You see, all money belongs to the government, so when oil companies, or anybody else, gets a tax break, it’s like stealing from Uncle Sam. Get it? Property rights are so outdated.
All our money are belong to us.
The only way to beat these people is to call their bet and raise.
This whole "subsidies for oil companies' rhetoric is all a big lie.
When oil companies are making huge profits and youre struggling at the pump, and were scouring the federal budget for spending we can afford to do without, these tax giveaways arent right, Obama said Saturday. They arent
...........................................................
May I please ask how taking away subsidies from oil companies is going to help our struggle at the pump?
Actually it will make it worse because the oil companies will simply raise the price.
But that isn’t the point and Obama knows it.
If the Government takes away those subsidies they will not go back into the Treasury. Obama will spend them buying windmills. But he doesn’t think we are smart enough to figure that out.
Yep!
First we need to find someone with the cajones for poker.
Barry - It is not YOUR money .
It does not belong to the government
You tax them and our costs will go up.
Shut up and go away...........
Hey. Good luck. This crop of GOP is like flogging themselves.
Well, that’ll cause $7/gallon gasoline or nothing will.
I’m sorry to say that there are many people who buy this nonsense. They think that “big oil” and speculators are driving up the price of oil. I wonder where these people go when the price of oil drops? The lack of understanding of even the basics of economics is frightening.
Try explaining that to the illinformed voters.
‘end subsidies’ sounds good to the untrained ear. If the Obama administration tries to end these legitimate business expenses ONLY for the oil companies, will it hold up in court?
Don’t you have to have Production before you have subsidies?
Just say we will you big dummy and the price will drop by half tomorrow.
Guess Uncle Sam missed the correlation between the falling dollar and the rise in gasoline prices....gas isn’t more expensive,just that the dollar is approaching toilet paper value. Thank you O Great One (and your side-kick, Fed Chief Beanie).
We need to end Government subsidies at the pump and elsewhere.
Tax REVOLUTION!
The American public isn’t keen enough to know the difference between 1 ply and 2 ply right now, let alone the diff between a low tax rate and a subsidy.
One wonders if Mr. O is pursuing the same tax punishment for GE and his other bed buds.
Stalin re-warmed.
Econ 101....if you want more of something that benefits society you subsidize it.......Energy and Food
Wonder why the Obama regime doenst talk about ending pure govt welfare in terms of Home Mtg. Int. deduction, IRA and or 401k deducts......things that Indiv. should be doing on their own anyway.......
.....but now he’d be talking about millions of voters?
Since when is a legitimate business expense deduction a tax subsidy?
Obama and his voters are economic illiterates. They should have to pay ten bucks a gallon to subsidize us from their stupidity.
