the economy is anemic because the cost of doing business is so high. All the taxes to support socialist programs increase the cost of doing business in America.
Wow, not even a little bit true.

I can start with a simple thing like tax matching.
How? Could it be by paying your taxes and letting a small percentage of that tax debt go to help Americans trapped in circumstances not of their creation?Sometimes, things are going well and children are a blessing. Then, as one mentioned, the company skips town, the value of ones house plummets, and escape from the situation is impossible.
That is where Americans jump to help Americans.
Unfortunately, the government, for years, has opted to have Americans help the Americans it chooses they should help....and those that want to help can no longer help those they themseleves deem need the help.
And the viscious circle continues.
Yes, bad things happen to good and bad people, in all sorts of situations. And I am all for giving help to people that deserve it. People that wallow in poverty without any attempt to help their situation don't deserve my help any longer. There is a limit to the good nature of ones neighbors. I will help someone truly in need and truly trying to fix their issues.
Or will you come to Youngstown Ohio, Monaca Pennsylvania, Weirton West Virginia, Rome New York, Dearborn Michigan and help Americans trapped by no jobs, falling housing prices and no real prospects?
Maybe, just maybe, the federal government has some programs in place for just such circumstances. Hell. Making life a little easier for these hard working American families is a wiser use of tax dollars than giving a defense contractor $700 to make a better toilet seat!
Le tme see if I have this straight. The right wingers are pushing for a new tax a consumption tax on top of the taxes we already have?
Finding a job is tough and mentally exhausting, but it has to be done.

No... the Fair Tax Bill specifically states that it does not take affect UNTIL the repeal of the 16th Amendment. Written in that way to avoid the very real threat of two forms of taxation.

But... what if there aren't enough jobs to go around. Are there enough living wage jobs in this country for every able adult? Not even close.

Ohh so it is a just hooplah and is not going to happen. ok, thanks.
Why did I expect anything else from the right?

Hooplah?
No, it is actually a grassroots attempt to change the tax laws.
Ever going to happen?
Hell no, it won't happen because it removes power from Congress to control us.

I can start with a simple thing like tax matching.
And I can start with a simple thing like outsourcing, downsizing, freezing pay, working skeleton crews, firing longtime employees in order to hire someone for $10 an hour etc. The economy is anemic due to the "vodoo economics" trickle down fiasco for the past decade. All tax incentives went to the rich to no effect. NO jobs. NO booming economy. No "prosperity for everyone". When will you free market fools realize that top down doesn't work. You have to shore up the consumer that SPENDS. Bottom up. Oh wait, you guys are only concerned about the already wealthy. My bad...

Are you actually claiming that people with little money consume more than the wealthy?
The wealthy pay a much higher percentage of their income in taxes than anyone else. they also have many purchases, some very large, in which sales and property tax are paid.
You should be thanking them. They pay part of your share of things.
Define "Able"But... what if there aren't enough jobs to go around. Are there enough living wage jobs in this country for every able adult? Not even close.

How do 1K/day coke habits figure in to living wage?
At less than $1/bottle, that is a lot of coke.
You should be thanking them. They pay part of your share of things.
No hell they don't. They pay a much smaller percentage of their "income" than I pay and nothing on their entire "wealth" - which my entire "wealth" is my income - especially if they make money in the market instead of pulling a paycheck. 100% of my income is taxed for SS, yet only a pittance of theirs. No, they do not pay my way at all.
