PRINCETON, NJ -- A new Gallup Poll finds 48% of Americans saying the amount of federal income taxes they pay is "about right," with 46% saying "too high"
Lets see...just a guess, the 48% that say they are "just right" are probably the nearly 50% of Americans that pay no taxes or get a welfare check via the EITC. While the other 46%...might be those that actually pay taxes and carry their own weight?
Exactly! The bottom 50% pay a whopping 3% of taxes!
You know what's even sadder? When you tax protestors can't get in through your head that most Americans WANT those programs!
By all means...go ahead and run a campaign based on cutting present day Social programs. .....you'll quickly go the way of the Dodo bird.
Get that throught your head....You're in the minority....Go win an election instead of whining and crying like little babies who've think they've been wronged......don't pretend like Stimulus Bill is something most people don't want...LOL
Hey I would like a new Mercedes will obama buy me one. The money is going to run out ay some point the government is printing money as fast as it can, it is buying it's own treasuries. We are headed for disaster. By the way I don't think anyone said anything about cutting programs. If Obama came out tomorrow and said he would freeze spening at 2008 levels ( like most of us in our own lives have done) there would be no Tea Parties. It is about $14 Trillion deficit more than every previous administration combined. Good luck paying that back

No the money is not going to run out. As long as the USA has the ablility to tax....We also are not printing more money..you simply don't know what you are talking about.....We are borrowing money....You can't borrow money unless there is someone willing to lend it to you.....Guesss what???? They are STILL buying our Treasury Notes.....They are STILL willing to lend us money.

Of course the money would run out. Do you think taxes are like a water faucet turn it and money rains out. There comes a point where you tax so high you stop economic activity. What then? Confiscate all wealth, ok... what then. It looks like it might be drying up already!
Who is buying our treasuries?? The Chinese, so we are at the mercy of the Chinese if they don't buy we are screwed. They get to call the tune don't they?
Ahh, the truth hurts but don't expect these clods to accept reality. They'll just pretend it's all a vast conspiracy that no one cares about this artificial media campaign. These fools don't even know when they're being played.

LIES! The income tax is not the only tax. Why is it right wingers refuse to acknowledge this basic fact? Either they are obtuse to the extreme or they are deliberate liars. Since this fact has been pointed out to them over and over I'd say they are deliberately lying.
Not lies responses to the original post. If you wish to engage on another topic post another thread.
