NOPE! just expressing my opinion, how come you don't like seeing the other side of any given issue?
-
I do like seeing the other side, it's just yours have become repetitive and tired. Next couple posts of yours will be the same just in different words. I get it you hate Obama, I get it ? seriously. -

SEE! you don't get it - I don't HATE Mister Obama - I don't like his ideology or his agenda for America -- I like Integrity and that has nothing to do with ones ethnicity. Another issue that really irks me is when some can hide behind their skin color and call others racist just for not agreeing with them.

Thinking - since you're a thinker type - ponder this.
There’s no race card to pull when a candidate is white, so it can only be about policies and political views. And what if a black person objects to the policies of President Obama? He’s sold out. He’s an Oreo — black on the outside but white on the inside — or an Uncle Tom. These types of turncoat blacks are only being used by the white establishment. Racism is the liberal narrative. They don’t have anything else to go on.

YO! mister thinker - collective salvation is NOT good for America & it will destroy America (aka) Transform America.
Small, constitutionally sound government protects individual rights and provides the right amount of protection for all citizens. A small government respects private property which is an essential part of life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness. Everything you do with your life, the wealth you gain, the achievements, etc, are all your property. You owe nothing to anyone, but generally your going to be a good citizen, because the others will be good citizens back. This idea that we owe the government is total nonsense. there would be no government without the citizens. There would be no society without individuals first.

considering that what you're saying can be applied to any president, i am assuming you rate him as more pompous/arrogant than any other president because he's blackYes! & NO - President Obama has this knack i.e.,the ability not 'to be' responsible for his actions in any certain terms. IMO there's absolutely NO humility about this pompous/arrogant individual. -

Do you say that because many businesses would probably hire more people if the federal minimum wage was eliminated?
Yup, especially small businesses.
I hear you and I kind of agree, but my only worry is that many businesses would take advantage of an elimination of minimum wage and begin paying slave wages. Once a society has too many people being paid slave wages, than social chaos will become the order of the day. ESPECIALLY in a nation with a high cost of living like America. If America had a low cost of living such as most places in the Caribbean, this idea would better work.
Yeah but what's the alternative? Watch more jobs go overseas to countries with far less regulatory policies. Better people are making slave wages then not working at all. Rising inflation also makes "slave wages" somewhat of a subjective term anyway.
I get what you're saying, the alternative DOES suck. I don't want jobs going overseas but we have to protect a certain standard of living that exists here, you don't want that going away. Look at how weak unions are now, and look at how few benefits most companies offer now. All that is bad enough, do we really want to sink lower? If housing and rent was cheaper though, a lack of a minimum wage would work, like in many 3rd world nations around the globe. But eliminating the minimum wage would be disastrous for the already poor in this nation, since housing in this nation is pretty expensive for the avg person. Homeless shelters are full these days, and rent isn't getting any cheaper. I get what you're saying though, if housing had some kind of price controls, which I want, than I would support your idea full wholeheartedly. -

YO! kingblaze,calm down, maybe you should just go outside and burn one? Taxing the so-called super rich isn't gonna bring in additional revenues - just like that far fetched theory of legalizing marijuana will bring in so much additional monies as well --- NO it won't and the down side is the harm done to our youth - especially the black youth within America - you're such a idiot & you talk out of both sides of your mouth....from your mommies/daddies basement? & you boast about your job & then whine constantly about the system...YOU'RE A DAMN WHINING HYPOCRITE and so DAMN UNGRATEFUL - people like you disgust me.

Since when do I boast about my job lol....and yeah I did lose my cool but damn you have no new ideas at all. Obama has been a disappointment and many out there agree, but you don't seem to have any ideas of your own.
Would you cut down on programs to save money? Okay what kinds?? Which ones?
Don't do a Rick Perry moment on me and name two programs, than forget to name the other one. -

Obama might have an obsession with his direction for America, but um, doesn't every President have that? I dislike many of Obama's policies but I at least I have ideas to fix the economy, you just keep repeating yourself over and over again. What would YOU do differently? You never say what LOL -
This is gettin straight comical lmao.

It's not up to me - I've expressed my opinions and disdain for this man and his radical ideology. If those who support Obama really believe this is the right direction for America?then Obama will win & the decline/transformation of America will begin all over again - this President WILL DESTROY AMERICA - & the fear of criticizing this man's policies will not longer exist - I still believe this election is rigged & Eric Holder is doing everything possible to make sure of that - dontcha just love HIS Department of injustice!! ?...LMAO!!

this from the link above -
When Barack Obama told “Joe the Plumber” that he wanted to “spread the wealth around,” he wasn’t just using a figure of speech.
Since the 2008 campaign, Stanley Kurtz has established himself as one of Barack Obama’s most effective and well-informed critics. He was the first to expose the extent of Obama’s ties to radicals such as Bill Ayers and ACORN.
Now Kurtz reveals new evidence that the administration’s talk about helping the middle class is essentially a smoke screen. Behind the scenes, plans are under way for a serious push toward wealth redistribution, with the suburban middle class—not the so-called one percent—bearing the brunt of it.
Why haven’t we heard more about policies that will lead to redistribution? In part, of course, because controversies over Obamacare, unemployment, and the exploding budget deficit have taken the media spotlight. But the main reason, according to Kurtz, is that Obama doesn’t want to tip his hand about his second term. He knows that his plans will alienate the moderate swing voters who hold the key to his reelection.
