Charon is such a hack

Foodstamps became a huge program specifically because JPMorgan was pushing it, because it is conducting that program and is using it to gamble.

However all government programs must be cut, government spending needs to come down by 99.9% and income/payroll/corporate taxes need to go to where they belong. 0.

What a false high horse of nonsense she`s sitting on, The first people to tell you that you can get trapped on the so called " Welfare State " { It`s always been called that false term by people with nasty ideologies, Who would never qualify for it } Are the people on it, To make claims that anybody would have only the ambition to exist on minimal state help is crap and an insult, I think we know where the corrosive and corrupt element in society is, And it isn`t down the labour exchange

I find it interesting that someone as far to the left can have a respectful conversation. With someone as far to the right as Mona Charen.

The way he says it was like Bill Hicks impersonating a restless audience member : "Blowjob! Blowjob! Blowjob!"

blah blah blah blah blah blah except for Hitchens they all sound the same.

It doesn't matter what kind of tax they give us, they will find a way to game the system into their advantage. Eventually they will decide to tax one item at a higher rate than another & before you know it it's 70% for gas like in England. The best thing to do is to remove all federal taxes completely & assign them a flat percentage paid by each state per quarter. Also, with state taxes we'd get taxed twice on everything we buy.

@Fuctementality, You are factually incorrect. 180 degrees off. That is why I suggested you Google it. Please do so.

[Armistance]

the more things change...

[BeardedCIam]

The Fair Tax, is what we need! Google: The Fair Tax.

[Fuctmentality]

@BeardedCIam Yeah, a regressive tax that would decrease consumption & cost jobs is wonderful idea.

[arcticmint]

@DeRocco21 Hitchens had said he does not want to live forever.

[quidproquo2004]

@DeRocco21 Wow, you're just a nasty person.

[DeRocco21]
