Schieffer interviews Paul Ryan, tries to back him into a corner and fails.... I can't embed the video (it's locked) so you will have to go to YouTube to view it.
Amount of millionaires in 2000 was right at 4 million and reached a peak of 9.2 million in 2007.. As of 2010 it dropped to 7.8 million...
Hmmm... I wonder if those numbers include a certain fraudulent anti-Capitalist Commie Kenyan whose basis of wealth and earnings came as a result of anti-Whitey, anti-America books written by an American terrorist, and quid-pro-quo corruption and graft while as an Illinois politician?
Truth IS greater than fiction!

No, a consumption tax... You do away with the current tax system and go to a consumption tax.... A VAT tax would only be on top of what we presently have and would be in essence a tax increase.....

A VAT is not a tax on sales. It's a tax on production. Some countries do refund the VAT when products are exported, which makes it more like a sales tax. However a real sales tax would tax imports in the same way that domestically produced products are taxed -- when they are purchased. The VAT doesn't do this.

I know that, but a lot of people seem to be hung up on tax increases so figured I would concentrate on that first...... That will be next......

I've been in Chicago for the last three weeks on a big project. I'm flying back to Seattle in the morning. Right now I'm winding down at a bar, drinking a Pale Ale -- my first beer in 3 weeks. So I figured I might as well give the leftist loons a hard time as well. ;););)

Crazy weather -- two Sunday's ago it was 85. On Monday when I woke up there was a little snow on the ground.
Two weird things:
A.) The waitresses call you "honey"
B.) There are a lot of men with gold chains around their necks. Not gay guys - - but big Italian looking dudes who apparently think it's still the 1970s.

That drives me crazy, I want to say I'm not your honey so bad, but just bite my tongue instead.....

While Bush's governance was admittedly quite insane if you ask me, the degree of insane of both 0bama and his supporters who ignore the red elephant on the poop-deck is off-the-charts.
Full agreement. I was ticked off with GOP House and Bush administration spending in the summer of 2006 to the point I simply didn't vote for any Republican except for Governor here in Ohio (Blackwell). At the time, I think the annual deficit was somewhere around 550 - 660 billion.
Today...Owe-bama, with help from Pelosi Galore and dingy Harry Reid tripled that annual defict.
And the Left wonders why I'm really pissed off NOW?

Boofer never believed that we had more money than we spent. Boofer makes things up...on any given day he either has vast property upon which he combat pistols or his house sits on a cliff.
What was stupid was not paying down the debt when we had more money when we were spending.
I have no argument with this at all. Its why I voted against the GOP in 2006, except for Ohio's Governor. I thought Hassert, DeLay and Bush lost their freakin minds then.
Today, the annual Federal Deficit I was so pissed off about in 2006 is TRIPLE what it was that year.
Not real happy with how he seems to get bullied into doing stuff. Clinton used to laugh at the GOP when they huffed up their collective chests. Obama needs to do that.
