Yeah not a democracy. We are a republic. Actually not even that, its more of an Oligarchy. Have you guys thought of pooling your own resources? Still tax but its your groups tax. Than it would go on things you wanted to get done. Just a thought. Probably a stupid one (only the bad stuff I think of comes to fruition and I execute effectively for some reason).
Anyway I am convincing a few of my friends to come with me up there. I has gots work to do.
Prices will not rise with the FairTax. When the income tax is removed, prices will drop due to competition. This has always happened in the past. Ask any economics student. Profits stay steady at 5 to 8 percent. That's the beauty of capitalism. The poor will pay no taxes, due to the prebate. MORE people will be
paying taxes because illegals and criminals will pay. 250 billion dollars will be eliminated from the collection overhead. That will help lower our prices
@101johngalt shes a socialist piece of shit...and I am so sick of hearing the word "'democracy"" come out of these debased ignorant uneducated brainwashed ,indoctrinated babyboomers mouths.The founders concidered democracy the worst form of Govt ..leading only to fascism,and look around .
The sooner thay all fade away the better.
Its obvious she is a fat ugly socialist loser with a chip on her shoulder....guaranteed she has never had a real job...just another no talent lazy parasite
Boy I am confused. Pro tax women says there is a budget crisis and the Governor is claiming we had a 70 million dollar surplus last year....interesting..
Because Joyce heads up an NGO that promotes public spending... that is why he would not face your questions. All the people at these forums, except for JBartlett, are PRO INCOME and SALES TAX. They hide this but that is their real goal. Thank you Ridley for helping us in exposing GSFTC... and them.
Not wanting to pay your fair share of taxes is what makes you a lazy and selfish deadbeat. These "libertarians" and "teabaggers" are ridiculous and shameful.
Ridley says, "I am a tax resister. I currently don't pay the federal tax."
This makes him and his ilk deadbeats. That makes him a selfish, and it makes him a criminal. Perhaps if he likes this type of society, he should move to Somalia. What a dink.
@Hroark7 The change is working out pretty well, thanks for asking. The rest of your comments are exactly what I am here to encourage -- they illustrate what kind of people think the way you do. Please stay very vocal. Thank you for your help. It is now obvious to anyone who'd care to read your words (and attempts to structure a complete sentence) will see exactly the kind of person you are.
@Coryscott5 ...no wonder you are so uneducated and a socialist piece of shit.Your Canadian.
Enjoy your coming Real estate collapse moron.with ratios at 1:9..
Your canuk health care is bankrupt with massive waiting lists for any serious medical problem as is reiterated all over the Canadian media.and economic forums.& your Debt /GDP ratios on capital pools for soc sec are completely unfunded and bankrupt
@Hroark7 You mean "you're", not "your". And you seen to know nothing about Canada. But that makes sense, with your dumbed down education system and media. And a redneck American telling a Canadian, whose country leads the G8 in recovery, that his system is bankrupt and unfunded is humorous and sad. You've become the world's laughing stock, you know.
"you are irrelevant
learn to spell moron.lol"
I'll just let that little quote of yours speak for itself! lol
@Hroark7 You actually got every single point wrong there -- quite a feat, even for a moron.
And congratulations on at least spelling "irrelevant" correctly this time. Second time's the charm. And you use the word "moron" an awful lot. Is that because it is what everyone has called you since childhood, and therefore you memorized it? I'm starting to think so.
But seriously, thank you for sharing. That is why I am here after all -- to get you to show everyone your true self. Keep typing.
@RidleyReport That's what is so hilarious with you guys..... waterboarding isn't torture, but paying your fucking taxes is. Go live in the Unabomber's shack -- I hear its empty.
@Hroark7 Describe a "real job". Is it being whatever the hell you are? lol.
Keep typing -- we are learning so much about the intellect of you and your ilk. Like how you cannot think up new thoughts and just repeat your posts, somehow hoping that eventually they'll be insightful (you may have to look that one up, being 3 syllables and all) if you regurgitate those talking points enough times.
And again, that "change" is working out pretty good, thank you very much for asking.
@juliaisafilmbuff123 If you have premise state it or continue with another bromide moron.
Socialism has destroyed America & whole world is watching.
The worlds best economists and hedge fund Managers from Jim Rogers,Rickards,Marc Faber,Schiff,Eric Sprott,Roubini ,Max Keiser have all said it is Socialism and contraction of capital pools through socialist regulation & bankrupt pyramidial socialist vote bribes that is the problem ,with the fiat fractional monetry system at the base.
@juliaisafilmbuff123 obviously you are another uneducated idiot &/or a socialist loser
Bromide,go look the word up and look in the mirror
Anyway,keep arguing your socialist tax increases.
The facts are capital is streaming out of America & all western Socialist debt holes at an incredible rate,that is why every socialist model only has Quant easing(printing for you retards) left
@Hroark7 I'd bet right now that I make at least four times what you do, uneducated hillbilly. How can any intelligent person call someone else that is willing to pay their fair share of taxes a parasite? You are projecting, and it is very transparent.
Keep talking pal.....this is why I am here. With every word you type, you inform another person of your backwards and hackneyed thinking. And you betray your level of intelligence. And brother -- it ain't pretty.
Insult, wild insulting guess, insulting question, rhetorical question that has nothing to do with the discussion, insulting wild guess, insult, hypocrisy, another rhetorical question signifying nothing, insult, insult, wild guess, laugh.
Really though, although you type "lol" -- it is we who are laughing. Please keep typing....it is why I am here. To expose you. Please continue.
@Coryscott5 and you're willingness to pay taxes that go towards bombs and bullets killing innocents abroad and victimless drug users at home makes you complicit in murder.
