can someone help me understand something......regarding this whole "spreading the wealth around" issue.......isn't that for people making more than 250K per year? do I have that wrong?

I'm a political idiot, but I think you got that right...



The problem I have with this is that my DH and make just above this limit. We have over 100K in student loans. We work our azzes off - I work long hours, so does my DH - he barely sees my son. So now that we make over this amount, we now have to "spread it around" to people who don't? We are penalized b/c we work a billion hours a week? How about this...let me spread my student loans around...any takers?

Yes, but the problem with the statement is that it is a linchpin phrase in socialist theory.

Quite honestly, both these candidates suck.Chat Icon I think it's got to be a really ****** position to be in right now to be running for president because quite honestly, what the hell is the answer? What is it? We're in a bad freaking place, and I seriously don't trust either of these men to run the country.

But this happens every day to millions of families.....I am sure many people on this site alone got pregnant as a teen. You can't always fault the parent.



But this is a parent pushing an abstinance-only sex-education agenda. Obviously, it was not effective.



Actually that scenerio is more common than you may think. Granted, they may not be running for VP, but whatever.

she is still a strong woman, who is balancing family and career.

As far as her daughter being promiscuous...did anyone miss that little Monica Lewinsky thing a few years ago?



Whatever what? She is making policy, or will be, in this area- she is not an average parent. I do believe that sex ed needs to start and end in the home, but abstinance-only education is not effective.

Monica Lewinsky was an adult who had finished her education, so I don't see how that is a relevant example. I also did not call Bristol Palin "promiscuous"- a girl having sex with her longtime boyfriend does not fit the meaning of that term.

And since I'm on here, I also want to add that I think Palin's stance against abortion in cases of rape or incest is really anti-woman. Chat Icon That might be my biggest beef with her.

I agree. And I was promiscuous. Nothing against that. But I used condoms.

This is my understanding as well. What I do not understand is those who are completely against raising taxes. No one wants to pay more and many of us can not. However, how do we pay off the trillions of dollars in debt without raising taxes at some point?

This is a very difficult time for any politician running for proesident. I do not think either of them have the answer.
