the problem with that idea is the middle class will become so decimated that it will take a century for it to recover if ever....

Facing a huge budget deficit when he took office in January, Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano did not impose a hiring freeze. He did not stop borrowing to subsidize some of the richest school districts in the country. He did not eliminate the Police Departments beloved mounted unit.
Instead, Mr. Mangano, a Republican who won one of the first upsets of the Tea Party era, did what he had promised: He cut taxes, adding $40 million to the countys deficit, which has since reached nearly $350 million.
Now, with its bonds suddenly downgraded and a state oversight agency preparing to seize its checkbook and credit cards, Nassau is on the verge of a full-fledged fiscal crisis.

Any Tea-Partiers want to defend this?
It seems to me that you need to pay off debts and cut spending BEFORE you reduce your income.
Pics of gf?
I've posted a pic before. I leave it up to you to find it
It isn't an "idea" it is pure arithmetic. You can cheat for a while but eventually the math always wins. At that point you still have to take the original pain plus all the added pain from trying to cheat.
Like I said, it is going to happen regardless. The only question is how much worse are we going to make it and who is going to be the decider on when we take it.
Keep voting Republican dumb Americans, Keep voting Republican
Try voting fortheperson instead of the party.
Voting for the party allows you to easily look at the idiot in the mirror

Actually this is fairly consistent with Tea Partiers. Tea party scumbags want their government programs (see Medicare/SS), but hate taxes. I say take away their government cheese and see these whiners squirm like the worms they are.
Edit: Actually let me slightly amend that, Tea Partiers want government programs only FOR THEMSELVES (see how old most of their members are), everyone else can go fuck themselves. Oh sure, they love their medicare, but if we want something for the rest of the population? Pffft. They are the greediest assholes i've ever seen.
You scapegoat public employees belonging to unions and then you wonder why unions for them need to exist? Classic.This is probably caused by excessively overpaid union employees. So just fire all these union people. This is a rampant problem on the east coast. It is time to tell the unions to go to hell. Why should taxpayers allow unions for public workers?
Just start firing people in the unions and maybe they will take a pay cut. If not fire them all and hire some people who are willing to work for less. If it is a legal problems start providing services through government contracts to the lowest bidder.
Then stop the election boards from having a straight ticket.

How does that prevent one for voting for an individual? A person is nominated and filtered ouit by primaries and/or petitions. Are you implying that an election board will play with the results of a vote?
I have never seen a ticket has just the party and not the individual.
In fact, I have never seen any voting system that allows you to choose for a block other than the Pres/VP as a unit. that goes for Congressional, state, local and "amendments/propositions/questions"
If you can provide an example, please do so.

After the Gore V Bush battle how can you ask such a loon question?
Kathryn Harris said it was her duty to mess with the vote for her party.
I don't know where you vote but most of the states I've lived in you can select a Republican ticket button and automatically selects all Republican ticket or Democrat, Libertarian etc except the write in of course.
