Oh, boy! I get to pee in ANOTHER liberal's cornflakes. Newsflash, Skippy.... The top 50% of wage earners pay 100% of the income tax. We already have the highest corporate taxes in the world. We passed Japan on that one several years ago. These corporations outsourced American jobs to places with LOWER taxes. Just like the wealthy, for the past hundred years have put their money in tax shelters mostly provided by Democrats.
The IRS audits people at the low end of the taxable income tier at five times the rate they do the wealthy. This is because lower income people cannot afford expensive accountants and attorneys to find them loopholes, and even when the taxpayer wins, he frequently ends up paying more in legal fees than the amount the IRS wrongfully accused him of owing. Your boy Biden wants another 87,000 IRS agents. You actually believe they will change one hundred years of doing things and go after the people who can afford to defend themselves? Ask ten IRS agents a question and get ten answers then they go after you for following their incorrect instructions.

You could take every dime, taxable or not, of income "the rich" make in a year and it would fund the government for a few months. Try and get this through the extra thick layers of gullibility that insulate you from reality...... It is not the IRS giving tax breaks to the rich; it is the government spending more than they have year after year after year. Remember your boy Obama? People who claim he reduced the deficit conveniently forget that he did that by borrowing more money than all the other presidents in our country's history combined. Reducing the deficit by increasing the debt just kicks the can down the road. I don't think you know the difference between deficit and debt. Debt is money that has to be paid back. Deficit is money that you owe above and beyond the money you have already borrowed.

The complex and distorted US Tax System does not generate enough revenues to cover the spending levels promised. One tax code section, so-called tax breaks, totaled $1.7 Trillion in 2022.

===============
That's the specific issue being discussed.
We are talking about the debt ceiling.

Writing a book about the whole financial operations of the Fed. could be done. Where it begins, and where it ends. Right here, that is not called for. Duh..!

We don't need to keep promising spending we can't afford. It is your people who can't control their spending addiction.

They can't control their taxing addiction either.

Whereas republicans are a much more diverse group of v**ers and act independently, Democrats follow their marching orders from the party because they put party above all else.

2017 revenue was $3.2 T and thanks to Trump's tax cuts Revenue is now $4.7 T. During that time the Federal Budget has increased by 60%, federal spending by 60%, and debt by 60%. It is not a revenue problem, it is a spending problem, with both parties, promising everything to the v**ers who want everything, and they v**e for whoever promises the most. The tax code needs to be scrapped and replaced with a flat tax rate that begins after, say, $25,000 is earned, or eliminated and replaced with a national sales tax. And that there needs to be a constitutional amendment to prevent increases in tax rates, except during wartime, and to have a balanced budget. Otherwise, the natural tendency is to keep increasing taxes and spending. Government is no longer accountable to "We The People."

Really? And you know this because... They must not have my address. I have not received my marching orders. I'll have to complain.

dtucker300 Loc: Vista, CA

You listen to the media, don't you? Your school teachers, Hollywood, politicians, etc? Yeah, you've received your marching orders.

I have pointed out the bad, no horrible policies of the Democrats to PegW and Dashy, and it simply doesn't faze them. It's as if there were chips implanted into their brains.

I would say they’re bot’s but bot’s aren’t that stupid

I read that on dating sites they actually have multiple people pretending to be a person, talking to lonely men and women. Apparently it works well. Which ever operator is available they are given a script to go with the person they are supposed to be. Say I have an online crush on ' Sally '. I regularly pour out my heart to Sally, and I think it is Sally I am texting with several times per week. Over a few months I will have unknowingly conversed with ten different people, and they have gotten money out of me.

There are people on here I sometimes suspect of being multiple personalities. Maybe they are Russian bots. If they are, Putin is not getting his money's worth.

I often thought of getting into that line of work. I could argue l*****t dogma a lot better than the liberals who grace this place. But alas, I have morals. That sucks.
