The most OPENLY ...
The most OPENLY racist place I have EVER been is in Erie PA. Also, the annual roar on the shore motorcycle gathering in Erie PA is the most racist event I've EVER seen! Wake? up America! Check it out yourself! Just don't go there alone if your not white.

The 75% who say ...
The 75% who say they would pay more for renewable energy to help combat global warming are full of it. They could do that right now but they aren't, which is why renewables need government subsidies to survive. Same with? the auto emissions standards. If consumers wanted to pay more for lower emissions, the auto industry would be happy to make that happen. But they don't want that, so the government has to step in and make it happen by force.

What a shocker... A ...

The key word there ...
The key word there is can't take care of themselves Cenk. Many polls form there questions as yes or no.and there are? NO other options. Polls are crap.

... Liberal is not ...
... Liberal is not a bad word. It's only sneered at in the United States by far right Conservatives, but you have to remember that the Right in the U.S. is a bunch of goose stepping NAZI's. Canada needs to really watch them, because I think Conservatives in America are going to lead the country right into a nuclear war, and the radiation fallout will hit Canada. Our Conservatives are not like yours.? Stephen Harper is a good man. Our Conservatives are dangerous hate-filled nuts.

It always baffles ...
It always baffles me how the word "liberal" has become? a dirty word in the United States. Where I live, most people are liberals, and proud of it.

Obama and democrats ...
Obama and democrats are supported by mega companies you know that right? In the end,? do you trust Washington or wall street more?

Bring lots of help? ...
Bring lots of help? WIMP! Lots of help! You're going to need it! You talk big, that tells me you're a loser!

WRONG! You ...
WRONG! You obviously don't understand our tax structure. Also you have to take into consideration that some of what you call tax for other nations are actually fees for services they are forced to pay. For example the? outragous cost for substandard healthcare in other countries is called tax. Of course one ObamaCare is in place, there is trillions more we'll be taxed to pay for healthcare.

Obviously you don't ...
Obviously you don't have a clue! We have the second highest corporate tax rate in the world. We have outragous regulations, we have unions now suing companies if they open a factory in a non-union state, the idiots in Washington are forcing business out? of the country. Maybe someday you'll grow a brain and figure it out.

"rich f**kers who ...
"rich f**kers who want to turn the US into a third world country" You mean big corporations that donate to Obama who are makjing money hand over fist thanks to his policies? those "rich f**kers"? And the Unions that want everyone to work for them, one nation under unions, with wage control and their choice of justice for all? I hope I do make you puke, you morons leftist are destroying this country by eliminating the middle class and are? too stupid to understand it.

-What exactly is ...
-What exactly is bulls**t? And what you say about face to face...you? might have a tough time doing that.

Wow, everything ...
Wow, everything that you said is bulls**t. I served my country and i'm a liberal. If you ever said that to my face,? I would kill you where you stand.

No you probably get ...
No you probably get your information from bulls**t "think tanks" like the Cato institute and the Heritage? foundation. You know bulls**t organizations which pretend to do research, but are just shills for rich f**kers who want to turn the US into a third world country. You and scum like them make me want to puke.

Yes TARP, a Bush ...
Yes TARP, a Bush administartion policy. I think it's time for a revolution,? and when it happens, I'm coming for the scumbags like yourself.

You are suck a ...
You are suck a lying f**k. You fail to mention the fact that multinationals are able to offshore their profits and transfer their expenses to the US so they appear to have a loss. Obviously you have no f**king clue how? accounting works. Why don't you put a f**king sock in you, you sorry sack of dog s**t.

I don't know? what ...
I don't know? what kind of crack TheYoungTurks have been smoking, but I'd like to buy some from them. Just take a look at the polls regarding same-sex marriage and abortion and you'll find that an overwhelming majority of Americans are CONSERVATIVE

...The Idiot " ...
...The Idiot "Parling Lot Grocery Cart Collector"(Obama) couldn't even manage a? cash register at Winn Dixie..OBAMA=HISTORICAL FAILURE....

And which was ...
And which was you're source? for this, MSNBC, Huffington Post or this idiot? I know, the 100% accurate Wiki, right? It's very appearant that you first of all you don't understand how taxes work in this country and second you like quoting someones talking point rather then do research before posting.

we have the 2nd ...
we have the 2nd lowest taxes of any developed? nation in the world.

Somehow this ...
Somehow this comment disappeared, so I'm reposting it. We also have the highest corporate taxes in the world. Corporations not only pay Fed. corporate tax of 35% to 41.6%, but also pay state tax, consumption tax, unemployment tax, excise tax, and many other specialized taxes which can add to the cost of a product as? much as 75%. All of this contributes to the cost of products built here which is why we are losing manufacturing to other countries. Didn't even mention regulations..

The plan? by " ...
The plan? by "Liberal govt." wasn't to have them go down, it was to have the Bush tax cuts expire, making the taxes go way up again. Fortunately, that didn't happen because of the failure of the stimulus (ironic name for a bill that was more like a payoff) did nothing to improve the economy and because TARP made things worse by allowing the banks the money they needed to go on a rampage and foreclose as many homes as they could instead of letting the market force them to negotiate

We also? have the ...
We also? have the highest corporate taxes in the world which is also paid for by the consumer (obviously). The consequence; products produced in the US may be has high as 70% tax. Which is why we are losing so much manufacturing to other country in spite of the rhetoric you here that Corporations are doing it from greed. From a companies perspective; they pay corporate tax, materials mid production tax, tax on equipment, payroll tax, insurance, unemployment tax, corporate tax ,etc...

Out taxes are a bit ...
Out taxes are a bit diffrent here which is very decieving and drives some of us that really understand the process nuts. Where as you pay a flat VAT, we pay a sales tax. The problem is that a single product may be taxed many times before you actually purchase it. The price of? some products may have 20%-30% before you pay the tax for consumption. On top of that we have our wonderful sin taxes. I was recently in NYC where cigarettes are $16.00 a pack, $15 of which is tax.
