I don't want to spoil it for you, but the comment he makes right about here is priceless. Click it and listen for just fifteen seconds, you won't regret it.

Jesusfuckthesepeople

God bless the fucking USA

Things are very different in the developed countries it seems.

OBAMA IS THE ANTI-CHRIST!

I would do an exaggerated impression of a republican but the tragedy is everything they say is genuinely exaggerated.

this makes me very, very sad.

Pardon me while I go bash my head into a wall.

I pity all Americans who have to put up with the likes of this guy.

Frankly, he's being vastly overpaid.

Only $600,000 left to feed his family?

No it's $600,000 to pay all his bills and and such as well as feed his family and then $400,000 left to spend on his buisness.

I don't see anything wrong here.

Lol American politics

But seriously, It amazes me how much money singular people have in that country and how frequent it is.

Not to say my own country hasn't got it's share rich people, but it's just that the class system here doesn't see so in your face as in the US.

What he's not telling you is that his wife and kids are all cripples that require special $400,000/year diets.

Ace, on 21 September 2011 - 02:02 AM, said:

Actually, I think it's 600k after he's paid all his bills and that's used for food for his family and whatever the fuck else he wants.

Oh no, he doesn't have enough money to pay for his life-size-solid-gold statue.

Mikaro, on 21 September 2011 - 01:56 PM, said:

I think Ace had it right. After operating expenses and taxes, he was left with 600k profit from his company. Then after 200,000 for personal bills and whatever, he had 400,000 left to reinvest into his company.

I wouldn't be so opposed to tax increases if the government weren't so terrible at spending money. They could go a long way toward closing the deficit if they eliminated wasted spending and closed tax loopholes. If the super wealthy can get out of paying taxes, why would raising the tax rate do anything?

He was trying to obfuscate the issue and made a serious error in the process. He has $6.3 million and he can only afford to use $400,000 of that after taxes.

The majority of the deficit is covered by Social Security and military expenses. Closing the loopholes is a good start, but considering things in scale it's like putting a band-aid on a breaking dam.

It would be interesting to see just how much tax revenue is lost to loopholes. I haven't seen any statistics, but you're probably right about it being a drop in the bucket.

THis makes me cry a little inside. Some fuckin people man. . .

That's what the democrats are trying to do though, and the republicans are like 'Alright, let's see, oooohh, the EPA uses a lot of money and we could make more money by dumping pollutants into the atmosphere! Let's cancel that!'. Shit like that happens, the rich asshole lobbyists get rid of the good government programs that protect us from the zealotry of big business.

Oh hey what's this? The US Chamber of Commerce, the largest lobbyist group in existence, is funded by a conglomerate of Oil companies? Well shit, then it's not such a big surprise when you look at their stances.

The Chamber's positions include:

Supports corporate globalization/free trade and outsourcing
Opposes financial regulation
Opposes the DISCLOSE Act
Opposes healthcare reform and the Affordable Health Care for America Act (Obamacare for those who don't know much about American politics)
Opposes action on climate change (That and they legitimately want the EPA shut down, what the fucking fuck?)
Supported the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (The stimulus package)
Neutral on social questions such as abortion and gay marriage
The Chamber campaigned against portions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
Argued a case all the way to the supreme court opposing mandatory immigration status checks by employers in Arizona. (Ha, they pretend to be about supporting the American economy but they want to have illegals work so they can pay them less money.)
Supported corporate personhood and allowing corporations to spend unlimited sums on electioneering via an amicus brief to the U.S. Supreme Court Citizens United v FEC. It's position is opposed by some advocates for independent businesses.


So let's take a look see here for a second,
Supported the stimulus package
Opposes healthcare reform

"Oh hey thanks for the billions of dollars suckers! Wait, you're spending money on the citizens!? BULLSHIT, we want that money you fuckers! Quickly, call Fox News so we can spread word of these horrid deeds! Helping commoners? Feh."

Anyone watch the Republican debate and get a good laugh?

Less laughter, more rising hatred for humanity

Yes, let the hate flow through you...

Is it bad I prayed for someone to shoot them?...No. No it is not. bitchs dont debate in my state and get away with it.

Oh yes, because every republican in the country is like that.

*Rolls eyes*

dude what the fuck

TheMysteriousMan, on 23 September 2011 - 04:44 PM, said:

Yes, actually?

shut up gawd, let me hate violently in peace.

no. what you said is the equivalent of me saying I wish someone shot Obama, which is a terrible and absolutely unacceptable thing to say, and something that should never happen.

I say worse things to and about people daily with gleeful sincerity.

(It's because he's a republican, he takes offence to anything at his people )

600K to feed his family? how fat are they?

They're Americans in Louisiana. Take a guess.

Hercules would struggle to lift there fat asses?

Atlas would struggle is more like it

It would be easier to move the Earth away than to lift them off the Earth, amiriteguys?

Taeshi, on 26 September 2011 - 12:47 PM, said:

nah, I just honestly don't like the Idea of shooting someone for their ideals.
really this guy is an asshole.
but mysterious explained his reason, an after hearing it, I am no longer upset or angry. I understand why he said it, and the people who did that to him need to be locked up forever.

Chris, on 27 September 2011 - 05:43 AM, said:

I'll give you time to reevaluate your position now.

I hate Republicans. I don't see how anyone can tolerate them. They have no knowledge of how money works, and all they want to do is keep the green in their pockets while everyone else struggles.

Four hundred thousand dollars.

Please.

Please.

My family lives on two grand a month from social security - which would rapidly become $0 if the Republicans get their way - and barely has any money left to spend, and this guy is complaining about four hundred thousand dollars.

Being conservative is stupid, anyway. Progression is always healthy in human society, so when a group of people whine about gay marriage and abortion, they're stupid. Stupid faggots.

That is logic working right there.

Is that before or after you spend $1,000 on steam games daily?

Ace, on 28 September 2011 - 05:32 PM, said:

It's $1500 Ace.

Jeez, get it right.

That reminds me, you can now get Frozen Synapse for cheap if you're cheap like me!

Also this game is awesome, do it.

(Advertising but I feel it is relevant to buying Steam games)
