First, as I do from time to time, I have to apologize. Not for my content, if you don't like it you can go fuck yourself, but for my lack of content. I have been working like a dog for the past 2 weeks and have not had time to get this blogfest rolling properly.
On to the shenanigans!
Obama Phone!
This sums up the presidency of Barack Hussein Obama, he gives people shit and they continue to vote for him. What else can be said? This is fucking ridiculous! If you want to know my view of welfare, feel free to check out my post badmiton / welfare cheating...really? Butthurt warning
It's people with this mentality that are ruining our country...they have found out that they don't have to do a damn thing, except vote for more socialism (obama). I would love to give these people a job, just so they know how much it sucks to have to pay taxes so other people can get a fucking free cell phone. (aka: getting kicked in the dick)
Actually for the lazy ones, I am still offering my services - "Get kicked in the dick free of charge here!"
Update: AngryMike has stepped up to the plate to offer a free ass kicking to round out the package!
I don't know who said it, but there is a quote that I am going to butcher...it goes something like this:
"Why is is called greed to want to keep money you have earned, but not to take money you have not?"

Romney Gaffe!!
By now, I am sure you have heard about Romney's quote about how 47% of Americans will vote for Obama because they are on the gubmnet dole.
"
Holy Shit!! Stop the fucking presses! If this surprises you, then I have some great oceanfront real estate in Kentucky I could sell you (it comes with a free kick in the junk).
The liberals are running with this like they just stole it and the second hand liberals are lead blocking!!!
This is Obama's plan, get as many people as possible on the gubment dime so they can't fend for themselves and continue to vote me into power. The other guy is going to steal all your free money... that money is rightfully yours!
Other people worked, produced something, and sacrificed their time and taxes to make this country great enough that we can afford to have the "right" to free money for free loaders.
I am glad that he said this, its true! I am also a bit butthurt about the fact that it took this long for this to come out. Its not like this is news.
If you feel that he is wrong for saying this, I am starting a line to the right for a free kick in the junk (that's what it feels like to pay taxes).
Yes I am wearing my state approved dick kicking shoes...Safety first!
"
There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what.
All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it.
That that’s an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what.
…These are people who pay no income tax."

Bar Stool Economics
Haven't seen this one in a while, so I borrowed it from SHTF Plan
I am a big fan of a flat tax. That is the only way "everyone pays their fair share".
Suppose that every day, ten men go out for a beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100.
If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this:
The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.
The fifth would pay $1.00
The sixth would pay $3.00
The seventh would pay $7.00
The eighth would pay $12.00
The ninth would pay $18.00
The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.00
So that’s what they decided to do. The men drank in the bar every day and seemed quite happy with arraignment, until one day, the owner threw them a curve.
“Since you are all such good customers, he said, I’m going to reduce the cost of your daily beer by $20.00.
“Drinks for the ten men now cost just $80.00
The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes so the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free. But what about the other six men – the paying customers? How could they divide the $ 20 windfall so that everyone would get there “fair share?” They realized that $ 20.00 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody’s share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer. So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man’s bill by roughly the same amount, and he proceeded to work out the amounts each should pay!
And so:
The fifth man like the first four, now paid nothing ( 100% savings).
The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33% savings).
The seventh now pay $5 instead of $7 (28% savings).
The eighth now paid $9 instead of 12 (25% savings).
The ninth now paid 14 instead of 18 (22% savings).
The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% savings).
Each of the six was better off than before! And the first four continued to drink for free. But once outside the restaurant, the men began to compare their savings.
“I only got a dollar out of the $20“ declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man, “but he got $10!”
“Yeah, that’s right, shouted the seventh man. “why should he get $10 back when I got only two? The wealthy get all the breaks!”
“Wait a minute,” yelled the first four men in union. “ We didn’t I get anything at all. The system exploits the poor!”
The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.
The next night the tenth man didn’t show up for drinks, so the nine sat down and had beers without him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn’t have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill!
And that, boys and girls, journalist and college professors, is how our tax system works. The people who pay the highest taxes get the most benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up anymore. In fact, they might start drinking overseas where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier.
For those who understand, no explanation is needed.

Its a spending problem, not a revenue problem
CBO says US to Fall off fiscal cliff
The CBO is saying that if we let the "Bush era tax cuts" expire, we will enter another recession. The issue is not revenue, the issue is spending. We can't continue the trend of deficit spending that we have been on for the last 20 years. We live in a great country, but as a country we can't give everyone a free ride.
If we continue the tax cuts permanently it will "cost" the US roughly 3.3 trillion over 10 years. I use "cost", because it is not costing the government anything, its not "costing" the government anything. The government doesn't make money, they take money, they are "letting" people keep the money that they earned. 3.3 trillion over 10 years is a drop in the bucket, we are currently at 15.7 trillion (not over 10 years, that is now).
We need to freeze government spending at current levels as a start, not automatic increase next year. We need to elect people into our government that understand what it takes to live within you means.
