Neal Boortz: An America divided

Neal Boortz  ..."Let’s take a look at some of the divisions among us that politicians in Washington seem intent on expanding or making permanent for the purposes of their own political pursuits."
.... "But for those of you who believe that our country cannot survive at this current pace and that we need to scale back to a more limited government, you might describe our situation as “grave.”  That’s the word Mitch Daniels used in his GOP response to Ceasar Obammus’ campaign speech.  Then in response to this description of “grave,” Democrat hack Chuckie Schumer comes along and says “we think we are in great shape. We are in good shape.” "


...."Schumer and these Democrats like Debbie Wasserman Shultz are pandering to the lowest common denominator of voter who is completely incapable of discerning basic facts from tall tales."
Mr Boortz then discusses each of these points of division in turn and we have pasted in a brief excerpt from each: 
  • Rich versus Poor  "The more accurate heading should read: Rich versus people who want... the government to redistribute the wealth."
  • Perception versus Reality   "A study by Spectrem Group found that among today’s millionaires, inherited wealth accounted for just 2% of their total sources of wealth."
  • Small Business versus Big Government  "Add ObamaCare into the mix and a host of other regulations and soon the cost of doing businesses just isn’t worth it."
  • Americans versus Big Anything  "They are so unsatisfied with big entities like our federal government, and yet they hand their children over to our government every day to be educated."
  • Black Voters versus Rational Thought  In 2008, Obama "enjoyed a 96% approval rating among black Americans.  That figure is embarrassing.  That figure has now dropped to an all-time low of 79% approval.  But still … 79%?  Gimme a break, folks." 
  • Americans versus the Tax Code "First, many taxpayers abroad say they are confused “by the complex legal and reporting requirements they face and are overwhelmed by the prospect of having to comply with them.” "
