Vote Obama: Bite the Hand That Feeds You

Corporate taxes have to remain competitive or the rich people buying all our beer will just leave. It's not a new concept.

There is a reason the bar down the street is cheaper, it needs fucking gimmick to attract customers. Go down to the other bar, the women may be hotter but they won't put out and the beer may be cheaper but its warm, and guess what ... they don't clean the bathrooms. And don't forget the whole point of this drinking venture is to drink with your nine other friends; you can go down the street, but they don't like that bar ... its for elitist pricks with nothing more than the bottom line on the their mind.

Or in Ball State terms, you are comparing Scotty's to Dill Street; sure Scotty's is more expensive, but its a hell of a lot better and you don't have to stand in a puddle of piss.

The bulk of American businesses are in the position they are in because they are in America and do business with American businesses. You act like taxes are the only expense a business might incur. If money was the absolute bottom line then New York City would be absolutely vacant. Why pay tens of millions of dollars a year to lease out a few floors of an office building in NY when a corporation can build an office building in some bump fuck country town for the same price? Access.

The most ignorant post regarding globalisation ever.

Why move to New York in the early 1900s when a company could stay in the "Good bar" of London? Why move to Hong Kong or Singapore in the 2000s when a company could stay in the "Good bar" New York?

Why isn't Rome still the center of civilization?

Honestly, think about these things. You seem to think that America is the end all, be all, but really America got her glory from being the "cheap bar" not the "good bar". She was the land of opportunity, freedom, and low taxation. When all the big business was in Europe, people came to America for opportunity. And people will leave America for the same reason!

So do you. If this is the apparent "natural progression", why are you fighting so hard to keep it the way it is? Is London a complete shit-hole since everybody moved to America in the early 1900's, or merely just not the economic stronghold of the world? I mean shit, YOU moved back...

They're both state colleges, dickweed.

There's a difference between arrogantly assuming that the US will always be the best economy in the world and admitting that it's your home: it's where your family is and it's where real Football is played.

Just because I don't want America to go in the shitter doesn't mean that I think that it's impervious to losing its status. America can be ruined, but it will still be my home.

Also I don't want to keep it the way it is. I want it to go back to what it used to be, a free society where success is encouraged and the succesful are not labeled as bad people.

So instead of wanting to help family and friends, you'll want to build a death-ray or a freeze-ray or some sort of other dangerous ray. Do you see where I'm going with this? Obama wants to help prevent people from being evil. It's quite obvious.

ninja hit the nail on the head, which, while an obvious overexaggeration, little truth in every jest. motherfucker works for wal-mart, for gods sake. thats like the most evil corporation in the world!

Two questions to help me understand where you're coming from, Blonde:

How is Wal-Mart evil?

How are rich people bad people?

[Repugnant Abomination]

How is UB not a douchebag?

[Ironic Mustache]

For the record, I love everything Wal Mart stands for.

[ninjaface]

Also for the record, I am no longer working for Wal-Mart.

Wal-Mart sucks, but I don't think they are evil. Sure it's depressing as fuck every time you ever go into a Wal-Mart. But that's because most people that work there are scum or are just pathetic. By the same token, some people that work there are between serious jobs or are just a bit down on their luck and/or trying to make some extra money. It's sort of hard for me to believe that Wal-Mart is evil. I can only speak from my personal experience, but I didn't sense any "evil" at Sam's Club and I would assume, if Wal-Mart is indeed evil, they would go ahead and rock the devil horns at Sam's as well. I went to that website you posted and clicked a few links and read a few things very briefly. Some of the shit on there can be explained somewhat easily. I don't feel like looking any further into wakeupwalmart, but if you want to grab a few quotes out of it and toss them my way, I'd oblige you with any response I might have.

I don't think America is the end all be all. America got her glory from being one of the only fucking bars left standing after WWII. Could we go the way of Rome? Sure. Are we there yet? Not quite. Until China is willing to sack up we are still one of the major cornerstones of the world economic markets.

[Ugly Bastard]

Hehe... nice photoshop.

I didn't suspect you'd have any real answers to those questions.

