Two percent doesn't sound like that much, the politicians know it, until it
comes out of the check. Already people are re-thinking their spending.
Another drag on the economy with a lot more to come.

Cut 10% across the board on every Govt Dept, it would knock out waste
alone, they wouldn't miss a beat in their performance.
Put the $$ back in our pocket book and then watch how the economy takes off.

I think the politicians would say........


Annotating Obama’s 2006 speech against boosting the debt limit - The Washington Post


why do we have "debt limits"..."debt ceilings" and big fights over them when they don't appear to limit or ceiling anything?????

I hear ya Scott. I should have said-
People forget we hire these Politicians, They are SUPPOSED to work for us.

But then again, evidently the people who voted (hired) them back,
must like higher taxes, more debt, bigger government and less freedom.

Outside the libs who like it that way,so many uinformed voters learning the hard way.

I've refrained long enough.And lets not forget my "A Promise?" thread.I need some Obama supporter here to explain why what you see below happened.

When your boy Obama "gave" us this payroll "taxcut" of 2% my weekly pay increased by $12.When he taketh away my pay decreased by $38.The ONLY variable here is the payroll tax cut and NOTHING else.

Where's my missing $26?You need to explain and explain it right as I am TIRED of having smoke blown up my a$$ by this administration.

I want an explanation.

you need to take that up with your payroll. take a paycheck where you only got $12 and calcualte the % of your pay and see what it is. Take a current paycheck and do the same thing. I get your frustration but here is the kicker - ITS YOUR PAYCHECK and you should understand where every cent goes. Spend some time with a calculator. I cant tell you big O doesnt waste your money once he gets it, but there is no funny business going on while withholding or taking out your SS/Medicare. its a formula your payroll provider is running.
