We're well on the way to that 3rd-world thing. It is the income taxes that are taking our country apart - they discourage industry, are at the bottom of the trend to ship jobs overseas and import immigrant workers to the US, thus depriving citizens of the jobs that are here. If we do not repeal the income tax, we are toast, and will acquire so much debt that we will never be able to pay it off, and spend all our tax money simply paying the interest on it. Soon the interest on the national debt will be the size of defense spending, and then it will surpass it. If we get rid of the income tax now, we have a chance. If we don't, we're doomed to go bankrupt. |

Per Billy:
>Funny thing, Germany has high wages, and strong unions, and they don't >ship their jobs overseas. Why can't our politicians do that, huh? "The best government that money can buy...". Also, there's the educational level of the general populace. Their head of state is a physicist. I have a hard time imagining a physicist getting elected in the USA. In fact, the guys who run our show apparently think the likes of Sarah Palin is appealing to a significant portion of our populace. In that context, there's really no hope: politicians can't be blamed. They just want to get elected - and if they don't pander to the ignorance of the populace, they won't get elected and the guy next to them who does will... Even funnier: half my family are born-and-raised Germans living in Germany. They enjoy coming to the USA to visit, but it's kind of like a third-world country to them: they can buy cheap goods, the customs of the natives are interesting.... but the infrastructure is falling apart, nobody seems to get any significant amount of vacation (they all get 6-8 weeks minimum), health care seems iffy. In short, it's no place they would want to spend *too* much time in. Yeah... the USA has plenty of Germans who came here, became naturalized, and love the place.... but my German relatives' view suggests that some of those "European Socialist States" that those on the far-right go on about might not be quite as bad as they think. Why don't I go and live in Germany? Simple: too many Germans. -- Pete Cresswell |

With US businesses paying the highest income tax rate on the planet, they cannot manufacture here and compete with the rest of the world that not only has lower wages, but also lower corporate income taxes. Take the tax rates to zero - abolish all income taxes - and we can use the free trade agreements to beat the rest of the overcompeting world to death. Eventually, with zero income taxes, virtually ALL manufacturing would be occuring within the USA. This would be the new, best world tax shelter. There's other stuff to tax rather than income, see www.fairtax.org. We could have a 3% unemployment rate within 2 years after passage of the Fair Tax, and put to work not only every American citizens that wants a GOOD manufacturing job, but every immigrant that wants to come and help power our industry. We could increase the population of the USA by 50%, and the resultant taxes on the newly-rich would eventually balance the budget. Its truly the economic silver bullet for this sick economy. |

If we were all put to work, and were paid more, we could >buy more products and make corporations rich. Win/Win. Yep, and that could happen if we took the income tax rates to zero, since manufacturing here would be profitable again. OBTW, all those things about corporations not paying taxes are lies. Whenever they don't pay any taxes to the US Gov't, they instead pay those taxes to the army of lawyers and accountants that they use to do everything exactly right all year in order to pay the absolute lowest amount of tax to the US Gov't that they legally can. In lots of cases, it turns out to be nearly as much as the tax itself. Why tax corporations? Corporations don't pay taxes, they just get the money by lowering their dividends to stockholders, paying their employees less, or raising their prices to their customers. The CORPORATION DOES NOT PAY ANY TAXES, EVER - it is those people I just mentioined - customers, employees, and stockholders - that pay the taxes. So your whole several paragraphs whining about corporations paying taxes are a lie anyway - NO CORPORATION HAS EVER PAID ANY TAXES - just their employees, customers, and stockholders pay those taxes. Taxing corporations is like taxing your tools - tax your hammer, and your hammer is less valuable to you, and you live less well because your hammer is costing you money. Its like that with taxing corporations - it only hurts US! |

Well, we once had a nuclear engineer as a President. Didn't do us much good, did it? I mean one of the worst economic situations in memory - Jimmy Carter. |
