Thought you said you were self employed. Don't you pay taxes on income from that? Don't tell me you work under the table and pay no income taxes.
Well I'm sure if he's going to the Supreme Court about something they will notice if he's never even paid taxes.

The businesses grow wealth, not income.. No need to generate income and subject onself to taxes if there isnt a need to

So what? The fact that it doesnt have an impact on me doesnt mean its good policy. I'd have to be a compelte ahole to ignore that tens of millions of americans are affected, and not in a good way so that about 5 million could have insurance that didnt previously. And to think its only going to cost ONE TRILLION DOLLARS over a 10 year period.. yeah, that works out to about $16K PER PERSON PER YEAR.. and you think thats cost effective.. Dumb

I would imagine there's not much to audit since you don't pay anything. And since you pay no taxes, but travel on the roads my taxes pay for, well I'll let you choose the slang but the one you suggested works.

You have no stake in this. And yet, I'm sure if you get sick, you will expect someone to help you.

Just a moment. Sure the businesses may grow wealth. But you don't take one cent from the business? Not one? Exactly what do you live on?

Complete ignorance at its finest.. They audit gross income, not net.. In fact my tax return last year was nearly 200 pages long, there is plenty to audit

Ahh poor baby, got confused again by the discussion taking place, which is federal taxes, vs local taxes....

I had catastrophic insurance pre ACA, which was cancelled. I'm one of the many who LOST insurance due to ACA.. dont stand here and give me bull crap when you cant even determine the difference between federal and local taxes..

Nope.. we borrow against the net growth in value and borrowed money isnt taxable..

Catastrophic? See, you needed a better plan. One that includes therapy.

And here we have the intelligence level of liberals.. If you dont benefit from it, then clearly no one else can... There is much to be said about having a caastrophic plan, just because you cant afford one doesnt mean others cant either..

You just proved the point many others have about how government and people like you, think you are in a better position to determine whats in other peoples best interest, people you dont even know..

Thats hell of a god complex you have there..
