But you're arguing that it's better, right, and important that we tax the wealthy more so that we can sustain this Ponzi scheme of a Government that is top-heavy. You're arguing that we need to ensure that we have the revenue coming into the Government. For what? What do you want that money to be spent on?
Why should a couple who makes $1 million have to send 35% of that to the Government? Do they really use $350,000 worth of services from the Government?
I would rather cut spending in massive ways, and cut taxes so that they are fair to everyone. Webster's definition of fair, not Washington's definition, or OWS’s definition.
Why are you wanting to the Government to get more revenue at all? They have PLENTY of revenue. They waste it on ridiculous programs. $500,000 to study the viscosity of ketchup? Really?? They need to cut spending, massively, and cut taxes too.
I agree, but the government needs to take care of the spending problem well before talking about massive tax cuts. We do have a $14.8 trillion national debt, just lost our AAA Credit Rating, and have entitlement programs about to go bust. We just can’t ignore that and go chasing after one man’s dream, can we? It already looks like Greece around here. Making social secutiy, welfare disability and food stamp recipients pay a 9% national sales tax, while handing the well off some extra cheese is not, in my opinion, exactly fair.
