5 thoughts on “Jason Lewis on Fox News: the State of the Union

  1. Hey Jason did you notice the beginning of Mitch Mcconnell remarks lastnight i think he took a hit at Gingrich when he mention Obama and marriage and mention that we needed a president with family values.Love your show..Jeff from Efland N.C.

  2. Obama keeps saying “I just want to give everyone a fair shot” Please tell me Mr. President, who doesn’t have a fair shot?

  3. Nice job Jason. You made many good points. As always, good to hear your view as it makes good sense.

  4. What is this obsession with 47% on the bottom not having a Federal Income Tax liability? Does their $8.73 really mean all that much?
    What’s a great way to correct that? Higher wages and higher employment, but then Jason will cry about wage increases raising costs making them essentially useless. Effectively continuing the problem (low wages & unemployment) that he is complaining about.

    And the flat tax? A couple of days ago Jason whipped out his favourite “a suit purchaser does not get asked their income before determining the price” example, of course mixing hard costs of durable goods and % basis of income along the way. Instead the suit purchaser has to ask himself what % of his income the suit composes.

    And finally, this absurd notion that the wealthy use less services than the poor. The wealthy make their wealth by engaging in commerce no? That means roads, buildings, rail, infrastructure of all kinds. The wealthy benefit from all of this being there, and the work of the less fortunate, and their wealth grows because of the use of said infrastructure. Let’s not forget handshake deals with politicians that grant them all manner of access that your average Joe simply does not have. Then of course you have fire/police protection of your property. Your property tends to be of a higher value to demonstrate the wealth. To simply assert that the wealthy don’t use services, or better yet don’t have services offered to them, is simply outrageous.

  5. Solid & smooth points as usual Jason. Leslie looked quite flustered & fired up in a flash. Her confidence in Obama must be wavering.
