From today’s Government standpoint, If it is not taxable, it is not legal. For the Liberals (Socialist), If it is taxable, the taxes should be ‘Progressive’ based on the earnings of the individual.
I was reading the following Fox news article:
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,298271,00.html
Rep. Dingell (Democrat) from Michigan's 15th District is proposing new taxes because it will save the ‘Environment’. Liberals (Socialist) are at it again in Class Warfare and Environmentalism to attack the work of high-achievers and wealth.
- * A 50-cent-a-gallon tax on gasoline and jet fuel, phased in over five years, on top of existing taxes.
-
- * A tax on carbon, at $50 a ton, released from burning coal, petroleum or natural gas.
-
- * Phase-out of the interest tax deduction on home mortgages for homes over 3,000 square feet. Owners would keep most of the deduction for homes at the lower end of the scale, but it would be eliminated entirely for homes of 4,200 feet or more.
I wonder how presidential candidate Edwards is reacting to this proposal? Doesn’t Edwards own a 28,000 square foot house? How forth coming are the Kennedy’s in paying higher taxes? I suspect there is ‘mice’ print loopholes in these tax proposals that exempts them.
A thought came to mind. Since all taxes seem to be ‘Progressive’ but sales taxes, why hasn’t the Liberals (Socialist) thought up the idea of a Progressive Sales Tax? The Federal Government issues a national ID card to each legal American citizen containing cumulative IRS data and the card must be swiped at every sales transaction to determine a progressive sales tax based on the cumulative IRS data. If you are an illegal resident, in America, you are issued an ID card to be used like an ATM card and have a nice shopping spree.
Both sides of the isle, Republican and Democrats, are fixated on vote buying schemes by butchering the IRS laws beyond repair and creation/expansion of government programs not authorized by the Constitution. Eventually the taxes will break the back of this Federal Republic.
I wonder how long it will be before a Liberal (Socialist) reads this article and submits my sarcastic thought as a new tax proposal?
