First, I haven't read the entire thread so this may be redundant. Taxes are a necessary thing to run the country. We have a government to pay, military to pay, judicial system, infrastucture to build and maintain... Where do you think the money will come from? Trees? Now, that said, then the discussion of entitlments begins. Welfare, healthcare, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid... Are they necessary? Different people have different opinions on those things so taxes pay for those things as the government requires. So taxes are necessary. Now, here's a tid bit. About 15 years ago a study was done based on every known civilization that has existed throughout history and how taxes/fees related to the well being of the people and country. They determined that countries are at their best when total taxation (and fees) are about 12-14% and get worse as it gets higher. The point of "no return" when a civilization gets to a taxation above 20% as it leads to social issues and immoralities and the slope to the end of that nation begins. We're at about 24-26% now. Food for thought.
Actually I do not. I read parts of it about 10 years ago. As I recall, it was a PHD project and it made a lot of sense. The bottom line is that when taxes get to a certain point to support social or military issues, it creates a set of problems that are a difinitive slippery slope that culminates to the end of that civilization. Nations with a more stable tax base fair much better. It also noted that too little taxation creates such a weak country that it also fails to hold on as such.
Yeah for the poor. Welcome to the new American everyone. Brainwashed and doesn't even know it. I make like, 125 grand a year.... (BEFORE taxes) Enjoy your speed boats mexicans. It was my pleasure. (BUILD THE FUCKING FENCE!!!!!!!!)
The speed boats would have been more beneficial to them before they got here. I'd like to raise taxes to pay for equipping every Mexican who wants to get here illegally with a speed boat.
Well if WHITE illegals actually exist I "feel" like they'd work their asses of while here. Not here for a free hand out. (You know what I mean/who I'm talking about) "Certain people" who aren't willing to pay the price. (PM me for who I'm talking about)
I just try to make sure the right information gets out there (when its something I actually know about lol)
Wait, someone is passing out speed boats? Can I get one? Preferably an old wooden one, circa 1950's, chris craft or a century? A nice little inboard... plus, a serious question. What row are your seats in?
This is the poster who used some sort of weird grammar and spelling for a while in an attempt to be funny. He's definitely the former... nothing wrong with being warped, but warped sometimes isn't funny. Ed O.
