He's gone so I guess that's his way of deflecting, or he's taking a swig of his bear, scratching his balls, playing Farmville, and will get back to us once he has time to gather his thoughts.

Obamacare raises everyone's tax liability with some exceptions thrown in, now you can reduce this tax by purchasing healthcare. When your taxes are raised you usually don't have a choice how it is spent or in paying, but discretionary income by definition is the amount of an individual's income that is left for spending, investing or saving after taxes and personal necessities.

I still have control over my discretionary income, I can't see why you wouldn't.
Yes don't purchase anything.

The GOP is such a confusing party, like a bunch of teenage girls..

Do you like taxes or do you not like them? Do you want open borders so that these migrants families can all move here or do you not? Is there some sort of mastermind prank going on in the Republican party against Democrats?

You guys win, where are the cameras at?? We've been PUNK'D!

Heck I could care less whether or not they pay taxes.

That's money made in the US but not circulated back in the US.
That's money made here and being shipped off somewhere else.

How about taxing remittances since Obama think taxing the rich would help his social programs ?
In the USA, it's very easy -- the immigrants have a very low marriage rate so welfare handouts are extremely easy for them to get even if they're here illegally. Illegals are not obligated to pay child support to thei children they sire -- and they sire a whole lot of children here.

Also illegals pay no federal income tax which is a huge advantage for them. If they're working under a stolen social security number, they know to declare 9 or 10 dependents so that no tax is withheld, and of course if they work for cash under the table they pay no income tax. They get free medical care, they aren't even sent a bill from the hospitals. They pay no health insurance premiums, more often than not they don't buy automobilie insurance. All that leaves them many hundreds of dollars a month after expenses which they can send home.

Yes, why not tax some of those billions of dollars leaving the country each month?

By extrapolation, we can logically assume that 11 million illegal immigrants are in fact being paid under the table and thus NOT paying income taxes.

Not so hard to understand in my opinion.

Amid U.S. unemployment crisis, illegal aliens sending even more money to Mexico - National Immigration Reform | Examiner.com
And who is employing these immigrants at sub standard wages and not paying employer Payroll taxes?
