    what difference does it make whether he has a brain or not? You will vote for Hillary no matter what, no brain needed.

  2. Yes that is correct. Hillary is very smart and has the right policy stances and the experience. Although she is too hawkish for my tastes.

    really? that's how you want to fund the military and social security and medicare? A penny at a time from a consumption tax? Tax the poor, is that your last idea? Doesn't anybody think big anymore? Tax the rich, they are the ones who can afford to pay for the government we voted for. And then, you just may find you are a hell of a lot more richer than you thought.

    Brother Loyek, I can appreciate some of your postings, but in this case YOU HAVE NO FREAKIN' IDEA WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.

  5. Yup, the progressive tax rates need to be more progressive. Tax the rich more. The wealth gap has become way too large.

    I'm simply talking about a consumption tax, or a federal sales tax. I hate it, and I hate the very idea of anyone who supports it. Picking up dimes in front of a steam roller just to get even with a few drug dealers. Meanwhile making little old ladies living on social security pay a tax if they want to buy their grandchildren a Christmas gift.

    The people aren't taxed too little, the government spends too much....Ronald Wilson Reagan.

    Brother Loyek, if I ask you an extremely simple "yes or no" question, will you answer it?

    or better yet, impose a flat tax, and really hit the rich. Can you even imagine if Warren Buffet had to pay the same rate his secretary pays? Or better yet, confiscate all of Warren Buffets assets and what the heck throw in Bill Gates just for good measure. What is that? About 200 billion? How long would that keep the government we have voted for open? I hope at least a week, that's how long it will take me to go view Mount Rushmore before they shut it down after all the rich run out of money.
