STFU, FITS…

You’ve sat on your Stupid #$$ and bashed Romney…while Obama has TAXED the H#!! out of us (in effect) through astronomical GAS prices, healthcare is up $2,500 a year already…and that will double under Obama-Care…

It costs more to heat your house and feed your family as enegy and food prices have sky-rocketed under Obama….and he has no plan to combat the debacle…

On top of that…so many have lost their jobs…w/ little hope to get another one…

And Dumb@$$es like you sit around telling us there is NO differeence because that’s the ONLY chance to Hide The EFFIN mess you made by putting your lord-god Obama in control of our country…

Nice try…dipS#!*…but go try it on someone else…

Hey T;

I think the article pretty clearly states that the writer would like to see income tax rates lowered. How is this bad?

People like FITS have been on their knees in front of Obama (in a very plausibly deniable way) for 4 years….

Not to mention: We gave Sanford and FITS 8 years to make a change. FITS used his position to get a sports car and his boss cared more about Ridin’ dirty on the trail than doing his job…

To come up and act like he’s for lower taxes is laughable…kinda hard to take them seriously as an authority, considering their track record…

You people sucked at Obama…and now you are trying to act like you are above the mess you’ve fostered…

You’d have to be pretty stupid to fall for this (FITS) BULL-$#!*……

I’m not falling for FITS BS. I don’t like the Repulicrats or the Demlicans. I think they are all the scum of the earth. I think all the commie bastards should be placed in the middle of the mighty misora in the middle of the spring thaw.

I’m a little unclear as to what youre trying to accomplish here. You can’t truly believe that Mittenhead is any better than Obutthead. They both want Obamneycare. They both tell you straight to your face that they want to raise taxes. There platforms are as nearly identical as two peas in a pod.

Anyone that has read any of my posts, regardless of how they feel about me personally, can not deny that I am ultra conservative. You, in my opinion, are more interested in simply stirring the hornets nest. Frankly, I think your senseless as well (Common Senseless, that is). I think you post here under both pseudonyms just to make people riled up.

Not once have you given a simple answer to any question that anyone has posted. Just this once. Why is saying lower taxes a bad thing?

I don’t disupute your claim that FITS, and I will also say Pannity, Lib-baugh, Snortz and that stupid toothpick of a woman i can’t remember right now, are all LIBTARDS. The only difference between a Repulicrat and a Demlican is the Republicrat purports to spend all of my money, and yours, on National Defense. The Demlicans want to spend it on everything else.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz :|

Boring T. Answer a simple question. Isn’t that what both R’s and D’s want? Dialog. Or is it like my exwife. Its only reasonable if its the way she wants it?

Have a Great Day!! :)

Effectively, we have the highest income tax rate in the Southeast …

i guess Arkansas and North Carolna are not part of the Southeast anymore?

When you look at the TOTAL tax burden, state and local, SC ranks well below the US average and lower than most SE states.

Save it vic, you must know by now that “The Founding Editor” is a disciple of Mark Sanfraud, who as we all know, never allowed a fact to get in the way of a twisted statistic.

Arkansas isn’t normally considered part of the Southeast and in fact, no region is willing to claim it except under duress.

Thus proving my point – the only good things that came out of Arkansas were Sam Walton, Dizzy Dean, Forest Wood, John Grisham and diamonds.

Income tax rates are definitely important, but so are property tax rates, and sales taxes. So where does SC end up there?

So there are no income taxes in some states, FL for example. All that means is that revenue is raised by some other means. Some states have no property tax on autos. But renewing your license plate once a year costs plenty. Its the old 6 of 1 or half a dozen of another. Sic Willie believes his readers are too dumb to realize that.

The problem is FITS. Unlike us, he was IN power…given to him by the people…that his master lied to wrest….

He Squandered it…now he is singing the song like he is Clean and innocent, like us…

FITS is like all Crooked politicians…They talk what is popular to empower themselves as leaders..but they are Cowards when the attacks are directed toward them for their ‘would-be’ convictions…

Nothing personal: but FITS is just like those he antagonizes and hates…they are just in power now and he’s not…but they are all the same Failures and liars, as proven by their records….

GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS.

Will Folks was never in power and never a politician. He was a spokesman whose sole purpose was to BS with the media and filter the shit coming out of Mark Sanford’s mouth. And, apparently, to grant, um, exclusive interviews to the prettiest news ladies.

I never voted for him and never saw his name on a ballot. If you are going to rant and rave and otherwise act like a raving fucking lunatic, at least occasionally get your facts right.

The brackets should be fixed. You hit the top tax bracket if you make slightly over minimum wage. Of course, by reducing state income tax revenue, you have to raise taxes elsewhere, but if that is also done in a manner that spares the poorer folks, it is probably better.

Taxes can be lowered when spending is responsibly trimmed. Until then, they should be more properly balanced.

3% across the board cut to every department and agency would set us aright at the state level.

@ the colonel. More like about 75%

How can you be this naive? Who sends the checks for this regular topic?

These businesses are the ones shaking government down. They don’t care about piddly tax rate when they can get back virtually all of their upfront investment, plus who knows what, in “incentives”. Look at Boeing, virtually the only tax benefits that area is seeing from those incentives comes out of the workers’ pockets.

This is comparable to the illegal immigration issue. If you want to stop illegal immigration, call out and penalize the businesses that employ them. If you want to stop the incentives, go after the businesses doing the shakedown.

Oh, wait, business is our god, we can’t do that.

Location and culture and demographics and natural resource extraction clearly have nothing to do with job growth…..it’s just “taxes”.

“The only difference between a Repulicrat and a Demlican is the Republicrat purports to spend all of my money, and yours, on National Defense. The Demlicans want to spend it on everything else.”

Abso-fucking-lutely correct!
