Comments by "Chris Nilsson" (@GenerationX1984) on "Obama to Propose Tax Hikes on Rich, Tax Breaks for Middle Class" video.

  1. A year ago, Obama proposed raising the minimum wage to $10.10 an hour and that didn't pass, either. The Republican Congress is just a big wall keeping failed Bush-style fiscal policies in place. All so that the elite can control half of the world's wealth. We should clap sarcastically at the idea of the rich getting richer while the middle class struggles. Oh, yay. So happy for them.

  2. Republicans are against it. Of course. Reminder that the GOP could win in 2016, so stop being lazy and vote!

  3. Why is it that people can't see that the 1% are manipulative fucks who control half the world's wealth? The middle class buys more products because middle class people outnumber the 1% at least 90 to 1 for fucks sake! The middle class runs the economy by consuming. The wealthy control a higher percentage of wealth today than 10 years ago. Oh, yeah. They're creating jobs all right. Jobs have been booming since 2005, haven't they? :P Jesus Christ!

  4. Can I get a point across without being rude? No, I can't. I'm sick of gullible people and stupid people who think that the wealthy will create jobs with more tax breaks. The tax burden merely gets shifted to the rest of us if the wealthy don't pay their fair share and on top of that the wealthy are richer now than at any time in human history. Where are the jobs? By your logic, if the wealthy get wealthier jobs are created. OK. They're wealthier now than ever before, so where are the jobs? Job creators, my ass! They'll keep getting wealthier as they always have and there STILL... still won't be any jobs! Just a much poorer middle class who can't afford to buy anything anymore and a Great Depression Era economy.

  5. He's a paid shill just like the lot of these politicians. Probably. Let's not assume too much, but...

  6. ***** Because anything that doesn't put more money into the pockets of greedy elitists at the expense of the common man is socialist.

  7. Fox News' definition of socialism is: 'Any system that doesn't make the wealthy and the elite wealthier and more powerful. A subconscious longing for lords and peasants in an age of chivalry. A modern feudal society where Wall Street is never questioned or challenged.' Fox News said it. Not me. They may as well have. LOL. So ridiculous.

  8. It will never pass the medieval feudal lords who run Congress. Did I say medieval feudal lords? I meant fiscal conservatives. I get those two confused for obvious reasons.
