Reading On The Toilet

Nancy Pelosi

I’m starting a new category today called Flush It Down!  After reading this article on the democrat’s horrible plan to have the “rich” pay for the health care of everyone else, I thought it would be appropriate to have a category for things and ideas that should be “flushed down the toilet”.

I do want to provide a disclaimer first though: Just because I’m bashing the democrats doesn’t mean I think the republicans would be a better choice.  60% of republicans believe that humans were created in their present form by god…10,000 years ago!  Granted, 38% of democrats believe the same thing, which is appalling.  But that’s a pretty big difference.  The republican war on science is downright scary.  It’s news when one of them is actually for science.  They want to  teach creationism in schools, ban stem cell research, etc.  That alone should be enough to stop any reasonable person from voting republican…if military, environmental, and economic polices are not enough.

(If you haven’t read The God Delusion yet, get it now.)

It’s no wonder that religious fundamentalists and uneducated people are more likely to vote republican, whereas the higher your education is the less likely you are to be religious and the more likely you are to vote for a democrat.

With that out of the way though, we can move back to the idiot democrats.  This new plan to “tax the rich” an additional 1% for anyone making over $280,000 (even more if you make over 400K, and even more still if you make over 800K) is not only unfair, it’s also a slap in the face.  These bastards need to quit spending tax payer money on vacations and cut a whole lot of pork before they decide to slap extra taxes on people who earn more than others.  Let’s flush all this down the toilet and move to a flat tax for all.  Below a certain amount of income you pay no taxes, then there’s a flat tax rate that everyone pays.  It would be fair, people making more money would pay more taxes, and you wouldn’t get penalized for doing better than average.