@ferrozm Ummmmm, no it doesn't, and no I don't. I'm not from your war-mongering country.
But it does not make you a murderer if you pay your taxes, deadbeat. Pay your fucking taxes, or never, ever step foot on a road or sidewalk that everyone else pays for when you chose not to participate. And don't call the police when you are robbed or a victim of crime. Just stay out of everyone else's way.
@Coryscott5 The Federal income tax (which is unconstitutional) do not pay for any roads or emergency services. They cover the debt that our gov't creates by buying it's worthless paper currency from the federal reserve (privately owned by international bankers), and ponzi schemes like social security. Local property, gasoline, and sales taxes are what pay for local services. The Constitution simply does not allow a progressive taxation of wages.
@pfarnsworth84 Ummmm, largely incorrect and irrelevant. Your analogy suggest that men who lives hundreds of years ago know how to run a modern country. Their guidelines are fine, but it is more complicated than that, and you know it. What these ancient slave owners wrote down was great, but wasn't meant as an ending point. Perhaps you need to study more, and maybe then you wouldn't feel such outrage.
Until then though, pay your fucking taxes, deadbeat. Or move to Somalia and see your Xanadu.
@Coryscott5 Spoken like a true socialist. The US Constitution is not a "guideline" is the founding document of our government and the supreme law of the land. You do not discard, pieces of it willy nilly. That's how you end up with statism. How come those states with the lowest tax burden have the most prosperity and healthy job markets, whereas a communist paradise like California has huge tax burdens, high unemployment rates, and most of the state is sucking the Gov't teat on welfare?
@Coryscott5 Ah yes, personal insults. I knew we'd get to it sooner or later. The act of a desperate man who can't intelligently answer a question. Have fun by yourself!
@pfarnsworth84 OK -- run away. Why ever read more than just talking points by conspiracy theorists, right? It is just so much easier to sit back and bitch that way! If you don't think the constitution was meant to be an evolving document, you are sadly mistaken. What the fuck do you think an amendment is?
@pfarnsworth84 You (ignorantly) said, "Spoken like a true socialist". And then you complain in the next post about how name-calling is desperate. Hmmmmm.....
@Coryscott5 Just gonna have to agree to disagree (although neither of us really know what the other's position is). I have better things to do with my time than screaming into the void.
@pfarnsworth84 I know your position -- you've explained it. If you don't agree with everything a democratically elected government does then you want to not pay taxes.
And to your earlier question about California......they elected a right wing former movie action star after recalling a democratically elected governor. That is one reason. Hey -- let's get Sharron Angle and Sarah Palin to run things and then blame liberals too for the mess that is left behind. Great formula, bad results.
@Coryscott5 I never said don't pay taxes. I think a flat tax would be more fair than a progressive rate. States don't need an income tax, NH has operated just fine without one. If you're going to have taxes, they have to be apportioned to the states. You have to have some taxes to operate gov't, but our gov't is too huge right now and spending too much money. To pay for that, American's tax burden is too high. You pay taxes when you work, eat, buy, sell, even when you die, you owe taxes.
@pfarnsworth84 You say "American's tax burden is too high". But what scale are you basing this on? It is at the lowest point in 30 years, and at 36%, is much lower than the 90% totals after WW2 or the 50-60 percent levels under guys like Nixon. The facts don't permit you to make statements like that and then talk about the "boot of government". That's crazy.
@Coryscott5 I have no love for conservatives or liberals. When the boot of government is on your throat, it concerns me little whether it's a right or left boot.
@Coryscott5 I would pay my taxes if your socialist agenda hadn't made it impossible for my previous employer to continue to give me a paycheck, just like millions others who have lost their jobs thanks to increasing gov't taxation and regulation. Unemployment nationwide has now hit 10.1% and underemployment is up to 16%
@Coryscott5 And every time the Military-Industrial complex decides to go off to war so that the federal reserve can print some more money, who do you think pays for that? the taxpayers.
@pfarnsworth84 Yes, when the country goes to war -- the taxpayers pay for it. Who the hell else would? Maybe don't vote for the warmonger next time. Vote for the pacifist who won't spend the country into a recession and deficit. Novel idea, no? Better than just whining and taking your ball home to brood.
@Coryscott5 What pacifist, Obama? Who's continuing to escalate the war in Afghanistan and increased our national debt more than all previous US presidents up to Reagan? I don't think so. I don't vote for war mongers, I vote for politicians who stay out of other countries' affairs. These people, sadly, never get elected. The last one who had a chance was Goldwater and that was in the 60's.
@pfarnsworth84 I did not mention Obama. The electing starts at the local level, with candidates that need to make it through primaries. But with dumb Americans saying pacifists are "socialists" or "hate America" or "won't keep us safe" -- they stand no chance.
@Coryscott5 I would pay my taxes if your socialist agenda hadn't made it impossible for my previous employer to continue to give me a paycheck, just like millions others who have lost their jobs thanks to the gov't. Unemployment nationwide has now hit 10.1% and underemployment is up to 16%
@Coryscott5 You obviously are mentally ill & a loser
People have made it clear that you are not welcome here,yet you continue to troll.This is a constitutionalist site & you are a uneducated socialist retard
Obviously you know nothing about economics & have zero money management skills
Its obvious you have low self Esteem issues & a mental disorder
Projecting with so much anger ,its obvious life has not worked out for you.You are menatally ill.
3 quick, unfounded insults to start, then a statement saying "go away" because you hate to hear any dissenting opinion. Two more unfounded insults, followed by two more. And two more.
