Where is this money going to come from? Oh that's right , the "RICH"! The Govt will just confiscate it.

You have to be pretty dense (or a complete right-wing tool) to look at the widening income gap in America and think the answer is 'TAX THE POOR MORE!'

Going after "wealthy" individuals is not the answer and won't solve the problem.

The loopholes for corporations need to end and all companies need to be taxed equally. No lobbying for tax breaks.

Also the free trade agreements need to be modified drastically. No more going overseas for cheap labor.

All of the wars need to end and the department of defense needs a budget cut of at least 50%. The majority of international bases need to be shut down.

We are in no present danger of being invaded by any country and the likelihood of any military other than ours having the capability of reaching our shores in the next 50 years is minimal.

Put the troops to work with shovel-ready jobs and rebuild the infrastructure that is deteriorating rapidly. (cry harder conservatards)

etc. etc. and whatnot.

I agree with just about all of this, but unfortunately it seems most of it is impossible in this political climate. Obama's too much of a spineless politician to take strong stands on anything and the Republicans are puppets for a party of tards.
