The dimorats would try to steal 390 of his 430 million dollar contract and give it to illegal immigrants.

Huffing duster again, huh?

[Screw_Michigan]

Every dimorat running is saying that people who make 10 million a year should pay 90% in taxes.

That's not how marginal tax rates work you monumental dipshit.

[Screw_Michigan]

I hope Trout incorporates in Nevada so he doesn't have to pay state tax in California which will cost him almost 57 million dollars of his contract extension.

Yeah, I'm sure he'll miss the money.

[Joe in PB]

You wouldn't?

[Screw_Michigan]

Are you voluntarily giving 90% of your gross income up for taxes? If not, why?

#1, that's not how marginal tax rates work you monumental dipshit.

#2, pay me Mike Trout money and I'll gladly sign up for the 90% marginal tax rate.

[Smackie Chan]

pay me Mike Trout money

Would you still commute from the Heights?

I may not live here full time but you know DAMN WELL I'd have the best pad in Columbia Heights.

How about we have a 90% top marginal tax rate until we pay the deficit off? You do recall that's why we had that 90% tax right back in the 50s? We were paying off war bonds.

Overall a top marginal rate afterwards that would be sane would probably be about 50%. That's if we don't want to keep abusing the shit out of deficit spending.

Also every single dollar earned, as well as capital gains should be taxed for Social Security and Medicare.

How about we get spending under control and stop thinking we need to take more of the citizens money. And you want capital gains to be taxed for SS and Medicare? Go ahead and start sending in an extra $5k a year to the IRS first. Then we can talk about you forcing this on the rest of us.


I love how liberals talk about how there should be more taxes. Yet as soon as their deductions were limited in the recent tax changes, they are all up in arms and whining and bitching. You got exactly what you wanted. Oh wait, you wanted others to pay increased taxes, not yourself, eh?

You would do this only if raising the marginal rate would actually raise the effective rate (ie tax revenue collected), which it would not.

As Lefty said, step one should be cut spending. Period.

Get with the Yang Gang.

That $1000 is probably sounding pretty good right about now.

Cut the Military too 300bil and sell 50% of their bases. Problem solved.

Please tell me someone didn't roll out this tired bit of retardation again?

Yes, the top rate was 90%. They paid 90% of their income... AFTER DEDUCTING EVERY PENNY THEY SPENT ON ANYTHING.

So, people with higher incomes had to save a receipt and log a pack of gum, and they were strongly discouraged from accruing any personal savings.

Yeah, that was a great system alright.

[Dinsdale]

And when somebody as inept as Greenland decides to invade us (and kick our asses), I'm sure your peace offering will be to suck their cocks?

Go fuck yourself, midget. You're so goddamned clueless.

When you're dumber than Queerland, it's time to eject.

First, Greenland doesn't have a true military, because they're kinda-sorta part of another country.

Let's take canada, keeping in mind they have more territory to "defend" than the USA. If we went with Queerland's idea, we'd only be spending 15 times the amount on military that canada does.

Why don't you start giving them 50% of your current income and see how that feels and you might not be so fucking quick to give others money away ??
