Interesting how ‘socialism’ has become the talking point of the day.
Are any of you defenders of the flag willing to discuss the impact of tax avoidance strategies on US tax policy? Because overall, tax policy in the last couple of decades has become substantially regressive for those with access.
I don’t support redistribution of wealth, but redistribution of wealth upwards is insidious. It’s ethically disgusting and it is screwing the majority of people in this country. It ought to be a crime punishable with dismemberment by an angry mob.
Many of you have been crying like babies over the bailout. You disagree with wealth redistribution, and object to “infusing” the banking system with taxpayer money to rescue Fat Cat bankers, flippers and cheats.
The bailout is the most regressive financial swindle in the history of this country. Current tax policy is regressive. You oppose the bailout, but you support a regressive tax policy. Do you see the contradition in your position? So you’re what … hypocrites?
Those of you out there complaining about tax policy as if it were socialism are either deceived or worse, “Deceivers”. It’s one of the two. Reminds me of that saying about card cheats, if you can’t figure out who’s cheating, you shouldn’t be at the table.
Finally, I’ll add that arguing with such vitriol about relatively minor changes in marginal tax rates and policy while we’re fighting two wars and battling a major economic crisis in our country is pretty shitty.
