Taxes at Lowest Levels in 60 Years

[spike]

As taxes fell, the economy rose. Reagans tax cuts (remember the 28% top bracket) produced the longest peacetime boom in history.

Reagan's policies made record setting national debt. I'm not sure what you mean by longest peacetime boom.

You complained about many Americans not paying taxes which is large part due to Earned Income Tax Credit. A republican invention which was expanded by Reagan.

Taxes are lowest in 60 years yet 44% of Tea Baggers think they have gone up. Why do you think these people are so misinformed?

That poll is BS.
I don't know anybody in this area that was polled.

Here, it's not the tax rate ATM, it's what HAS to come, and the
elitist non-representation, and in-your-face corruption that's the big driver.

The so called tax cut was so minuscule most don't even notice that, as much
as they do grocery prices, and (sin tax) going up.
Just watch gas hit 7 bucks a gallon soon.
All that sucking up to the king didn't mean jack-squat, except to make us look like idiots as a country more.

Obama already sees he has to start getting on board with the Reps, because
come november he'll Have to deal with them.

Make the Bush tax cuts permanent. Then I will believe he wants to cut taxes.

I know Bush cut my taxes. I saw nothing from Obama...no matter what they said.

 

[Cerise]

How can more government spending equal low taxes?

 

[spike]

Make the Bush tax cuts permanent. Then I will believe he wants to cut taxes.

Fuck the tax cuts for the wealthy. Tax cuts for the majority.

I know Bush cut my taxes. I saw nothing from Obama...no matter what they said.

I doubt your wealthy enough for the Bush tax cuts to be better for you than Obama's tax cuts. Give us some numbers.

How many people do you know?

Here, it's not the tax rate ATM, it's what HAS to come, and the

So some fantasy shit that you made up with buzzwords is more important than facts.

Just watch gas hit 7 bucks a gallon soon.

Ok we'll watch for your other fantasies.

Must be hard keeping up with Facebook.

 

[catocom]

I didn't like the policy change at facebook shortly after joining,
so I scrambled it, and haven't been back.
We've still got a decent grape vine though.
I talk to several friends frequently, that own retail businesses.

The majority got tax cuts from Bush. He even added to the march toward socialism by giving more to those in need.

My personal income is none of your business. However, I took quite a cut in taxes under GW's plan. It did not go down under Obama.

the major tax cuts enacted in the 2009 economic stimulus bill actually reduced federal income taxes for tax year 2009 for 98 percent of all working families and individuals..

Sorry to hear you ended up in the 2%.

 

[ResearchMonkey]

Fuck, I'm in that same 2% as Gonz. It must be a liberal consideration of 2%, which could actually be anything including vegetable soup.

 

[spike]

Well at least we know that 98% got a reduction and taxes are the lowest in 60 years.

Now if we only knew why a lot of the tea baggers are so misinformed.

 

[Cerise]

Now if we could only know how more government spending can result in lower taxes?

 

[ResearchMonkey]

Now if we only knew why a lot of the tea baggers are so misinformed.

The bag are 'prolly blocking your vision. Feels good man!

 

[Gonz]

Now if we only knew why a lot of the tea baggers are so misinformed.

Because they're in the top 52%, you know, the ones who actually pay taxes & they KNOW they didn't see any more money this year?

 

[spike]

The bag are 'prolly blocking your vision. Feels good man!

If my vision was blocked it wouldn't explain why they are misinformed. That doesn't make any sense.

 

[spike]

Because they're in the top 52%, you know, the ones who actually pay taxes & they KNOW they didn't see any more money this year?

Some of them pay taxes and some of them don't. A large number of them actually think taxes went up when in fact they went down for 98% of America.

Hey I'm not the fella getting TeaBagged. Sorry, I wish I could help you past your confusion.

Taxes are going to rise. I hope that helps.

 

[spike]

Hey I'm not the fella getting TeaBagged.

yeah, me either.

Sorry, I wish I could help you past your confusion.

Again, it's the teabaggers that are confused for some unknown reason. That's what we're trying to figure out here.

Taxes are going to rise. I hope that helps.

Taxes are lowest in 60 years. Tea baggers think they are higher for some reason.
