Why doesn't the Goverment Cut taxes by 50% for everyone
 

if they lowered there taxes by 50% the rich would bring there money back into the states. which would increase jobs and fuel the economy. We get taxed like 40% now make it 20% and i bet more money would magically appear. let them bring there money back to invest in the states

otherwise companies will continue to move jobs offshore and the rich will hoard there money offshore

It just seems like a simple solution

Why everyone? I think just pure blooded white males would suffice

Why? Because our president took us from the largest surplus to the largest deficit in history..... :disgust

We have always had the deficite, at least after Lincoln. But the govenrment would never do that. too many hands in that pot.

america != cuba

we actually need a 50% increase to pay for all the entitlement programs.

I think you're right. Think about it, an estimated $13 trillion is outside of the economy hidden overseas by large corportations and high paid professionals. Not billion, trillion.

i think they should be jacked up.

Exactly the gov should have to budget what they spend. the rich are getting richer which is about 1% of the population

fuck dual incomes your going to have to send your kids to work to make ends meet if your middle class.

this might sound crazy but there should be a cap on how much you can make like 500 mil a year why does one person or even family need more then that.
we also need to cut back on Gov. alot bring back the troops and get rid of the military, cut nasa contracts etc.

fuck it completely restructure. time to focus on our country and educate the kids to improve what we have now because its all falling apart and our leader dont give a fuck because they have never had to worry about money.

the way i see it is there is enough money in this world to feed all the starving children and educate them till they can fend for themselves.

trickle down doesnt work, if your rich you put the extra money in the bank.The company my father works for saw records profits what did they cut people. Everyone in this fortune 10 company does 3 jobs for one salary.

Will never happen. Lust for power is in the blood of all men. If you and I were among that 1% we would almost surely do as they do, which is to do everything possible to further increase our power and wealth. The middleclass bears the financial burden and blames the welfare poor (who comprise the minority of poor folks - most poor people are honest 9-5 workers often holding multiple jobs just like the middleclass and are the nuts and bolts of the economy) who actually use miniscule amounts of money (although I agree tha finding ways to discourage the use and abuse of it is needed).

Once in awhile their is a hiccup or the whole thing falls apart and we build anew.

Because the country would go bankrupt so quick

Cut the military? :1orglaugh

A complete restructuring would take an armed revolution. Seriously.

because then goverment wouldn't have money to spend, so it would print money which would result in huge inflation... and at the end of the day, nothing would be gained, you would get 50% less taxes, but each dollar you would make would be worth half as much...

governments dont turn back things where they are earning a quick huge ass buck on.. Around here theyve put a "temporary" quarter on top of the gas price like 10 years ago. They never turned it back. Every time when it comes to discussion it gets silenced to death or backed up with weak ass arguments. Money hungry assholes who try to pull every penny out of its civilians ass with an increasing trend. It will never go down.

What they do is pull of 1% of one thing and plus the other with 10%. Or plus one thing with 10% and pull of 1% of that same thing a year later, acting like they do everyone a favor.. theyre 'legal' filthy fucking thiefs.

because half of nothing leaves nothing!

You had a good thing going there until you said the government should cut the nasa budget.

nasa is probably the greatest thing ever to come out of america.

if anything, it should get additional funding.

better than paying medical bills and having the streets full of mental cases, huh?

thats what they have already done.

It didnt work for the republicans and reganomics but the trickle down worked great during the clinton era. all the .comers where spending money like crazy

Roger, I can explain it to you... but not here..... over the phone would be best.

You know my number.

Let's reconnect. :D

Trickle down does, and is working. Those tax cuts Bush made did work, and our economy is strong and trucking along. Home ownership is at its highest rate ever.

whos really going to attack us LOL. Do I think the muslims hate us sure they do but I doubt they would mess with us if we didnt try to take there oil and dictate how they should run there country.

Like we are much better then them. we had slaves less than 50 years ago and woman had no rights i can go on and on.

Its like me telling Silvercash how they should run there program they would give me the :321GFY

I know its crazy idea and would never happen only because they have perfected contoling the sheep with fear.

Your dollar valute sucks shit.

Bush needs to try throwing some money at your deficit, and raising the valute of the US dollar on the world market.

I think you are out of touch with reality.

What tax cuts? Our dollar is very weak our economy is not strong
hell the peso is catching up

I truely feel sorry for the next few generations if they dont turn things around. because america will be like a 3rd world country the rich and the Poor.

Which could be a good thing LOL

he's to busy raising the prices of oil because thats were his money is right now. buy low sell high. when they have all the oil they will raise the dollar again. but guess who it will only benefit.

I understand but there is nothing we can do. I just have to make my money then find my own utopia in some 3rd world

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Roger - I can't even begin to argue with you on the importance of military. If you don't get it you don't get it so try not to sound like you know what you're talking about when you obviously don't. The USA is the largest superpower in the world. Get rid of the army and all of a sudden you've opened the gates to Rome. Who do you think will storm it and rape/murder/pillage? The Gauls. Do you think if the Romans ask nicely after hundreds of years of raping and murdering the Gauls they will give them a break and leave the gates and allow them to go back to business as usual?

Think.

I think its irrelevant what the United States does. More countries are experiencing economic freedom and political stability (more or less.) The US had this monopoly for 100 years. Read up on economics and forget all the political bullshit you are being fed 24/7 on tv and radio.

what are you talking about. Let any country try and invade our soil and watch how civlians react I'd put a bullet in your head. why do you think we are not winning the war in Iraq unless your one of those people who think we are. what is the largest super power in the world really?
Its not like it was where you killed with a sword or maybe even a bullet, one bomb now can blow up 1000's of people without physical contact

How many people are in asia versus America? lets try to fuck with them LOL

Exactly the world is changing and becoming much smaller so to speak. but the Gov does do a good job in brain washing I give it to them. keep people in fear and they are easier to control.

They are incredible at brainwashing. I agree with everything you said Roger.

The tax structure needs to be changed. A lower flat tax is in order. We may see this in the coming years.

Nasa should be revamped. How is it that Branson & Allen can figure out how to get people to the moon without spending a hundred million yet Nasa can't even do it for a Billion within 5 years?

The Military is overfunded and overstaffed by at least 60%. I don't see how foot soldiers are relevant in the 21st century.

Government is no longer effective at it's current size. Actually government is no longer effective. Period.

The US has the legal and ideological and cultural infrastructure to do this. All it needs is the political will. The same neo-liberal economic policies may help the country I reside in--The Philippines. Unfortunately, 'economic reform' here is interpreted as raising taxes. The exact opposite of what needs to be done :(

how about cutting taxes and still having rich people go offshore to make even more $.
