I still say letting retired people off the hock because they are living on savings reduces the pool of people that are impacted by federal taxes and that is a bad thing.

Exactly! Even though they paid taxes when they earned it, more taxes when they put it in the bank and collected interest or were taxed when they earned capital gains or dividends. Even if they still pay taxes on their interest and dividends, it's not enough. We should just take it all, ungrateful old bastards /idiot rant off

Sound good?

No it does not sound good. But why should some people pay taxes and not others? Taxes should be charged based on services used not the ‘ability to pay.’
