And there was not a one of those proposed taxes he did not like and think was absolutely essential to the “orderly” functioning of government.

Order the government to function, and it shall be so.

But people are odd in one respect, and it probably applies to just about everybody - if an order does not make sense or have an obvious advantage for the person whom it affects most directly, that order is almost surely going to be widely disrespected.

Taxes are the absolute antithesis to growth. Consider tax collection to be like harvesting a field crop. When the growth is mature, the harvest may be taken with little harm to the growth cycle, so long as the seeds for the next growth cycle are saved back. But when the harvest is attempted too soon, the full maturity is never achieved, and there is no potential for growing a new crop from the seeds left over from that harvest. If the seeds of the new crop are disrupted in their planting and cultivation, they shall never sprout, and thus never provide even the possibility of growth.

This is just 1 reason of thousands why the news media installed this socialist monster Obama as president. the news media knew that Obama would advance socialism more effectively than anyone else on the planet even more so than Hillary Clinton .

1. Obama has violated the constitution many times
2. Obama ordered the IRS to keep conservative groups from organizing and so to rig the elections of 2012 and beyond
3.Obama is the head of the federal government , the creep in charge and is responsible for benghazi, Obamacare, bad economy , 18 trillion in debt, IRS gestapo oppressing conservatives, EPA global warming regime, Bundi Ranch tyranny etc.

4. I don't want to hear soros, jarret . Lerner, or whatever phantom is responsible for all this evil. it is Obmaa that is in charge. it is one socialist named Obama who is responsible for the destruction of America
5.

I find it difficult to comprehend that my own brother told me last week he does not know what the Tea party stands for.

TAXED ENOUGH ALREADY!!

even supporters see INCOMPETENCY AND CORRUPTION and dont like it.... only cement head bobbleheads and the vagina vote still back him. Blacks still back him 85% even though they are worse off and got used...and will have wasted 8 years of opportunity to solve real problems. its people like Dr. Ben Carson that blacks should look to if they want to improve their lot. He has several non-political programs that can be applied in inner cities that work. Wake up...

And were it not for the Tea Party wave in 2010, he would have passed at least 400 of them.

There, fixed it!

Left to their own designs, the Democrats will quite literally destroy this country.

The pubs?......oh well they would me a mile or so behind.
