Ink Not Dry From Fiscal Cliff Deal and Maxine Waters Proposes…Milking the Rich More!

Think that congressional Democrats are done lusting for the lucre of those they perceive as the filthy rich? Think again. They’re far from finished.

Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., signaled yesterday on Ed Schultz’s radio show that the road to “fair share” is long indeed with many tolls along the way—especially for those in limos. …

Well, you know, the Republicans are talking about, what all they’re going to do with these tax cuts. The president has said we cannot cut our way out of a deficit and he’s absolutely correct. The first thing that we’ve got to do is look at where we still have unfairness in the tax system and make sure that the people of influence, the billionaires and the millionaires and the corporate interests are paying their fair share. And I believe that whether we’re talking about the financial speculation tax or the elimination of the carried interest or defense spending, we’ve got areas that we could look at to get fair share so that we’re able to take care of the basic needs of this country rather than going to Medicare and Medicaid and Social Security and focusing on those areas as the only place that we can get more revenue. …

Something tells me that we will see more than our share of Gérard Depardieux departing . . . and the Tea Party is going where, Mrs. Waters Williams?

Except herself of course. Even though she’s a 1%er, she’s exempt.

Until they have all the resources (ie: a total Communist State) they will not be satisfied. Even then they will resort to fighting among themselves for a greater share of power or a bigger dascha or a longer, blacker limo. These people are sickos. They will bring down civilization if they are not stopped. Can you say, "Dark Ages 2"?

Rabid marxist/”progressive”/sociaiist/totalitarian ALERT!

See “this liberal” (deceptive POS)...here...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0BdKkEKTrs

The plunder of the nation continues unchecked. The forced economic enslavement of “Americans” living and not yet born continues without abatement. Legislative totalitarians living large roam the republic from sea to shining sea. We know the looters names but the “WANTED” posters with bounties are not being printed.

—That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

FUMW...you control-freak, power-hungry, rabid socialist. Any individuals in Congress that represent us want to speak up? It’s tough for spineless men to get in the face of a totalitarian POS.

T.E.A.

Ask a liberal/socialist/marxist/democRAT (sorry for the redundancy), to give you the definition of "fair share," and sit back and watch the mental gymnastics they go through. IF they give you a definition of "fair share," then ask them who will decide what their "fair share," should be.

They either implode, shut up, or get a headache. It's fun to watch.

More Maxinisms. The woman needs help. First, tax those evil rich right out of the country. Second, ignore the billions in wasteful spending on pork, gov’t waste, aide to countries that despise us, etc. - there are your cuts. Third, she needs more money for social programs to keep minorities in horrid inner city conditions as the Democrats have created and sustained for decades - but it buys votes. Why a Black votes Democrat is way beyond me.

Of course we can cut our way out of a deficit. If we don’t spend ANY money, we won’t have a deficit.

Everything I have seen indicates that the working class are getting milked. FICA increases and taxes seem to be hitting them, not the “wealthy”, who make more than 110k or live on trust funds and capital gains.

It sure seems like this new redistribution of wealth is mainly focused on make the rich poor and the elite even richer. Those poor suckers dont seem to realize they’re just being used as a tool to get the job done by their votes and their mouths.

Maxine is only one IQ point above the morons that vote for her.

She is in Congress for one reason, she is black in a black district.

Like the rest of the CBC.

I thought this hag was under investigation what happened to that. The hag was involved in “unfair” business practices with her hubby, no?

I thought she would at least suffer the Rangel treatment. ha.

Yes, she is exempt alright from the chaos she intends to cause. If fact, she uses that chaos which she and her utterly morally exempt cohorts cause, to bolster their influence and fatten their bank accounts.

This soulless creature and those like her, will be judged.

That’s the thing about Libs ...give them an inch and they’ll take a mile. Which is why one should never compromise at all with them. Let them get their way with Kalashnikovs and extended magazines, and they will move to pistol-grips. So on and so forth, until you have a UK type situation where they are now trying to ban long kitchen knives! Give them an inch and they will take a mile, and I simply don’t understand what the GOP thinks will make them stop. The GOP truly is the stupid party, not realising that they’ve allowed the Libs to take the country waaaaay left of Center (to the point where current Republicans are more
Liberal than ‘60s era Democrats). The GOP is like a poisoned rat in that it has already entered a terminal situation but just doesn’t realize it yet. It just continues to nibble on some more of that ‘free cheese’ that just happens to have a ‘funny taste’ to it. Anyways, rule of thumb for dealing with Libs ....NO COMPROMISE.

Sheila Jackson Lee and Maxine Waters in a bloody cat-fight?

You would think heavyweight Sheila would come out on top, but Maxine’s as mean as a snake, so toss-up.

The millionaires and the billionaires gotta pay more.

When they pay more they accumulate less capital available for saving, which means less investment, which means less productive expenditure, which means less demand for labor, which means both less new labor hired and less increase in money wage rates for the average worker. Less capital accumulation also means less increase in the productivity of labor which means less increase in real wage rates of the average worker and less increase in their standard of living.

So, again libtard envy and resentment against achievement leads to a perversity of result where the policy hurts workers worse than it does the rich capitalists. But since libtards are stuck on stupid, they will never change.

How about—making the rich pay 100% taxes! Maybe they could be tried in Soviet style People’s courts as the Enemies of the State! They could confess there many crimes and be executed! What was the old Communist mantra? “No rich, no poor, all equal,”
