buy a house or car


Mr. Sir on 18 May, 2010 at 2:00 am #

Yay, let’s take away money from other people since we can’t be successful on our own! CEO pay can be way higher than it should, but who’s fault is that? If you don’t like what they get paid, don’t buy their products. Start your own company and don’t give your CEO a big salary, then you can put the over paid CEO companies out of business with your lower costs. Just quit your job, and ask Obama for a pay raise for doing nothing. He likes that kind of thing.

When we do it for them. Preferably just after we have strung them up from a lamp post or other handy street furniture.

Viva Robin Hood!

They won’t. (of course m1a1 has a good point………they don’t have to “spread the wealth” by giving it away, they can just hire more people)

MY BEEF WITH OBAMA INCLUDES:

He nominated 2 tax cheats to serve in his administration:

He SAID he would ban all lobbyists (then waived the rules when it mattered):

He then SAID George W. Bush was wrong for throwing money at the banks (but now wants to do it ON A LARGER SCALE):

He also said he would veto any bill with pork in it (the solution: SECRET PORK!!):

(Also, Obama endorsed Blagojevich in 2002 and 2006, Blago endorsed him right back)

You mean all of those new jobs that were created between 2002 and 2007?

The owner of my company ’spread the wealth’ during this time period by:
Increasing the number of employees from 110 to over 250.
Investing just about all of the company’s profits into new production equipment and machines.

The reason he did this? Because he stood to make more money by re-investing the profits in the company because of the preferential tax rate on capital gains vs. income tax.

Right now, times are tough at the company and the owner is doing everything he can to avoid layoffs. I don’t know how long he can continue to do this though.

CEOs will start spreading the wealth when our laws stop protecting them, and the people take redistribution of wealth into their own hands. A polite request by Mr. Obama will not solve the problem of greed.


J. L. on 28 May, 2010 at 1:24 pm #

I do not believe in the whole “redistribution of wealth”. That is Socialism. Capitalism is a good system as is Socialism….if done correctly. Remember, England is a democratic society with a socialistic economy….

Back to the original question…the answer is NO. Greed is what got that nation here. Even now, they are justifying paying them selves hefty bonuses after accepting federal funds. If any of you are not angry at that then I worry for you. I fear for our future because Washington is filled with lobbyists and special interests groups. They outnumber the politicians 2:1. That is ridiculous. There are more lobbyists than politicians. When the media tells you they spend billions lobbying, what does that mean to you. Where is that going? They aren’t say that. It doesn’t take rocket science. I saw a stat that showed AIG paying 400 million in bonuses to a total of 100 people. The average is 1 million per person. Now, let us use common sense. Nothing is spread out so a large chunk went to the top. None of this is difficult to understand. The economy we are in is a result in corporate America doing all it could to earn the mighty dollar…which isn’t so mighty right now. Both sides and both parties have caused this. We don’t need Free Trade, we need Fair Trade. Remember, nothing in life is free. That trade costs someone and that someone is the American middle class. We lost jobs! Profits soared but not jobs. Our manufacturing is steadily declining. I remember when you could by an American TV and I am in my 30’s. Now, its just Japan running the show. That’s was just the beginning. We don’t make the clothes we wear anymore. I worry about tomorrow with the **** poor leadership that exists in America.

I bet the same time you do.

Ever given a begger any money?

Thought not.

It’s ok, I don’t either.
