GOP runs Kansas into ground, another red welfare state.

[SuperDemocrat]

The trailer house manufactures will be happy as more people lose their houses and jobs the trailer parks will be filling up in Kansas

Working people are never included in their calculations, the wealthy get a tax cut, mission accomplished.

The irony that most jobs come from "the wealthy." So, what happens to "working people" when you take more of the "the wealthy" bastard's money? Do you know when I have less money, I hire fewer people? Boggles the mind, doesn't it? How the heck did that happen?

As for the phrase "working people," why am I going to be the one in the office today? What is it I'm going to be doing while the working people aren't working?

Don't try to sell trickle down to me, quit buying that bullshit years ago. The wealthy do not create jobs out of thin air out of the goodness of their heart. They capitalize on demand for goods and services no matter the tax structure.

More importantly, allowing more wealth to flow into the hands of the wealthy does not guarantee they will invest it into the local state economy....more likely in our globalized world they will find some foreign country to make money in and they'll invest their new found wealth into Asia or something. The state probably will never see the money they lose from those tax cuts for the rich.

Republicans need to stop thinking it's still the 1950's.

On one hand we are told that the wealthy will just keep it but on the other hand we are told they will invest it in foreign lands with cheap labor. I would like to know which one it is.

Kansas may furlough 7,000 state workers as tax-starved coffers run dry

Red states, just say thanks to us blue staters who float you through the hard times.

You're welcome.

More than 7,000 state employees in Kansas would be furloughed on Monday if state lawmakers cannot agree on a new annual budget by midnight on Saturday, state officials said on Friday.

The Kansas House and Senate are trying to make up an estimated $400 million revenue shortfall in the wake of tax cuts engineered by Republican Governor Sam Brownback in recent years.

Republicans can't do math.

it's fucking Kansas, what would of been, if they didn't try to break the mold? Illinois?

Detroit?

Saint Louis?

Baltimore?

God damn never remembered that state in 200 plus year's being rich with manufacturing jobs but the city of Detroit was and burned it to the ground

Yet you're wrong, who saw that coming? Anyway, you are a clown

Well that's a rather weak comeback.....no, I'm right. Your turn.

You could read my other posts too, dim wit

You could actually say a few words to debate my point - tax cuts do not guarantee wealthy people will invest their money into the state economy.

No more than allowing workers to work in a field that they choose is a guarantee that they will work at all or even in the fields that are needed. What guarantee that we have that that happens? There isn't one yet everyday employees go to work and the unemployed seek work. There is no law compelling then to work yet it happens.

Newsflash, money people earn belongs to them not the state allowing people to keep their own money they earned isn't a gift from government.

Newsflash.....read the constitution
It doesn't. Government has the responsibility to levy taxes

Not even Karl Marx went that far....

LOL, no, big guy. It says it has the authority to, that is not a responsibility to do it. This is why I keep pointing out your atrocious reading skills. They are really bad. Have you considered remedial reading?

I noticed after all these years Republicans kept talking about no new taxes and cutting taxes but really only for the rich now the roads are falling apart and they have to raise taxes on all of us why didn't they not lower taxes on the rich so they would have that money now to build the roads you see this is shifting the tax burden unto us when they lower the rich taxes that ultimately raises our taxes

Lol

 

[sealybobo]

This seems to be a problem in many states and is usually caused by a declining economy which leads to declining revenues. The fact this is happening in many states would suggest the economy is drying up. Have fun. I guess the good times are over with.

Kansas intentionaly dried up its revenue stream in a losing bet that it would lead to an economic windfall

what did all these Republicans think would happen when you cut all the rich people's taxes and all the corporate taxes of course you're going to go broke. now infrastructure needs repairing and they're coming to us for the money ultimately shifting the tax burden onto us. who hear things they should pay more so the Rich can pay less?

