I vote for the revolution. It’s time to cull the herd anyway, and get rid of the freeloading class that we taxpayers have been supporting for decades.
Somalia is missing a pirate, apparently.
End the Dole! End all government subsidy. Let the rich keep what is theirs. Everyone else is entitled only to what they can earn and keep in the society they choose after balanced taxation. Income should be tax free so that each man keeps what he earns. (Off soapbox)
Biggest Pile of Marxist CLAPTRAP I’ve EVER READ.
I, personally, would rather see money in the hands of the ‘super rich’ than in the hands of a politician. Politicians squander wealth.
>> I strongly agree that the super rich need to pay more of their share.
Really? To pay who’s bills?
Let me tell you the beginning of a story, and see if you can guess how it ends:
“First, they came for the Billionaires. I didn’t have a billion dollars, so I didn’t speak up for them.”
It doesn’t have a happy ending.
Sounds like a DUmmie post
“I vote for the revolution. Its time to cull the herd anyway, and get rid of the freeloading class that we taxpayers have been supporting for decades.”
I’m not far from you. For the people who work for companies we bailed out, like Goldman Sachs, GM, AIG, Fannie, etc., I think that we should simply take everything that everyone makes over $250k per year. If they cannot live on that, then they can go to another company that hasn’t added to the debt that my kids (and future grand kids) will be stuck with.
And once we do that, we need to dig into their assets. I would say that $2 million should be enough for them to live comfortably through retirement (although maybe I could be pushed up a million more).
And I feel the same way about welfare...if you take government money, then you SURE AS HELL should be poor - which means no plasmas, no Nike’s, no I-Pads, etc. If you really need the government to extort other people’s money, then PROVE IT and LIVE IT.
The rich won’t make even a decent appetizer. We’ll be at each other’s throats in no time. That’s what always happens when society aims to for the quick fix.

What is their appropiate share? The top 1% pay 38% of the income taxes in this country. Almost 50% of Americans pay no income tax. What is a fair share for all Americans?
How much should they pay?

FAIR SHARE?????????
Advocates of Obamacare argued the 14th Amendment - equal protection.
QUESTION: why does it apply to health care, and not to taxes? Hmmmm?
It’s always easy to spend someone else’s money.
Thanks for the communist manifesto.
It’s our greedy governmet which is destroying the economy
with unsustainable debt.
Why are you fomenting class warfare? The super rich pay more in taxes than most people will earn in a lifetime.
The economic benefit from those wealthy create capital.
You could plunder the wealth of this earth and never pay down our $60Trillion in unfunded liabilities.
Then what will become of the wealthy? They will cease to exist.
I’m with you.
