					<description><![CDATA[SeeSaw, our leader is the head of the largest Prison Industrial Complex in the world, with only less than 5% of the worlds population we have close to 30% of the worlds prisoners. And the drone raids he has been carrying out have killed hundreds of innocent children, women, and men. 

   Do you believe the people in our prisons are all incarcerated for acts that caused harm to another individual or that some are political prisoners?  :)]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[By shopping non-union, you are participating in helping to bring down the demographics of the population, therefore slowing the economy&#039;s recovery. 

Whatever happened to respect for the President of our country, regardless of what party he belongs to?  If you showed the same type of disrepect toward your leader, if you were living in Syria, you and your family would be slaughtered like some of those Syrian families we saw that happen to recently.  How do you like the idea of your children being slaughtered, because of your words!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Interesting posts. By being cheap, shopping non-union  I am sending my children to college. Enough said. Anyone who has an problem with that.....well, I will start off the week right and keep it to myself. 
Folks, put money away, higher taxes are coming, whether through the wise ones in Sacramento, or the Divine One and his minions in Washington.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Minority, I retired at the age of 72.  Furthermore, the youngest retiree I know from my municipality was 53, and he was a rarity.  The average age of all miscellaneous CalPERS retirees is 60. I support my own lifestyle with the pension that I earned working for a living.  I use my pension money to buy your products and services.  So, you don&#039;t support me and I don&#039;t support you.  We each support ourselves by working for whatever we have.  

Rex, I don&#039;t invite you to belittle me, for no reason at all.  Come with a discussion-point or keep quiet.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m not a big fan of prop 30 at all, but the payroll tax &quot;increase&quot; (really expiry of 2-year tax holiday stimulus) is the SAME tax rate we&#039;ve always been paying.  Can people not remember this?  A republican in the white house would not have made a bit of difference. Stimulus must stop eventually. 

If Social Security is a ponzi scheme, then I guess we really need to make sure that the taxes keep coming in to fund current retirees. Can&#039;t cut payroll taxes without first cutting social security benefits. Complaining about this seems pretty silly, and reduces your credibility.]]></description>