But the Republican base is happy, that is all that matters

Austerity? take it out on the poor

when you really pay attention and you know all the facts is there any doubt they did it on purpose trash the economy bankrupted companies send jobs overseas broke unions won elections bought low sold high stock markets up their wages are through the roof the gap between the rich and poor is never been bigger. they made out.

And they got to cut all the programs they hate. curious has any of those cuts lowered the debt one dime?

I mean it only makes sense billionaires and millionaires and corporations are not paying the same amount of taxes they did under Bill Clinton then more of that national debt that were looking at is shifted the burden is shifted on you and me is that not true?

I actually heard a great man Thom Hartmann say don't just roll back the Bush tax breaks but roll back the Reagan tax breaks to imagine the money we're not getting because of these Republicans scoundrels we're doing the building of the Rich who are now not paying their appropriate Cher

Yes, it is a government responsibility to raise revenue

You think the media isn't liberal? How left are you? Can you even walk upright?

these are the reasons I don't like the Clintons they triangulated with the Republicans too much he signed NAFTA which I think was inevitable but still and he signed the deregulation of the media act which I believe led to him being impeached because once they took the media / they never stop talking about Monica Lewinsky oh my god you right wingers are so dumb brainwashed

Damn, seriously? Wow, let's outlaw the Republican party

according to you guys the Republican Party is the best party for poor people middle class people and rich people according to you there shouldn't even be a Democratic Party

No, the Libertarian party is. Well, duh, dar, drool, you're not a Democrat, so you're a Republican.

It's the worst word you know, isn't it?

can you show me one society where libertarianism has ever worked the fact is when we deregulate too much we have great recession's and great depressions. the best run Society has a well regulated capitalist economic structure and libertarianism is too extreme sorry if it were if I were wrong more people would like it there's a reason only 1 percent of the voting population is libertarian libertarian is whack so what the Republicans are doing is implementing some of the Libertarians policies it's a way of pushing basically an agenda all libertarians are R the shadow wing of the Republican Party sorry don't like it

Have you ever tried america? It use to be a great place before the Obama dictatorship.

Just the term best run society is offensive because it implies management from above. I get managed at work and I resent it. It is kind of nice to leave work and not get managed but since society has to get managed I guess that means there is no real free space at all. That is so "liberal"

my boss leaves me alone because I'm the only one there who can do what I do I can't do what he does either so really you have a job AtTask a roll you bring value to a company if you have to be managed maybe you're not doing your job properly or maybe you work for a s***** conservative company

And that you think my arguments are weak shows why I just insult you idiots. You're a waste of time so just have to have fun

So, they aren't stealing enough from some to give it to others. Shameful.

Meanwhile, look at Detroit, Chicago, New Orleans and other purely Dem cities that have fallen under the weight of liberal programs. Liberals think robbing tax payers is the answer to everything. Too bad you guys don't understand how to prevent problems. You only know how to ruin things and blame others, then steal more money to "fix" the problems you guys created in the first place.

if we were smart we would do it like the Australians to about 97% of them show up to vote every two years what are we 50% show up in general elections and less in midterms pathetic

Australians are fined $20 for not voting.

We should offer people $20 to not vote

they accuse people of trying to SURPRESS voting no matter what. so I say, we give all those on (taxpayer/welfare assistance of any kind) $20 bucks and not allow them to vote. these Democrat dividers are going to bitch anyway as we see with shrillary

I say we just offer them $20 to not vote, most of the parasites will take it. One nice thing about parasites like sealy is they don't think things through. He knows that his voters would take the money, that's why he flipped out and started that hysterical shrieking when I suggested it

perfect example of why I'm a Democrat Democrats voting want people to vote want people take care want people to be engaged Republicans don't you have to be some kind of weirdo evil mean greedy person to be a Republican dick I think they have the selfish gene

Riiiiight Democrats bend over backwards to make sure military service men and womens votes are counted /level 10 sarcasm

In 2000, the Gore campaign sent letters to every county on how to use technicalities to toss military write in ballots
