Agreed. I’ve actually talked to some people who believe that our money actually belongs to the government (simply because they print it) and that they can take however much they want.

Man, that's thick.

“Man, that’s thick.”

Here’re the words straight from the horse’s mouth:

“If your point is “The money I make is mine and no one can take it” then you couldn’t be more wrong. Every citizen must give back to the system that gave them a hospital in which to be born, roads on which they can drive, schools in which they can be educated, and so on. Similarly, if you think that everyone should have to pay the same amount of taxes, that’s just ridiculous and you’re dooming thousands, if not millions of people to even further depths of poverty. ‘Besides, you do know that the US mint is operated by the Department of the Treasury, right? Your government actually physically makes the money. It’s theirs to distribute, and theirs to recollect to ensure everyone’s mutual survival.’”

That’s liberal logic for you.

Even worse than it first appeared. LOL

Where do these people think all the wealth comes from? Doesn’t every citizen have a stake in America? Additionally, where do these folks believe they get the right to steal from their fellow citizens? I think everyone should pay a sales tax to support the necessary functions of a modestly sized govmt. No income taxes. None. Never. Everyone paying for the govmt will result in a modest govment. You can bet on that. Oh, and no stealing from your fellow citizens either!
