Phones swamped, servers crash as voters slam Congress

The majority of taxes are being collected from the majority of income.



So you can cry and whine and piss and moan about how unfair everything is, but you can't actually say what you think is actually fair. Got it.





We're done here.
 
you mean the majority?

sorry, middle class is dying bro. We don't build shit, we only buy it. And how is it all bought?


dun dun dun.........


CREDIT!
 
Life isn't fair. Live within your means.

I CAN'T PAY FUCKING TAXES... MAKE THE RICH PAY IT
















































JUST BOUGHT NEW 22 INCH WHEELS FOR MY CAR, YO.
 
Republicans want spending cuts.
Democrats want revenue increases.

Which side has moved? Stop derping out on me, bro.

CBS POLL:



REUTERS/IPSOS POLL:

Americans overwhelmingly are concerned about the U.S. debt crisis and a majority backs the type of compromise pushed by President Barack Obama, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found on Tuesday.

Do people really still take Moody's seriously? They gave AA ratings to all the subprime mortgage bundles even though they knew they were junk. Is what they say really a concern?
 
You are saying the wealthy setup a tax system that puts them on the hook for 90% of our Federal budget?

Do you realize that 53% of US householRAB aren't paying ANYTHING at all?

The Democrats said, "We want to make sure everyone is paying their fair share of taxes." If that statement were true they'd have to eliminate the earned income tax credits so the government could capture more tax revenue from the entire middle class.
 
Well, yeah. You are looking at it from a Libtard view. ZOMG, let's tax someone for being successful and potentially creates thousanRAB of jobs!



I know that people who are clearly above my tax bracket are paying enough already and don't need to be paying more.





I'm not wrong.

Federal income taxes: ~23%
State income taxes: ~8%
FICA: 7.65%

~39% of income before calculating property taxes, sales taxes, etc.

It is pretty easy for an individual making that amount of cash to be paying 50% of more of their annual income in taxes of some sort.

But that's totally fair, right? Because they are RICH!!!
 
Yeah, and the President said we also may stop paying our Social Security checks to the elderly as well as payments to our disabled veterans.

This shit is all a scare tactic. It won't happen.

Here is a plan to cut the deficit. Repeal the unconstitutional Obamacare legistlation. Increase the retirement age from 62.5 years old to 64. Force all government agencies to take a 5% reduction and let the agencies figure out where they may reduce waste.

It would also help if large corporations, like GE, actually paid corporate taxes... instead of getting handouts from Obama for creating bullshit windmill farms.
 
And you're still referring to population figures as if they hold any meaning at all.

Would you still have a problem if the top 5% were paying 35% of the overall tax bill?



So then the wealthy aren't paying anywhere near 90% of the tax bill, as you'd previously stated.
 
The simple fact is that the government thinks they can spend your money better than you. They are wrong. They are wasteful. They are too large. They are too intrusive. They have a clear spending problem.
 
I think taxes should be based on consumption and not earned income.

Your little chart clearly shows that the bottom 50% aren't paying jack shit...

If the bottom 50% paid SOMETHING we might be in the clear. You can only tax the "rich" so much before they bail out. Look at California, New York, Illinois, Minnesota, etc. The wealthy are leaving these states in large masses and seeking our states like Texas and Florida where they don't have state income taxes.

The more you tighten the ropes... the less of an incentive there is to create new wealth and investment.
