'equal' does not necessarily mean 'fair'. you were right the 1st time: everyone should pay a fair tax *Any disparity, any exclusion, deduction, exemption, credit, or dependency allowance creates special interests and an inequity. that's true. and we, as a society, have decided that things like raising kinds, health insurance, having a viable middle class, are values that we want to promote via having them as special interests. and that is fair. |

Flat taxes distort the least and hence are the way to go. ?? why does allowing people to buy homes and feed and educate their kids 'distort' the market? that's why the middle class should pay less than the ultrawealthy. that's what a progressive tax permits. the existence of a middle class. Because he actually understand what you do not; non-flat taxes on income distort the economy. and taxing the middle class, while allowing an increasing accumulation of wealth by the richest 0.1% of our society is destroying the middle class in this country. middle class incomes haven't increased in 30 years, after adjusting for inflation. in the last 8 years, productivity has increased about 20% but none of that increase has gone to the middle class, while the wealthy have increased their share of the national wealth. : :To :help the middle class? Hell no. He has no clue how you live. Neither :does McCain or his wife. Anybody got a quarter mil earrings for the :wife lately? Thought not. Well, you can thank the Reagan / Bush tax :cuts for them getting richer and richer and ****ing away more than :you'd pay on a house for ear candy. : Jealousy is SO ugly, Frank. *You and your "eat the rich; the poor are tough and stringy" crowd make me nauseous. *Where do you think the jobs come from? that would be nice if unemployment hadn't increased 30% under bush's tax cut policy : :Look at how many people are millionaires or billionaires.

These tax cuts are killing :the US : Now go look at who is paying the taxes, Frank... the rich only want to focus on payroll taxes. when you include ALL taxes, the middle class is being hammered. |

ANY taxation scheme can be made to work, including the rather preposterous Rube Goldbergery we operate under now. Where do people get the idea that the wealthy apparently just sit on their money or bury it or some such silliness? why do the rich think the middle class doesn't deserve enough money to buy a house, feed their kids, and have a car after working so hard? why are the rich biased against an honest day's work? |

Yes, and you know JFK changed that because it was ****ing up the economy so badly, right? No Fred you're a liar and an idiot. He cut taxes as there was no government spending or deficit at the time and he was concerned that there would be too much money in the Federal treasury and that would distort the economy. We have not been in that condition since. With the rising debt (doubled under this idiot), and the interest in the debt, up to $405 billion this year, WE NEED TO **** CAN the tax cuts. WHY DO YOU THINK REAGAN HAD THE LARGEST TAX INCREASE IN HISTORY RIGHT AFTER HE HAD THE LARGEST TAX CUT? IT DID NOT WORK. IT WAS VOODOO ECONOMICS. Bush I was right in that case. You may think you have a degree in the field but you're an idiot who doesn't know what he's talking about. Go back in your cage and play with your feces until its feeding time. |
