All hail the recipient!

I call them tax payers and tax users. Tax users includes not just folks on entitlements, but also the ever growing number of gov’t employees (local, state, fed).
Even though gov’t employees pay taxes, their entire earnings are paid to them by tax payers.
Self reliance is the path out of this mess.
“but the new credits such as the child tax credit, Making Work Pay credit, and First Time Homebuyer credit are now exempting middle-class families from the income tax.”
Don’t forget the most costly tax credit (to those who actually pay taxes) which is the Earned Income Tax Credit. It can be as much as $4,800.
Hey, it's free, right?
.
Agreed but....”VAT chance”.
Self reliance can do some serious damage to any tax structure.
If you can grow it, grow it. If it can be fixed, fix it. If you can do without, then go without.
Support single payer government schools? Your a taker.
All Democrats and all RINOs are takers. Vote every one out.
I’m recalling a Heinlein quote that goes something like this”
“There are makers, fakers, and takers. Makers create wealth. Fakers have jobs that pretend to contribute, like government jobs or lawyers but really add nothing. Takers make no pretense, they just take. When the fakers and the takers outnumber the makers, your society is doomed....”
Don’t worry. If they pass a VAT tax, no doubt there will be a mechanism where the low income can get a rebate on that too when they file their returns.
Too bad we can't junk the bloated Unconstitutional entitlements though, and give self-reliance another chance.
Please explain. My views could be summarized by this statement. Thanks.
Not only are they “takers” robbing their productive neighbors, they are contemptuous of the values that made the “givers” productive. They are picking our pockets with one hand, and flipping us off with the other.
The fakers are trying to get the takers to start contributing to the tax pool.
The takers now want the faker’s jobs and their benefits.But since the fakers don’t want to retire and they are jealous about their privileges.
In a fight between a slug and a leech does it matter who wins?
The combined total of fakers and takers long ago exceeded the makers in this country.
Takers = thieves.
