Has shared his birthday with the tax man all his life? No wonder he hates government. I don't hate government. I hate the idea of 60% of the population working for the government, while the other 40% draw welfare. -- John H For a great time, go here first... http://tinyurl.com/ygqxs5v Stop pulling numbers from your rear end. While the US gov't is the biggest employer, both state and fed gov'ts combined employ about 8%. If you add the Post Office, it bumps it up slightly (add 2 million). If you add education, it ends up about 17% or so. Here are two links. Feel free to ignore them. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_perce...ent_employ ed http://www.heartland.org/policybot/r... dy_Says.html Those are old numbers. Fact is, working non-government signifigant tax paying people are a minority in the USA and Canada. That is why they are enslaved tax servants of the majority. The number I have is of those paying more than $3000 in taxes, not working for government and currently employed is about the 100M mark. So 230M people outvote the working tax slave by over 2:1. Now that tells us why losers, debtors and government realy want to screw he working taxpayer. -- The Liberal way, take no responsibility. You're an idiot. John claimed that 60% are "working for the government." That's complete hogwash. Taxes have gone DOWN under Obama. Feel free to continue to make a fool out of yourself. Agreed if that was the case. It isn't 60%. But it is 1 in 7 of working class, excluding those on welfare etc. But if you add in businesses that survive because of goverment bloat, could be 1 in 5. That is a pretty high load. Fact is, less than 1/3 of the population is contributing economic wealth. The reset are not. But if you said 60% would get global government health care benefits but not actively contribute to government health care, you would be about right, or perhaps a little low. Which is why Obamanomics will fail. Taxes haven't gone down unless you lost a job and now have one that pays less thus less taxes. That isn't something Obama wants made public. Take this chart: http://portalseven.com/banks/Failed_Banks_List_2010.jsp When Obama should have raised interest rates to reflect more income for risk to the banks, he lowered them. Well, it crashes the banks. Self induced by government liberal debt-money management. Lets face it, all the Obama BS in the world isn't going to change what has happened. Workers are getting sucked dry from fat government. -- Time to ask ask, is our government serving us or are we serving the government? You're all over the map. Stick to the subject. You're claiming there's some huge percentage of gov't workers (or John is and you're following). That's complete bs. No, it is not. Was reading it from the government web site of all places. Go read it for yourself. The fact is somewheres about or less than 30% of the people work in a non-government job and pay any signifigant amount of taxes. 1/7 or someting like that work for civic, state, federal governemnts. The balance is government, welfare, unemployed, children, retired low income and the like. Part of why Obama is going broke is not increased spending but the revenue drop associated with lower wages, unemployment and businesses losing money don't pay taxes. Add governemnt increases in corruption bailout, you add up to $1.7 trillion deficits being added to the 30% that pay for it. Pretty high load, certainly not sustainable. You're full of it wrt to taxes. Even Palin got it right. She just couldn't understand that taxes were higher under Bush, so she claimed 100 days is terrible, and of course she's an idiot also. As to rest of your post, you're just off the deep end. Think what you want. You are just a plumper wanting others to pay for it. -- Time to ask, is our government serving us or are we serving the government? |
