		<description>snewsom---At the same time, people are complaining about the thieving middle class union workers who want to be able to bargain for retirement plans, and good health care, as if they don&#039;t deserve these luxuries. Paul Ryan wants to cut any kind of assistance to some of these people  to save the future for his friends, while stealing the future for the middle class. I don&#039;t know your financial condition, but I have worked for a very profitable company for 32 years, who asks us to sacrifice while they make billions. I fight to fill my car, pay the mortgage, car payments, penalties due to juggling bills etc. and the retirement I hope to receive, doesn&#039;t begin to suffice for any kind of living, outside of assistance from social security. I am sure it is a lot better on your cloud or Paul Ryans cloud, but the rest of us don&#039;t have that luxury.

		<description>Anyone seen the Film segment&quot; of the woman arrested at the &quot;town hall meeting&quot; in Florida for daring to ask a question concerning Ryan&#039;s budget and what it will do to Medicare and the middle class? They had a &quot;muscle bound bouncer there who took her out of the meeting and gave het to a police officer who the ARRESTED HER. And she did NOTHING TO DESERVE IT. And you right wingers cannot lie about it because it was all recorded. Then she got MACED in jail. Or how about the State of Michigan and Rick Snyder&#039;s &quot;firing&quot; of the Benton Harbor mayor and the town council&quot; and the subsequent action of TAKING THE TOWN OVER? And you all you know by now of the bullying tactics of Scott Walker in Wisconsin and John Kasich in Ohio...right? All GOP governors. Is this the type of &quot;freedom and leadership we as Americans believe in? It looks more like tyrannical police states and and oligarchic rule to me. Just wondering if anyone is paying attention out there.

		<description>Paulie
&quot;Its ridiculous anyway because democrats already stripped $500 billion (yes billion with a b) from medicare when they passed their mammoth &quot;Health Care Reform&quot; scam which guarantees us NOTHING except mandatory insurance bills to pay to the same private insurance companies that are supposedly robbing us in 2014 or pay a fine.&quot;

		<description>Posted by: CND FOX &#124; Apr 29, 2011 7:21:16 AM---Middle Class people plan their own retirement, either through a 401k or pension, if you aren&#039;t doing that you aren&#039;t middle class, if you rely on government assistance for you daya to day survival you are not middle class, if you can&#039;t feed your family without food stamps you aren&#039;t middle class, if you can&#039;t buy a home without an FHA loan you aren&#039;t middle class, if you can&#039;t pay for your medical care with out the government you are&#039;t middle class. Middle Class isn&#039;t something you are given it is something your earn and when you stop earning it you no longer have it.

		<description>Economy grows by 1.8%. Soft, spoiled, self-serving fools we have become, to observe our prosperity and simultaneously  lose sight of the personal and economic freedoms that allowed its creation. Alas, fools love to suffer equally, and given time, will achieve that objective.

		<description>Secondlook and Reality, do you notice something &quot;obvious&#039; on any of these articles where you really need to know and understand what you are talking about? An ABSCENCE of right wing posts. I think I know why. This one is not &quot;easy&quot; to lie about. Especially since so many middle class people have all ready figured out what Ryan&#039;s budget will do to them, their children and grandchildren. You know what this &quot;fight&quot; is ALL about, don&#039;t you (that are not ONE THING and one thing only. To keep their &quot;Bush tax rates&quot;. And the GOP, the tea partiers and conservatives are the &quot;definite ENABLERS&quot; OF THAT EFFORT.

		<description>The Ryan budget claims to save us 700 billion in medicare cuts.  What he&#039;s not telling you is he&#039;s counting the 500 billion Obama saved in Healthcare reform.  Which they plan on getting rid of.
