Umm, did you not start a discussion thread on a poli-sci MB? Isn't the point to generate and digest the opinions of other posters? No?

Ohhhh, you just wanted to troll, the board, got it.

You're interpreting people laughing at you for being "pissed off." Seriously, keep it coming -- for people who believe so many Obama supporters are pure morons, you are the gift that keeps on giving.

So you're admitting, specificly, to a conscious effort to troll and troll only, our forum, eh?

Well, thanks at least for making the Mods job much easier. /shrug

There are those who pay at a federal rate on earned income of 35%. A bit more than ZERO%. Sounds like they pay a lot.
Investment income (depending on type) is taxed at 15% max. Which also seems fair since corporate profits (from which dividends are derived) have already been taxed. Essentaiily MY invested capital is taxed TWICE. And now they want to tax it more? So civil service lazies and welfare queens can bask in the sun for doing zip?
47% of the population are parasites? Really? So children, the elderly, the disabled who cannot work, the working poor who don't pay federal income taxes but DO pay payroll and sales taxes...ALL OF THEM are parasites?

You are the epitome of the selfish voter. "Wahh, MY invested capital is taxed twice! Some welfare queen is gonna live high on the hog off of MY taxes!!! Wahh-hahh-hahh!!!" Here's a civil lesson for you, soldier boy: 47% of the population are NOT parasites. You are NOT by any means better than anyone else simply because you have money.

I await your poorly informed retort.

Chikldren do not pay taxes anyway. WOW are you bright today.
Working poor. They should pay taxes. I did when I was poor.
THe elderely did pay taxes. Some of them. Did you really read my post.
Payroll tax is a misnomer. YOU GET IT BACK. You knew that right?
Sales tax? Now you're on a roll.
YOU are a sick parasite. Yes I was a soldier. I contributed to my country while you smoked crack like our president. And I am a millionaire. And you are a sissy. I will remain what I am. You will remain what you are.
I was better educated in my teens (and better informed) than you are now or will ever be. Go back to your bottle and meth.

Yes I will remain what I am and thank God for that. No one cares that you're a millionaire. Whoopee-freakin'-doo. You want a cookie?

You said 47% are parasites. You did NOT specify between different people, you said the WHOLE 47% are parasites. You said this. Go back and read what you wrote. If you have a problem with the tax code, run for office and fix the tax code yourself. But it's much easier to sit on your ass and complain about half the country, including hard working taxpayers who work in the public sector. They do jobs that you won't do, yet you dare to bash them. Look at those rescue workers in NY and NJ...putting out fires, evacuating sick patients, rescuing people from floods and fires. Fire fighters, cops, EMT's, doctors and nurses, National Guard...bunch of parasites, huh?

You are not worth half of what those heroes are. You didn't contribute to your country, you served as a slave to the war mongers in power, then you actually have the audacity to DEFEND the war in Vietnam. You're not a hero, you're a lackey. A lapdog. A bootlick. A SISSY.

So the people protecting your sorry ass aren't contributing to their country, they are slaves to war mongers?

I'll have to differ with Palmetto. You need to keep away from your bottle and meth.....

Joey Stylez? Are you a hairdresser? You seem to have a very foppish way about you. A silly little limp wrist. BTW is it too manly to post on the Landing Strip for you?
Hey I worked in the public sector in the Army. Dirty job. My responsibility.
BTW, after active duty I served in the National Guard as was my agreed to obligation. I have a lower regard for lots of civil servants - I do not consider police and fire in that category - they are almost paramilitary.
Now get back to polishing your toenails.

And people wonder why (R) is viewed as homophobic.

Even IF Joey was the gayest gay man in the history of gay, how is that relevant to a political discussion were're having here? Especially one on the internet?
