Anyone else crying.......

So as long as everyone else is chirping off, Ill throw in my .02c. Disclaimer-I usually tend to think conservatively on most issues but Rhomas, your comments are ignorant and disgraceful. You need your own island where your contamination doesnt infect anyone else.
Mom and Dad are both on the high end of lower class workers. I am a doctor. Studied and paid for 9 years of school myself. I made a ton of money last year both in practice and in the stock market. I am pro-gun, pro-hunting, pro-choice, pro-legal immigration, believe the govt should take in tax dollars for civil services and they should use those monies RESPONSIBLY. It is patriotic to pay taxes. We all have a duty to pay for the roads we drive on, the police, firefighters, etc etc. I date a 1st generation, 100% Mexican girl who is also a Dr. Her parents are legal immigrants of this country and are also upper end of the lower class. I wholeheartedly support legal immigration. I do not however support the idea that illegal immigrants should be able to vote, receive tax payer funded healthcare or welfare benefits. Contribute legally to society or politely leave. Last year, we paid a combined $175,000 in income taxes. When the govt finds ways to grossly misuse funds, I have a problem. When I get told by the govt that I gotta give a little more, I have a problem. I do enough. I've done my part. I do way more than my part actually. Could I do more and pay more?? Sure. Tell me why I should though? If I had a checking balance of $1000, I would not spend $3000. The govt sees to it that they find a way to overspend in the name of compromise bc there is no personal responsibility w the presidency AND/OR the Congress. It's not sustainable. I went to school and for the next 30 years, Im going to pay the school debt back and I'll work and pay taxes and yet, Im going to continue to have to work harder, see more patients and earn less because Obamacare says so. We already have socialized medicine. Its called Medicare and mdeicaid and they cant even run those programs correctly. Yet of the money that is spent in the Medicare/Medicaid program, only 9% actually is paid to Dr's. I believe in helping those who CANT help themselves. NOT those who WONT help themselves. Get a job. Maybe it wont be the position you had when we were in a thriving economy. Maybe you'll have to swallow your pride and accept a lower position. Sobeit. Have some pride in the fact that you are contributing to the country instead of being a burden on it. The constitution says I have the right to own a weapon and doesn't discriminate what type of weapon that is. I cant say I agree w all Republican doctrine but when you add them all up, I agree with a few more Rep ideals than Dem ideals. So I pick the candidate that best embodies those ideals. Romeny wasnt a perfect match for me, but he was a better fit for what I want than Obama. Somewhere earlier in the post it was mentioned that the deadlock in the govt was the solution. I think there is a ton of merit to that statement. Nothing gets fixed but more importantly nothing gets broken. Someone else also said that Reps want to send all of our jobs overseas. I think you prob better stop being a hypocrite and analyze your retirement portfolio and see what companies you own as well. The CEO is a slave to you, the shareholder so at the end of the day we are all guilty for the export of those jobs. We each have direct ties to the companies who are shipping jobs overseas. It sucks. It sucks that our neighbors, family and friends lose those jobs but it is never going to change as long as people here wont work for 1/15th of what they are accustomed to earning. If I was CEO of a large manufacturing company and the question was survival of my company or move overseas, I'd be gone in a heartbeat. We need a smaller, business friendly govt, welfare and tax reform, less regulation so people can get back to doing business. The govt doesn't know how to run my life, my religion, my business, my family better than I do. The next 4 years are going to be a very bumpy challenging time for this country. The divisions in this country are appalling and growing deeper every day. The Reps vs the Dems, the rich vs the poor, the X vs Z, etc. Hopefully, we can all work together to better our positions and prosper for a better future.

I guess they don't teach the use of paragraphs in med school.

Yes why didn't you write a proper 5 paragraph essay for us to read?! :cool: is that because he actually wrote a non argumentative statement of how he felt and It didn't really bash the dems enough to cause a major fuss you have to find something else to pick on?

Nope, we usually hire people to write down what we say.

Diem, I sifted all the way through it, and I agree 100% with what you've said, but if your appalled at what the two of you paid in taxes as singles, wait until you marry her and becomes DINKS. That will really make you sick.

I should've known better to get back on here today. All this political BS is $*)Q!#@$ irritating! Thats' why I haven't been on here in over a month! I was hoping we could get back to HUNT TALK! Guess I was wrong yesterday as well as today!
 
I already pay about $40k in taxes every year...I can't wait for that to go up! Too bad our so-called leaders in politics couldn't figure out a way to just get rid of wasteful government spending first! It is funny that we have elected a lawyer to fix an economical problem and his answer is to spend more money and people actually believe this is true! In the next 4 years, he will continue his class warfare and make everyone think that the rich are the evil-doers of our country and they should increase their tax burden even further. I just wish we could take a logical approach to fiscal conservatism. Should be 4 more years of the same, Obama's way or no way! And then the repubs will get blamed for not compromising...oh well! The world would be a better place if we turned off our damn tv's and just enjoyed our lives instead of listening to politics! I'm going hunting this weekend!
 
C'mon, you usually do better than that.

You try reading his post and then tell me that I am wrong.

I didn't say a word about the content or validity of his argument, just that if you want people to read what you post it helps if you make it reader friendly.


As for the election, when I woke up the sun still came up in the East, my wife and kids were still healthy, my dog was happy to see me and my life went on pretty much the same as has every day regardless of who won the election.

In reality nothing changed, the people voted for the exact same leaders we have had for the past 4 years. Nobody can claim a mandate, nobody is going to get everything they want.

PS. I am heading out to here tomorrow morning so I could care less about politics right now.

How am I picking on anybody? Find a place I have not bashed both party's on an equal basis.

So being able to put ones thoughts down in the proper form is now looked down upon?

Some people need to grow a thicker skin. geesh.

PS. I really don't care, post away, see you later

Hint it is a video you can click on it.

Dang........I wanna go, I wanna go!
 
I was waiting for the shot and the sky to turn dark. What a spot to round up some goose jerky.

I don't know why everyone is pissing and moaning about politics. I am under the impression that the world is supposed to end next month anyway. Don't spend time thinking about freaking politicians.

I agree with you as we'll. My wife and I spent a decade in night school while working full time to earn advanced degrees. The amount of taxes we pay now is crazy.
