Does President Obama play too much Golf? - Page 24  

I'm a critical thinker.  ...

As for the education thing, it's a perfect example because you aren't required to get an education to get a job.  There IS a direct correlation between education and income.  If I invest my money in education and get a better job, increasing my income, it's no different than if I had invested that money directly in a company to increase my income.  No difference.  And if my education makes me a better worker, it also benefits both the company and its investors, just as I said.  So YOU'RE profiting from my education and experience as well.  But because I wasted my money on education instead of investing it, I should have to pay 20% on the profits I received from my education while you only pay 14% on your income resulting from my increased performance.  Yeah, that seems fair.

You're a few years late on your claims of economic demise, by the way.  Just go ahead and keep buying all the gold you can, just like Glenn Beck tells you to.  I'm loving it because you keep driving up the price of my Precious Metals and Minerals fund.  lol

Last time I checked, to get a job as a doctor you had to go to college and medical school, but hey you're the critical thinker.  

I happen to know a number of unemployed people with a college education - Bill Gates didn't graduate and he's one of the richest men in the world - so much for the correlation between education and income. 

You need to do some work on your critical thinking if you can't discern between making your money work for you and paying for college.  I got a hair cut today, big investment in myself, now the new customers I meet with see my well groomed hair and be more likely to do business with me.     I might have to buy a new suit, what's the deduction for that?  I like your critical thinking ways when can your convince Obama to have you view of investments written into the tax code? 

BTW, you're no one special, if I don't hire you because YOU INVESTED in your education, I'll hire someone else.  Your education might qualify you for a job, but there are likely 1000 others just as qualified so don't over value yourself because you went to college.  Lots of people, including myself went to college - the paper isn't worth as much as it was in the 80's

A guy that mows lawns for a living likely didn't INVEST in his college education, but his company profits from him and his experience too. 

Just make sure you declare all the money you're making on those precious metals....

The income from your job gets taxed as income.  If I take the money from my job and invest it and you take the money from your job and take vacations and buy golf clubs why should I be taxed twice at the same rate for managing my money better? 

That's the issue at hand, you want people to invest their money and there needs to be an incentive to do so otherwise everyone will pull their money out of stocks and banks.  Do you know what happens when people pull their money out of banks and stocks?  Maybe that's why you're pro-Obama you don't understand how capitalism works.

You can pick all the outliers you want, but it is a fact that there is a documented correlation between education and income. That is a FACT.

Let's just ignore the rest of my post.  There are plenty of people that don't have a college education and do quite well, when's the last time you paid a plumber, electrician or had some work done on your car?  I also know a number of college educated people that are jobless, I get their resumes whenever I post a job opening. 

Life isn't as simple or black and white as you libs would like it to be, but I get it now, if a liberal says something, it's a fact,  if a conservative says it's a fact, he's wrong or quoting biased reports.  I'm going to play golf guys, have fun. 

We'll get back together after the election and have a beer. 

If you like here are some articles about your investment in education that's a sure thing.

Point is college education doesn't guarantee employment, and people aren't investing in their education, they are borrowing money.  There's a difference, borrowed money isn't earned. 

Now I'm done.

"Does President Obama play too much Golf?"

Boy did this thread got 10,000,000 miles "OFF TOPIC" so might as well go all the way!

As far as Obama playing to much golf? Playing too much golf is the least of his inadequacies! I can't recall a President that has divided the country so sharply as Obama has in just about any policy you can think of. He has no ability at all to lead and compromise to come up with valid solutions to problems that a vast majority can live with. That is a direct reflection of "Piss Poor Leadership" on his part. I've had Lieutenant's and Captains in the Light Infantry that would run circles around this clown when it comes to being a leader. It's sad to see this great nation bickering amongst themselves, blaming each other for both sides shortcommings. But that's what happens when you have "Piss Poor Leaders" in charge. A lot of finger pointing and blaming instead of sound solutions and compromise!

One thing I learned as a Light Infantry Sergeant years ago was that if you show sound leadership qualities, your subordinates will follow you through the gates of hell. My inspiration as a leader has come from men like Dick Winters, Battalion commander of 2nd Battalion 506th Infantry, 101st Airborne during WWII. I want to believe that there are still men out there like Colonel Winters but unfortunately for every single American in this country today that type of man and leader has not stepped up to the plate since 1952.

I personally don't believe there's is a good choice in candidates that can provide coherant leadership and bring the country together in this upcoming election. It is what it is,,,It's just a shame to see this great nation lead by incompetent leaders like Obama( and not much better with Romney) when there has to be better men(or women) out there that have actual leadership skills that can bring the country together without all this bickering and finger pointing! 

God help us!!!!!!!!
