Reagan started this ball rolling on dropping people from the tax roles. One of The Gipper’s very few bad calls.

You’ll know if the tipping point has been reached if Obama wins. If it has there is no going back because when a majority can vote themselves more of a minorities money that is exactly what they will do in perpetuity until it all comes crashing down.

Well maybe if the 50.5% would stop voting liberal Democrat - but they’re not going to do that.

So smile while you pay your taxes. You voted for it. :)

All the RICH Progressives constantly harp on how they are against the rich. And they’re going to punish the rich (themselves) by imposing an INCOME tax.

Thirty years ago I worked for William Herbert Hunt and Nelson Bunker Hunt, at that time both billionaires at #’s 5 & 3 on the Forbes list of world’s wealthiest men. My salary was $31,200/year. On several years I paid more INCOME taxes than the Hunt brothers did, even though they were billionaires, and I was worth what I took home each week. This was because there were years when their businesses lost money, i.e. no income no taxee.

I am not a punish the rich guy. But if I were, I would not use an INCOME tax to do so. The taxpayer group most associated with INCOME are the wage earners, not the wealthy 1%. The wealthy are DEFINED by wealth, i.e. assets/net worth. So if I were to punish the wealthy with a tax, it would be a tax on ASSETS or NET WORTH, not INCOME.

Either the leaders proposing income taxes on the wealthy are themselves remarkably stupid, or they actually intend to raise taxes on the working middle class rather than the wealthy (themselves).

And we get this nice notice in the mail yesterday: If we are on any kind of public assistance program, we can get a FREE CELL PHONE with 250 minutes per month....did I mention that it is FREE? Add a few dollars and the number of minutes balloons to 1000. Now, who do you think is paying for this largess?

Every politician should have to answer that question, then be subjected to a, figuratively at least, old time “tarring and feathering.”
