On one hand NATO and/or the US should invade, OTOH why end up in a long, protracted war where thousands of Americans die changing a fucked up place like Iran? It's a toughy, but if they go thru with this I say cut em off financially and turn up the heat on the Nukes issue.

[Furtune Teller Voice]I see in the future a republican President invading Iran . . . and Lucky 100% against the process, no matter what it may be. If only it could have been started during Obama's regime[/FTV]

Check your history. Google Iran Stoning. This isn't new. In Iran it's actually fairly common compared even to other countries under sharia law.

The fact that you want someone to invade over something in sharia law would astound me if I didn't already expect unreasoning ill-conceived "solutions" from you. Let's see, Iran has the second largest oil reserves in the world? Check. So any attack will be answered by "no blood for oil" by the likes of you (as well as jacking up oil prices). Attacking another country for enforcing their laws? Check. So any attack will be call imperialist action. Attacking for practiong their version of their religion? Check. So it'll look like a war on Islam. Yeah, great reason to attack.

How about you pay attention to issues that affect the security of other nations. Like sponsoring terrorism. Like pursuing nuclear power when they sit on more oil than anyone else in the world except the Saudis. Like constant threats if war against neighbors. Etc etc etc.

I would say leave Iran the fuck alone. We've done enough bullshit in the area.

Let Israel fuck with them.

Great idea, Let's go to Brooklyn and free all the Farsi in that concentration camp.

How would lucky feel if Iran came over to the USA and freed us Americans from the government that has been known to take 90% or more of a person's income?

You need a better tax accountant.

Smaller government would be better.

I happen to agree with both of you. I got myself a better CPA, and lower taxes would help. Where did the 90% bit come from? I've never seen over 70% in the US, even of you count income tax and then taxes on spending.

If you think that tax rate was used mainly to fund "socialism" in the US during that time, you're wrong. After World War II, that was principally to fund the (largely peacetime) massive military buildup that morphed into the Cold War military-industrial complex. In the US, unlike the UK and most of Europe during the 50s, those taxes were not used mainly to fund domestic social services programs like the other nations' comprehensive national health services. Eisenhower (Republican), who was President from 1953-1961, could have put the brakes on that, but did not.

I never said the taxes were used to fund socialism.

No shit, you don't say. I was in the military when we could have gone to war with Iran in the way early 80's; were you alive yet? Funny to read a kid trying to talk over adults .

And me reading that you have no comprehsion skills is typical as well; WHERE DID I STATE OR INFER WE SHOULD GO INVADE IRAN? You nbeo-cons are so funny, one drops a hint and the rest of the lemmings go into mod mentality mode and run with it. Hysterical, yet predictable.

I'm not calling for an attack, take a prozac and show me where I stated so.

How about you reading and showing where I inferred, not eevn stated, just inferred we should attack them. Riiiight, I know it's not in your makeup to admit you jumped, so we'll just take it for what it is, now quit trying to play with the adults, kiddo.

I'll refresh you:

On one hand NATO and/or the US should invade, OTOH why end up in a long, protracted war where thousands of Americans die changing a fucked up place like Iran?

See, I illustrate and weigh the possibilities, showing how it would be a bad idea to attack.

It's a toughy, but if they go thru with this I say cut em off financially and turn up the heat on the Nukes issue.

Then I show what I would do; basic embargo.

See, reading really is fundamental.

And we were the most prosperous when the top marginal rate was in the 90's. An educated person knows the 90% is there as a deterrent to make people, the real Amricans like Beligian, reinvest rather than profit-take. I bet few actually pay the 90% or whatever the top brkt is, they have been counters telling them what to do. Then fascist pigs come along and chop therate and turn the vibale country to shambles as teh profit-take.

You need a better tax accountant.

Exactly, he/she would tell you to reinvest most profits and keep most of it. Almost no one pays the 90%, that's just to dissuade selling/proifit-taking.
