New GOP Meme - No Taxes On The Rich Or Businesses

Since Governor Brownback signed the "no business tax law" it is obvious that that tax policy is the way Romney and the GOP will want to go as they cut off all domestic programs. They believe the churches will fill the gap for all of it. It is a faith based government.

You have to follow their logic or lack there of. In their world workers are supposed to pay for the privilege of the "job creators" taking their time to create a job so you can have a pay check. Remember health care and a job is a privilege and not a right. What they believe is that you should be thrilled to be able to get a measley pay check for your efforts. It is up to you as a worker to provide the roads and infrastructure to they can create a job for you. It is not their duty to help with the roads or schools. It is up to you to pay for them. It is up to you to educate your children so they will be ready for their jobs. That is why the want to be free of all taxes. It is their ENTITLEMENT.

All you have to do is sit back and free associate all the GOP rhetoric and it will become obvious about exactly what the GOP, Romney, the billionaires and the US Chamber of Commerce are telling you as a worker. Be grateful for the $7 an hour job because there are people in many countries who will do that same job for $7 a day or a week or even a month.

If you are a woman you have to accept that you are only 75% of a man. You get sick too much and are off too much raising your kids. And if you are a young woman it is your responsibility to bear as many children as you can for the economy. That is why birth control should not be available. After all that's the way it is in most of the global economy.

As bad as the GOP is now, they are just getting started with their madness. There is a lot more secret stuff being planned if they get the power.

Think of all the jobs they could create as job creators if they were collecting tax revenues instead of the government.

.. that the rich create all the jobs and look at how well they are doing in the midst of the LOWEST TAX RATES IN DECADES.

People that fall for this bullshit are beyond stupid.

11. I don't have a problem with business not paying taxes, as long as they don't use any public services

The first service they are NOT allowed to use is the military/police presence necessary to protect them from Mexican drug lords, Somalian pirates, Chinese vulture capitalists, American meth heads, violent protestors, random crazies with rifles, or anybody else.

The next thing they are NOT allowed to use is the world's resource base - no minerals, no energy, no communications, no benefits from anything paid for with taxes.

The next thing they are NOT allowed to use is the United States legal system. No cops, no lawyers, no trials for them. The law only supports taxpayers, even if they pay a penny a year.

The next thing they are NOT allowed to use is the collective body of knowledge built up by civil societies and science over the last couple hundred years.

Under those conditions, sure, I'll let them off of paying taxes.
