Plan Submitted For All Americans to Pay Federal Taxes

I'm sure Congress is ignoring Wall Street and reading our posts.

Your skirt flew up. Wealth redistribution is a communist agenda.

What do you think tax expenditures are?

They are the biggest socialist wealth distribution scheme and government interference in the markets ever, and they transfer wealth away from the middle class up to the rich.

The tax part of the plan is good.

We need to simplify the tax code, we need to do away with all tax expenditures (i.e. exclusions, deductions, credits, etc..) and go with the route of you can file your taxes on a post card. If Bob makes the exact same amount as Sally they should be the exact same amount in income tax, should not matter if one of them has kids or a house they are paying on or going to college or any of the other 1000 plus things we have.

With that we could go the way of most of the civilized world and remove the need to even file taxes. The IRS already knows how much you made, how much you paid in taxes and how much you owe.

Americans spend 10 times as much as most countries just to file our taxes. It is beyond insane.

I've been saying this for years and years. And then the right wing welfare queens start screaming their heads off.

Another means of silently lessening the inequality of property is to exempt all from taxation below a certain point, and to tax the higher portions or property in geometrical progression as they rise.

Yes, Trump did a great job but now the trespassers are back.
I know you have a great job and don't care about minorities; you can deal with that aspect of your character with God after you pass from this world.

Thats a cool story silly, but it addresses nothing about the economic concepts and problems facing us that I've explaned to you.

You have no clue, even the poorest 5th of the country pays 20% in taxes on average. google the only tax graph you need to know.... The United states is the richest country in the world and the only modern country that doesn't have a living wage healthcare daycare paid parental leave cheap college and training an ID card to end illegal immigration. You people have no clue whatsoever change the damn channel

Can you at least attempt to come up with a new string of random thoughts to put into a sentence?

Most of the taxes we pay go to other middle-class people and those in poverty. If you are arguing if the rich do not pay their fair share, Progs have had opportunities to increase their taxes. State and local governments have increased them in larger amounts.

These were your comebacks in the 2000's. No, I just showed you that our government was going after illegal employers until, Bush. And companies going overseas really picked up steam in the 2000's. Mass exodus. And Bush gave them tax breaks on their way out.
We know your anti union comeback. Tax cuts grew the wage gap, drove up the debt and caused inflation.

haha bush didn’t stop prosecuting people knowing hiring illegals.

the largest punishment in history was during the trump years

Clintons NAFTA deal wasn’t great…glad trump fixed it

I'm with the Founders on this, no individual income tax, only property owners can vote. You can define property as real estate or owning a business. Individual income taxes enslave the population to the government, they were intended to serve us.

can you tell us the differences between NAFTA and USMCA?

Some drawbacks of a flat tax rate system include lack of wealth redistribution,

That's a benefit for those of us who oppose marxism.

So, what you and Scott are saying is that a disabled vet drawing VA disability should be pay taxes on that money?

The only way to make every American to pay taxes is establish a VAT and forget all this GD paperwork each year.

The problem with that is, they would not REPLACE the regular income tax, merely ADD the VAT and then continue raising both.

You can't sell exemptions for consumption taxes.

We could exempt food from the consumption taxes.

Thanks to Leftardism it has. Taxes were for the common good of society, ie roads, defense, emergency services etc.

We could exempt food from the consumption taxes.

And stop taxing inventories. Big reason for the shortages is no one keeps stock because they are taxed for it.

Tax rates are too high for EVERYONE. And that is because of the $1.4 trillion of annual tax expenditures.

If we eliminated those, we could lower tax rates for everyone and like Golfing Gator said, and I've been saying for at least a decade on here, two entities who earn identical incomes would pay identical taxes.

Forget all this "fair share" bullshit. That is misdirection to get us all haggling over that bullshit while we ignore the real problem which is benefitting special interests at everyone's expense.

No one keeps stock because they are all religious converts to Just-In-Time delivery.

I’ve always advocated that all Americans must pay Federal taxes. Every American has a vested interest in our nation, there’s zero reason no American should not take part in that process of keeping our nation going.

Even if it’s 0.01% of their income, it’s an active participation role.

Also end the scam that if you pay no income tax you should never be entitled to a refund,

We could exempt food from the consumption taxes.

And that is exactly how the wedge is driven to open the door to a trillion dollars of additional exemptions.

There should be NO exemptions, deductions, or credits for ANYTHING.

I prefer the Fair Tax. It is a consumption tax which has a prebate to mitigate the regressive nature of sales taxes. That takes care of the food problem.
