Brothers in Arms

Congratulations, careerdaytrader, for being right at the 99th percentile in income. You'll get no argument from me that your contributions to society (i.e., gambling on the stock market) aren't worth more than those of the other 99% of us, including every teacher, policeman, nurse and fireman in the entire country.

And we can understand why the 1% or so of our fellow citizens, such as yourself, who make over $350,000 a year are desperate to see the Bush tax cuts renewed for themselves, because we know they're not content just to have ONE FOURTH OF THE TOTAL INCOME OF THE USA. Your vote for McCain makes perfect sense, because Obama's plan to put tax rates of the rich back to what they were before Bush started running up record deficits will actually produce a pretty hefty amount of revenue for the federal government.

It's poor salesmanship to call us lazy morons, though. After all, we outnumber you 99 to one.

You're short on the brain matter dept. LOL, definitely prove my point on how DUMB most Democrats are. I just had a thought today that can help the poor. STOP HAVING KIDS if you don't have any money! Wow, what a concept. People should have to prove adequate income before having kids. Rather than tax the hard working and rich MORE why not END POVERTY by those who are POOR NOT HAVING KIDS and perpetuating POVERTY.

Careful Harley, Career Trader professes to be Rich, Powerfull and brilliant. His idea of intelligent is McFudd graduating almost last out of 900 student, He is one of the few, and proud that can interpret what The Shrub is saying, he loves the way McFudd vigorously worked his way into Cyndi's money, his idea of smart is Abramoff raking the Native Americans out of MILLIONs, . But always remember that Career Trader has three employees, Probably cleaning up after his drooling. He truly is a POOerful man.

When you work hard and do everything you can in your power to get ahead, but the government (or should I say the rich *** the line so many of the pockets of government) comes in and takes away all the extras you have worked hard for, what do you do? They have so much money that they have stolen off the sweat of my back, what do I do. I what someone in their that will help me keep some of the sweat and let the the rich give a bit more of their sweat and maybe even give some of mine back to me.

will not vote for obama; your story almost brought tears to my eyes,------from laughing so hard. You make it sound as if the Repigs work harder than anyone else. The facts are they will steal. lie, step on everyones toes to get ahead. Look at Halliburton, Abramoff, Ken Lay , the fallacy of your story of the daughter in college is just that a story. The Repig Party is proven to be a bunch of thieves , not just hard working , honest American.. Most of the small owners of businesses I know hide their earning from the IRS , I wish the IRS would investigate most of them.

Again EASIER said when you are paying $3k to $5,000 in taxes now and under Obama YOU will pay $3k to $5,000 STILL. Me on the other hand this year expect to pay $140,000 in taxes. Under Obama it will go up to $160k to $200k not sure as he has said SOO many different things and even he doesn't know exactly what he can get through Congress.

By all means if YOU feel the way you do DONATE your money and time to CHARITIES which help

Put your MONEY where your MOUTH is. It's so EASY to ask me and other high income earners to pay for this while YOU pay nothing! You and other Dems are such criminal thieves.

It doesn't surprise me that you support the Republicans if you're actually a "career day trader".

Day trading does nothing to expand the economy. It's about greed, pure and simple. Real investors attempt to invest in companied that show growth potential, essentially purchasing a part of the company that they have faith in, in order to see it grow and see the value of that part of the company grow with it - day traders attempt to finesse sales around infinitesimal stock price differentials and reap large rewards through statistical changes, totally divorced from the fundamentals of investment and the things that actually make it a positive force for society.

But hey, I can't wait to hear how I "don't know anything" about investing and how you have a perfect right to go on thinking that the world owes you a living without you actually contributing anything positive to the economy. It's more or less what George Bush has done. I'm just waiting for the day when enough people in society get educated enough to realize what people like you are doing and throw the lot of your sorry asses out on the street.

And by the way, summer is completely, unequivocally right that Obama is not a Muslim. You just obviously don't understand what Islam is, or who Obama is. But from a "career day trader", it doesn't surprise me.

Oh, you must be joking. Under Reagan's trickle-down economic fiasco government debt and deficit grew to record heights, while the gap between rich and poor increased. His tax cuts ran up the debt from 700 billion to 3 trillion. Bush 1 had to agree to a tax increase to try and stop this egregious example of the republican borrow and spend rule. His was an illusion of prosperity created by writing bad checks that will now have to paid by our children. And how about laying off the ad hominem attacks. They only highlight your inability to engage in honest debate.
