LOL i sound like a bleeding heart liberal for saying that the government should give more tax cuts? What planet are we on Naderville.
Yes the top 5 percent pay most of the taxes, but if you have two income house of two people making 50 - 70 grand a year then they fit into that bracket, you get your facts straight. The middle class stretches from 60k to around 500k a year. Subtract taxes and 1/3 of your dollar goes to help fund welfare for immigrants and prescription drugs for those who are elderly.
The scholarships given to middle class are usually merit driven not need based as they are already disqualified from merit based scholarship. My cousin is going to the local state university and his dad and his mom combined make less than 120k and receive no "need based aid" but they do receive loans that have to be repaid and the scholarships that he received from his high school.
Hey I have an idea, how about instead of letting the south west become little Mexico and taking all my money that I will be making and enact a school voucher program, wait a minute that is too liberal for you. This is more to your liking how about more taxes yeah because we all know 30% just isn't enough.
Someone or a two income family making 50-70k, is NOT in the top 5% of tax payers.
The president's drugs for elders is a PROPOSAL and part of a plan that will begin to dismantle and privatize Social Security. NO ONE IS NOW PAYHING FOR PERSCRIPTION DRUGS FOR THE ELDERLY!
Anyone earning 1/2 a million a year, belongs to the upper middle class and is far removed from those with a gross income of 50-70k, who DO get full benefits, which are phased out, the higher one's income.
You are NOT arguing with facts, you are making things up, and you are making yourself look foolish, in the bargain.
You're really off the deep end. Calm down,use facts, don't accuse others of wanting things they don't, and stop childishly inventing things to make your points. Better still, go talk to some REAL black Conservatives here, like trublackman, who know what they're talking about, unlike you, and who don't use race or class,nor phony made up garbages, to debate.
