[quote=Ex-SD]4plexowner : I’m with you, brother! I started delivering newspapers and TV Guides when I was nine years old. I had a morning, evening 7 Sunday paper route that required me to get up at 4:30 in the morning so I could finish the route and get ready for school. I learned a great work ethic from this experience and the more money I made as an adult, the government was always standing there, wanting more & more for the “ner-do-wells” of America who had NO work ethic and who are always pissing & moaning about how sorry their lives are when the real problem is that they are simply professional victims of their own making. It makes me very angry that the liberals in the government want to punish the people who keep the economy working and reward the bozo’s who only want to take…….and take…………..and take some more…………..and then bitch about how little they have. Screw ’em!! [/quote]
I hear ya’ brother! No doubt you would have been just as successful in Russia or China. All your success is because of YOUR efforts and people like YOU shouldn’t have to pay any taxes because YOU are so special.
Now you just have to convince the other 99% of Americans who make less than you to lower your taxes after they’ve seen the very rich rape the system for the last 8 years. It should be an easy sell.
Edited to add:By the way, if you make less than the top 1% (approximately $250K per year), then you don’t have anything to worry about under either McCain’s or Obama’s proposed tax plans as folks who make less than $250K will not see their taxes raised under either new administration’s plans. It’s only the super-rich like FLU who should fear the Obama plan as they will finally have to pay their fair share.
