If you count on someone else to bail you out, you will be a failure. PERIOD.

Most won't. I never ran into so many quarter of a millionaire's before in my life... until I joined GLB. From some of my team forums to the "trash talk" forums to now here. So many people claim to bring in over 250k and Obama will take all of their "hard earned money". Funny thing is, according to the IRS who make it their sole purpose in life to track income for every US citizen, about 3.9% of the US makes over 250k. I guess they all play GLB, too.

Actually, you have to make $250,000/yr to be able to join in on any internet fight. You also have to be 245lb of pure muscle and have 3 bangin' girlfriends. As is the case of some people at GLB, you must also be able to play sports at a level I could only dream of.

Please explain these "handouts" you speak of.


One handout is decreasing taxes on those who already dont pay taxes, paying or diferring people's mortgages, and universal health care.

Depends on how you look at it. Even if a person pays no federal taxes they still pay state, property, sales tax etc... so the "handout" they get can also be viewed as "reimbursements" of taxes already paid elsewhere. Of the 3.10 Trillion dollar budget we have as a nation I've never seen so many people whine over some dude making 9k a year getting a check for $300 while paying no taxes. Seriously, there's bigger fish to fry.

These handouts happen under Reagan, Bush I, Clinton, Bush II and will continue under Obama. It's not like Obama is coming in and giving away free money for the first time in America. Every Presidety before him all the way back to LBJ has done the same. The Progressive tax system has been in place since 1913 as well. Nothing Obama is proposing is "new" in all honesty.

I'm out, though. I've wasted too much time on these election threads as it stands.
