You’re right of course. We should eliminate the all deductions including the standard desuction, child tax credits, earned income credits, personal exemptions, etc. as well. | |||

I remember plugging my nose when I voted for McCain, literally it nauseated me so much but the alternative stunk even more. So again a no vote for Trump or a stay home is Half vote for Biden. ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | |||

Don't forget, the scumbag also facilitated the Abraham Accords. And, there wasn't any new war, while said scumbag was occupying the WH. Q | |||

Yes.... I agree. The federal tax code remains a major source of frustration and controversy for Americans, and a hindrance to economic growth and opportunity. Other countries, such as Estonia, have proven that sufficient tax revenue can be collected in a less frustrating and more efficient way. This report provides an analysis of the key features of the Estonian income tax system—a simple, flat individual income tax combined with a distributed profits tax —and its potential effects if implemented in the United States. By simplifying the federal tax code, the reform would substantially reduce compliance costs, potentially saving U.S. taxpayers more than $100 billion annually.

Take it up with your local elected leaders. They control your local taxes. Not the federal government.

Right. I pay taxes in localities where I don't get to vote for those elected leaders. To those elected leaders and their constituants I and other property owners like me are the cash cows that pay for everything. Classic case of taxation without representation. | |||

It'll never happen here. It should, but it won't. There's not a chance that our legislators will do away with their easiest way of garnering votes. I have long advocated a flat tax. 10% from every swinging dick in the country and we'd be rolling in money. Instead, for votes, a small minority pay the vast majority of taxes, many pay none, many still get free money back (and, of course, "back" is a misnomer as they never put any in to begin with). ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil."

That reminds me of the stories told about LBJ. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual."

Florida Governor DeSantis, having recently dropped out of the Presidential race, is apparently not planning on coasting home. He published an exciting announcement video yesterday, describing four Amendments that Florida will propose to the U.S. Constitution: Congressional term limits, a balanced budget requirement, a presidential line-item veto, and a requirement that all laws — like vaccine mandates and insider trading bans — must also apply to members of Congress without any exemptions. https://twitter.com/GovRonDeSa...995981963375095?s=20 https://www.coffeeandcovid.com...7n3&utm_medium=email "Some things are apparent.

He really shouldn't be making videos while driving.  Seriously, that's the kind of stuff he should be doing! Get back to FL and do some good. SIGforum: For all your needs! Imagine our influence if every gun owner in America was an NRA member! Click the box>>>  | |||
