Man some of you just don't get it. The protesters just 'don't want to pay for shit'...'they're all redneck hillbillies'...'taxes are the cornerstone of democracy'. What world do you all live in? Taxes are the cornerstone of Democracy?!? Maybe some of you are just complete fucking losers who don't pay 30% of your total income. I do. But maybe you don't...and you're fine with the 250k + earners paying much larger percentages than you do, since you're now getting back what, $13 a week or something? What a stimulus! You know that this is actually how our current form of taxation was presented to us citizens in the first place... only the very well off would pay ANY taxes. Now who pays taxes? All of us except for the very poorest of the poor. Wake the fuck up. When they start spending our money responsibly then I'm all for some taxes. But they don't. They haven't. Sure let's argue about what taxes do, infrastructure, schools, military ... all of which have monstrously been failures. But let's pay more. Taxes are the corner stone of Democracy, they weren't for some 130 years, you know, after we democratized and shit.
I guess you all like the fact that our government can basically take whatever they want and pay for things like wars. haha. Yeah taxes are the cornerstone of a democracy. Sounds like liberty and freedom to me. We're just modern serfs who are 'allowed' currently to do whatever we want with our remaining 70%, oh wait, no sorry, if you own a house you've got property taxes...a car, sales taxes even if you buy it used and the person who bought it new paid sales taxes on it already. This is not a Democrat/Republican thing you fucking inbred simpletons. You may fall for your party rhetoric that this is 'Socialism' or that 'Republicans just don't want to pay for stuff' but those are only the talking points in your party handbooks. I hate to use the term, since Rush Douchebag uses it but you're all suckers for the drive-by media. Your CNN's tell you that the people who attended were 'Extremists' Your Fox news tells you they were 'Great Americans.' And you believe their snapshot of an opinion. Get off it. See the issues for the issues. Or no, let's just keep going round and round with the he said she said game. Fox is worse, no MSNBC is worse... Republicans are hillbillies, Democrats are hippy losers who milk the system. How's the feeling of being a rat on a wheel. Keep playing the game, gives them ratings and you a sense of having a team. Safety in numbers. You know that Republicans who watch Fox justify the validity of their channel based on the fact that it has the highest ratings. You partyline liberals are guilty of the same bullshit because you're surrounded by people who spit dumb rhetoric and somehow, you, feel, right, because of it. When in reality, the truth lies closer to the middle, and deep down you fucking know it.
