Tax
Cuts
I am
so sick and tired of hearing Democratic congressmen and senators
getting on television and trying to scare the American people
as to what the ramifications of a tax cut would be. The truth
is that the stock market ride is about over, due to the rising
price of oil and overvalued companies among other contributing
factors, so our economy needs a little bump and what better
than put more money into circulation. They will show you all
kinds of arithmetic as to how the tax cut would effect you adversely
but there is one piece of arithmetic they wont show you,
so I will.
$1.00
paid in tax
.70 cost for running the government beaurocracy
------
.30 benefit to taxpayers
$1.00
tax cut
.00 cost for running taxpayer beaurocracy
----- $1.00 benefit to taxpayer
Its
simple folks, the reason these congressmen and senators dont
want to give you a tax cut is because it takes the money and
therefore the power out of their spendthrift, incapable, inefficient
hands to waste on their pet projects,and spend their way back
into office again. The government produces no product, generates
no revenue on its own and is the most messily run monolithic
monument to waste that the world has ever known. Some of the
congressmen and senators are so out out of touch that they are
reduced to standing on the capitol grounds with a Lexus and
a muffler protesting, giving us some of our hard earned money
back. So as I said folks, its simple, who do you think
spends your money more efficiently, you or the government? They
tell you that its not fair that the people who make the
most money will get the biggest tax cut, thats an out
and out lie. Percentage wise Bill Gates doesnt get as
big a tax cut as the people making the least amount of money
because they will pay no tax at all. Of course, by virtue of
paying so much tax he will get a bigger tax cut dollar wise.
So will other people who make a lot of money. But where do you
think the money invested in the stock markets and starting new
businesses come from? These people dont take the money
they get back and bury it in the ground or put it in a vault.
They put it into investments to work for them to make more money
and pay more taxes, not to mention creating jobs. And hey all
you Bill Clinton fans, remember him? The man who feels your
pain, who is for the little man, who is so dead set against
a tax break for the rich. Well he just pardoned Mark Rich, a
man who probably owes hundreds of millions of dollars in back
taxes and fled the country to keep from paying it. Not to mention
that the scum bag has been trading with Americas enemies,
even during the embargo's. I cant wait to get e-mail from
someone defending Mr. Slicko for that. Wake up America. Stop
believing those people when they tell you that they have your
best interest at heart If they did they would give your money
back to you to spend as you please, not take your hard earned
tax dollars and feed it to the big fat sow in Washington?
What
do you think?

Bless America
