To Many Tax Breaks for the Poor
There are still complaints that the poor do not pay their fair share of taxes and we expect to much from those rich people who already pay to much.
I would like to know just where these poor people are going to get the extra cash to pay more taxes.
Every day we see more evidence that it is not the poor who have created the national debt. It is not the programs that serve as a safety net for the poor that have created the national debt.
Henry Bloch, founder of H&R Bloch, has added his voice to those richer Americans that think that they get unfair advantages.
When you complain that the poor do not pay enough, you forget that their income is at the bottom. We are talking about people who live in poverty. We are talking about people who are losing their jobs. We are talking about people who are losing their homes. We are talking about people who are dying because they do not have health care.
“We are talking about people who live in poverty. We are talking about people who are losing their jobs. We are talking about people who are losing their homes. We are talking about people who are dying because they do not have health care”.
But listen to the Conservative Republicans and you would think that this is the way the poor would like to be John….
THEY THINK POVERTY IS THE GOOD LIFE WHERE EVERY THING IS GIVEN TO THEM FREE….nOW WHAT i WANT TO KNOW IS IF IT IS THE GOOD LIFE THAT THE CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN’S SEEM TO ALWAYS SUGGEST HOW COME THE POOR,ARE STILL THE POOR ?
JEZZUS It is like they are saying “Poor” is the best life one can imagine,no work,no worries,free food,free money…..Oh yea I know thats what I am shotting for…I wanna be Poor !!!!
Taxes are based on what you have. If you have 90% of everything. You really should pay 90% of the Taxes.
Do they not realize that they Could double taxes on the bottom 20% and it would not even be a noticeable increase in Revenue.
Money naturally percolates up to the top, and when it stays there, you get poverty on the bottom.
Now consider if we had a system in which the harder you worked, the more money you made. Considering how people actually are, under that system, you would have very few rich people, very few poor people, and the great bulk of humanity would be clustered in the middle.
That’s not what we have on our planet. The great mass of humanity live in abject poverty. They work as hard, or even harder than most, yet they often don’t have enough food to eat. There is something very wrong with this, and the richest people on the planet have made it this way
I met a guy downtown who told me he was rich. So I asked him if he made a million dollars a day, which of course, he didn’t. Then I told him that rich people laugh at him, because he was only two steps above migrant labor
