There is nothing wrong with donating to a certain charity designed for a certain type of people. If there were, nobody could donate to anything.

I have donated to causes for people unlike me and like me.

My opinion is that only those with deep rooted racial biases would even consider this statement valid at any level.

As for the OP. Obama has made no qualm about paying his taxes.

He understands that the cost of freedom is more than the lives of our soldiers, it hits our pocket books too.

I am proud to pay my taxes to support the greatest country in the world to continue to be the greatest country in the world.

Dear Heart, it was a joke. there is no such thing as the United Caucasian College Fund.

sorry to go here... Pres Reagan formed a commitee to study our tax structures and they returned a report stating the following.....

Suppose you were told that not a penny of your Federal tax went to do anything for the country or its people? Your Federal tax goes one place only..... to the Federal Reserve Private Bank to pay the interest on the national debt....period! No principal, just interest. Not to roads, education, health care, zilch, zip, nada.

I do believe in a tax base to support a nation, just not an unfair and unconstitutional one. If Congress printed our money and NOT the Fed, we wouldn't have to pay any interest or fall subject to the strong arm tactics of "their" goons, the IRS, yes the IRS is not a government agency! It was created "illegally" by the "privately owned" Federal Reserve to collect their "debts" after they siezed control of our money..... Abolish Federal Reserve, give the right of interest free money back to the people! Kill 2 birds with one stone.... that is REAL and positive change that we don't have to rely on our leaders for.

Why would you say that? There's nothing wrong with donating to the United Negro College Fund.

Hey Winx!

Good morning, Fanta.

Oh my god! Do you actually believe he wants to be a president to make president's salary and pay taxes?

Can't knock that?

Have you accounted for the taxes he intends to evade from all the under-table income that he will receive in 4 years? You think that is taxable?

I don't account for things that have no proof of existing.

As was stated last night on TV,
Would you rather pay 25% of what you earn or pay 25% more for everything you buy?

Whatever it takes to make the country a better place.

Some evidence is not where we would normally look for evidence.

blah. our president is entertainment.

his book sales are the proof.
when is the movie coming out????

and the fact that seriosuly he jsut wants his face and name plastered everywhere.

i am reminded of saddam's statues that he had built (that were later toppled) in Iraq.


im currently awaiting the obama statues to start going up somewhere in all downtown cities.

and im sure glad I didnt buy the book. nor even check it out from the library.

I for one do not worry bout IRS reports when it comes upon me to donate...

I just give and leave...

No need to get credit for it else it is no longer a donation but a tax write off...

EEEK...

do the math.

If every working american paid a straight percent (say 10%) with NO deductions and NO write offs.

WE would not need an agency to collect (nor would we have to FORCE employers to act as the tax man).

Simplify the tax code the right way.

Using the KISS principle. (Keep It Simple Stupid).

AMEN BROTHER!

Newt was the one suggesting the 25% income Tax. It does seem a bit high. He is considering running for pres.
What hes the withholding been? About 20%?

Many choose not to believe that a tax on wages is unconstitutional. Be that as it may, most pay up to 35% of their wages to this federal income tax. As found by Reagans commission while in office, none of these payments go to profit the people. They simply pay the interest on the nation debt, PERIOD!

No roads, health care, education, social security, NOTHING, just interest on the money our government "borrows on our behalf"!

How simple it would be if people actually got fed up enough to read the Constitution, Bill Of Rights, and the tax code. They might even then decide they better read the Patriot Act as well.

We're SO Scr*wed! It's easier to take $10 instead of $20 when you're entitled to NONE AT ALL. After all, you don't want people to start reading and understanding their rights! Throw them a bone to prevent it!

I have paid my taxes since birth.lol It is what it is. No need to bich about it. If I made as much money as the Obamas..I would also give as much as I could. TO WHATEVER charity I CHOSE! No one has the right to tell anyone how to do it or to whom to give it.

Someone wrote why not the caucasion fund....whatever. A personal charity is a personal choice.

I give away all the time, to charities that also give choices to deduct from my taxes. I never do it. I feel as though what I give away I give away. To me..my personal choice is to not get credit for what I gave. I don't give money...though if I could I would.

I applaud the Obamas for putting their money where their mouth is. You go pres.

The Bidens...whos business is it anyway whether they give to many charities? It's their money, their choice...not ours.


By the way AB...I like your tax code. I think it could work. Away with the IRS. They can't even keep their own house clean. They are a bunch of f'd up book keepers. They have been told to get it together. I went into their site and found their own crap. Transcripts.
