Austerity measures never work--you can;t cut your way out of a problem.
As opposed to out of control, fraudulent spending? I think not! We need to move far away from these type of a-holes, or send our Socialist leaches over their!

The newly elected Socialist President in France has said 75% tax on those making 1.3M. So, when they have spent all the wealthy folks Euros who continues financing the masses dependence on government.

Fraudulent Spending? Please, enlighten me on what fraudulent spending you are referring to.

I see, so we decide who is an American, and who is not, get enough boats together to house millions of deemed Socialists for the journey 'over there.'--that makes plenty of sense. If you have a problem, send it somewhere else.

Those making over a million per year ought to pay at least 75%.

Here's a small sample:

Just to make sure I do not have this out of context, please clarify for me the following.

Because I have done well for myself and worked hard for my money you believe I should be taxed a minimum of 75% if I earn more than a million dollars?

WHY, and who are you to demand such theft? How about I come take 3/4th's of your $#!t? Did you really earn it? Why should people who have demonstrated industrious skill and resourcesfulness in pursuit of profit be punished? If "progress" in mankind is to truly be achieved, liberals ought to be allowed to overdose on drugs, abort each other even retroactively or starve to death.

I personally blame "child proof" lids on household chemicals.

It is the epitomy of irony that liberals exhault Darwin's Theory, because their political agenda does nothing but empower the useless, weak, stupid, lazy and evil power obsessed sociopaths. If people really embraced the idea of "survival of the fittest", modern liberals would disappear faster than a zit on our collective ass.

Why ought they? This idea must be a result of you disagreeing with yourself one day and then forgetting that you disagreed.

I realize that this is your honest opinion, but it is hard to see it as reasonable. My personal opinion is that a tax rate based on a % is unreasonable. We pay taxes and expect to receive something for that money. If I were to pay a higher dollar amount than someone else then it would be reasonable for me to think that I should expect more for my money. However, it would be unreasonable to think that (constitutional) government services should be available unequally. Because of this, the only reasonable tax is a flat tax. I don't mean a flat percentage. I mean a fixed amount. Everyone pays $1000.00/yr(or whatever dollar amount is passed by law). Any other "tax" is unreasonable.

What is your "reasonable" argument for expecting certain people to pay more than you for the same services?

Just put her," Beretta", on ignore and be done with it. How can y'all keep
conversing with her? Everything she types makes me sick to my stomach!
She's only on here to stir scat. Doubt she ever even held a gun much less
own one.

I can appreciate that. :)

I don't use the "ignore" button. I'm not an ostrich and I hate getting sand in my ears.

I'm sorry about the confusion, I should have worded it different: If you make a million dollars or more per year, you ought to have the living piss taxed out of you.

I hope I cleared it up for you.

I hate buying things. Most of the things I get are from Craigslist "Free" section. There are a lot of good things that people throw away. It's actually quite sad what people throw away.

If by Resourceful you mean creating money out of thin air, well then, tax the piss out of the lott.

You won't get all the Liberal on drug OD's. I am Liberal, and I don't do drugs, hell, I don't even drink. When Obama wins again though, you owe me beer, buddy!


I personally blame "child proof" lids on household chemicals.

I don't believe in Child-Proof anything. The world is a dangerous place, and it is best the kids learn those lessons starting young, from falling off their bike, skinning their knee and getting back-up to jumping off the bed and hitting their dome.

It is the epitomy of irony that liberals exhault Darwin's Theory, because their political agenda does nothing but empower the useless, weak, stupid, lazy and evil power obsessed sociopaths.

Liberal don't promote those types; they just believe that those types ought to be given a chance to pick the pockets of the wealthy.

I doubt it; Liberals are quite resilient. Just when you think you got a tree hugging granola eating electric car driving hemp clothes wearing yoga posing uber-free-lovin vegan who is fresh for the a$$ kicking, they pull out a Beretta 92FS and get to work; no the ammunition is not environmentally friendly!

Put your head in the sand.

You, my friend, take things way to personal. If you can't handle this digital me, then you must have a real hard time out in the Real world.

They ought to because I stated they ought to.

I realize that this is your honest opinion, but it is hard to see it as reasonable. My personal opinion is that a tax rate based on a % is unreasonable.

My opinion about the wealthy having the piss taxed out of the is one of a few things that I am not reasonable about. One of the other things is the Death Penalty. I say: if you're a murderer of innocent people, you ought to be executed, period.

Funny you mention about paying a percentage, the wealthy DO NOT pay the same percentage that the Middle Class pay...don't read you complaining much about that.

That;s not fair! Why should individuals that make under 1,000 bucks a year pay less or no taxes?!

What is your "reasonable" argument for expecting certain people to pay more than you for the same services?

Because they can afford it, and the vast majority of Americans cannot.

Ok... so not reasonable... no reason. That's fine.

Amen to that!! Ya know... it kinda sounds reasonable.

Funny you mention about paying a percentage, the wealthy DO NOT pay the same percentage that the Middle Class pay...don't read you complaining much about that.

Ok... We ALL pay TOO MUCH in TAXES!!! How was that?

That;s not fair! Why should individuals that make under 1,000 bucks a year pay less or no taxes?!

Not sure what your point is here.

Because they can afford it, and the vast majority of Americans cannot.

This is not reasonable. It's so unreasonable that I might question one's sanity if they're sincere.

Oh. You're insane. Well why didn't you just say so? I would have informed you that there are no wealthy.

It's not my job to decide whether or not I am insane; that's your job.

There are no wealthy? I suppose there is nothing more than a drop in a bucket between Granny who takes-in 8,000 bucks a year from social security and Romney making 26 million bucks last year, unemployed to boot.

This discussion is pointless if we're not reasonable. Shall we make an attempt? Give me a reasonable answer.

Why should one person pay more for government services than someone else?
