Have we ever had a different way succeed?


Yes. In fact, we almost ALWAYS have a different way succeed.

Go look at who is actually paying the income taxes. This idea that
the middle class supports everyone else simply isn't supported by the
facts.

Give me an example of a state with the power to print its own money
where a different way has succeeded.

That certainly was how the Clinton budget was balanced.

A different way than "high employment of the tax paying middle class"?
The United States is a fine example.

Most people would say the United States does not have a balanced
budget. But you are free to your own opinion.

Go look at who pays the Federal income taxes. It's mostly NOT "the
tax paying middle class".

Hogwash!

So please explain how that budget was balanced. Maybe we should try
that policy.

Romney deliberately amended his taxes to pay a bit extra so that we
wouldn't notice the lie in his "never below 13%" statement. Several
people have pointed out that he can re-amend it after November to put
the charity back in.

Are you suggesting that our redneck politicians can't be trusted to do
the right thing?

Here it seems we're continually being told that Muslims are supposedly
the untrustworthy kind. Go figure.

Romney is also on record in saying that anybody who pays more taxes
than he has to doesn't deserve to be president.
