And You Wanna “Tax The Rich”?

I have a better idea. How about we tax the poor? 49.5% of them now pay no federal income tax. How is that fair? Why don’t they pay their fair share instead of freeloading off the rest of us and demanding that we pay more, so we can meet their definition of fair share? I’m sick of giving these parasites a free lunch everyday, let ‘em pay for their own.

It is not 50.5% of the wage earners in this country’s responsibility to pay for someone else’s free ride in life. Screw them. Pay your fair share, you worthless bottom-feeding parasites. Yeah, you heard me right, time for you to pony up and pay your fair share. My money isn’t yours, now get lost.

Another eye-popping number was the percentage of Americans who don’t pay income taxes, which now accounts for nearly half of the U.S. population. Meanwhile, most of that population receives generous federal benefits.

“One of the most worrying trends in the Index is the coinciding growth in the non-taxpaying public,” wrote Heritage authors Bill Beach and Patrick Tyrrell. “The percentage of people who do not pay federal income taxes, and who are not claimed as dependents by someone who does pay them, jumped from 14.8 percent in 1984 to 49.5 percent in 2009.”…

The rapid growth of Americans who don’t pay income taxes is particularly alarming for the fate of the American form of government, Beach and Tyrrell warned. Coupled with higher spending on government programs, it is already proving to be a major fiscal challenge.

“This trend should concern everyone who supports America’s republican form of government,” Beach and Tyrrell wrote. “If the citizens’ representatives are elected by an increasing percentage of voters who pay no income tax, how long will it be before these representatives respond more to demands for yet more entitlements and subsidies from non-payers than to the pleas of taxpayers to exercise greater spending prudence?”

Like I said. You wanna tax the rich? Screw you.
