OK, this part isn't right:

Wait...What?

This is another example of what he was talking about. The article explains why they want to raise rates and it has nothing to do with carrying higher reserves. They want to raise rates because that segment of their business is operating at a loss.

Dude that quote is from the ceo of the company from the article. Where he says it's about raising reserves.

Yes, it's the CEO. You're still confused about what he's saying though. The article is clear that beefing up reserves is not related to the rate increase request. Not clear enough for you though, apparently.

I see no loss, I see the opposite: a profit so excessive that they refund money to customers and hoard the rest under the guise of reserves.

It's no use - he's like a parrot trained by DNC talking points. Capitalism bad. Too much profit, squawk.

That is some excellent math, Mr Puppet.

Speaking of reading comprehension, this is pretty awful. Nowhere does he say that's his "solution to the economy". He advocates it as a solution to the budget deficit.

Surely someone with as much faux sophistication on this topic as yourself understands thathat our structural unemployment trends are the result of more than just what the top marginal rate happens to be?

Sweet of you to come to his defense.

Raising taxes on all tax payers is his idea to fix the deficit - ok. That obviously has a direct effect on the economy, which is implied. But, whatever. Watching his Pelosiesque brain function is sad and entertaining and your defense of it/him shows that you enjoy arguing on message boards more than saying anything constructive.

Except you conveniently overlook the part where I say....it will also take cuts in spending, and reform of entitlement programs to fix this whole mess. Keep talkin' outta your ass, though; that's what we expect.

You said you would raise rates on all tax brackets. 'Nuff said.

Yep. Especially on those who've made out like bandits since 2001 while the rest of society lags far, far behind. Don't be sad though...as you have plenty of tea party types to accompany you on the, "Screw the rest of ya'all, I got mine!" bandwagon.
