No, you made a comment that "taxes were higher at one point, and it didn't end America"..... So, if you're for soaking the wealthy, for the horrible crime of being successful, how much of their money should you be allowed to rob?
Yes, I did make that comment because it is true. It was not a commentary on the idea of higher taxes on the rich, it was a factual comment. Taxes on the rich were once far higher and it did not end America, in fact many would say it was on of our best stretches.
I want everyone to pay more taxes, you mean and the really really rich and the really really poor. Unlike you I am not good with freeloading and I think it is morally wrong to run deficits in a booming economy. Neither of the two major parties nor their voters favor spending cuts, thus we need to man up and start paying our way and quit leaving it for our kids and grandkids.
Why do you enjoy being a freeloader?
Oh, I am no "freeloader" there buddy....But, let's think about this....If you think for a minute of all the taxation in your life that you pay, I'd be surprised if you actually keep 50% of your money at the middle income levels....That's Fed, State, Local, Property, Sales, Gas, Licencing, and assorted fees....So, just how much more of my money do you want?
