    are you nuts, I don't think you have a concept of reason, by saying that your saying there should be no taxes then . Because the first 1% didn't help anything in your book. You people are a hoot.

    Why would anyone who cares about people in need even look at the hate party's plan. They want it in their pockets that's as plain as the nose on your face, With the 1 1/2 trillion dollar tax cut for the wealthy in the same breath they went for more then that in cutting funding for every aspects of the safety net.

    Cool. Now we need a higher booze tax instead of a higher capital gains tax. Just to be fair, it should apply to milk as well.

    Taxes are so low now that we are not collecting enough revenue, so it stands to reason when we raise taxes on the rich we will increase our revenue to sufficient levels to eliminate the deficit and begin paying down the debt.

    And if we can't do it now while the economy is good, we will never be able to do it during the next recession.

    What a red herring.

    When did taxing of any amount ever help anyone?

    The idea is to balance the budget.

    Something Republicans seem to have forgotten we need to do.

    We need to tax capital gains just like a paycheck. Maybe even more. Capital gains are easier to come by. People have to work for a paycheck.

    You're too stupid to comprehend that even if you taxed the rich 100%, you would still have people on the street. This isn't about taxes you retard; it's about throwing the mentally ill out there because of leftist dumbasses who claimed State Mental Hospitals were cruel and unusual punishment and that they had a better idea.

    Some idea right?

    I am amused when low IQ dumbfucks try to lecture us using a leftist meme like trickle down. But dumber still is this notion of trickling up or that giving the Government even more of our hard earned wealth results in solutions.

    I am amused when morons on the left believe that turning citizens into dependent wards of the state is caring.
