I totally agree with this. I was disappointed when Pres. Reagan began the "Earned Income Tax Credit" which gave people "back money" that they hadn't paid in the first place.

Not only did the IRS remove people from income tax rolls, it gave them money that they hadn't even earned in the first place!!!

Now not only do millions of Americans get this money, even illegal aliens who file taxes (presumably under false SS nos.) get money that they've not earned.

Now less than one-half of Americans pay any income taxes. Whenever a tax reduction is proposed, these very same American non-taxpayers, scream about "the rich getting tax breaks."

I can even go one step further - only those who pay taxes have any right to vote!!!

Non-taxpayers vote in people who promise to take from those who do pay taxes and give to those who do not, get elected. Non-taxpayers vote in people whose aim is to take even more from the taxpayers!

Now the government is demanding that we give up our private health insurance so that we can pay into a pot to continue the wealth transfer through the so-called "health care" business. Anyone who shows up at an emergency room is treated whether they can pay or not. The rest of us pay for their bill. If that's not bad enough, now Obama is demanding that I give up an insurance policy that I pay for in favor of his kind of "government insurance." Congress sure as hell is not going to be forced into this scam and neither is any government employee!!!

If this isn't financial tyranny and slavery, I don't know what is.

Its OK. A lot of us physicians refuse to become governmental employees. There is a doctor shortage already. Watch what happens if they succeed in passing nationalized health care

Exactly. If you are a drain on society then you shouldn’t be allowed to vote.
