You're right, that is not the answer, but neither is having US taxpayers foot the entire bill, then turn it over to some local thugs and crooks in a year. It is also becoming increasingly clear that I was right in my earlier colloquy with KymerFye that we should have immediately imposed harsh security measures in Iraq. I see now that Ahmed Shalabi agrees with me.
Exactly!!! Im soooooooooo sick of these bleeding hearts. They have the entire game RIGGED so that ANY tax cut, is always a tax cut for the "rich". Well duh... when 1.6% pf tax payers in california pay 50% of the taxes, FOR EXAMPLE, it's IMPOSSIBLE to pass a tax cut that doesn't benefit the rich the most. In fact... this is probably true EVERWHERE in the US. MORE TAX CUTS FOR THE *** TAX PAYERS *** please! Ahem.... cough cough... the RICH! peace axeman
AAA, I know you're not crazy about W, but for the record, are you for or against the current levels of military spending and deficit spending? Of course, I'd also like to hear your arguments. I read yesterday some excerpts from the Cheney interview that the rich tax-cut contributed 25% to the deficit, which was about 5x higher than what I would've expected off the top of my head. Thanks, -b
apparently the taxes that they were paying did not keep them from becoming - in your words - rich. One can only conclude that not cutting their taxes now will not keep them from remaining rich. With so many rich people running around, what's the rush to give them tax relief? Perhaps you can enlighten me?
Your missed my point entirely. In their minds: TAX PAYER = RICH If your making more than 40k a year, most of these people will consider you rich. Thats a JOKE. Try living in california making 40K/year. Ha! Your logic is also horribly flawed. Your basically saying its OK to unfairly abuse people if they were able to overcome the abuse and "make it" anyway. Once again..... punish the successful, is the party line. I guess since I have saved a decent amount of money under the heavy weight of unfair taxation, I should not be provided any relief right? Maybe the wife that is constantly beaten by her husband each night, and manages to survive and continue living with him should also be "left alone" since she is doing OK under her harsh conditions peace axeman
Might you be kind enough to cite anyone, or any group who have proclaimed the threshold of wealth to be 40K? I could be wrong, but I suspect that you are just blowing smoke to cover your flawed meritless argument in defense of the rich. Another way of phrasing that, is that you are making shit up in a stupid and foolish defense of a class of people you do not belong to, nor are likely to be joining. The percentage of your income paid in taxes and fees is grossly disproportionate to the rich, and goes up every year to subsidies cuts for the very people you defend.
