The Stupidity from Ocasio-Cortez

Agreed. Like I said, I'm not against taxes per se. I feel like if a community, whether it be at the city level or state level, vote for taxation and have a say where those taxes are spent then more power to them.

Fuck federal taxes though.

I am for lower fed involvement in pretty much everything, but I think there are things fed govt is needed for. National defense being pretty much number 1 and most easily identified reason. Borders, immigration, vet admin, stuff like that also make sense from a national perspective... to me anyway. I'm sure there are more.

I was looking at those a bit back. They look really nice. How's the kick on it? If I'm being honest, the only pistols that size that I've used personally are 9mm and .22.

Haven't fired it yet. I'm imagining it kicking less than my 1911 though, which, to me, isn't really that bad.

But federal taxes are where the states get most of their money from (I'm guessing.. maybe not in states like New York who rape their constituents with income tax and sales tax and property tax and gas tax and inheritance tax and payroll tax and etc...) and then the states do with that money what they have budgeted it for.

Heck.. now that I've named all the taxes I can think of.. the states probably don't get the lion share of their revenue from federal taxes... but they do get a big amount.

But that federal tax goes into paying for everything used by the state... plus everything used by the nation like defense, safety net programs, debt payments, etc...

Personally.. there should be federal income taxes and not state income taxes.

Oh, I'm going to be firing it a lot soon.

And I get that might be taken wrong. I'm not planning to break a bunch of laws, I mean at the range.

Read the actual proposal. There is a link in my sig.

lolololololololololol you're such a cheerleader for extreme retardedness, like some mall girl fawning over a boy band.

This might even better than your empty virtue signaling "Resist white supremacy." sig.

Right, not paying taxes when you can and should is criminal. Enjoying the benefits of this country while not contributing is still socialism in that other people are paying for it. If he is below the taxable income bracket, fine. If he's disabled, sorry to hear it but ok. If he just does not want to work, enjoy the food stamps. But if he is able and does not thats criminal.

He's enjoying the benefit of your taxes without contributing.

That's what socialism is all about -- living on someone else's dime. Why would you have a problem with that when you love socialism and think it's awesome?

In other news, why should I give the government an interest free loan every year (which I get back in the form of a tax return because they take more out of my paycheck than they should) to invest into shit for their benefit, but if I take an actual risk and invest my money into something and it pays off, I still have to pay the government their cut?

Resist government supremacy.

This makes no sense, macgyver. Go to the private? Is that like going to the bathroom? What the hell are you talking about with this post?

He's saying private sector > public sector in broken English and that Canada rapes people on taxes almost as hard as time4fun rapes PK's flaccid asshole with her industrial sized dildos.
