    MLee,

    Since you are such a charity, why don't you start handing out some free brakes to those that cant afford it.

      2 things lee
      its not the government's money, its mine
      the government spends too much money
      someone earning 30k pays no taxes and gets all those benefits you mention too
      a couple earning 50k with 2 kids pays no taxes and gets money back from the government

      the whole freaking thing is paid on the back of the higher earners as it is
      its called a progressive tax system

      how about we all try something radical?
      not done in a long long time

      cut spending and see if we still have a revenue problem

          "The Rich" is a nebulous term with the connotation of evil that I've never quite understood. Why exactly are "The Rich" so evil?

          I'd be curous to see how much Gates or Zuckerberg donated to charity in 2009. I'm guessing north of 100x Lee's yearly salary apiece.

              Hopefully we will agree that we don't have to agree or convince each other. ;-)

                  Pay no taxes? I've been right in that bracket and I never got a refund! Not mention sales and use taxes, property tax, tax on investment dividends, fuel taxes, and self-employment tax.

                  I paid plenty and don't have piles of money compounding interest like the rich boys, either.

                  It'll take BIG, very unpopular cuts. Most of the stuff the pols talk about is small-change low hanging fruit. So nothing will change until those in power feel the pinch.

                    well isn't it time for big unpopular cuts?

                    i'll go first
                    eliminate ethanol subsidies
                    would save about $60 billion

                            He's confusing the "Income" tax along with the other "Payroll" taxes. Everyone has income/SS/Medicaid taxes taken out, and some states have a state level income tax as well.

                                Ya, and end up with millions of pregnant teens and newborn babies to load up the Medicare ranks... that'll help.
