BUt since the election they have not said a peep, complete<br \/>\n\tsilence. Now this can be for one of two reasons&#8230;. they dont want to talk about it or they are<br \/>\n\treally not sure they did the right thing.  Funny thing is i dont really care&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\tFor me that is hard because i care about most things, but not this. As i have said i<br \/>\n\tdont feel the same. I guess if i had to put some type of word to it , it would be disappointment.<br \/>\n\tI can&#8217;t understand why people placed so little value on what we had&#8230; and i do say had<br \/>\n\tbecause i feel this is one mistake you can not correct. <\/p>\n<p>\tWhen the dust settles 4 years from now we will be 22 trillion in debt, wellfare and the interest<br \/>\n\ton the debt will take 80-85% of  federal revenue, and there is nothing you can do.<\/p>\n<p>\tIf you tax the rich the additional 10% Obama wants   it will be about 70 billion a year, adnd we still have<br \/>\n\ta deficit over 1 trillion, increase that to 20% and you still have a deficit over a trillion, increase that<br \/>\n\tto 30% and it is still over a trillion, increase it to 40% and we still have a yearly debt over 1 trillion.<\/p>\n<p>\tAt that rate the top i % would be paying about 56% to the feds then add on the state and other stuff<br \/>\n\tand it is about 70-80%. You cant grow a free system when the people that feed it dont have anything<br \/>\n\tleft.<\/p>\n<p>\tMaybe thats why i feel the way i do, the math does not add up, i dont see what we have left in 4 years to<br \/>\n\tfix.<\/p>\n<p>\tI look at people i know that voted for this , and i dont get, and i dont feel the same.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tgman<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h3>Replies:<\/h3>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> NofieldFive on November 24, 2012, 4:15 pm<\/p>\n<div>Gman, I agree completely.
