You complained about them paying no taxes...................
Make you case then to the people that you believe the way to address 3 decades of national debt due to tax cuts for the wealthy, excessive military spending, and financial deregulation, is to tax the destitute and the disabled.
Please show where I said "destitute and the disabled" should pay more taxes. Thank you.
You said the people that don't pay any taxes at all should be taxed. As I pointed out, the only people who don't pay any taxes at all are the destitute and the disabled.
:raises eyebrow: why would I do so when I don't argue that we need to raise taxes on the destitute/disabled in order to pay down the debt?
The "only" people who don't pay taxes are in this group? Really? Got proof?
Who except the destitute and disabled don't pay payroll taxes and sales taxes?
Now I know you've heard that 48+-% don't pay any taxes. Now are you telling me that almost half of the taxpayers in the US are destitute or disabled?
I have a question for you. When/if the 48% non-payers becomes 50 to 52% what happens?

That is what worries me the most. Once we have more voters than FIT payers there is a HUGE political advantage to making FIT payers fund ever more wonderful "vote buying" programs for the masses. It is very easy to be generous with other people's money.
Is it your contention that the 48% that pay no FIT do so because they enjoy living in or near poverty, or do you think it could be due to the unemployment, and underemployment due to the recession and outsourcing?
Outsourcing is a solution, not a problem. The people in China are very happy to have those jobs. When the blue collar workers in the US realize they were overpaid, they might be able to get some of those jobs back if they accept pay cuts.

Again, how does one getting handed millions from dead parents confer upon one the label of being ECONOMICALLY SUCCESSFUL? A far better term would be LUCKY.
You either outright lie or you have the worst memory on this board. :roll:
Faris is the Tweedle-dum to the Tweedle-dee of Luntz - you remember now don't you? After all, I have provided their names to you dozens and dozens of times in post after post after post when you bring up their favorite neologism for inheritance taxes. You slavishly follow their orders so perhaps you should try to remember the names of your masters.
Or at least be honest about it.
Tax System Seen as Unfair, in Need of Overhaul
Wealthy Not Paying Fair Share Top Complaint
"Public dissatisfaction with the tax system has grown over the past decade, and the focus of the public’s frustration is not how much they themselves pay, but rather the impression that wealthy people are not paying their fair share."
"The latest national survey by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press, conducted Dec. 7-11, 2011 among 1,521 adults, finds that this sense of unfairness centers on the perception that wealthy Americans are not paying their fair share of taxes; 57% say this is what bothers them most about the tax system, while half as many (28%) point to the complexity of the system, and just 11% say that the high amount they have to pay is what bothers them the most."

Romney only paid 14%...............
Yup - I paid a higher percentage of my income in federal tax than he did.
Gotta love those tax laws we have, huh?

Ok now you backtrack YET AGAIN from your original postition. . And want to keep all credits, deductions and exclusions for EVERYONE EXCEPT the top 5%. Hmm...
Yeah, and I bet you will not in your entire live make the amount he paid in taxes...last year.
I guess you don't think its right to work hard and be frugal for your children? does that mean your children are going to whine about my son in 20-30 years?
You labor under the delusion that the stuff you post is stuff anyone really cares about or remembers
he must be counting FICA and ignoring the estate taxes Romney will pay and he will not pay
