Free political speech is not free if the government can dictate when and where you exercise it. That's not history, it's just mumbo-jumbo that fails to take into account the easy corruption of free speech in the form of campaign finance by wealthy entities, as happened in the latter half of the 1800s and early 1900s which necessitated the Tillman Act passed under Roosevelt's administration after Roosevelt himself was accused of receiving large sums of cash from fat cat bigwigs in exchange for favors. in 2010. *This is going to lead to political shambles, just like repealing the Glass Steagall Act a decade ago allowed Wall St. to run amock and get the country in the mess it's in today. So you blame Bill Clinton for the mess the country is in today? Go on, do go on. You're short on history with that too, huh? Ultimately if he had exercised his veto over it, it still would've been overriden by the Republican-dominated Congress, so he knew there was no point in not signing it. Recognizing it was a no-win situation for him, he nevertheless still did what he could to ensure certain aspects of the Act were made a bit more palatable for him to be able to sign it. |

One significant measure of wealth, particularly for the average American, is personal savings. Since Reagan took over and pushed through Reaganomics, personal savings have steadily declined over the last 3 decades. Looking at personal savings of the wealthy is pointless since they have a variety of financial back-up plans always in action, from varied investments to numerous personal assets to obscene salaries and bonuses, all beyond that which is attainable by the average American, so measuring their wealth is better measured in dollar income thresholds. http://www.motherjones.com/files/ima...al_Savings.jpg http://www.uscentrist.org/platform/docs/irs-490px.gif Interesting, isn't it, the correlation between the decline of the average American and the steep rise of the top .1% over the same period of time since Reagan? And that's for *point* 1%, not 1%. That's how few have benefited so greatly under the trickle-down theory, only it seems to have kind of trickled up at everybody else's expense. |

Today who is for limited govt the conservative or the liberal? Your liberal/conservative comparison takes the comparison out of context, I'm just putting it back into context ... Don't try to hide behind the liberal label when it was the Democrats that supported all the above you list ... Classical liberals dealt with relationships of government and the governed. We revolted because that relationship between us and the government was "broken" Everyone liberal or conservative has a relationship with government ... its the nature of man and govt. Anytime there is a revolution one can say the relationship is 'broken' ... the American revolution was no different. The government(s) of Europe were generally princes and royalty, the idea of "less government" cannot be applied to the present rationale of the idiot loonytarians and conservatives--it's used as a rhetorical propaganda. Are you saying our US Constituton had an expiration date on it? ... '"less govt" cannot be applied to the present rational..." The Framers really didn't mean what they wrote in the US Constitution about a limited govt??? ... "The powers not delegated to the US by the Constitution nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively " ... this is untrue??? ... read Art I sect 8 of the US Constitution. Our Founders took (as an experiment) the notion that "rights" are not given by princes and kings (or despots)---but from a "higher power"--and instituted a "rule of law"--that certainly was setting a lot of "government in motion" It set NO 'lot of '"government in motion''' ... The Federal Govt role/powers were limited and enumerated by the Constitution ... States were suppose to do the most of the 'every day' governing of the people. the "less government" isn't applicable because early 18th century was rural, agrarian, and "government" was small out of lack of need. The influx of millions of immigrants, the industrial revolution, westward expansion finally created a mess because of "less government" (or worse, government siding with wealth and industry) The US Constitution CAN be changed ... don't give me that 'rule of law' when the Constitution's limited powers are ignored. One of the reasons for that "broken" relationship you write of above, between the American colonist and Great Britian was "He (King George) has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our People, and eat out their substance." ... sounds like what people are complaining about today doesn't it? ... classical liberal thought of the Framers isn't it? So its the conservatives and not todays liberals that are on the side of the Framers and many of todays Americans. Many Americans today have some of the same grievances as listed in the Dec of Ind. Your last sentence mixed "party label" and "ideology" (again) to associate or infer something that isn't relevant Of course its revelant ... todays liberal has nothing in common with the Framers of the US Constitution ... todays liberal wants to centralize power in the hands of the Fed Govt and have the people completely dependent. ... healthcare, education, retirement etc from and dependent on the Fed Govt. .... centralized power to control the people. The conservative is for smaller govt and protection of individual rights. Today its the liberals (Democrats) that are for centralized govt control while the Republicans (conservatives) are for a more limited govt and less control. To the extent that anyone still believes in the Constitution its the conservatives. Conservative policy/ideology can adopted by any group---but the policy, not the label it adopts is relevant True, and the conservative believes in smaller and limited govt. ... The major cause of most of our woes was "opposition" to change, from the support of the crown, the support of slavery, to the opposition to most all of the policy that made us great. The above was classical liberalism and has nothing to do with todays liberalism. Breaking away from Great Britian and freeing slaves was classical liberalism which was for individual freedom. Today's liberal is for central govt control ... the govt gives you healthcare, education, retirement, gives tax money to favored businesses etc. ... central control and not individual freedom. You can call yourself a liberal, progressive or whatever else you want to call yourself but in the end you are a Democrat who believes in collectivist govt. control. |

Look at the number of Congresspersons who served.

Proven fact TOo true The "they pay most of the taxes" is a false claim, misdirection, and totally stupid way of trying to deflect the core principles From the Wall Street Journal: "Notably, however, the share of taxes paid by the top 1% has kept climbing this decade -- to 39.4% in 2005, from 37.4% in 2000. The share paid by the top 5% has increased even more rapidly. In other words, despite the tax reductions of 2001 and 2003, the rich saw their share of taxes paid rise at a faster rate than their share of income. WSJ?! that is owned by ... Who?! *how most millionaires get away with paying little or no taxes. Most of the wealthy incorporate their personal assets and properties into a small paper C-corps. All their houses, cars and investments are under these style companies that have allot of tax instruments. (really meant for a company likes "Joe's Plumbing") The board members, (the millionaire's self and families) draw a salary and as with any company, write this off as a expense. All the millionaire's REAL income from his real bread winning company is moved into this small paper c-corp shelter by having this c-corp hired as a consulting company by the big bread-winning company thus sheltering his income from personal taxes. The millionaire (and family, as stated above) is payed a small salary to have some spending cabbage (like a $4k/month allowance) but since the sum is low, there is only a little income that is actually taxed. The amortization of the c-corp assets can now also be written off. House workers such as gardeners, cooks and maids are expenses that are once again written off. There are many angles this can take. Specially, with over-sea investments! (nudge nudge wink wink) This is just a small peak at how the rich get by with paying so little if any taxes. Buffet admits that he pays less tax then his receptionist!!! Remember, "stupid people pay taxes!" -Leona Helmsley |