Then a hypocritical claim suggesting I am "projecting with so much anger", another unfounded claim, and another insult (repeated for the third time this post alone). And then a hypocritical and unfounded claim about spelling ability.
Great interview Dave. There is no way Cathy would get into a discussion about the gun in the room. "That question isn't useful "(LMAO) , also her comment about democracy . Socialists hate democratic government. Trying to have an open debate with that kind of mindset is a waste of time .. they will never concede a point and if need be they will change the rules to fit their desires. Can you say socialist ? How about a "gun in the room" video for those unfamiliar with the concept ?
Hey Ridley, leave ambush journalism to the pros. You got owned on this video by these educators, made you look pretty stupid. I would take this one down.
“How much are you going to benefit from this tax?”
The name of this logical fallacy is: “Ad hominem circumstantial”
Ad hominem circumstantial points out that someone is in circumstances such that he is disposed to take a particular position. Ad hominem circumstantial constitutes an attack on the bias of a source. This is fallacious because a disposition to make a certain argument does not make the argument false.
God Americans are stupid - it is simply unbelievable how stupid you are.
Tax is what makes a society great - end of story. The period which built America - pre-1990's - when the American middle class was built was taxation of upto and over 70%. Since then your country has been destroyed as taxation has dropped through the floor - grow a BRAIN.
The most equitable, progressive societies on earth - which absolutely destroy America for living standards are all staunch advocates of TAX - so stupid !
@audas People want the things that come with living in a civilized society, but do not want to take the responsibility of paying for them. In what other modern nation would someone's house burn to the ground because he didn't pay a $75 fire subscription fee? In what other modern nation would someone lose everything due to illness and a lack of health insurance? We are a banana republic with nuclear weapons.
Thank you - sometimes someone comes along and says something which causes me stop and question my utter contempt for modern American intellect - the sparsity of this in no way ameliorates my loss of appreciation for what America once was.
America must not only fix the rot - which to me is nigh impossible - but also work hard to restore the respect of the rest of the globe - for it is totally gone.
The Teaparty is the apotheosis of feckless mediocrity.
@audas There are a lot of us in this country who are embarrassed by the vociferous few whose prattlings and chest-thumping makes us look like the neanderthal goons the rest of the world sees us as. It's just that we get shouted down by those neanderthal goons. Want proof? Watch replies to both of our comments here. I apologize in advance for the anger, the hate and the vitriol they are about to provoke. We are the most dangerous rogue nation on the planet, but we don't see it.
I come across this often - it is was the lack of fortitude which allowed this to happen in the first place, it is the lack of fortitude which allows it to continue.
The great achievements of the US - were not brought about through peaceful means - they were all achieved through a concerted effort for good.
The powers of greed and solipsism are ever present in the USA - the Tea Party is just the KKK reformed. It takes courage for justice to prevail - not pusillanimous foes.
@NHTPC I think it's hilarious that the FSP chose NH because of its low taxes, then once they're in NH they complain endlessly about how high property taxes and vehicle registration fees are. I have to ask why they didn't choose Wyoming or South Dakota.
@NHTPC - you'd like to see it ? Thats the spirit.
It would merely be a return to what MADE AMERICA powerful ! As mentioned it is vastly more common to pay this type of rate than the current corporate scam.
But lets be clear here - the rate we are talking about, on those it is target at would leave them with an annual income in the MILLIONS - would that be hard to live from NHTPC ? Or is it - you just don't want to pay taxes because your antisocial ?
Far be it, for me to tell you anything, but I like this as common ground, do you believe in liberty, or tyranny? That is an easier and more to the point question, to find common ground on, because, who in their right mind would say they want tyranny? Then you must show that taxes are a form of tyranny. Taken by the use of force.
As far as obeying the law, I always use,, hey, it was a law you could have slaves!! This would put them on the spot..so if there is a law for slavery,you'd have a slave?
Next time point out that gay marriage isn't even a democratic subject in a free society and issues of liberty do not depend on how much money the state "saves".
Pretty disgusting overall. She doesn't like you getting a word in edgewise, either...I'll bet she won't like it when people really DO get more involved!
Hah, she's a propagandist! It's not meaningful for her to think about how people will be punished for violating the law she is promoting? Now that's a dictator in the making!
I helped Mascoma Valley Regional High School lose its accreditation for 99-2000 year. MVRHS sucked then, and now they have football. The school could barely afford baseball back in 98.
The idiots in my class of 98 bought nice lettering for the MVRHS school as a "class gift" I never took part in one of their BS fund raisers and glad I didnt cause my hard work going to that dump would of really sucked.
Hey guys,Your life depends on a few things. Water, shelter, and, FOOD. .. Get FREE food.. Go to ( aplus.mysundanceglobal com ), Watch the video and sign up. This food has a 15 yr. shelf life. None GM. The food is great too.
Always "increasing revenues", never "abolish/cut/repeal".
"What does it matter what I think should happen to you?"
Because you favor taxation. If you favor taxation, rather than voluntary payment for services, then you are specifically and deliberately favoring putting a gun to your neighbor's head and taking their property.
this lady needs a serious education in history, she is very misinformed and also seems to believe that it's okay to steal from people for the good of society...
Mr. Educrat is a government worker, which means in his mind, he's better than everyone else. Take notes Ridley, he's looking down at you while he's talking to you with the indignant tone of a king who is perplexed at why his subjects are questioning his god-ordained logic.

