how has it been sustained so well elsewhere?


Smaller countries, less people, higher taxes, less defense spending, less support of other countries, they pay much less for the UN, etc.



I dont think if we figure things out on per capita that the number of people matters as much. The other factors Im completely willing to duplicate here though. Raise the taxes, cut the spending, take care of home first, ,,all sounds good to me.


I am curious what the incomes are of all the people that are pro raising taxes lol and if they would support a flat increase and not more of an increase for the wealthy.

Flat tax... Much better than a so called 'fair tax' (which taxes consumption and would hit the middle more than the top).

Math works good. If I can still add right 19% across the board tax with no 'loop' holes or right offs for individuals and a straight 26% tax for CORPORATIONS would reduce the deficit in a massive way (provided some 'services' were actually cut)... Within a decade that could then be reduced to a straight 10% tax for individuals and the Fed would do just fine. (provided that cuts were not 'snuck' back in).

Does that include the reduction of cost to run the IRS? Though this would put many a tax professional out of a job and with not many marketable skills lol. I am all for it though.

One of the 'services' that such a tax system would show immediately as a good cut...

Tax code would be a single piece of paper... No need for armies of tax agents.

Death to the Federal Reserve, Death to the IRS! Death to Futures! Death to bogus Wall Street Speculation driving prices higher instead of actual demand driving prices! Death to mandatory industries!

Man I am in a deadly mood tonight!

I think I will go to bed under candle light and Depece Mode...

The news last night showed a congressional interview with key Obama originators of the health care bill, along with some affected businesses.

The doctor who was interviewed as one of the original sources that the costs would be less, now says the costs will be more. The small business owners said that due to the new higher costs, company supplied health care will need to be eliminated since it uses up all the profits of the business.
