Shifting the burden to you


Gil Smart says a local decision mirrors a broader dynamic: to attract jobs, we’re slashing taxes for business. For you? Not so much.

    @skoockum Trust I have the same problems too! But with these riots in Europe maybe it won’t happen. Only time will tell. . . .

    @psychokillercrab I have two basic problems. 1) Most of the time, no one seems to agree with me, regardless of the facts. 2) Except when the situation is obviously beyond redemption, and all the sudden everybody is jumping on the “pessimistic” bandwagon. . but by then it’s way too fucking late.

    @skoockum so true

    @megamarsvin as a show of good faith in our fearless leaders and their politicians they run we can all build thatch roof huts with dirt floors too- always good to appease the gods

    @megamarsvin The Cons love nothing more than the taste of fine leather on the foot of someone very rich and powerful.

    Serfdom. That’s right where we’re headed.

    Sounds like taxing without the same amount of representation for regular people.

    I like this guy. . .

    @FreedumbFighter28 he’s a known troll

    @megamarsvin Or live out their Industrial Revolution fantasies.

    Gil, what would it take to get more of these videos from you?

  13. cne08September 24, 2011 at 11:26 am

    @ecwaufisxtreme. Get a life.

    I think what conservatives are trying to say is America needs to get off it’s high horse, start cowtowing to business owners again. Work for $10 a week, reinstate child labor. How else are you going to compete with India and China eh?

  15. booleySeptember 24, 2011 at 12:54 pm

    @ecwaufisxtreme That’s the problem with the internets.

    People say dumb things and I just can’t tell if they are a POE or actually serious.

    But ok, I’ll play along.

    If Palin couldn’t handle being governor, why would anyone think she could be president?

  16. ecwaufisxtremeSeptember 24, 2011 at 1:16 pm

    @booley
    Palin will NOT quit her terms. She WILL have 2 terms as our GREATEST POTUS!

  17. booleySeptember 24, 2011 at 1:29 pm

    @ecwaufisxtreme will that be before or after she quits halfway through her first term?

  18. hellshade2September 24, 2011 at 1:51 pm

    so they are only going to make about 100 new jobs but they need big tax breaks to do it. i smell bullshit

  19. FreedumbFighter28September 24, 2011 at 2:26 pm

    @ecwaufisxtreme Thats a joke right?

  20. ecwaufisxtremeSeptember 24, 2011 at 2:46 pm

    This is a clear sign that Sarah Palin will be our next President for she will keep taxes low for everybody and insure that nobody, rich, poor, middle class and corporation takes the burden of taxes. Palin will completely clean up and purify our tax code, making it really fair and low for everybody! She will completely wipe our deficits and debt down to zero and create greater surpluses than Clinton!

  21. timfmrSeptember 24, 2011 at 3:11 pm

    outrage!

  22. Boomer1949September 24, 2011 at 3:26 pm

    This goes on in my little neck of the woods too. There is a mediocre department store that has been in this area forever and they threaten every year to move if they don’t get a tax break. the City they are in is dieing a slow and agonizing death anyway, no one shops there but yet year after year they get the tax break and year after year our school taxes climb and climb.