@pfarnsworth84 OK -- run away. Why ever read more than just talking points by conspiracy theorists, right? It is just so much easier to sit back and bitch that way! If you don't think the constitution was meant to be an evolving document, you are sadly mistaken. What the fuck do you think an amendment is?

@Coryscott5 Just gonna have to agree to disagree (although neither of us really know what the other's position is). I have better things to do with my time than screaming into the void.
pfarnsworth84 1 year ago
@pfarnsworth84 I know your position -- you've explained it. If you don't agree with everything a democratically elected government does then you want to not pay taxes.
And to your earlier question about California......they elected a right wing former movie action star after recalling a democratically elected governor. That is one reason. Hey -- let's get Sharron Angle and Sarah Palin to run things and then blame liberals too for the mess that is left behind. Great formula, bad results.
Coryscott5 1 year ago
@Coryscott5 I never said don't pay taxes. I think a flat tax would be more fair than a progressive rate. States don't need an income tax, NH has operated just fine without one. If you're going to have taxes, they have to be apportioned to the states. You have to have some taxes to operate gov't, but our gov't is too huge right now and spending too much money. To pay for that, American's tax burden is too high. You pay taxes when you work, eat, buy, sell, even when you die, you owe taxes.
pfarnsworth84 1 year ago
@pfarnsworth84 You say "American's tax burden is too high". But what scale are you basing this on? It is at the lowest point in 30 years, and at 36%, is much lower than the 90% totals after WW2 or the 50-60 percent levels under guys like Nixon. The facts don't permit you to make statements like that and then talk about the "boot of government". That's crazy.

