Joe Biden and Jimmy Hoffa call Republicans ‘barbarians’ and ‘son of a bitches’
The NEW CIVILITY. Where are the condemnations???
in America the producer was protected by government in the enjoyment of the fruits of his labors. That protection of his property explains the glorious material progress already recounted. Howard Buffett
“Today’s situation is the result of an alarming and devious governmental intervention in the economic affairs of the nation for objectives not contemplated by the men who wrote the Constitution. Historically, in America the producer was protected by government in the enjoyment of the fruits of his labors. That protection of his property explains the glorious material progress already recounted. The last 40 years have seen a gigantic expansion of political power over economic affairs by the federal government. This change is linked by many scholars to the passage of the income tax law in 1913.” Howard Buffett, December 1956, Freeman
Warren Buffett, hypocrite – again
The NY Post writes:
This one’s truly, uh … rich: Billionaire Warren Buffett says folks like him should have to pay more taxes — but it turns out his firm, Berkshire Hathaway, hasn’t paid what it’s already owed for years. That’s right: As Americans for Limited Government President Bill Wilson notes, the company openly admits that it owes back taxes since as long ago as 2002. “We anticipate that we will resolve all adjustments proposed by the US Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for the 2002 through 2004 tax years … within the next 12 months,” the firm’s annual report says. It also cites outstanding tax issues for 2005 through 2009.
Obvious question: If Buffett really thinks he and his “mega-rich friends” should pay higher taxes, why doesn’t his firm fork over what it already owes undercurrent rates?

A question: what is the “fair share” percentage? What kind of definition of “fair” means that some people pay a higher percentage than others? It is the same definition included in Animal Farm where all animals are equal, just some animals are more equal than others.

The Hypocrite Warren Buffett Says Rich should pay more
” It’s time for our government to get serious about shared sacrifice.” – Warren Buffett
As has been Buffett’s refrain for years, he wants higher taxes. But during the years of calling for higher taxes, Buffett has continually refused to put his money where is mouth is and pay more himself. In fact, Buffett uses shelters and taxes to avoid paying more taxes himself. He and Bill Gates have set up charitable foundations to avoid paying taxes on their fortunes.
Hypocrite? Of course. If you truly think you should be paying more, do not shelter tens of billions of dollars from taxes by using “loopholes” (a term used represent something legal, voted on by Congress to manipulate the uninformed). Lead by example.
How about this proposal: a wealth tax on all billionaires who voted for President Obama at 30% of their net worth. Also applied to any tax loopholes used to shelter their billions.
Fairness is equality, not equality in the animal farm sense where some are more equal than others.

Whenever destroyers appear among men, they start by destroying money, for money is men’s protection and the base of a moral existence Ayn Rand
Run for your life from any man who tells you that money is evil. That sentence is the leper’s bell of an approaching looter. So long as men live together on earth and need means to deal with one another—their only substitute, if they abandon money, is the muzzle of a gun…. When force is the standard, the murderer wins over the pickpocket. And then that society vanishes, in a spread of ruins and slaughter…. Watch money. Money is the barometer of a society’s virtue. …Whenever destroyers appear among men, they start by destroying money, for money is men’s protection and the base of a moral existence. Destroyers seize gold and leave to its owners a counterfeit pile of paper. This kills all objective standards and delivers men into the arbitrary power of an arbitrary setter of values. Gold was an objective value, an equivalent of wealth produced. Paper is a mortgage on wealth that does not exist, backed by a gun aimed at those who are expected to produce it. Paper is a check drawn by legal looters upon an account which is not theirs: upon the virtue of the victims. Watch for the day when it becomes, marked: ‘Account overdrawn.’ – Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
You save the whole house or it will all burn down. We either save this country or we do not. And to save it, we must seek solutions. Marco Rubio
“I would love nothing more than compromise. But I would say to you that compromise that’s not a solution is a waste of time. If my house was on fire, I can’t compromise about which part of the house I’m going to save. You save the whole house or it will all burn down. We either save this country or we do not. And to save it, we must seek solutions.”
Senator Marco Rubio, U.S. Senate Floor Speech, July 30, 2011

When you see that money is flowing to those who deal not in goods, but in favors; when you see that men get rich more easily by graft than by work, …you may know that your society is doomed-Ayn Rand
When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing;
when you see that money is flowing to those who deal not in goods, but in favors; when you see that men
get rich more easily by graft than by work, and your laws no longer protect you against them, but protect
them against you…you may know that your society is doomed. ~ Ayn Rand – From: “Atlas Shrugged”
“targets unauthorized immigrants”
‘Alabama’s new immigration law targets unauthorized immigrants, those who don’t have federal alien registration or other proof of legal presence in the United States.’ – AL.com
So is the new term for bank robbers “unauthorized withdrawers” and murders “unauthorized killings”? What about burglars, are they “unauthorized house guests”?
Biden -They have acted like terrorists
“We have negotiated with terrorists. This small group of terrorists have made it impossible to spend any money.” Mike Doyle (D-PA)
“They have acted like terrorists.” Republican leaders have “guns to their heads” Vice President Biden, August 1, 2011
So much for “The New Civility” that was promised in January. Where is the outrage for mentioning “gun” in relation to a public figure? Perhaps “The New Civility” only applied to one side?
