"We have transformed ourselves into a system
of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers," |

Where in this is the falsehood? "We have transformed ourselves into a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers," Aren't you being a bit hard on the tea-baggers there. |

![]() "iBoaterer" wrote in message ... Everybody pays taxes, dip****. ---------------------------------------------------------- Anyone happen to catch any of "The History Channel's" series on "The Men who Built America"? Very interesting stories that shows that we've been through all this before. Concerns of the rich getting richer and a shrinking middle class prevailed in the minds of everyone, exactly like the comments and concerns expressed today. Characters like Andrew Carnegie, J.P. Morgan, Henry Ford, John D. Rockerfeller, Cornelius Vanderbilt and others built empires and personal wealth beyond anyone's wildest imagination. The were competitive, ruthless and despised by most for being so successful, wealthy and profitable, to the point where Congress broke up Rockerfeller's "Standard Oil" only to spawn several new monster companies that included Exon and Mobile that combined to become even greater. These men created America's "Industrial Revolution" and generated millions upon millions of new jobs that established America's strong and healthy middle class and the United States became the world's leading manufacturing country with a standard of living for everyone that was the envy of the world. The government did not create these jobs. The entrepreneurial ideas and money of these then hated people did. Ironically, they also became the world's greatest philanthropists in their later years as well. Interesting stories, especially for those who think big business is all bad and the government should be in charge of creating jobs and/or being the great provider. |

FWIW, I consider FICA, a forced deposit into a retirement plan, not a tax. === It's actually more of a tax at this point since the money is not set aside like it would be in an actual retirement plan. |
