this is quintessential 'liberal speak.'
it's like you guys just want to talk yourselves into a fairytale about how you're going to spend other peoples money and how everyone will get little chocolate candies on their hospital beds, shots won't hurt, etc, ignoring that your other monolithic pet projects are just sucking resources dry.
I'm talking about spending MY money. I have no kids, don't own property, and make a good bit of money which means I pay A LOT of taxes. I'm still not a greedy jerkoff regardless of those factors and wouldn't mind giving more if it made this country even the slightest bit more tolerable. Grow up.
I'm not sure he meant you were greedy, perhaps you should just suck it up or move to a tax haven?
I don't think it's fair to call me greedy when I complain about nearly half of my income going to taxes.
And I love how you guys moan about taxes, check out how much the average person like me is paying in Britain. Then moan.
hey, I wasn't pointing a finger at you but if you're feeling guilty the shoe must fit
I'm not feeling guilty, YOU are Since you're the one who doesn't mind "paying more".
And I love how you guys moan about taxes, check out how much the average person like me is paying in Britain. Then moan.
apparently you missed what I said. no guilt here, I would just like a better country to live in
Have you ever travelled outside the U.S.? Seriously, you already have it ridiculously awesome and you probably don't even realize it. I call it America Syndrome. Also, do you realize how many programs we currently have in place to aid the poverty stricken? Approximately 13,493. Those are just the programs, not the organizations themselves. Some people just want to be devoid of any responsibility. A.k.a. poor. They're lazy, and no amount of money tossed at their feet will change their mindset. You might as well save your tax dollars and spend them on waitresses instead.
