And thus we have the crux of why Palestine is $#@!ed and nobody is willing to help them. Anything short of dropping nukes on the Mossad is considered blatant Israeli favoritism by default. :pado:

Good luck there trying to build any support.
Maybe these administrations are right and we should fund Al Qaeda. Perhaps we should give them suitcase nukes with tracking devices. This would be the best scenario for all -- the "pseudo-supported glass parking lot operation."

All that matters is unemployement and gas prices? Easy choice then.



Government jobs for everyone and gas subsidies up the ass! Debt? Abolish the bankers and deny to pay any debt owed to China upon threat of nuclear retaliation if they insist otherwise!

Of course, some think Obama is actually remotely socialist.

I found a quite interesting piece on Top Tax Rates by the Congressional Research Service.

http://graphics8.nytimes.com/news/business/0915taxesandeconomy.pdf

"..Analysis of such data suggests the reduction in the top tax
rates have had little association with saving, investment, or productivity growth. However, the top
tax rate reductions appear to be associated with the increasing concentration of income at the top
of the income distribution. The share of income accruing to the top 0.1% of U.S. families
increased from 4.2% in 1945 to 12.3% by 2007 before falling to 9.2% due to the 2007-2009
recession. The evidence does not suggest necessarily a relationship between tax policy with
regard to the top tax rates and the size of the economic pie, but there may be a relationship to how
the economic pie is sliced."

Hmm, Congressional Research Service. Lets see. The Congress benefits from tax revenue, they fund the Congressional Research Service. And what do they purport? The above.

Big fuucking surprise that is.

People quoting government sources are just as bad as the politicians.
