All they can think about it taking money from those who earn it and give it to those who take it and vote democrat.

To: I want the USA back

Actually it is not just “them”. I recall when reading the text of the draft bill providing for the EIC. My comment was why are we sending welfare from the federal treasury to allegedly boost the income of low paying jobs. This is more like supporting big business to keep wages low. Then came the lets get more people off the income tax rolls. Smart move eh? Not so smart when almost half of the taxpayers are removed from the tax rolls and begin saying hey, my taxes are too high (hint they are not paying any income tax and some already getting a check, the earned income tax credit), so increase taxes on the high earners, who are already the only ones paying. This happened under both parties. Now the only way to correct it would be to abolish all forms of income tax and go to something like a flat tax or some kind of consumption tax. This will not happen because no one is going to agree to pay a tax where now they are paying none. We have goosed our financial system so many ways already there is no coming back. We have even monitized our debt to max. Game set match.
