Its true. We are in a state of being where President of the US is making neat little videos telling you why the government cannot give you more of your money, and that it actually cost them money.
This logic is a complete 180 of how things should be, and basically assumes everyones money is really the governments, and they are just letting you keep some of it but not all of it because it costs them money. By logic it cannot cost you anything if the money was never yours to begin with. But the only logical way to agree with a tax cut costing the government money if that money is really theirs in the first place.
If a person cannot watch this, and conclude this administration is out of its mind, and nothing but far left ideologically driven then they are a waste of a human being, anti-freedom, stupid, and deserve to have everything taken away from them by the government. What happen's when the government cannot "afford" to even let you keep half your earnings, and they make a video saying unless we get 60% they are going to have to borrow more money. Exactly where is that line? Is there a line at all? These people are attempting to slide step there way right into a communistic style state right here in America where the gov is the all provider, and being all the all provider of everything means people don't need much money on their own. What do you need money for if we give you everything and take care of you craddle to grave? Remember these so called rich people are also paying state and local taxes so its entirely plausible a rich person without a lot of deductions could very well be paying 60%+ of their income into taxes? Especially in a place like NYC or some other progressive controlled area. We are a lot closer to people paying almost all their income into taxes than these people paying almost nothing. Many of these rich people are business owners, and that means the rest of us suffer. We face higher prices at stores to make up for the cost, reduced benefits at our jobs, lower pay, fewer raises if any, hell maybe even a pay cut if we want to stay employed.
But remember what MOST of these taxes are going to pay for. Entitlement programs make up around 2/3rds of just the Federal budget, and that doesn't even include the huge amounts the states are paying into these programs, too. How much to things like the Earned Income Credit "cost"? We can "afford" that but not the 70 billion a year not extending all the tax cuts would cost?
We really can't "afford" for no one in this country to pay no more than 20% in taxes? What is so damn important a 20% maximum tax rate for all taxes combined could not work? Hell we made it from 1791-1913 without a personal income tax at all. How'd we manage to do that? We had the War of 1812, the Civil War, Indian Wars, and the country was expanding West as fast as a horse could pull a wagon. We quickly became the biggest economic boom the world has ever seen.
Now with a much more powerful government, and our more successful citizens being taxed over half their wealth we are in stagnation, and the country is no better off from just about any perspective. We owe foreign investors trillions of dollars, we have over 100 trillion in future liability we have no way to pay for, and these dimwits have us distracted with a 70 billion a year tax cut. How about the fact our economic model of freedom is ****ing crushed, and we have no hope in gaining it back anytime soon because both political parties are in collusion. What would people say in 1770 if the British were taxing the colonists at 50-60%?
Our country was founded on individual liberty and free enterprise. How can anyone believe that is the case anymore? No we are quickly becoming slaves to the government where our own earnings are not really ours anymore, and where a business cannot make many of its own decisions. Then their earnings are taxed to death. Who are they in business for? Themselves or the government? Its sounding more like the government each and every day. They decide who you can do business with, how you do that business, what wages you have to pay, what benefits you have to give out, who you can hire, and then take half your profits away through taxes and mandatory spending. You have the government lawyers in court arguing the 2nd Amendment does not apply to citizens, and that they have the power to tell you what to spend what money you have left over from taxes on mandatory products and services you must buy or face fines/taxes. If you don't pay those fine/taxes for not spending money on what they tell you to buy you can end up in jail. Heaven forbid a parent or relative dies. They'll tax a dead persons money at 50%. Even when you die you still gotta give half your money to the government.
