You have no idea what I've learned when I had to get people to do things they did not want to do.

You see, the dangerous thing about about me is that I've really had to work at implementing big change in organizations. I did implementation for four systems for the entire organization. They gave me two promotions to do it the third time. I wrote he audits and conducted them and we passed national muster... That's how good I was at implementation of management plans, environmental systems, maintenance plans, and performance measures.

And all that means that I know you are wrong.

The Republican party chose not to vote for anything Obama proposed from the day he got in office is never "uniting"...

There is nothing desirable about the republican behavior. It is all destructive in the most obvious ways. Even anarchists do not harm themselves but republicans do. Only fools and jackasses wanting to destroy set about changing positions and fighting against everything they supported in the past.

This, if I may say, is the last gasp of the republican party because they have taken positions so extreme they will lose too many young voters in the years to come. These years are the last years of the republican party where the republicans, like children, are having hissy fits, kicking, screaming, banging hands and feet on the floor in tantrums... Reasonable men do not behave that way.

It will be the party's downfall because they shame themselves for all to see and it's now obvious to everyone in the USA.

I have to disagree with the majority here and take Mac's side. Both parties have failed this country over the last 2 years, nobody wants to compromise and the next generation is going to pay the big price.

Reality Check: We need to raise taxes across the board with a fair tax system (not just the rich, but everyone) and we need to cut governmnet spending.

thank you - I try to keep an open mind and look at both sides of the issue. Sometimes I fail to find all of the facts. I could understand a proportionate tax increase on everybody along with a major cut in government spending if together they were used to substantially reduce the national debt.

Currently:

(1) the top 1% pay 39% of the income tax

(2) the bottom 50% pay zero income tax

(3) those in between pay 61% of the income tax

How should tax increases be applied?

We need to raise money by selling off our bankrupt counties, towns, cities, and states to international corporations. This is the future, amigo. The senate can go to the top 100 corporate powers, and subsidiaries. Then the top 435 local governments bought out by these corporations can make up the house. The president will be selected by the nine justices who along with congress will then select each of the nine justices.
