You know, every post I have ever seen you make, has been one that leads everyone to believe that you are a drain on our society. You know the kind. The ones who do not realize that social programs are over 61% of our federal budget.
Social programs that are used to buy votes with gifts from the public coffer.
Social programs with no good reasoning other than "well we should".
Social programs that steal from the producers and give to the non-producers.
Social programs that have existed for almost 100 years and have yet to even put a dent in whatever they were created to fight, even though tax burdens for the producers have climbed.
Social programs that have been used to commit uncounted cases of fraud and abuse.
Social programs that allow government even more control over people's lives.
Stop being a drain on the rest of us. Become a producer. You will be finally able to hold your head high.

According to data from the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy, when all federal, state, and local taxes are combined, the lowest-income fifth of Americans actually pay a substantial portion of their income in taxes (roughly 16% to 17%), largely because state and local sales and property systems tend to be regressive
So, what you are saying is that they use the money,given to them by through federal programs, funded by us rich, for consumption of things not needed. Because let's face it, they are only paying various sales taxes. They do not own homes with which to tax.
So, they should quit consuming so much if they are poor.
Now do taxes paid through state and local taxes by the rich...

Ahhhh......now I got it. You are one of the rich receiving tax breaks.
You do realize that the government is funded by taxes? I suppose you are also against social security and medicaid? Of course you are because you are rich and do not need it.
The bottom line is the the federal spending is out pacing tax revenues by a WIDE margin. Trump has done nothing to fix this even though he promised to do so. His war is making things even worse. Like I said before, the rich could give an extra 10% to help get the debt under control and they would not even notice that money was gone. You keep shooting down my idea but have none to offer other than we should get rid of all social programs.

It sounds like the the poor are being screwed over by the same politicians, who keep conning them into thinking rich people are the problem. Maybe they should ask their local politicians for some of those 'rich people' tax breaks.

Other than being a cowardly, ignorant, spineless, weak jackass Dem.............................no, there was nothing wrong with him.
And you're just like him.

Yes, and it is about time. I have been pulling non-producers along all my career. They need to pay their fair share now.

Who is honestly for social security? Do you even know why it was started? Do you know it is failing and still draws over 30% of governmental spending? For what? A program that should have been privatized a long time ago? Care to know how much money you would have if you invested it instead of paid daddy government to take care of you?

Bottom line: how would any President bring down governmental spending when over 60% is spent on social programs and another 13% is spent on military and another 10% is spent on interest alone?
But no, keep saying we have a revenue issue and not a spending issue. Keep denying that our government pays for votes from low IQ people, such as yourself, with those very social programs you need paid for buy the producers.
I keep shooting down your idea cause it sucks. It is the idea of a simpleton.
Many people have tried to tax businesses and the rich. What happened? We took our ball and played somewhere else and the governments lost revenue and had to cut social programs.
Yeah baws, our governmental spending is out of control. But I do not wish to lose my WIC and shite, so tax those rich frickers more...even though those rich pay over 90% of all tax revenue now.
Dumbass

Weak sauce dude. Very weak. Did you really think the American government was going to do that?
Now, take your SNAP and get outta here.

You keep complaining about social programs. I assume you are okay with all the tax money being spent on the war, the ball room, and the heli pad. Or what about tearing up the reflecting pool and then having to tear it up again to fix the first project. Or how about the millions of dollars wasted for the president to go golfing or all the rallies he attended this month. You really have a strange set of priorities.

No I did not. But there are a lot of low IQ MAGA nuts who think they will.

There isn't one US citizen, if they're being honest, that's threatened by the presence of law enforcement at a polling location. Why would the presence of law enforcement at a polling location concern a US citizen who is legally registered to vote
I completely agree. The only question I have to ask is why our government does not want what American citizens desire.

Haven't you heard? If the republicans win, it was a fair electing. If the Democrats win, the election was rigged.
It's the opposite.
When have the Democrats ever accepted a loss? Most of you still believe Putin changed votes in 2016.

Paying for a service is different than transfer payments. Transfer payments you get nothing in return.
The majority of our federal dollars goes to transfer payments.
