Why not just start the Fair Tax? At least then the people who are paid under the table, or other illegal means will be paying the taxes that they aren't paying. Oh wait.......nevermind the politicians would figure out a way to spend all the money that came in from something like that and we would still be in debt.

It will never be enough to fill up the tank if you don't plug some of the leaks or at least regulate them.

i think we should not have to work or pay taxes. If rich people have so much money why dont they pay all the taxes? They have enough money to pay us too.

The young one's don't seem to care... for now.

:bigeye:

I didn't when I was young. By the time I was 18 I was the bleeding heartiest liberal, nearly socialist kid you'd ever seen.





Then I got a job and took a few economics classes. That cleared that BS right up.

Fun fact: get a degree in finance or accounting. That'll let you discover just how inefficient, corrupt, and incomprehensibly stupid our current tax code and finance laws are.

Want to hear something crazy? I have degrees in Management and Public Administration and I can see how stupid our tax code and finance laws are. Shouldn't our elected officials be good at both Management and Public Administration????
