Really, what is your other suggestion. It wasn't a rhetorical question. If people aren't doing it right how would you have it done, outside of the ridiculous idea of licenseing. (in which case assholes would also have to get one) Scary ain't it?  |
Ok. No it is not that I don't want to pay anything myself. Everyone should pay. All people should pay across the board the same amount as a percent of the income they earn. Pick a number. Say 20%. All people should pay 20% of their income into the system to pay for those that cannot. What we have here on the otherhand, is people driving up in their BMW's to by formula with food stamps. We have generations of people who have learned that they should neither contribute or work. It is a large and complicated subject for sure. But taxing people who worked hard to get ahead and sacrificed to make good for themselves and families should not have to carry the complete burden. Spread it out. A mini VAT tax would help as well for all goods, except maybe food. I don't have all the answers but what we have now is not working and what Obama and McCain have put forth are not solutions either.
