Those of us who paid full weight of employment and income taxes at the Carter rates back in the day and who now subsist on savings (which don't earn anything because of Fed/banksters' zero-interest-rate policy) and Social Security will take a new weight at what, 39% or whatever the fashionable rate is in Europe? so that you can get your income taxes reduced. What a deal, thanks bud.
Yes, how selfish of me to want something that would benefit everyone. Your rash judgement isn’t justified, I’d only want it as PART of a tax system change and nothing close to 39% (where on earth did you get that number? it’s nothing close to reality). Eliminate income tax, lower the corp tax rate (to a FLAT tax for all), have a small consumption tax - you’d end up with lower costs on good and services while retaining the tax receipts at the fed level.
...but so long as you’re just fine with the government deciding how much, of my money, I can keep you’re part of the problem. Let’s just keep the system we have right? Thanks bud.
