Naïve...

If Paul Ryan's budget had gotten through, it would be even worse... I hope for the sake of all you Americans (except Hedge) that economy-destroying proposals like this get the ridicule they deserve.

When I was a teenager in school they taught me that Medieval tithe was an extortion imposed on the peasants.
Tithe was a 10% tax.
It is naive to think that when government has more tax money we'll build a better society. What will happen, they will find a way to suck this money out of the budget, ie. by starting a war or ordering $18m websites that double what other organisations did already for their own $20K

It is time for the flat tax, 15% for everyone in the entire country wealthy or poor and no more tax write offs.. And then anarchy ensues... :) But seriously it should be that, Some of us are paying more for taxes than GE is this year lol.

the average tax payer is easy prey for the wealthy elite.
the game is rigged
the political debate is exactly that ... political.
taxes is our token of servitude.

A flat tax sounds nice in principle but would be financially suicidal. Has it ever been tried before? How do you finance a country with a flat tax?
We do know that a progressive tax works in a capitalist society. Look back at 50s and 60s era America, rich paid 90% on their earnings over a certain amount and we always had balanced budgets and everyone could afford a home and a nice retirement. It was when politicians listened to their rich buddies and started lowering tax rates down to 30% for the rich during the 80s that the country started running huge deficits.

Considering the kind of money I vague recall epill boasted to be making, $10K sounds like pittance.
So what are the standards here? Rich people—tax the shit out of them, fellow designers—take your hands off our money?
- those were the days.. i did earn a lot back then.. fun times.. this 10K was 1/4 of my earnings..e-pill

Money is an anachronism, which needs to be abandoned together with VHS tapes and gramophones
If you miss something in your life -- go to a demonstration, who the fuck cares. It is every citizen's right and responsibility to demand what he wants and how he want things to be
If 299 million human cattle gorge at the feeding trough for 300 years and are perfectly fine with it, what exactly is the problem?
Normal people have everything they need, if not, it can be easily resolved by straining a fraction of the brain
Only stupid scum at the lower stages of development are interested in these questions. Their needs have no limits,they are cadavers, who are never satisfied materially You can walk on them in boots
and defecate, and they will ask for more, because theyre subhuman, slaves and shiteaters.Americans are mindless lemmings brainwashed by advertising and marketing.
Fortunately, they are easily manageable, you could start showing a different picture at the zombie box, and at some point they would turn into ascetics even.To kill them would be a blessing. They are not people, but human spam

How does what work, Jaline? Owing 10k? That would be about what a 1099 employee would pay on 35-40k of claimed income, after deductions
