How much older will I have to get before I become a conservative?

[OohPooPahDoo]

Hahaha! You are so incredibly gullible! I was born in October of 1987, which is 25 years ago. To be precise I am 25 years 314 days old. There is no way I would be posting on a board like this at 16 years of age.

You simpleton. No wonder people think you are a troll, you make all these assumptions about people. As I have just now proven, you are wrong.

I'm "gullible" because you said I was 20 years older than you and 36-20 = 16 not 25?

OK.

Chill out OohPoo~you're perceived an old man to a younger generation.
Deal with it.

Not a problem.

Hey, I'm out guys... Have fun beating up one of the USMB's most ignorant bigot and racist. Try not to beat your wife over it tonight though Ompa~

 

[OohPooPahDoo]

My friend was still liberalk leaning before he came and stayed with me... We talked about politics and he mentioned his farther was leaving him "a giant fucking wad of cash" after he dies... I showed him the tax rates he would pay and he almost overnight became anti liberal.

So you keep ignorant and greedy people as friends. So what?

It's funny how it works, when you don't have much and even receive money from the Government it's great... the second you start to lose what is yours, no matter how you got it (legally, not stolen/drugs), you become conservative extremely quickly.

You mean the second you realize there's more in it for you to vote right wing, you do? That's called greed. Its not a positive quality.


I didn't pay shit in taxes when I was 20 and making minimum wage. I suppose now that I pay taxes - I should moan about how the 47% don't have to pay net taxes, even though I used to be one of them and even though the overwhelming majority of Americans will at some point in their lives be in the 47%.

Well I am out of this thread, OohPah, take your neg with grace. You say I'm 16 years old, but I'm wondering if you are the 16 year old.

You said I was a liberal 20 years older than you.

I'm 36.

When you figure out how I drew the conclusion that you were 16, you'll be ready for 3rd grade math.

Why would I beat my wife over you being a bigot?

 

[MeBelle]

LOL! So she gets a wad of cash she didn't even earn and all of a sudden thinks taxes are bad? What a selfless person!

I suppose now that my education is done and the wife and I are making decent money together and paying taxes, I could ignore the fact I didn't pay much in taxes when I was in my early 20's, and decide I want people in the same financial position I was in 15 years ago to have to pay more now so I can pay less now. That would be fucking greedy though, wouldn't it? Perhaps my wife could decide the same government subsidized education loans that put her through law school are no longer any good for America and should be tossed out with the Department of Education, denying today's students the same advantages she had - just so her and I could same some money on our tax bill. That would be greedy though, wouldn't it?

Define wad of cash please.

"sizeable inheritance"

Why not?

Anyhoo, Mum paid 34% of her windfall in taxes.

OMG, how horrible for her to have to endure that! 34% OH NO! Sorry but people who actually EARN their money are paying higher rates than that. Your mums was a lefty when the lefties were giving her tax advantages and

I'll tell you the rest of the story if you answer my questions.

I am not interested. There is no more "rest of the story". I think its pretty obvious what kind of person would be in favor of progressive taxation until the day it doesn't benefit them. Its not like your mom wasn't aware there was an inheritance tax - she thought it was fair until SHE had to pay it. So selfless and patriotic.

There's a good chance I will have to pay an inheritance tax one day. It doesn't bother me because its not my money to begin with. Maybe pops will blow it all on step-mom before he goes - that's his business I don't care I make my own money. If he has some leftover when he goes that's just bonus for me. If the government taxes it less than it would be taxed as income for that year (which it does in almost all cases) - even better. That's money I didn't have to earn that gets taxed less than money I did have to earn. Anyone who complains about that is truly a whiny baby

No need to be a drama Queen dude!

My Mum didn't have an issue with paying taxes so your theory of why she became a conservative in her mid 50's is moot.

Want to try again? I'll even give you a hint: DNA

Don't care.

Don't care.

If you didn't care you wouldn't have responded.

DNA, DNA, DNA...

Go ahead, abandon your thread...

How much older will I have to get before I become a conservative?

I've always been told by members of the right than when I grew up and faced the realities of life I'd become a conservative.

Between me and my wife we have one kid, two full time jobs, a mortgage, a rental unit, and two dogs, and our last dollar of income last year was taxed at 25%.


Sooo.. still waiting. Not conservative yet. The only effect I've noticed is that I kinda find hippies maybe a little annoying sometimes.

And as long as you remain non-judgmental and respect the right of the individual to realize self-determination absent interference from the state, you needn’t be concerned about becoming a conservative.

What do you mean "remain non-judgmental"?

It's clear he is.

The very basis of this thread is to be judgmental of conservatives.



Seriously, the left is attacking everything this country stands for. Who could be more judgmental and full of hate and bigotry than somebody like Ompa?

Because you seem to be so upset about all of this government sponsored racism and bigotry.

Uncle Sugar said you can be all the bigot you can be.

 

[healthmyths]

you have to grow a brain. which might be impossible, since it was washed away by libtard propaganda.

I don't have a brain? Wow. I didn't know that. Forgive me! My doctorate is in physics, not human physiology.

What "libtard propaganda" are you referring to exactly?

plus being taxed 25% as a couple puts you in a 47% range which makes you becoming a conservative economically impossible

That doesn't even make sense. What is "a 47% range"? Our top dollar is taxed at 25%, not 47%!

Wow!
I would NEVER admit I'd had a Piled Higher and Deeper degree especially when it comes to reading comprehension plus
research evidently is very lacking.

The concept of "47%" references ALL PEOPLE that pay no taxes on income.
Has nothing to do with tax bracket!

Oompha will never be confused with a rocket scientist.

I guess astrophysics is in the lower 47% of academia.

Seeing the attitudes displayed by conservatives on here in their responses...............I simply thank God that as I got older, I finally realized how full of shit the right wing movement is and told them to go fuck themselves.

Conservative, Tea Party ideology is for the scared, the arrogant, the ignorant and the hateful. You must have a mindset of "I got mine, so fuck you" to be amongst them.

I may not agree with a lot of what the left does and says either. But, I can deal with that. I could no longer deal with associating myself with the right wing, and I thank God that he led me in the direction to come to that conclusion.

the reason no one buys your bullshit Buc.....is because you told everyone here that at one time you were pretty much a Solid Conservative.....and now you come off as a pretty solid Liberal....if you left the Right and dont agree with much of the Left like you said....you would not care for both parties and would say so.....if i was a new poster here i would think you are Democrat just by what i see you posting,and i would have never guessed you were a Republican/Conservative.....just sayin....

yes some assholes are crappy religious stuck in the mud never looked at a gift horse in the mouth salt of the Earth hardly working depends wearing conservatives.

How exactly are you making that determination?

By watching you post, for example.

So you're 16 years old? That explains a lot.

I'm curious as to how you can divine my level of "personal responsibility" by reading messages on a message board. Can you tell me my future as well?

As a landlord, I'd find a credit report and job history to be a far more effective tool at determining someone's level of personal responsibility.

im a landlord to.....and a credit report and job history dont always tell the story about someone's level of personal responsibility.....does it?....
