Is it me or is the Democratic Party falling apart?

Thats funny being that the bush era tax cuts are the biggest waste of all. Giving rich people tax cuts is a waste because they dont spend it. If you cut taxes or give a stimulus to the lower and middle class, they are much more likely to spend the money. And the whole, "The rich create jobs" arguement is complete bullshit, They dont create jobs, they outsource, lay off, eliminate and destroy jobs to save a buck and make their stock go up a quarter of a point. If they were to incorperate the Obama Tax cycle it would still save them money on their first $250,000 a year. after the $250k their taxes would still be less than what it was under Regan (your massiah).
There is no reason that those tax cuts should be extended as it does absolutely no good. The hilarious part is that the rich seem to have all of the republican sheep doing their fighting for them. Ive never seen so many low income low educated people fighting for a group of people that dont give two shits about them. Do you really think that the guys at the top really want you to take a peice of their pie? Noooo, they just tell the drones, "If our taxes go up we wont be able to hire" HA. no thanks, sorry not drinkin that koolaid.
Honestly, their should be a law (at least on this board) that says, if you dont make over $250,000 individual salary, then you dont get to say anything about that tax bracket, or the tax breaks for that bracket.
I can guarantee 99% of you on this board dont make nearly that much.

One way or another this country needs more money. Wether it be higher taxes, or federalize an industry.

I never said it'll save the farm. You asked "where else can the government get money". Reducing waste in the system, and running a more lean government, is "somewhere else" the government can increase it's bank account. If my home was being foreclosed, like you said I'd not only look at increasing my income, but also reducing waste (not spending on things that could be done without). I'm in a sense agreeing with you, yet you are trying to argue with me. I don't get it.

Are you trying to point out some sort of irony in my statement? I didn't bring up Bush, dem/rep parties, or anything of that nature in my statement. My statement was pretty simple. It was said "where else can the government get money" and I said "by reducing waste and running a leaner government". Pretty simple statement, completely free of any name calling or party affiliation. Why do you immidiately jump to a conclusion that I'm picking a side, and my comment is directed as some sort of attack against you?

But that's what liberals do, they attack you when their argument fails.

Look at Chris Matthews' only rebuttal against Chris Christie is that he's fat.

I loved Neil Cavuto's reply back against Chris Matthews.
