So, you would cut off all the millions of retired social security
recipients, eh?



No. But I would definitely privatize social security so this
Democrat-created blackhole dies a much-deserved death.

The funny thing about Social Security is that it was a Democrat-founded
socialistic policy that is now seen to have failed miserably. Yet, the

Dems
make it their number one scare-tactic issue. That's the foundation of

your
party, however. Get enough people hooked on the Government's tit, and

then
blame the big ol' bad Republicans for taking it away. You guys are like

the
corner drug dealers...but you're pushing economic handouts rather than
drugs.


Awww, poor baby.


I'm not poor, but if I were, it'd most likely be because of today's unfair
progressive tax system.

I find it mildly amusing that your d.f. accusations
about me being a "socialist" are based upon my support of the present
system of taxation in this country.


....which, according to your own definition, is socialism.


Not that I find the tag of
"socialist" in any way offensive


Of course not. That's most people's beef with Democrats. They think there
is nothing wrong with Socialism.

as I find very little to dislike about
the systems of modern democratic socialism practiced in, say, Norway, or
some of the other northern European nations.

As for our tax rates, I don't believe they are "progressive" enough
against the truly wealthy. Above certain levels of income, I'd support a
50% tax rate, and I'd tax *all* income. Every bit of it.


I believe in taxing *all* income as well...at an *equal* rate across the
board. Do away with exemptions and tax it all...but at a flat tax.
