Jim Bunning Repeatedly Blocks Unemployment Benefits Extension, Tells Dem 'Tough Shit'

[Jamaicanman]

Here is what warren buffett, the third richest man in the world thinks about your george bush theories............


Speaking at a $4,600-a-seat fundraiser in New York who is worth an estimated $52 billion (£26 billion), said: “The 400 of us [here] pay a lower part of our income in taxes than our receptionists do, or our cleaning ladies, for that matter. If you’re in the luckiest 1 per cent of humanity, you owe it to the rest of humanity to think about the other 99 per cent.”

Mr Buffett said that he was taxed at 17.7 per cent on the $46 million he made last year, without trying to avoid paying higher taxes, while his secretary, who earned $60,000, was taxed at 30 per cent. Mr Buffett told his audience, which included John Mack, the chairman of Morgan Stanley, and Alan Patricof, the founder of the US branch of Apax Partners, that US government policy had accentuated a disparity of wealth that hurt the economy by stifling opportunity and motivation.

Somehow you guys dont understand this concept.


But without the rich people you talk about no one else would ever become rich.......right

If he is that outraged, he can always pay more if he wants right? And how many people does he employ that pay taxes? It's just sick that liberals seem to have no problem spending other people's money.

What % of the federal tax bill does the top 10% pay? That's a real concept "you guys" can't comprehend.

[musclemann]

The ironic thing about all of this is I'll wager that neither one of you make more than 150,000 a year but on here sticking up for millionaires

[10DimeBry]

Exactly how long do you want unemployment to go on for? Forever????

How bout get a fuckin job!!!!!! I see places hiring all the time. I travel for work and I see help wanted signs daily in my travels......walmart,McDonalds,kmart,home depot, lowes,Mobil,macy's and on and on all hiring. Just cause the job isnt ideal doesnt mean you shouldnt work. I'd work shoveling shit before i'd live off the govt tit. Stop being lazy!!!!! Get some self pride!!!! The govt isnt the answer.

yea im making shit up.

It's like arguing w/ a 1st grader. So you are saying these two statements mean the same thing?

1. Without wealthy people our economy would collapse.

2. But without the rich people you talk about no one else would ever become rich.......right

Seriously?

As pathetically obvious as it should be, I guess I need to explain the difference. In my statement (#1), I'm not talking about the actual current set of wealthy people (Gates, Buffet, etc). I'm talking about wealthy people in general, regardless of whether it was the wealthy people from the year 1800 or the year 2089. The point is that wealthy people spend money on products that create jobs. People in poverty don't purchase stuff, so they don't help the economy move.

My statement says nothing remotely close to .....withouth rich people you talk about no else would ever become rich.

Value investor known worldwide? yes
Thousands flock to see the Oracle of Omaha yearly give his state of BRK (A and B) speech. You should go sometime.

Never said he didn't know s hit, just wouldn't label him an economist. I wonder if he thinks of himself as an economist or an investor?

You still don't get it. Dude, my ONLY point was that wealthy people make the economy go around, it DOES NOT matter who they are, where they come from, white, black, orange, gay, straight, it DOES NOT matter.

The point is that poor people don't contribute to the economy. That's the only point. That's the only point. The only point was that poor people don't contribute. The point is the rich people make the economy go around. The only point is that poor people don't contribute to the economy. If a rich person becomes poor then they no longer contribute. If a poor person becomes rich then they start contributing. If a poor person becomes rich then they do contribute to the economy. If a rich person become broken then guess what, they don't contribute any more. Holy shit dude, is it that hard to understand?
