W/Medicare, too, Social Medical Insurance, if you've paid into it your whole working life and you turn 65 and start reaping its' benefits, the benefits for many people and esp. those elderly who are very ill, will far exceed what they've paid into. With the cost of medical anything (diagnostics, surgeon's fees, hospital room/board) and how medical care is continually climbing, benefits may supercede payments in.

Not once did i ever hear Obama say anything other than tax cuts for the WORKING MIDDLE CLASS which i suspect most here on CD are.

what a bunch of morons.
Quit being so dumb. Do you really think slick NObama is going to come out and say he wants to implement Collectivization? No. He is just going to keep telling you liberals what you want to hear until you put him in charge. Then well see what a muslim millionare thinks about the "middle class"...

Please tell us:

1) How the government is supposed to work, as it pertains to taxes and the Constitution (and rebate checks vs. the Constitution for a bonus round question)
2) History of this country, as it pertains to taxation
3) What socialism is

Thanks

No....let me spell it out for you

Do students pay federal income tax?

Because you worked during school, we must assume that all students work, right?

Did you make enough $ while *gasp* working to actually pay taxes?

I think you should demand a refund from your school..it didnt help you.

Only people who filed tax returns in the previous tax year received a stimulus check. So if students or anyone else received a check they must have been working in order to pay taxes. Otherwise they don't file.