@Coryscott5 And every time the Military-Industrial complex decides to go off to war so that the federal reserve can print some more money, who do you think pays for that? the taxpayers.
pfarnsworth84 1 year ago
@pfarnsworth84 Yes, when the country goes to war -- the taxpayers pay for it. Who the hell else would? Maybe don't vote for the warmonger next time. Vote for the pacifist who won't spend the country into a recession and deficit. Novel idea, no? Better than just whining and taking your ball home to brood.
Pay your fucking taxes, deadbeat.

@Coryscott5 What pacifist, Obama? Who's continuing to escalate the war in Afghanistan and increased our national debt more than all previous US presidents up to Reagan? I don't think so. I don't vote for war mongers, I vote for politicians who stay out of other countries' affairs. These people, sadly, never get elected. The last one who had a chance was Goldwater and that was in the 60's.
pfarnsworth84 1 year ago
@pfarnsworth84 I did not mention Obama. The electing starts at the local level, with candidates that need to make it through primaries. But with dumb Americans saying pacifists are "socialists" or "hate America" or "won't keep us safe" -- they stand no chance.

“How much are you going to benefit from this tax?”
The name of this logical fallacy is: “Ad hominem circumstantial”
Ad hominem circumstantial points out that someone is in circumstances such that he is disposed to take a particular position. Ad hominem circumstantial constitutes an attack on the bias of a source. This is fallacious because a disposition to make a certain argument does not make the argument false.

God Americans are stupid - it is simply unbelievable how stupid you are.
Tax is what makes a society great - end of story. The period which built America - pre-1990's - when the American middle class was built was taxation of upto and over 70%. Since then your country has been destroyed as taxation has dropped through the floor - grow a BRAIN.
The most equitable, progressive societies on earth - which absolutely destroy America for living standards are all staunch advocates of TAX - so stupid !

I come across this often - it is was the lack of fortitude which allowed this to happen in the first place, it is the lack of fortitude which allows it to continue.
The great achievements of the US - were not brought about through peaceful means - they were all achieved through a concerted effort for good.
The powers of greed and solipsism are ever present in the USA - the Tea Party is just the KKK reformed. It takes courage for justice to prevail - not pusillanimous foes.

@NHTPC - you'd like to see it ? Thats the spirit.
It would merely be a return to what MADE AMERICA powerful ! As mentioned it is vastly more common to pay this type of rate than the current corporate scam.
But lets be clear here - the rate we are talking about, on those it is target at would leave them with an annual income in the MILLIONS - would that be hard to live from NHTPC ? Or is it - you just don't want to pay taxes because your antisocial ?
Maybe you should think before responding.

Far be it, for me to tell you anything, but I like this as common ground, do you believe in liberty, or tyranny? That is an easier and more to the point question, to find common ground on, because, who in their right mind would say they want tyranny? Then you must show that taxes are a form of tyranny. Taken by the use of force.
As far as obeying the law, I always use,, hey, it was a law you could have slaves!! This would put them on the spot..so if there is a law for slavery,you'd have a slave?

Always "increasing revenues", never "abolish/cut/repeal".
"What does it matter what I think should happen to you?"
Because you favor taxation. If you favor taxation, rather than voluntary payment for services, then you are specifically and deliberately favoring putting a gun to your neighbor's head and taking their property.
