Truth: your taxes are about to literally skyrocket in 2013

Posted on by

Economics 101Courtesy of both the Demorats — for the demand — and the Republicans, for lack of a spine.

Mitch McConnell, the blithering idiot, said “the tax issue is finished.”  (Full transcript here.)

Uh, no — you moron — no, it’s not.

It’s barely started.

My first paycheck of the year just got lowered by $200 via additional taxes.  I get paid bi-weekly, so at this point I’m initially losing a minimum of $400 a month.  So far.  The month is young.

That translates to: I’ve just initially lost the equivalent of one car payment a month.  So my chance of purchasing another car?  ZERO.

From “Face The Nation” this past Sunday, The NanceMeister weighs in:

Did you listen closely?  McConnell thinks he’s won.  And Pelosi baldly states that the Demorats are out for “tax reform” and “increased revenue.”

SCHIEFFER: Do you then agree with the Republican leader in the Senate, Mr. McConnell, who says we’re done now with the taxing side of it; now we have to concentrate on spending? Is that done now?

PELOSI: No.

SCHIEFFER: Is the revenue side of it taken care of yet?

PELOSI: No, no, it is not. I mean, the president had said originally he wanted $1.6 trillion in revenue. He took it down to $1.2 as a compromise. In this legislation we had $620 billion, very significant, high-end tax — changing the high-end tax rate to 39.6 percent. But that is not enough on the revenue side. We’ve already agreed to $1 trillion in spending cuts, over $1 trillion in spending cuts.

SCHIEFFER: So what are you talking about there? Are you talking about more taxes?

PELOSI: We’re talking about looking at the tax code, putting everything on the table from the standpoint of closing loopholes — and we know that we can do that — special subsidies for big oil, for example, $38 billion right there. But again, not to take things in isolation, just to say, OK, well, how much more revenue can we get as we go forward?

SCHIEFFER: Are you then saying to the upper classes, get ready; you’re going to have to pay some more; this is not the end of it?

PELOSI: Well, I’m saying that’s not off the table.

SCHIEFFER: That’s not off the table?

PELOSI: That’s not off the table. But not in terms of tax rates but in terms of other considerations.

SCHIEFFER: You’re talking about deductions and other things.

PELOSI: And the rest.

$800 billion dollars already acquired in taxes.  The Demorats want another TRILLION dollars in taxes this year.  Where?  From YOUR pocket.  Americans, to the thoughts of the Demorats, are still insufficiently taxed.

Am I a mega-millionaire?  Hardly.  I’m “middle class.”  And — thanks to Mr Obama and Demorats — my ass is already on fire with the initial additional taxes.  The precise strata, Mr Obama, that you swore wouldn’t be affected.  You damned LIAR.

Even CNBC says the tax code may be the “most progressive since 1979.”  Hello?  Jimmy Carter?  Anyone?  Bueller?

Even Obama supporters find themselves “shocked” and “angry” at the new tax increases.

Yes indeed.  That’s how stupid are Obama supporters.

You mean he actually wants Cloward-Piven?  He actually wants taxes to skyrocket?

So: how much did YOU lose on your first paycheck of the year?

Why I’m quitting the GOP

Posted on by

Or perhaps I should be more realistic: the GOP actually quit me.

Last night Boehner and the GOP caved.  Again.  Boehner also put off a vote for aid for victims of Sandy.  And further, here’s how stupid your US Senate was on Tuesday:

The U.S. Senate voted 89-8 to approve legislation to avoid the fiscal cliff despite having only 3 minutes to read the 154-page bill and budget score.

Multiple Senate sources have confirmed to CNSNews.com that senators received the bill at approximately 1:36 AM on Jan. 1, 2013 – a mere three minutes before they voted to approve it at 1:39 AM.

Correct.  Mr Obama’s “transparency” once more: three minutes to read a bill before a demanded vote.

And then Republicans voted.

I shake my head.  How insane is all of this?  No one knows of this abortion.  And no one seems to much care.  The DEM/MSM ignores all of it, purposely.  The American Media Maggots.

