its not a conspiracy its fact. lefties like you do the bidding of the private central bank pretending there is a reason for an inheritance tax. or income taxes. why the hell should a person's income be stolen from him via taxes... or the inheritance tax? income and inheritance taxes are just population control. they are completely unnecessary when the govt runs trillion dollar deficits. why not just print a little more an end the income tax. The private central bank creates trillions of dollars on its own and sends the money all over the world so the u.s. currency gets devalued year after year. there is no reason for an income tax. Also note, perhaps it would not be so profitable leveraging up if the govt did not go along with the cronies on too big to fail. This is not a anti bank rant as much as an anti tax argument. The lefts response to the inequality is more govt and more taxes. The reality is more taxes and more govt supports more wealth concentration in the hands of the cronies. Limited govt has always been the most fair.
I don't disagree. For example: http://www.thoughtleader.co.za/kaguremugo/2014/01/16/the-church-has-more-money-than-god/ However, I believe that this pope means what he says. It would be impossible for him to dissolve the entire church, fire all the cardinals etc. He has to work within the confines of what he is elected to do. Same thing with Obama. I truly believe that he wants to do everything he says. He just can't do it and not risk the security of the country, etc. Compromise is somehow at the heart of all of these things, and concience is what motivates us to compromise.
I don't have a problem. These billionaires have nothing to do with me. It is always easy to take out your own failings on others by stealing from them. You have done nothing to deserve anything from them.
this is what a leftist drones do when their delusional statements about taxes and govt are confronted by truth. end income taxes now... they are just population control. as far as me wanting the cake my father earned. my dad passed away a few years ago. my mom is likely to burn through the majority of what was left because she is afraid to invest any money. so this is not about me... its about america's selfish left be prevented from screwing future generations out of what is left of the hard work or previous generations.
High inheritance tax will discourage people from working more hard. May be inheritance can be taxed at long term capital gains rate or something. It is not the tax that solves the issue, the main thing is to have poor get more disposable income in their pockets to save and also consume more. That gives a boost to the economy and those who work really hard and smart also end up getting rich and mega rich.
The problem is not taxes. They are required. Without taxes, there will be no income for the government. Without income, how can the government provide/maintain the infrastructure that business need to be competitive? Also what about the maintaining a military for country defense. How is the government going to pay for that? A little forgotten fact is that a lot of the basic research and development are performed by the government. The result of that research is then used by private business to generate profit (like memory foam/ Tempurpedic). The hope is that business using those basic research will generate income which goes back to the government in form of income tax. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Multinational business have skewed the tax code so that they can offshore their income to an extent that they pay little or no income tax (some thing national and small business can't do). If we were to eliminate the tax loop holes for the super wealthy and the multinationals, we can reduce the taxes paid by the middle class and small business. It is unfortunate that the politicians have convinced US citizens that taxes are not required. Taxes are required. The real question is who is going to pay. The super rich or the middle class? Currently due to the influences of the super rich, the middle class is footing the burden while they enjoy the benefits provided by the government and their politicians.
