So does this mean there is nothing fair about paying your own way in America? The battle cry of the rich. Oh, please don't expect me to pay my fair share, I'm so abused. So you and I end up having to pay more so he can pay no more than he thinks is fair, in other words, nothing. Another shining example of Conservative politics.

I'm looking forward to some facts to back it up or some facts to disprove my points. Something besides talking points would help. Check out my comment on your other list of talking points: http://www.just-say-why.com/blog/index.php/2009/11/23/harold-estes/comment-page-1/#comment-3249 I look forward to some real discussion.

Then he would be happy in Somalia where there is no government to foster the growth of business. Except that there are no successful businesses in Somalia or any country without a good and successful government to make business possible. Oh, but I did it all on my own so I shouldn't have to pay for the government. I'm beginning to doubt that he is serious. I guess chuck thinks he did it all on his own.

None of those evil “rich” must have ever used their hard work, education, skills and entrepreneurship to achieve anything because it was all given to “them” by a “broken predatory capitalist system” or stealing from the “poor and middle class”.. Then the justification continues on using morality, redefining regressive taxation as “progressive” and inaccurate numerical babble as a justification for the Obama “spread the wealth“ goal; but never mentions the multitude of government programs that such as the EIC “tax credit“ (that provides tax refunds to working people who paid little or no taxes)!!! What never gets described in these ‘Fair” tax rants (putting fair and tax together is an oxymoron) is applying exact income numbers to define the ‘Rich”, “Middle Class” and “Poor” so we know specifically who gets the first target painted on their forehead before the insatiable government moves down the food chain to extract more wealth from the private economy!!!! Oh, that’s right, Obama clearly stated that under his administration “No one making under $250,000 will see their taxes increase, not one dime” (humm, how is that “middle class” promise working out since it made it from January to an April appropriations bill before getting trashed with much more coming)!!!!! Under the original structure of our democratic republic Constitution, the government is responsible to insure equal and fair opportunity but not guarantee equal outcome; although a “hand up, not a hand out“ has always been our tradition for the temporarily disadvantaged)!!!!! However, if self-righteous fairness jealousy or guilt leaks out all over the floor one can always man-up and be the first one at the IRS window with your net worth donation check.. Chuck (again) Fair Tax

He'd sort the Republicans with the goats and watch them burn and suffer while the people defending the poor and downtrodden (aka Democrats) would go to heaven. Any Christian voting Republican is going to hell. For that matter, anyone voting Republican will be going to hell. It's not too late to repent. What would Jesus do?
