Rightwing stupidity

Yeah I know that's a redundant statement.

I was just online with a fool who hates the "Hollywood elites" for giving to campaigns to defeat Darrell Issa. He mentioned he'd love to raise taxes on these "Hollywood elites".
I reminded him that this tax scam cuts their taxes dramatically.

Stupid can't be fixed.

The guy said "I work hard for my money, why shouldn't I be allowed to enjoy a tax cut?".

I replied: "Because you're not the one benefiting from it. You know who does? Verizon. Walmart. Hobby Lobby. The mega billionaires and CEOs. You won't see a dime."

and sooner than anyone thought.

Rightwingers are by definition stupid people, it is why they are rightwingers. They will insist on not only killing themselves by giving their income to the rich but they will also demand we destroy the environment.

It is not important how much you pay in taxes.... it is how much you have left after paying them.

They want you that way. That's why they're not investing in our schools.

Never forget this telling quote attributed to kkkarl rove: "too much education is not necessarily a good thing." That's because he recognized that the more highly educated people are, the more they tend to be liberal and vote for Democrats.
