    You tone seemed to suggest that any cuts to defense were unacceptable.

    Actually, I am not offended by any of these words. In fact, I can appreciate well placed cursing or slang for effect because at times it can be the only means of expressing one's feelings. That said, when you start ranting and cursing and every other sentence or post contains profanity just because you are angry, it is unbecoming and makes you seem ignorant.

    Again, in your questions you reference jobs lost.

    How do you know if higher taxes will not mean more jobs lost?

    This is why I cannot answer as you would like.

    Another cop-out.

    So forget question 1 and answer the others:

    1. Are the rich "job creators" or not?

    2. If yes, then why are they shipping their factories and assets overseas?

    3. If no, then why should they get a special tax break?

    Yes, pecans to apples. That is how poor of a comparison it was.

    Most Presidents do not have experience in the public sector. Clinton and Reagan did not have private sector experience and they managed okay. Private sector experience is highly overrated because in the private sector when you make a decision it is absolute and everyone else follows your orders or else. It doesn't work that way in government.

    Nope, but my only fear is that they will be the brunt of ALL cuts.

    1. Yes and no.

    2. For the ones that do, there are many factors. Taxes among them, but not the sole cause.

    3. Depends on policy changes.

    Exactly, which is why Obama has indirectly sent jobs overseas through his appointees. He is directly taking input from the CEO of GE who sends jobs overseas. There are many more people like him.
