Jeff Bezos claims child tax credit.

The wealthy have not harmed me. And if people are making $100K, what’s wrong with that?

“The wealthy” are actually the people who have hired me and make my lifestyle possible.

Mine had a 4 cylinder that made maybe 70 hp on a good day, with a 4 speed manual transmission.

Guess you did not get to see its potential....

LOL!!

so citizenship should cost each man woman child and corporation (corporate personhood) the same amount of money?

that’s about 12k for each. How many people in your household? Can you afford that? Can most?

So basically you’re admitting that people wealthier than you ARE already primarily funding the government.

But, is it fair that they have to bear the lion’s share of the burden? If you want to talk about what’s fair, people should be taxed according to what government they consume. So everyone would owe for common stuff to everyone. But then I shouldn’t have to pay for the US patent service. I shouldn’t have to pay for the Bureau of Land Management; I don’t use federal lands. I shouldn’t have to pay for welfare, because I don’t use it. I use roads, police, fire, and various other services.

But, because, as you say, most people can’t afford the government they consume, then that falls on the wealthier people to pay for it.

But you haven’t made the case that the burden should be on the wealthiest people. Wealth envy isn’t a justification. It’s just sour grapes.

That should be the end of it, but it won’t.

Also, when I read that, the “FINISH HIM” from the mortal kombat games popped in my head.

That thing would have needed a lot more than I was willing to put into it. Dude. Fake wood grain. It was gold and **** brown. GOLD! And not in a good way.

Now. I met the woman who would become my wife in those days. And she was smokin’ hot. I definitely married up. I am just fortunate that she saw past the gold and **** brown pinto wagon with the fake wood grain sides and rust perforated rocker panels. But it was my first car, and I was able to keep it running well the whole time I had it.

He should feel grateful someone else is paying most of his share. Instead he whines because they aren't paying even more.

 

[jamil]

If you listen to anything I say let it be this. Do. Not. Enter. That. Thread.


I warned you.

I’ll take your word for it. Thanks for the warning.

I don't know what he's talking about, you should really go take a look.

Long term trends. Debt to gdp started going up in the 1980’s. Apparently according to you that has nothing to do with the lower taxes or the rise of China/Mexico/Canada.

I’m still patiently waiting for your theory

People have given you the reason why. You just keep ignoring the obvious.

 

[jamil]

I don't know what he's talking about, you should really go take a look.

I suspect you’re trying to get me to puke. And then when I do, you’ll just laugh at me.

Well. The wagons didn’t have that problem. You had to do a little more than touch the rear bumper to get them to explode.

Just a joke, man…

 

[jamil]

Just a joke, man…

So was mine.

Obviously it took more than touching the bumper. But it’s true enough that the wagons were a little safer.

Taxing the s**t out of them for leaving was the trump plan.......

he threatened and then they stayed

that threT led to a boom economy here

Trump threatens payback for U.S. companies that move abroad

President-elect Donald Trump is threatening retribution for U.S. companies that move their business operations overseas and still try to sell their product to Americans.

www.google.com

And this was a bad thing because...

See above, your words not mine

His words meant taxing the **** out of them for being "successful" for being here. Why would they want to operate here when they could move operations (and jobs) overseas where they would get to keep more of their profits? Trump's policy was meant to stop this.

No, No it's good stuff. Take a look

He’s right. Large breasts and yoga pants. What could be better?

 

[jamil]

Curiosity got the best of me. And you know, at first, i was like, I hate you? And then some one posted some eye bleach. It’s a pretty balanced thread. And I can ignore what I don’t like. So I don’t hate you anymore.

See I told you there's some good stuff. I guess I could have told you to watch the first one, but there was already a warning
