ABC's match-omatic shows how the candidates aren't bringing it home

The new source of division is to say, ‘Let’s find the very most successful in our country and say they’re bad guys. Go after ‘em. And let’s divide America.’ Look, this nation is one nation under God. Dividing America is not going to work out. In this country, prosperity has never trickled down from the wealthy few. Prosperity has always come from the bottom up, from a strong and growing middle class. --- except is either true? Mitt's not saying protect the middle class (or if he has, that not the pic they are presenting, or of protecting small business. 250K as middle class. But do you really think Obama is for the middle class? He'll happily tax them out existence too. Neither care about it. Rich and poor, except Obama gives handouts to the poor. Mitt will buy a successful business, turn a profit and make you poor. If you’re an American manufacturer, you should get a bigger tax cut. If you’re a high-tech manufacturer, we should double the tax deduction you get for making your products here. And if you want to relocate in a community that was hit hard when a factory left town, you should get help financing a new plant, equipment, or training for new workers. So my message is simple. It is time to stop rewarding businesses that ship jobs overseas, and start rewarding companies that create jobs right here in America. I would like to see our tax rates flatter. I’d like to see our code simpler. I’d like to see the special breaks that we have in the code taken out. That’s one of the reasons why I take the corporate rate from 35% down to 25%, is to take out some of the special deals. What I want to do is to take our precious dollars and focus them on the people in this country that have been hurt the most, and that’s the middle class. ----NAFTA. 'nuff said. Both are entranced with making americans poorer. Mitt to have them dependent on their job (a bit of slavery) and terrified to lose it. Obama to have you dependent on the govt terrified to lost its benefits. Lower Gas Prices You know we can’t just drill our way to lower gas prices. If we’re going to take control of our energy future and can start avoiding these annual gas price spikes that happen every year -- when the economy starts getting better, world demand starts increasing, turmoil in the Middle East or some other parts of the world -- if we’re going to avoid being at the mercy of these world events, we’ve got to have a sustained, all-of-the-above strategy that develops every available source of American energy. Yes, oil and gas, but also wind and solar and nuclear and biofuels, and more. The onslaught of regulations -- holding off on drilling in the Gulf; holding off on drilling in the Outer Continental Shelf; holding off on drilling in Alaska; trying to impose the federal government into fracking regulations...all the regulations relating to coal -- these things have made the cost of energy go up. --------ffpppt. both. you aren't going to use hamster ball energy to run your car. we need to do both and we're doing neither. we need to safely drill, safely safely safely ECONOMY: REGULATORS Regulators Amok or Protecting the People We’ve all paid the price for lenders who sold mortgages to people who couldn’t afford them, and buyers who knew they couldn’t afford them. That’s why we need smart regulations to prevent irresponsible behavior. Rules to prevent financial fraud or toxic dumping or faulty medical devices, these don’t destroy the free market. They make the free market work better. We can also count the vast expansion of costly and cumbersome regulation of sectors of the economy, ranging from energy to finance to health care. When the price of doing business in America rises, it does not come as a surprise that entrepreneurs and enterprises cut back, let employees go, and delay hiring. ----------------sounds like we're talking of money lenders here... who, we're not. talking all regs. and citing big 'uns., not the costly (unneccessary) duplicated crap that needs to be gotten rid of ...nuff for now.