Perhaps I’ll have to craft a new logo for the DEM/MSM/AMM.

The “debt ceiling” issue is also around the corner, in roughly six to eight weeks.  Boehner will cave on that as well.  So will the rest of the GOP.

Simultaneously, it’s being trumpeted that Obama will rapidly be going for amnesty for Mexicans and gun control.  He’s on a roll.  Imagine that.  And who might the “enablers” be?

It really doesn’t matter what the GOP does any more in DC — similar to the GOP “presence” in my state, Fornicalia.  The Demorats have such a supermajority in Fornicalia that they can do what they wish when they wish, with absolute impunity.

In DC, realistically — any more — there isn’t a dime’s worth of difference between the Demorats and the Republicans.  They all want to be treated with deference, like little Kings and Queens.  They all want their cars and perks and pensions unsullied by such limitations as are placed on the Proles and Groundlings — you and me.

They want excoriations and limitations placed upon you and me, but with exemptions for their perfumed and coiffed personas.

I say: that shit has to die.  Throttled and garroted and shot and exsanguinated again.

I say: it won’t, if the Republicans have anything to say about it.  And they do.

Because they are in league with the Demorats in terms of fleecing the American electorate.

I am changing my registration from Republican to Independent.

My cash to the GOP stopped long ago, with a few exceptions.  My Congressman, Tom McClintock, did NOT vote with Boehner.  He gets my cash as long as he’s in office.

It’s like this:

Your house is on fire.

House On FireYou are watching TV at another friend’s home.

Your emergency is being covered by the media.

But you’re worried about the response of the fire station.

How are their rigs polished?  Are they nice and resplendent?  Do they shine?  And, moreover, when they have an open house, will they feature tri-tip as opposed to burgers?  Will you be invited?  And how many tri-tips can you consume — more than your neighbors?

Because, after all, how they respond is as important as what they mean to do.

Obama and Congress go over the fiscal cliff with their pockets stuffed full of cash:

Posted on by

Just as America goes over the proverbial fiscal cliff, Mr Obama recently signed an Executive Order increasing pay for himself, Biden, and Congress.

Despite what a Bloomberg Businessweek article characterized as “the nation’s worst economic slump in seven decades,” Barack Obama has issued an executive order granting pay increases for his second-in-command Joe Biden, Congress, and a number of federal judicial posts.

WHY, I ask, WHY hasn’t this information been BLASTED across the national and global DEM/MSM?

Whilst you and I suffer as taxpayers, the only people profiting are

We spend 42% of GDP on government.

When do we say “enough,” people?

When do taxpayers start to revolt?

Too low, too slow, too heavy

Much like the American economy.

More on the video:

Crash at 2:44
This is unprecedented footage of a small airplane crash from inside the cockpit from two different views. Miraculously, everyone survived. The pilot will make a full recovery and the rest of us escaped with superficial injuries and feel very lucky to be alive . This trip was much anticipated and due to our excitement we had our Gopro cameras filming at various times. After flying up into the mountains for a morning hike in the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness we were planning on flying to a small mountain town for dinner. Due to warming temperatures there was an increase in density altitude and we had a hard time getting adequate lift. The cameras were left on for a couple of hours during the aftermath. Thank you to all the many individuals who eventually came to our aid and took the time and effort to help in any way they could. We appreciate you more than you know.

-Thanks to my brother Aaron who helped by editing and posting this video experience. Please visit his project helping others in need at www.OriginallyNew.com

Likely suspects: older plane, unknown maintenance, altitude (thinner air), possibly coupled with temperature (was it a hot day?).  A small plane like that, at that altitude and temperature is susceptible and sensitive to weight.  A full passenger compartment (FOUR people and equipment!) means it’s overweight.  You can clearly tell, by the length of time required to lift off, coupled with the poor climb-out, that the aircraft was in serious trouble early on.

This crash was foreseeable.

So is the coming fiscal crash.
