    Default The time to TAX THE POOR has come...

    It is the right thing to do. For both THEM,...and the rest of us. This way they can feel like their life has value,... part of the American TEAM!

    The wealthy already pay almost all the taxes in this country. The poor pay none, Zero,..Nada. Time for them to FINALLY kick in their fair share and put some skin in the game. Either pony up the dough and pay your fair share instead of being simply a taker,....OR....work community service and actually earn those entitlements. Which would you prefer?

    This is an idea thats time has FINALLY come. We need to think of those folks too. They need to feel like contributors, like actual Humans, like worthwhile people who contribute to the great American cause instead of just leeching from it. TAX THE POOR........ it is for their own good.

    The poor spend a larger portion of their money on taxes than the rich.

    So then the rich are buying the most things, expensive things. See,...they are already paying most of the taxes. TAX THE POOR who pay none. It is the right thing to do.

    All those semi trucks on the road wearing down the infrastructure don’t belong to poor people


    The water delivery system



    The electrical grind


    Used most by industry


    The entire system is used HARDER by the wealthy to generate them more profits


    They need to pay way more to sustain and replace our weary infrastructure

    They do u stupid fucking SLUT


    The rich do not pay the most taxes, they pay ALL the taxes


    Buried inside a Congressional Budget Office report this week was this nugget: when it comes to individual income taxes, the top 40 percent of wage earners in America pay 106 percent of the taxes. The bottom 40 percent...pay negative 9 percent.


    https://www.cnbc.com/2013/12/11/the-...the-taxes.html

    Time for the bottom 40 to pay their fair share

    In a JUST society, everyone pays their way.
