The way I view that is, they are stealing from me, and giving it to them. They should at least have to mow our lawns and wash our cars for free, every week!

Maximum 25 % tax rate to cover Federal taxes, Social Security, and Medicare. Create 5% Flat State Tax. We are already overtaxed with Sales and Property Taxes. It seems that the government is taking 50% of our income. Money spent trickles down to others and is taxed again and again. They need to adopt a 10% Flat Income Tax for everyone.

In 1913 the US Government ratified this amendment. Today only changes to the tax code are permitted unless there was a repeal of the 16th amendment. Politicians of either party would never repeal it becuase too much revenue is brought in with the 16th. We vote in our choices each election cycle so our only recourse is to contact our congress persons or senators. Some Tea Party candidates are in favor of repealing the 16th amendment in favor of a fair or flat tax. Arianna, Unfortunately it’s called the 16th Amendment to the Constitution.

A job at McDonald's will at least teach responsibility, customer service, how to manage money, etc. From there, you can move up and learn more skills that can be transferred to another job. At least TRY to be a productive human being and not a parasite! It's called being raised right with responsibility. The entitlement system was supposed to be a safety net, NOT a catch all for lazy people. I for one am sick of supporting this type of scum.

Anyone receiving assistance from any government agency ,should be expected to pass a RANDOM drug test. It cant be scheduled because there are too many ways to study for those tests. Further more i dont think that a 10% jump is fair when the other brackets dont jump at the same rate make each bracket jump 5% keep it simple . i couldnt agree more .

It's funny how those people in congress who complain about how much someone makes in the private sector never offer to take a pay cut " for the good of the American people" who happen to be the ones paying their salary. Now that's what I would call "eating your peas" I agree.
