TAX TAX TAX and more TAX

[sobmaz]

I think this is called the YO YO pattern. Over the course of the decades I have seen massive tax cuts by Republicans and then tax increases from Democrats.

Republicans give tax cuts, while government spending continues to increase under their watch. The latest example would be under Bush…..The Prescription Drug Coverage, commonly known as Medicare Part D. America CHOSE to fight two wars yet Americans CHOSE not to be inconvenienced with paying for it. When Bush became President he immediately passed a massive tax cut yet the Governments spending expanded that same year.

Democrats come into office with a chip on their shoulder, they are known as “Tax and Spend””spendthrifts” and so on. So Democrats see the balance on the Chinese credit cards and decide that we need to pay for what we get. Democrats become the party poopers.

Who would you prefer? Those who trow a party with no cost to anyone or those who make you pay for the party?

A VAT would be great if a VAT replaced all the other taxes we collect. That isn’t the proposal though. It’ll be income taxes, social security taxes AND a VAT.

Scrap them all and replace them with a National 3% property tax on all titled property and financial instruments coupled with a 3% sales tax on anything not having a title.

everybody then pays ‘their fair share’ since everybody is paying 3% of what they’ve got or earn.

Right now 47% of filers (not people, filers) don’t pay anything on income taxes and may get money back.

Keep in mind that’s in addition to the 15% or so of households that don’t even need to file income taxes.

FLU what is laughable are the responses you have received on the post. There is not going to be any “replacement” of the tax code. There is not going to be everyone “paying their fair share”. Come on guys what a joke. There will simply be more taxation so that there can be more spending.

I actually would be okay if the increased taxes were indeed going to be used for deficit reduction. Honestly that WILL have to happen. If there was a REDUCTION in spending in tandem with an INCREASE in taxes I would applaud that effort because it has to be done.
