That most of these people were not taxpayers AT ALL?
Mmm-hmm ...that's the claim. Until he makes exceptions for that very group of people.
"poor taste" comments? That's about all I see in FR these days.
Maybe it's catching.
Oh, and normy's last post is exactly right.
Your reply contained nothing substantive as to the fact that making people who had paid nothing into the system pay something into the system is nowhere near “reparations.”
The fact that some people may be exempted from paying something because their taxable income is so low doesn’t change anything.
All these tax reform proposals, just as Perry’s does, will end up exempting an initial amount of income.
As for comments in poor taste, the fact that “other people do it” is not an excuse!
