The rich are waging class warfare on the poor

A certain degree of welfare is cheaper than revolution.

And less likely to get one killed.

 

It's not so much as the rich stealing from the poor... it's more like the rich are getting richer, the poor are staying poor or getting poorer.

 

It is the left wing of the Democratic Party that is fomenting class warfare - it's their best and quite frankly only hope.

 

One alternative is to raise taxes by a 5% surtax on the rich.

To keep things fair, all workers could be taxed 5% of their wages as well for that surtax. Wages have to compete worldwide now and your politicians and journalists know that. Organized labor has been allowed to run rampant since the 1970s.

The net result is that the government income would improve and give more room to make the necessary cuts. One trouble with government is that it never seems to get smaller. Therefore there must be massive waste that someone like "chainsaw al" could fix if he took over the "company".

While we are at it, let's have a surcharge on journalists and politicians called a BS surtax. Every time they make a statement that is untrue, they have to kick in 20 dollars to the surtax fund. That alone should wipe out the national debt!

 

They charge you 20 % when you exchange currency.



unless you are in the top 1% .

 

This is one obvious tactic by the rich supporters. claiming poor are class warfaring, though poor seem to be incapable of winning a battle which is funny. As the rich got richer, the poor got poorer, somehow the poor is waging class warfare on the rich. All i can say is LOL.

For all the unions, all the progressive taxes, all the retoric by the rich, all the paying no income taxes, the poor stealing from the rich, still after 30 years, the poor got poorer and the rich got richer!

 

the poor get poorer and the rich get richer for a pretty simple reason- the rich lend the poor money so that they can live beyond their means for a little while- and then the poor pay interest on the debt for the rest of their lives giving the rich more of their money. well that and how the information age has made everyone more efficient- these advantages are used much better by the top of the top, so naturally they are able to distance themselves a bit more from everyone else.

the great thing about america though- is that it is possible to become one of those top 1%. several of the richest people in the world didn't come from wealth cradle to grave, but got there themselves. that is what the american dream really is. who cares what the gap between rich and poor is when you can be born into poverty and die shitting on a golden toilet. there aren't many places in the world with that kind of economic freedom, and it is just plain impossible to do in communist or socialist countries where becoming wealthy is impossible because they fear the gap.

i love the gap, i just hope i can close it and get into that top 1%.

 

It's not hard to see why you're a failure.

 

Mr. Failure still could not and simply would not answer your question.

 

Families making less than $50K per year do not pay any federal income tax - in fact, if they fill out a tax return they get check from the US Treasury in the form of an earned income tax credit.

The fact of the matter is that half of US adults pay no federal income tax at all.

Your original premise is as unconvincing as you are clueless.
