when you point out to them that not one single high paying job comes from a welfare recipient. And that you need a vibrant and heath business and corporate base to create the jobs that feed American families with the living wage they claim are running overseas? What say you?

Now your talking about Capitalism...
Libs dont understand the concept.
Better talk about whether or not Britany Spears was wearing panties to her last social engagement instead.
That way they dont get mad that your talking about something they have no understanding of....they may feel left out and "Disenfrachised!!

The real problem is that they do not understand the purpose of a business.
A person starts a business for the sole purpose of making that person money.
One does not start a business thinking, "With this, I can solve world hunger.".
Hence the saying
"It's just business"

Liberal democrats get angry because anger is a natural response when a persons delusions are challenged by truth and reality.

I'm not exactly sure what you are trying to point out with your connection to weflare and high paying jobs. Obviously a person who runs a successful business with enough income generated to pay others a high salary would not qualify to receive welfare. If you are suggesting that no person on welfare ever became rich themselves and started a successful company then you are flat out wrong. Off the top of my head I remember the story of Paul Mitchell who was once poor and homeless and then created a successful multi-million dollar business selling hair care products. I'm sure there are many others.
But concerning the rather simplistic statements involving the need for a vibrant business base to support our economy, there is no argument there. The question is how do we get there and should the tax burden be shifted to the middle class or to the rich. That is where we differ.

They do not want to face the truth. Say ostrich syndrome.
They get mad when you use logic to destroy their feelings. Liberals live in feelings. They feel that someone is poor, then the government must take from the haves to give to the poor.
Liberals also believe in victimhood. They want to believe when someone is wronged, it is someone else deliberately causing it. For example, instead of blaming our burdensome tax structure for forcing companies to look for cheaper labor, they blame someone else for being greedy and bringing jobs overseas

Ah, get a frigging grip and give me a percentage of high paying jobs vs low paying jobs. And which ones are making business owners rich? I don't mind a vibrant and healthy base. It just sucks that capitalism is running rampant over the lower class to make the rich richer. So take your Reaganomics and put them where the moon can't shine on them.

Democrats tend to raise taxes on corporations and then give them loopholes such as paying for furthering their employees education which they can then write-off. It helps people to get educated to be a better employee and possibly promoted as well as keeping their taxes down. There are other tax incentives as well.
There have been far more corporate bankruptcies in the last 7 years than there were during the Clinton administration. I'm not really sure why that is but I don't think it has to do with taxes. Some companies are using their windfall on the taxes to move off shore. Many jobs are being lost to foreign countries. At some point, it has been predicted for almost 40 years that the U.S. will become a service economy. That is coming true.
The vast majority of Americans have not seen economic improvements in their own lives over the last few years. You can look at statistics, but if you actually talk to people, you will know that is true. I don't need to watch the news to realize that.

Please read, I said corrupt corporations. I also take offense to those who fraud the welfare system. I do not mind helping those who are truly in need. I also do not mind tax breaks for corporation doing it the right way. If you are talking trickle down , that in itself is a joke.

Because the poor and ones who feel they are the down trodden are the libs power base....they MUST be kept poor and feeling they have no hope...if the ones who feel this way would all at once open their eyes and realize the trick thats been played on them by the libs and toughened up and lifted THEMSELVES out of poverty, the libs would be flat out of a job...the poor are just useful props to the lib power base, and its easier for the poor to just allow this to happen then to do something about their own plight...sad but true...that is why liberalism is a cancer to this nation and MUST BE STOPPED!!!

They get mad because much of their rhetoric is taken almost directly from Das Kapital, in which the capitalists TAKE wealth instead of CREATING wealth. To point out the simple illogic of their class warfare ideology makes them, if they're honest, doubt themselves. And once you let doubt get the slightest hold on you then it can quickly swell until you're doubting EVERYTHING you believe in. So they use the flamethrower of "righteous" rage to burn away those shreds of doubt. Otherwise they'd have to do some serious introspection and admit that they've been duped.
