Translation: use your head to think as I use my head.
Again he is using the wrong head. TheMercenary again demonstrates what is called 'big dic' thinking - complete with profanity to justify his conclusions. Repeated posted are actions TheMercenary regards as logical solutions. Curiously, TheMercenary is typically of George Jr supporters; people with contempt for the American soldier; who associate Fox with News. Those inspired by that head routinely use adjectives associated with the source of their motivation and political agendas. First two quoted sentences are his complete thought. Everything he posted afterward is redundant. A chain of profanity posted like a teenager in heat. |

TheMercenary is now sober enough to carefully filter his posts. Oh well. For a while, we got to see who he really is and what he really thinks.

Again you show your ignorance how the system works.

I'd buy facetious if it were even close to factual. It ain't.

So you don't believe that our taxes pay for roads. In our state road monies come from three sources, SPLOST funds, State funds, Federal funds. All three come from taxes.

Ah, Mercy, you take me right back...[nostalgia] to my introduction to the cellar. Here's my second post evar, and as you can see, as from the map, *I* pay for *your* roads. You're welcome.[/nostalgia] To your questions: 1 -- Yes, ipbuprophen (but only now, after considerable yardwork this weekend. I was unimpaired at the time of my post to which you replied.) 2 -- I paid my fair share of taxes. 3 -- I will have to speculate, since I have no experience as an adult as "ain't paying it". I don't consider paying taxes a pain. The process is painful, but the concept is not. Our country runs on taxes. You and I could have a disagreement about what level of taxes is appropriate, or we could have a discussion about what those taxes should be spent on. But if you're asking me if I find taxes painful, the answer is no. 4 -- This question was difficult to unpack. I think you're asking (actually, I don't think you're asking anything, I think you're just ranting, with a little question mark thingy at the end) is do I agree that the middle class want to shift more of the tax burden to the "uber-rich"? I think most folks do want to pay less, even if someone else has to pay more. I stand by my original statement. You're going to have to post more facts, more substance if you want to play here. If you just want to complain, go to the Relationship section or something. Over here, facts carry weight, not whining. Bonus points for not including any tinfoil in your reply though. Maybe there's hope for you.

Seems to me that the best measure is the resultant tax rate. This would be your bottom line tax amount paid divided by your gross income. Turbotax said mine was about 7%
