Re: 47% Will Pay No Federal Income Tax
I don't get what's even being argued anymore here. Can't we all agree that the 47% represent the lowest 47% income earners and that Bush's AND Obama's tax cuts account for a good part of that 47% not owing? From a macro standpoint Firstdown, you shouldn't care. People not paying taxes is money back in their pockets and that's proper conservative tax policy. Now whether it is fair to the other 53% is a whole other argument. That's a discussion of the progressive tax versus a flat tax. And no one here has made a case for either.

Re: 47% Will Pay No Federal Income Tax
I hung out with a troupe of smoking hot professional Spanish flamenco dancers last night. Seriously, this really happened. I just happened to be sitting and having a beer in this empty bar when this crazy group of hotties rolled in speaking loud drunken Spanish and dancing like pros (which they turned out to be). I said whatsup and they asked if I knew any good clubs and I said that I did and I rolled out with them, your boy djnemo65 and 8 hotties (and this Saudi Arabian guy who was tagging along who turned out to be mad cool too). Everyone in this club kept asking, those are your girls? Damn son, represent. Those girls can really dance. And they were all just the nicest, coolest people you can imagine. From various parts of Spain, they were contracted by a Japanese entertainment company to do flamenco shows in Osaka, so that's why they are over here. Great, great night. When I staggered out of the club the sun was already blasting. Definitely gonna try and hang out with them as many more times as I can.
Anyway, I figured here was as good a place as any to tell you guys about this. |

Re: 47% Will Pay No Federal Income Tax
That sounds pretty bad-ass. I miss Japan/ The Orient.
I have a similar story with a group of Swedish hotties back in the day.

Re: 47% Will Pay No Federal Income Tax
F&ck Hillary. Someone needs to ask her about the family foundation she set up to avoid paying taxes. Its the same one she had to all of a sudden claim when she decided to run for president.

Re: 47% Will Pay No Federal Income Tax
I'd have to dig around for the story but it was not set up for charity but more for a reason to avoid paying taxes. I have no problem with someone giving money to charity to have a tax write off but hiding the money in a foundation is more of a way to sheild money from paying taxes. The small % that is required to donate is chump change compared to the tax rate. I really don't really care what she does with her money but don't say the rich are not paying enough taxes when your hiding money from the IRS.
