Something between 10-15% sounds fair. I also have no problem with consumption tax varying.Spock;1882491 wrote:
Salto wont answer the question of what is a fair income tax. Just like every Democrat ever. THey wont answer it because their number is ridiculous.
Salto I will take your bait and tell what I think: I think that different tax rates are a joke. Everyone should pay something equal. Federal "income" tax should be something around 10% for every person in the US. You earn $15,000 a year you pay $1500, you earn $100,000 a year you pay $10,000 a year and so on.
So what is your number? Remember people are taxed at state and local also.
About consumption.......the more you spend the more you are taxed. Simple.
Do you agree that Ronnie and Bush are responsible for the robbery of Social Security to fund their wars? -

Getting back to the last page conversation, I call bullshit. Doesn't your health insurance being a teacher cover you and family? Why did you need Obamacare?Spock;1882166 wrote:

I have not seen a pay raise in almost 8 years.....insurance increases every year eat it all up. My wife lost her insurance years ago.....i have not talked to a retired teacher in years that can retire and not work. Insurance is $600 a month for a retired teacher. Yea thanks Dems.salto;1882520 wrote:Getting back to the last page conversation, I call bullshit. Doesn't your health insurance being a teacher cover you and family? Why did you need Obamacare? -

Social security in its current format is a Dem problem. THey are the one that plays its political cards when its brought up with the talking points that pubs want to throw granny off a cliff.salto;1882515 wrote:Something between 10-15% sounds fair.

Yes it is. There are SO many issues it's not even worth my time. Absolute nightmare for people to record, calculate and categorize, much less enforce and audit.BoatShoes;1882474 wrote:
2. It is not wholly impractical.
What has generally been proposed is a flat consumption tax with a progressive tax on wages (so excluding savings and investment income). That is much more workable. -

Yup, don't blame your union. Blame the Dems.Spock;1882524 wrote:I have not seen a pay raise in almost 8 years.....insurance increases every year eat it all up.

Or yourself. Doesn't see a wage increase in 8 years, does nothing about it. :laugh: -

You have to appreciate the irony of a person who allegedly subscribes to conservative views bitching about his work situation without actually doing anything to personally improve it. Sounds like someone needs a bunch of entitlements sent his way!Automatik;1882566 wrote:Or yourself. Doesn't see a wage increase in 8 years, does nothing about it. :laugh: -

Market corrections take place every few years. This huge run up is not an artificial bubble. Its a correction of 8 years of terrible government policy. Dems were to stupid to understand they stifled the economy.ptown_trojans_1;1882660 wrote:Sweet.

On infrastructure, the prevailing thought in industry circles is, we'll believe it when we see it.

Besides making the ceremony all about himself (as usual) with his Pocahontas crack, it was interesting how Trump chose to give the code talkers their recognition and award in front of the president who signed the Indian Removal Act. Always has to make his power play. -
