I wonder, does she plan on making that much the rest of her life? If she supports progressive tax code and makes more she'll pay even more. Millennial don't think about that.

she plans on making way more in her future. she is home schooled and is doing very well. plus ranchers and farmers when done right can do very well in their business.


she also does not support any progressive tax code, she thinks that taxes should be handled at the state level and the feds should do without.

If she makes more she should be happy to pay more to support the system that makes it possible. Taxes are the duty of every American to make sure that the country can pay its debts.

Why can't right-wingers understand that their days are over, millenials will take over decades and want to become like those Nordic/Western European, Australian/New Zealand labor and government type system where the government provides life/social saferty net and security, free/very low cost education at all levels, mandatory paid days off from work, universal healthcare, and free from debt! Invest the money on our people, not foreigners and nonsense spending on military, wars, etc.! Millenials are sick and tired of having huge student loan debts while some may not find jobs because it's crappy low wages with some even no benefits, high cost of living, competition and expensive homes/rents, expensive daycares, etc. making life for non-rich people difficult. We pay already high taxes but barely get anything back from them unlike in Europe!!!! Capitalism will eventually die out hopefully...

Cut foreign & military aid, invest on us!!
ZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz......it will probably happen when, dare I say, you are old and the new Bi-enemas want YOU to go so they can go back to prospering based on their hard work and not what someone in a Starbucks THINKS they should earn? Juuuuuuust a thought.

I don't want to live like a European in dirty jeans with chicks with unshaven armpits and 4 days of facial hair pontificating on just how cool we really are. No, I'll leave that up to the Greeks. It's worked soooooo very well for them.

LOL, yet when they start getting robbed by the government. And then they'll shake their heads at the next generation who expects a free ride.

That's why they see educated black men like Ben Carson as such a threat.
This Liberal really hopes that Carson threatens us by becoming the GOP pick. Easy money for the Dems.

Obama can help you build that business

We've been through this before. Taxes are not theft, Congress is empowered to levy taxes to pay the country's debts. it's their job, and it written in the Constitution quite plainly. Read it.
