What is the responsibility of the recipient class?

We, in the provider class, know what our perceived responsibility is by a constant barrage of "pay more, you greedy pig!" by lefties.

So....what is the responsibility of the recipient class other than procreating and demanding "rights" at the expense of others?

Yeah, 99% provide profits for the 1% recipient class.

This is not a well thought out post. Why not start by defining your perceived classes before asking others what their responsibilities are.

I thought it was pretty well laid out.

You are either a provider, or a recipient.

What is so difficult to understand?

Low wage workers do not have any federal tax responsibility. and, they're assisted by the provider class.

It applies to so many different scenarios.

Business owners provide jobs, innovation, value to society. Employees and society receive the benefits.

BZZT! A childless adult working full time at minimum wage pays $500/yr federal income tax plus $1100/yr payroll taxes.

I thank my Lord for having enabled me to be a provider. I provide gladly for those who are unable to provide for themselves.

I spend most of my income buying necessities. These necessities are sold at a profit for the owners of the businesses. Therefore I am having a portion of the money I spend transferred from me, a 99%er, to the owning 1%ers. That makes me a provider and them a recipient. Then there is the fact that I pay much of my limited income as taxes whilst multimillionaires pay at a much lower rate on their effectively unlimited income. Thus I am a provider to the government and they are recipients.

I am certain the OP was trying to chastise the poor as “recipients” while “proper” people like him were “providers”. Indeed, he might be a “provider” but the biggest recipients are big business.