[BigDongedHoe]

This is the first I read this thread and I had no idea Nubblies was full of so many whiny liberal bitches. When did the American dream die? When did living for liberty going out and making something out of yourself in a country where the opportunity to do so is everywhere die? What most people on here stand for is being lazy doing absolutely nothing with yourself and having our government tax the shit out of the people who do so they can live. So you live in an inner city and have less opportunity, guess what? to fucking bad opportunity is still there so take advantage of it.

I'm so sick of American's not standing up for things that America was built on. A country where people can come and make something of themselves. Why tax CEO's and big fortune500 companies? Those people all work harder in one month then most of us will work in one year. CEO's are paid because they work there ass off for there money, why take it?

Barrack Obama is such a sack of shit, if/when he's elected I can't wait for four years so his tenure will be over and we can move on from the money grubbing bastard. If anything this election has proved that there is no shortage of stupidity in America. I had a person the other day send me a message that said "Obama 08'!" only to find out they had no idea Bill's had to pass through the house and senate before they could be approved and that both of those were heavy democratic leans.

It's stereotypical but it's true in most instances; Republicans are usually hard working higher educated Americans where as democrats are less educated trailer park dumbasses.

[Heaven Can Wait]

You think that the work a CEO does is worth the wage they get?
One guy is worth thousands of times more than a say.. Farmer? It's a shit load more than that in disposable income.
Please move to Ireland.

[St. Anky]

I would have to agree BDH, in a lot of ways stereotypes play an important role in american politics.

Lets look at the "hard working" part of your post...

-How many of these "hard working" republicans do you know that work two jobs?

-Do their own lawn work (just pointing to the "hard working" part)

-Hire "educated" individuals to do the shit work none of the "educated" ones want to do.

Point by point, I wouldn't call that hard working. If anything, republicans seem to hire democrats to do the "hard working" for them. Is that smart? Sure. Does that create jobs? Sure. But don't dare say that education has a direct effect on someone's ability to work hard.

here's a joke for you.

Three Democrats are outside on their hands and knees eating grass in the middle of a pasture. Suddenly a black limousine pulls up, and the passenger (a wealthy republican) rolls down the window and calls out to the democrats, "hey guys, what are you doing out there?"

The Democrats answer, "we're eating grass, we dont have any money to eat anything else."

The man in the car answers, "why dont you guys come with me? I have plenty of food for all of you at my house. Get in!"

The democrats answe, "sure, we'll come, but we can't just leave all our families. They need to be fed as well."

The man answers, "hell, bring em all! I'll take as many as I can fit in my limo."

The democrats gather their families and they all drive off to the republican's home.
On the way, a wife of one of the democrats questions the old man,
"sir, I thank you for your kindess, but are you SURE that there's enough food to feed all of us here?"

The old man laughs, "of course! At my house, the grass is almost two feet high!"

(The beauty of this joke is that it only works one way)

Explain every single democrat on this board, pls.


edit: also, to reiterate anky's post, lol@ republicans thinking that working hard = apparently doesn't include manual labor, ever. Fuck those retards, right!? they should have went to college instead of working on the farm to produce our food, fixing our cars, and making/fixing our clothes and appliances! What a bunch of poor redneck idiots!


also, most white trash/rednecks I know are republican.

[BigDongedHoe]

I personally know a CEO of a moderate sized company and yes he has worked harder than you, I, or probably anyone else on this board will have or will ever work.

A CEO of a big company works many times harder than a person who works two jobs flipping burgers and then stocking shelves overnight, they are low income jobs for a reason. In most instances CEOs have earned every penny of their money as well. Most companies donate thousands-millions of dollars every year at their own disposal. They don't need to have that money taxed for more government and our President's own prerogatives. Rarely is anything given and even when it is it came from hardwork somewhere down the line, that is commendable and should be kept by those who earned it.

I didn't say all democrats are trailer park trash but here is an example. I was watching CNN last night and they talked about how all policeman are on alert in big cities such as Detroit, Chicago, etc. They are worrying about rioting/random acts of violence if Obama were to lose the election, go figure.
