If there aren't any jobs out there then why are there 571 ads on the dayton daily news classified site? And why can't they find anyone to work the census jobs for 12 dollars an hour + down in Cincy in the lower income neighborhoods? It simple, because we keep extending unemployement benefits longer than should be needed and pay people on welfare (who shouldn't even be on it) way to much thereby taking away the incentive to work.

Reintroducing "we can't afford it" to the federal government is exactly the point.

On what do you base "he isn't a good senator"?

because anyone who votes for two wars and a tax cut and medicare expansion on a credit card and then bitches about 10 billion in unemployment benefits not being paid for, while he wouldn't himself vote for pay-go (because he says it was attached to a bill that raised the debt ceiling, but he'll leave out his previous votes lead to the need to raise the ceiling) is an asshat

Straight from the liberal playbook - when you are unable to overcome the argument, attack your opponent with insults targeting their lack of compassion and their religion.

I would love to discuss the argument. Already have...at length....several times.

Start a thread Bulldog and I'll come right over.

stfu about this Robin Hood bs that you guys fantasize about...it's not happening. How have your taxes gone up this past year?

Wrong, DB. It's been happening for decades and decades. Are you denying it on principle, anger, or ignorance? (not a slam)

This is the first time I've ever read/seen/heard anybody claim that the Robin Hood scenario "not happening".
Ever.
