Corporate Tax Revenue Came In 31% Below Predictions, And It's Getting Worse

[Rustic]

my attitude is towards the theft of my property by those that dont have a legal right to it,,,

theft is not charity,,,

It's not theft. Our culture has evolved to understand that anyone at anytime could face hardships and that it is better for society to assist during those periods of hardship. It's a social contract that is available to you and yours if the need arises.
You should be grateful that you don't need it rather than begrudging others for their struggles.

Interesting point of view. One wonders if it's a sign that a culture has "evolved" when people in that culture feel that they deserve a "living wage" without working! I would argue that is a sign that said culture has begun a death spiral.

It's certainly a sign that our economy is not working for the majority of Americans any longer. There wouldn't need to be any discussions of support if people earned a wage they could live and thrive on.

Lol
There’s nothing more inefficient than redistribution through government. So shut the fuck up

I agree. The upward distribution of wealth in our economy is killing us.

Lol
It does not matter how little or how much anybody makes it’s no one else’s business, and certainly no the federal governments business

it is theft if it violates the law,,,which in this case it does,,

you dont like it then change the law,,,

There is nothing in the law that says it is theft. If that were the case, it would have been settled a long time ago.

nice spin there jr,,,

I think its me that decides if I've been robbed not you or the government,,,

and since there is no authority to give my money to another its theft plain and simple,,,

LOL...
You're the one spinning. You dont decide anything. You have a vote. Our representatives decide what is law. Our courts rule on the constutionality of those laws if challenged.

your opinion has been noted and rejected because it comes from a place of ignorance,,,

That is a fact, jack.

/——/ Cut spending. Problem solved.

Another dumb comment. Seems the Trump sycophants and pseudo conservatives have no clue. It is past time for a fiscal responsible budget policy.

Once I believed the line-item budget would fix the budget, then trump came along.

/—-/ How do you control your budget in your personal life? Just curious what happens when you spend more than you take home.

My wife and I are fiscally responsible. We've never spent more than we earn in the 45 years we've been married. That does not mean we didn't buy a home using a loan, or a car or using a credit care for major purposes such as appliances.

When we needed a new roof, we took out a home loan and paid the interest. (in those days interest was tax deductible - Reagan eliminated that).

Better to take on debt, than to allow the roof to leak and destroy the interior (that is what I mean by fiscally responsible, something the Federal Government seems unable to comprehend).

Balanced budgets are an unmitigated joke, shit happens and all budgets are nothing more than a plan, which is reviewed as time passes by sensible and responsible people.

Thus the talk by fiscal conservatives about a balanced budget amendment would be disastrous.

I’m still waiting for the government to be fiscally responsible. Doubt I’ll see that in my lifetime.

Gov't must become fiscally responsible, and it must begin at the ballot box. The fact is that the opposite of trickle down has been in play for decades, and our democratic republic has become a Plutocracy.

Fiscal Conservatism simply kicks the can down the road. If the roof leaks, fix it; it the clouds drop copious amounts of rain, fix the creeks, rivers and dams sooner than too late.

It’s real easy freeze then cut spending, Raise taxes for a couple years to help pay down the debt. Quit funding research, funding corporations, quit foreign aid and quit enlarging our social programs. Get America on its feet first then we help our residents.

It should start with the DOD. The single biggest black hole in the budget. When the DOD says it is unable to account for three trillion dollars, there's a huge problem.

An income tax unconstitutional... In reality it makes no sense

You logic makes no sense. Income tax is allowed as part of the 16th amendment, thus it cannot be unconstitutional...since it is part of the Constitution.

you might want to look up what the word unconstitutional means before you use it...just a thought

dude, please learn what unconstitutional means, you are making a food of yourself.

Anti-trust laws are punishment for success and yet you support them...and they do not even have an amendment making them constitutional.
