The Tax Game
I was just on a post where it was talking about how the wealthy finds ways out of paying taxes so the burden is put on the middle class and the poor. I was watching some videos on You Tube and did some reading about if we would have slashed the Bush tax cuts, would it have really helped, i did not think about this before but from what i found out, it would not matter if we raised taxes on the wealthy or not. There are so many loop holes, they would find a way out of most of them anyways.
I know Fair Tax and Flat Tax have come up a lot over the last 20+ years and to be honest i think it would be a good idea to go forward with this type of Tax System. Everyone pays, You, Me, People Visiting the country, and undocumented workers. Those that are against healthcare for all, well one of these tax systems would pay for it and it would not be a burden on a certain group of tax payers, everyone pays and everyone benefits.
In the slide-show i posted Democrats and Republicans talking about Fair Tax and how it would benefit Every American. I consider my self more of a Democrat, well a JFK democrat than i do a Republican. I think both parties to some degree support it, but are afraid to pass it. Is it time we vote for Fair Tax friendly candidates?
I want everyone opinions, there is no right or wrong opinion. Everyone can learn something from someone and maybe we could all put our heads together and come up with a logical answer, It does not seem congress can do anything to fix the current mess we are in, Both Parties have had their chances and it is doing nothing but getting worse. Placing blame on this or placing blame on that. Half the country is for one thing and the other half is for something else. Well if those two halves come together and discuss it maybe we can actually fight for one thing instead continuing on the same path we are on. It does not matter if one party is right and the other is wrong, as long as we have these two parties fighting over right or wrong, nothing is going to get done and the situation is going to get worse.
