I said the power of the executive branch has become too broad; not the federal government as a whole.

I wouldn't call you either, just a redistributivist. You are literally talking about taking already taxed money from dead individuals in order to give it to others. I'm also curious as to what kind of federal programs you think ought to exist for the middle class.

If you think government bureacracy is better than private investment, yes you are.
Being a bureaucrat. Is more lucrative and less risky than owning your own business

IMO, they’re dead, and if republicans really care about personal achievement, all of it certainly shouldn’t go to they’re kids who usually just wait for daddy to die.
But that’s beaides the point, I do believe in the welfare. It does help people. I do believe in social security; I don’t think it should run out. Basic things like health care and education should be a right in my opinion if this county is the greatest. The definition of great is different for many people however.

I'll go ahead and solve the issue. Because the current tax only affects "them" and not you. Your entire philosophy on taxation is so transparently driven by envy that it's disgusting.
If my estate ended up to be valued at hundreds of millions of dollars. I wouldn’t mind that being taxed, and I’m not the only one who thinks like that.

And you're free to give as much of that money as you wish to the gov't. Seriously, you know the IRS has a website where you can give them as much money as you wish huh?
So why if that's your, and apparently many others, opinion must you require it from other people who have differing opinions?

You should do some research on income taxation then. There was a point in this country where we paid no income tax and things were better off than they are now. Your argument is a moot point about passing the burden on to our kids. The answer is to pay less taxes in order to hold/keep government accountable.
They work for us, not the other way around.

That is some communist level thinking. What is the government doing to earn that money other than just sitting there waiting for daddy to die?

It's easy to be generous with theoretical money
If every rich prog would give 50% of their wealth to the poor we could solve all kinds of problems.

It is NOT against the law to give your money to the government. I don’t know of any ultra rich people who have given or committed to giving extra money to the government.

Does the federal gorvernment not have three branches or am I already that drunk?
Posted on 12/14/17 at 3:17 pm to 337Tiger19
So you chose lawyer because you like stealing people's money and you're complaining the government is a better thief?
