Repeal the income tax amendment, go back to a census tax, and shut down most of the federal government, leaving only constitutionally mandated departments, and then cut their budgets in half this budget, and in half again next budget. Let the States determine which services they want to provide, or not provide. Time to starve the beast in Washington. Not that it will happen.Jeremynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4056640.post-80403753553194940952010-05-21T19:07:47.829-04:002010-05-21T19:07:47.829-04:00I don't know what I'm doing wrong. It say...I don't know what I'm doing wrong. It says that people under 50K aren't paying taxes. I made a little over 50K and paid in the 10% bracket (not including SS or Medicare). My property taxes were just over 5,000$, another 10%. Throw in all the various taxes, including gas tax, phone taxes, electric utility taxes, vehicle registration property tax, rooms and meals tax, and I'm sure lots of others I missed, probably makes up another 10%. That's 30% of my income gone so it can be wasted by people that didn't earn it. Thought of another way, it's 4 months of working just to pay taxes every year where I don't earn a penny. I hope people out there appreciate it.Jeremynoreply@blogger.com
