You can't have a banana republic without unrestrained capitalism.
The purpose of Government is to protect the corporations and create a subservient worker class
What we know of today as the Republican Party
To you, the purpose of government is to take from the one that earns it and hand it to the one that didn't all in the name of "fairness"
What we know of today as the Democrat party.
It is called contributing to the society from which you benefit. Nobody benefits more than the wealthy
Our wealthy are contributing at a lower rate than any time in the last 70 years
When he half that pay zero income taxes start contributing something to the society from which they benefit, you'll have an argument about someone else that already contributes paying more. When a poor person that pays zero percent income taxes can get handout after handout funded by the very taxes they don't pay, they benefit far greater.
So you disagree with the conservative Republican tax policies that created a large class of Americans that pay no federal income tax?
I disagree with anyone paying zero income tax. You must be one of those that believes living in society means contributing to society yet supports the concept of certain people living here but not contributing.
Was that a yes or a no?
I believe that people should be taxed less on money they need for basic necessities than on money above and beyond necessity. It's really that simple.
