Thread: Obama 2012?

Obama cannot really blame all of his lack of success on Congress like you pointed out Fove. He did have a majority in Congress and the Senate for the first 2 years and managed to do very little with it. And now he is blaming everything that doesnt get done on that Congress and failing to recognize the years in which they could do something and didnt.

Side note I do like how Obama wants to change how the government is run, but he is seriously lacking in every other department for me.

Also wrong, unless you ignore sales tax, real estate tax, gas tax, etc.




Companies aren't shifting jobs overseas because of our corporate tax rate.



Take a look at air and water quality from the period between the industrial revolution and the introduction of environmental regulations, and you'll see why this is a terrible idea.

They pay the majority of taxes.
I was speaking of federal income tax.

A high ass tax rate and high labor cost will run companies somewhere else. Not to mention Energy which is the highest in the united states. Heaven forbid we got that pipeline. Instead Canada is working out a deal with China. Way to go Obama.

The air & water was fine before companys started bailing on the U.S. because of the EPA among the other issues. Let's give another Green Energy company a shit load of money so they can fail and lay people off then lie about what happend. Green Energy sounds awesome but is not cost effective. The EPA is stupid. I will make an Obama example. If a dairy farmer had a milk spill he had to call and have someone over see the clean up. So yeah that made sense about like the left's reasoning thinking that raising taxes and handouts is the way to run this place. Look at Europe! How's that working out for them?

Your the one that said you couldn't control youself but you keep popping up in threads. You pm me that you wanted to have fun with the thread and still be friends afterwards, but your next post was a dick comment. So you can't control yourself. The original thread had to do with me and Kanati. You put yourself out there by posting. Your post got us bumped out of there. You sent your PM so I thought we could have fun with it but you can't control yourself like you said you couldn't. ***So just let it go and pop some pimples***

Obama isn't going to change anything. He wants to raise the taxes. Every idea the republicans throw at him he wants to add raising taxes. The funny thing is even Obama said now would be a bad time to raise them but yet he tries to slip it in with other bills he would like passed. Hence the reason Congress won't pass shit he sends them. Why give Obama more money to blow, hasn't he blown enough? Obama changing goverment?...He said that in his first campaign. The only changed I seen was more people on government handouts, less jobs and the highest US debt ever

WTF you serious? back away from the thread dude. The Personal income tax and the buisness corprate tax is totaly different. Crawl before you walk & pay attention at school and learn some current events

DING DING YOUR RIGHT!!! Hence we can't compete with the labor cost of other countries you have to find other ways to entice companys to come back here......LOWER TAXES......
