I highlighted your key statement here. The rich WANT to handcuff the rest because they don't want anybody else to get there.
I'm very glad that you highlighted my key statement for me.
What you did is deflect your original statement, switch it around, and contradict yourself. :yes:

They feel guilty for being successful and want to handcuff themselves until others catch up.
This is what you originally said. Totally different from what you are saying now. This is how you argue with people on here. You deflect, twist words around, and change what you originally stated. It's impossible to have a conversation that way. :yes:

You said that Liberals are handcuffing themselves until the rest catch up and now they want to handcuff the rest so they can't catch up? :crazy: Which is it? You're contradicting yourself here. :yes:

Actually, that's the Republican Party who wants to handcuff the rest. The Democrats want the rest to have an opportunity to have some success. But the Republicans constantly bash them for trying to give them that opportunity. Minimum wage comes to mind right now doesn't it? It's the Republicans who are screaming about minimum wage handcuffing the people who need a better wage. Even old Ronnie Reagan thought it was important to raise the minimum wage. The GOP would call him a socialist now with his conservative values he held compared to the far right extreme tea party that controls the party today. Sounds to me like you don't understand the political party platforms. :yes:

When you see George Clooney and such move into downtown Detroit, then you have a point. But they talk out of one side of their mouth, and then surround their wonderful mansions with armed guards and fences.
Rules for thee but not for me.
So, now you bash Liberals and are envious of them for having success? Isn't that the same line you buy when you listen to your right wing media that tell you Liberals are envious of success? :yes:
How hypocritical is that? Why should they move into downtown Detroit when they are successful? That's crazy. All George and his rich Liberal buddies want is for the lower man on the totem pole to have a shot at success too. They aren't handcuffing themselves like the garbage rhetoric that FOX News and the conservative media lies about everyday.
Get your news from good Independent News Sources so the news you listen to doesn't get clouded with the bogus right wing spin. :yes:

Liberals want to handcuff themselves until the "weak" catch up. This is the line played by the rich liberals who are smart enough to know this won't work. And the "useful idiots" who are not rich and not smart enough to know it won't work.
Now you go back to your original statement again LOL :crackup:

This is how you argue. You argue the same point wording it differently, trying to sound correct. But you end up contradicting yourself, but somehow you always claim to be right. This is how people argue when they are proven wrong. They make up false claims and argue in circles.
Whatever you say. You know you are wrong. There is no handcuffing. That is the big lie you republicans try to spin. I don't know of anybody standing around waiting for the lower man to catch up. That is a joke.
Danger said:
And now your ad-hominems begin.
There are no ad-hominems. I'm using the contradictory words that you used in two different threads. You can't have it both ways. Everybody can see that you contradicted yourself. You claim "ad-hominems" when you lose your argument to appear to look correct, but actually you are wrong with your statement. That is your go to argument tactic that you use to deflect your contradictions trying to make the other person to appear wrong.

Minimum wage just makes jobs more scarce. Classic supply/demand curve. Want to raise your wage? Get a skill.
Another republican lie used to handcuff the rest. Didn't affect any jobs in the past did it? Nope. Are you going to clean out toilets for a living? The person that is doing that should get paid three bucks more for working just as hard as somebody else does. That doesn't make jobs scarce. Some companies are already raising the wages of people's salaries on ther own. It hasn't affected the business or hiring of new jobs.
How is someone who makes nothing able to get a better skill when they have no way to get that skill?

The Tea Party is extreme Right......because balancing the budget somehow became the very definition of "extreme."
And when has the Tea Party ever balanced a budget? They won't even pass the debt ceiling to pay off the massive debt that Bush incurred for 8 years. That includes 2 unpaid wars, a failed prescription drug program, and big tax cuts. We had 8 years of Bush who gave us massive deficits in which still haven't paid off today.
Funny how you talk about socialism when Clinton had us in the green with 0 debt and the rich made out like bandits and people were better off. Then comes in Bush with his failed "trickle down economics" in which his father called it " Voodoo Economics" and almost brought our country to the brink of a major depression and a major economic collapse.
Republicans praise the great Ronnie Reagan who raised the minimum wage twice, supported gun control, citizenship to illegal aliens, and worked with the Democrats to pass Liberal and conservative legislation. You and the tea party all claim those to be socialists ideas and call it socialism. Very hypocritical. The very same man that republicans have built a golden shrine
for and can't praise enough. But when Democrats propose "his ideas" you call it socialism LOL.
Keep on preaching those failed right wing ideologies
