| We are sadly, leaning toward socialism. Which would damage our economy and our place as the global power. |

| EBT causes major problems for me. I earn my money and you take it away and give it to someone else. |

| You have to pay taxes like every other American, welfare isn't something usually complained about by Republicans. Probably because most of them are on it. |

| That's quite a wide fluctuation, and I was joking. I was referring to the republican party as trailer trash. |

| That's true, the greedy are generally on the right. The 1% wants to get taxed less than the middle class, which is completely ridiculous. |

| Why on earth should someone who gets paid $60,000 a year pay the same amount of taxes as someone who gets paid $60,000,000? There's no logic in that at all. |

aaaaand ctrl + c epicly fails once again
@Jayy
Because its stupid
Lets say a middle class person and a high class person turn a sink on for an hour
The middle class person pays 10 dollars but the high class person pays 15
Thats illogical, because the fact is that the same exact amount of water came out of both sinks, and cost the same |
