I just don't understand why the super super rich (wall street execs and their ilk) NEED tax breaks (it's been proven time and again that the trickle down bullshit doesn't work), thereby plunging us FAR deeper into debt when we can't provide healthcare to the people who DUG BODIES OUT OF THE RUBBLE OF THE WTC, because it costs too much?! WTF IS THAT ABOUT?? It's simply disgusting.
It's war on poor people and it's gonna be SO much worse. Class warfare is coming to a city near you. Cut taxes on rich people and raise food and gas prices on people that can't afford it. Just wait. See what happens.

 No, the 9/11 Rescue Workers plan that passed wasn't 6.2 billion, it was lowered to 4.1 billion to pass. Geeshus, Dell, pick up a dog-damn newspaper once a week.

Stop with the View and Huffington as your newspapers and please burn those Jimmy Carter books. You're a sucker and always will be.... Thumbs down to the Creation Museum that provides your home State jobs, revenue and taxes (granted while receiving a tax break) Meanwhile thumbs up to the Fed Subsidized, non-taxpaying muslim Community Center built on ground zero? (what I'd call sacred USA ground) SUCKER!

Not meaning for this to be about ME as I am so often accused - I'm just offering facts and figures, based on personal experience. My husband served 4-1/2 years active duty in the USMC - two tours in Nam. His top pay as an E/4 over 4 (years) was $412/month. Hardly anything to get rich on - even back then. He then went into the Reserves and served for 22 years - one weekend a month and 2 weeks in the Summer in Panama; eventually back in the USA. Twice during his reserve duty, he was called back to active duty. His employers had his job waiting for him upon his return, but he didn't get paid by them while he was gone, and the amount of money the government paid him while he served active duty was about 1/3 of his regular wages. His top yearly income in the Reserves was $4,800 with a bit more for the two years in which he was called back to active duty. His retirement income now is $574/month - and he doesn't have to pay for supplement insurance to Medicare which would cost us about $350/month if we had to buy supplement insurance on our own. However, we still have to pay for Medicare benefits. If anyone wants to call those benefits obscene for putting in 26-1/2 years service with the military, sobeit. If anyone wants to say he doesn't deserve what he earned, sobeit. If you say people who paid into unemployment deserve unemployment benefits, then the same holds true for people who paid into social security, medicare, and served in the military. They are not entitlements. With regard to unemployment, I'd say that anyone searching for a job for xx number of months without success should consider retraining for another type career. And, sometimes taking a job at lesser pay and proving your worth to your employer with past experience and knowledge that you're bringing to the plate is a good shot at quick advancement and a higher salary. 75% of success in the workplace is just showing up. A local used car dealership had a sign up for a number of weeks - "Car detailer wanted - $20/hour - will train." Our friend's son was on unemployment and supposedly looking for work, and we told him about it. His response - "That's hard labor. I still have a lot of time left on unemployment." He's 20-years old and collecting less than $200 wk, living home with mom and dad and not paying a nickle toward his keep. Parents may be pretty much to blame for his selfish/shiftless attitude. Not saying this is the norm for people on unemployment, but when people hear responses like this - it's bound to get them riled.
