Dem Rep. Tells Russian Media: U.S. Is ‘Banana Republic’ Without Wealth Redistribution

In an interview with Russia Today, Congresswoman Schakowsky claims that the American middle class is disappearing because the federal government is failing to effectively redistribute wealth. Among her top concerns: extending Bush-era tax cuts for all income levels:
Aren't "banana republics" were governments get too involved? Someone needs to tell the democrats that before it's too late and they turn us into one.

  1. here's the best explanation of a banana republic i've found...

    The purpose of a banana republic is commercial profit by collusion between the State and favoured monopolies, whereby the profits derived from private exploitation of public lands is private property, and the debts incurred are public responsibility. Such an imbalanced economy reduces the national currency to devalued paper-money, hence the country is ineligible for international development credit and remains limited by the uneven economic development of town and country.

    Kinda reminds me off the Bush years with its much more open door policy to public land use for private profit.

  2. Great job plagerizing from a man that says I'm a plagerizer. Maybe you need to stop projecting yourself on me and start thinking for yourself. Using someone elses thoughts to express your own is nothing new with you Joe. But it is funny how you complain about it when I put up a video from Fox News or Glenn Beck. Bush printed money and Obama is printing it at a much greater rate. Would you like to find someone elses opinion on that and comment? Thank goodness the Democrats have you trained right. Joe Public land is our land. Why can't our economy profit from the land our tax $'s bought? Who do you think should profit from our public lands?

  3. And we can continue with..."Kleptocracy, government by thieves (taxation), features influential government employees exploiting their posts for personal gain (embezzlement, fraud, bribery, etc. does Rangel come to mind?), with the resultant deficit repaid by the native working people who “earn money”, rather than “make money” (aka:not for profit). Because of foreign entities manipulation, the government is unaccountable to its nation, the country's private sector–public sector corruption operates the banana republic, thus, the national legislature usually are for sale (cornhusker kickback and Louisiana purchase come to mind), and function mostly as ceremonial government.

  4. Banana Republic Country that beleives 1958 Chevies are state of the art.

    Banana Republic Country that believes Government should Rule not Govern.

    Banana Republic Country that beleives Citizens wealth must be "Redistributed" for the good of the country.

    Banana Republic Beleives country with Citizen input Weak Big Government Knows Best.

    All except Chevy example sounds like present regime. Citizens have spoken and Bananas will not be on the MENU!

  5. Death Tax Taxing property that has already been taxed. If property is also business business has been taxed. Business with employees once again are taxed. If Heirs Inherit property that their parents have worked and built they are taxed for what Parents have aleady been taxed on and paid. Death Tax is basicly a Seisure of Private property by Government.

    Instead of Taxing Earners why not cut Government spending by for starters 10% beginnig with Government employees who make much more than private sector for same basic job. Private sector employees have sacrificed at least 10% of their wages during current Economy down turn YET Government Union employees enjoy NO sacrifice on their part. Only ones Sacrificing for Public employees are the Tax Payers and that has to stop.

    112th Congress must address SPENDING and start with 10% cut in all spending. If there is NO Funding than there is NO Spending. Its called a BUDGET! Politicans MUST learn to live within OUR means.

    The only thing Banana about OUR Republic is The Politicans and Citizen will throw out Rotton Bananas.

    Hey, brainiac where are those quotes again? I thought a quote started and ended with "" and then gave reference to who said it? I know I act "uneducted" sometimes but this is just way too much fun.
