It's like this....
Help me out here.... shorter is better.... remember.... I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed..
I'm a 35 year old white male. I'm married with 1 child... I own a business and work for others (the stunt thing). I have a six figure income and am trying really hard to break into the next figure bracket... My wife (bless her) is a stay at home mom and doesn't contribute financially.... Who do I want and why?
Oh... I've always considered myself a republican
OK, be gentle and simplify..
thanks

Stunts,
Three elderly women all live on the same street. Early one morning one of the women decided she would like to bake cupcakes. So she purchased some flour from one of the other women who lived two doors down the street. She purchased some sugar from the second woman who lived right next door. She then got out her cookbook and spent the next two hours baking and frosting a dozen cupcakes.
To a Democrat, this result is a shamefully disastrous and horribly inequitable example of capitalism and its resultant inequality. One greedy old wench ends up with all the cupcakes and the other two women are victims who have been screwed out of their fair share of the cupcakes. The Democratic Party's solution to this problem is to take 50% of the producing women's cupcakes and distribute them to the other two women.
The woman who baked the cupcakes in the first place will of course be subjected to annual audits where she will have to prove that she did not make any cupcakes that were not reported to the state so that half of them could be taken to be redistributed to those who did not make any.
The United States of America has been reduced to mob rule. 50% of taxpayers contribute virtually nothing to the support and maintenance of the nation. 25% of taxpayers receive earned income tax refunds of thousands of dollars more per year than they paid in taxes. The top 25% of taxpayers pay 90% of the income taxes. Democrats will bitch incessantly that the rich are not paying their fair share but never once have they ever stated what the "fair share" is. It's just always more than they're paying now.
Imagine this. There are 10 people living on your street. The man at the end of the street took a great risk investing his life savings and pledging all of his assets including his house to start up his own business. He worked 80 hours per week for years to protect his investment and make his business a success. His company provides jobs for half of the other people living on the street. Today he lives in a nice home and makes four times as much money as the average of the other nine residents. The other nine residents did not want to risk their homes or savings nor did they want to work more than 40 hours per week. Everyone was happy until a Democratic Party operative convinced the nine non-business owners that it was unfair and unjust for the business owner to be making more money than they were. So they call for a vote on whether or not half of the income and property of the richest resident on the street should be confiscated and redistributed to the other nine residents living on the street. The results of the vote were 9 to 1 in favor of confiscating half of rich man's income and property. If the rich man didn't willingly give it up he would of course, be jailed. And so it is in America today.
The land of the free and the home of the brave has been converted into the land of the whiners and wimps and the home of the lawsuit. Our once limited government that was supposed to exist primarily for the defense of the nation, the coining of money, and the regulation of interstate commerce has now been turned in to a giant clearinghouse for the redistribution of income and property from those who earned it to those who didn't. The hard-working people who created the wealth will be referred to derisively as "the rich" and the lazy slobs sitting on their butts waiting for and demanding ever-increasing handouts will be referred to as "working families".
With liberty and justice for all. :bored
