Taxman American citizens bear an unfair share of the tax burden while American corporations are given substantial tax writeoffs to release them from their financial burden. The theory is when major corporations pay less taxes they will have more to reinvest in their company and so they can provide American workers with more job opportunities but in many cases they take the money and relocate their production plants to foreign nations. In some cases they relocate their headquarters to foreign countries for the benefits of a tax haven. Is this fair to the average citizen. Of course not, it is just one more scheme dreamed up by government and corporation to keep the working man in his place and to release businesses from paying their fair tax burden. The bottom line is as American corporations find ways to pay less taxes the American citizens are called upon to take up the slack and pay more taxes to the Taxman.

makes me sick...I earned that money...like all working stiffs...I have kids to feed and clothe...and the government is lending out help to others, going into more debt...sore subject for me...and I would do something about it if I were the president but I'm not, so what's to do? I hate taxes! None of us should have to pay the government just because we have a job. It's like we have to pay the government to allow us to work for a living. |

I can't even stand to look at the 'gross pay' line on my paycheck knowing what the net pay line says. I can relate! -Venus |

 (big hugggsssssss) Oh, the many evils of capitalism, I just wish hat whole system would expunge and only then are we ever truly free from the murdering of the working man! (sad sigh) And then you have those saying do you want anarchy, yet this is far more like anarchy to me! (sad sigh) My heart goes out to all the true dedicators, the workers, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet James, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
