So you accept my deal?
Because I think I’ve been pretty clear I OPPOSE the income tax.
I just know that the reality is that there is NO WAY the numbers can ever reasonably add up without making the deficit even larger.... but, I don’t personally care (I do care for my kids/grandkids) but by all means, do it.
But as for a government dependent like you? Explaining FICA and Medicare taxes to me? Save your breath and save yourself from looking foolish. I know exactly what I’ve paid in FICA over my lifetime and I’ve also done the math: I’ll be getting screwed. Even ignoring the employer match? I figured years ago, I’d probably need to live to nearly 200 in order for my government social security deductions to pay out what I’d be able to make if I had been allowed to keep the money.
But of course... the government needs my money. To pay YOU.
Get mental help.
