Act Goofy And Give Everone A Big Tax Cut We Can't Afford

it's not a tax cut. it is keeping the govt. from increasing taxes. maybe instead of begging the govt. to let me keep more of my hard earned money, the govt. should stop spending my money on stupid govt. run programs that fail time after time.

No fucktard. The republicans want to keep the tax breaks that have been in effect for the last 5-10 years from expiring. In other words, keep the tax rate the SAME as it was LAST YEAR and the year before. If your idiot demoncrats let the cuts EXPIRE then you will effectively receive the LARGEST TAX INCREASE in the history of the united states. Would you like to pay A LOT MORE in taxes next year than you did last year??? Idiot.

Dick Durbin weak kneed goofy mamby pamby.

HAHAHAHA ya lets up the taxes cause we all know that it goes to pay off the debt and NOT to start new gov programs....

like all the wars and the all the corporate subsidies, I agree with you 100%.

Democrat shills are early this morning...

ending a tax cut, is a tax increase.

OP.... You like taxes? Do you even pay taxes? Government don't need more money..Government needs to downsize.

It's a Republican plan that didn't work that just adds to the deficit.

After when they expire in January they will be called tax cuts.
Alms for the rich. Alms for the rich.

After January wait and see if the tea party still want the tax cuts.

After January and they still think they need the tax cuts... so people can't pay their taxes come April 15th then the tax cuts should be used for just one year at 50% of with the tax cut is set at now.

Actually, a fatal flaw in this shills post.

Dude, your democrat hippie followers are still sleeping. Only tax payers are up and at work right now. Try and re-post after noon.

The Obamas and Pelosis of the world forget that ALL tax revenue is OUR MONEY, not THEIR money, and these creeps have been foolishly wasting it.

As for the OP, he's got his tongue way up the rectum of the Democratic party.

Stop the wars all around the world, stop the war on drugs(that cost 100's of billions of $) stop the war on the middle class, stop all the waste from corporate subsides.
That's where all the money is going with very little return.
There is no return on these wars.
Stop the bad investments by the government.

The worst people in the world are deficit spenders.
Tax cuts that we can't afford is deficit spending.
Keeping tax cuts we can't afford is deficit spending.

Republicans want wars and other nonsense but don't want to pay for it.

NOPE!

Cut government!

Pull out of Afghan and Iraq and we'll cut our spending by BILLIONS.

The hugest tax cuts are for the top wealthiest.
BS is what it is!

this

Democrats have started more wars, so its POLITICIANS that want war! Quit making this a right vs left.

Ten men drinking beer

Suppose that every evening, 10 men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100.

If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this :-

The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.
The fifth would pay $1.
The sixth would pay $3.
The seventh would pay $7.
The eighth would pay $12.
The ninth would pay $18.
The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.

So, that's what they decided to do.......

The 10 men drank in the bar every evening and were quite happy with the arrangement until one day, the owner said,

"Since you are all such good customers, I'm going to reduce the cost of your daily beer by $20".

Drinks for the 10 men would now cost just $80.

The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes.

So the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free.

But what about the other six men? The paying customers? How could they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his fair share?

They realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody's share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer.

So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man's bill by a higher percentage the poorer he was, to follow the principle of the tax system they had been using, and he proceeded to work out the amounts he suggested that each should now pay.

Therefore, the fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing.
The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33% saving).
The seventh now paid $5 instead of $7 (28% saving).
The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% saving).
The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% saving).
The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% saving).

Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four continued to drink for free. But, once outside the bar, the men began to compare their savings.

"I only got a dollar out of the $20 saving," declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man, "but he got $10!"

"Yeah, that's right," exclaimed the fifth man. "I only saved a pound too.
It's unfair - he got 10 times more benefit than me!"

"That's true!" shouted the seventh man. "Why should he get $10 back, when I got only $2? The wealthy always win!"

"Wait a minute," yelled the first four men in unison, "we didn't get anything at all. This new tax system exploits the poor!"

The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.

The next night the tenth man didn't show up for drinks, so the nine sat down and had their beers without him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn't have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill!

And that, boys and girls, journalists, labour unions and government ministers, is how our tax system works.

The people who pay the highest taxes will naturally get the most benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up anymore.

In fact, they might start drinking overseas, where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier.

Pay for it! and stop saying war is normal, this is not a deficit spending is normal thread.

Only on the income that exceeds $250000/year.

Even then it only reverts back to what the tax rate was when the ecomnomy was rolling along nicely.

Remember, every one of the republican senators voted against us keeping the tax cut.


Fact!

The OP truly does not know what he is talking about. Democrats are all about Tax and Spend. If the dems got their way we would have the biggest tax increase ever. Geez some people are just so ignorant.

Yes they say this to confuse the issue, it is just keeping the same taxes and not raising them. Far from any tax cut.

Our states then raise taxes so we never end up in a forward moving direction, they then just spend more on illegal immigrant programs or free health care...it never gets any better. For of those abusing the system you need to stop now you are aiding in taking our entire nation down.

It's Republicans just voted down tax cuts, weirdo.
Stop complaining and pay for your wars.

And your idiot republicans are responsible for the LARGEST UNPAID TAX CUT IN HISTORY, and the only time in the history of mankind that a leader has cut taxes during a time of war. And you wonder why our country is in the shitter?

You are another one with the deficit spending sickness.

If you like deficit spending go some place else please. We are trying to spot Dems that fall for the Republican line in this thread.

And on top of that, you have homosexual tendencies if you like deficit spending.
