Breakdown of the Family Unit

Two Classes Divided by "I Do"

This article describes why it is better to get through school, get married, then have children, in that order.  A telling quote from this article is:

But striking changes in family structure have also broadened income gaps and posed new barriers to upward mobility. College-educated Americans like the Faulkners are increasingly likely to marry one another, compounding their growing advantages in pay. Less-educated women like Ms. Schairer, who left college without finishing her degree, are growing less likely to marry at all, raising children on pinched paychecks that come in ones, not twos.

Some say the downfall of American spociety came with air conditioning in the home.  Others say it was the breakdown of the family unit.  This column by Ann points out that democrats are responsible for the family unit collapse.

What are the chances this report gets any play in the media other than on talk radio, Fox News and Fox Business?  Please share this with your friends and let them know that tax rates and tax revenue do not go up and down together.  Also let them know that choices have consequences.

President Obama and democrats want to raise taxes in the interest of fairness, with total disregard to the consequences of doing so.

Bill O'Reilly: The ghost of Ronald Reagan

I sincerely wish more Americans knew the difference between tax rates and tax revenue.  The two do not necessarily move in the same direction.  Andrew Mellon proved this in the 1920's and it was also demonstrated by Presidents Kennedy, Reagan and Bush 43.

Wealthy people, who President Obama wants to tax at a higher rate, will change their behaviors, and move money to tax exempt holdings, thereby reducing the income that the IRS collects.  They will put their money into investments that are taxed at a lower rate, or not at all.  And that hurts the eeconomy as a whole.  We need to induce them to invest in business and high earning opportunities that benefit the economy and increas tax revenues.

Remember when it was so terrible for Republicans to hold America hostage over the debt ceiling debate? Why then it is okay for democrats to hold America hostage over tax increases?

So if Obama can blame George W. Bush for all things that are wrong today, then it makes perfect sense he can blame Mitt Romney for things may or may not have occured at Bain after 1999.  Fact checkers be damned.

Do the benefits outweight the  costs?  LOST would result in US investors losign money to the UN and other nations because they believe that sea exploration is not to be exploited by any one nation.  I say, if you don't like it, then develop the sea for yourselves.

Vote no on this treaty.
