Your point is what? That being rich makes you better?
I don't get it.

Perhaps it is that very wealth which makes them appear to have such guilty consciouses. They seem to be ashamed of success and believe that all success comes at the expense of someone else. This is evidenced by their constant attacks against anything and anyone they perceive as successful from a monetary standpoint. Liberals constantly favor more social programs designed supposedly to help the poor, but in reality keep them down. Liberals do not favor personal responsibility, but instead take the tactic of you cannot help yourself so we must do it for you. This to me is the greatest disservice to the poor ever committed. Their programs do this at the expense of the middle class, not the rich. Being rich is not the greatest benefit to the economy. The greatest benefit to the economy is lower taxes at every level, an idea which liberals do not and have never favored. It is proved economic theory that lowering taxes spurs spending and growth. As a result greater taxes revenues are generated. Lastly, you will have to pardon me if I cannot take anyone seriously who cannot make a point without committing slander in the process (referencing the repubtards statement). As to the STFU statement, thanks for again reminding us that many liberals do not favor free speech for all, but rather only those they deem worthy to speak at all.

Yes, I have a few questions.
If they are so rich, why don't they spend some of it on the programs that my taxes subsidize?
Why don't they give up their SUV's and gas guzzling luxury cars to save some of that oil that Dems say Bush went to Iraq for?
Why do they call the President stupid, when some of the richest Dems didn't even finish high school?
And why should anyone have to STFU?
This is a forum. If all you had were other dems to talk to - wouldn't you get bored after awhile?

Nice try...the Democrats do everything they can to fight the natural course of the economy by trying to redistribute the wealth in a way that is supposed to make the lower classes feel a benefit.
The funny thing is, the lower cl;asses will actually spend LESS taxes under a Republican admin. than they will a Democrat's.....but as long as "the rich" are getting it socked to them, they don't care....it's the sour grapes that's the most important thing to them.
Frankly, the Liberals are ***-backwards on this topic.

Why is richer better? Do you discriminate against people on the basis of income? If so, you are a hypocrite.

Then why do Dems always claim to be the oppressed poor?
