Simple fix. Make the rich pay their taxes instead of giving them infinite loopholes and workarounds.

If the government actually collected the same tax percent form the politicians that they do from the working class...we wouldn't be in this situation.

There is a problem when a single mom pays in 15k, and a career politician makes millions a year and pays zero in.

So, do you think the US government is not spending TOO MUCH MONEY?

Seriously?

Do you agree that Obama should keep all that unnecessary spending?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 48450846


I do agree that there is too much money being spent on unnecessary things (such as TSA and DHS over reach). However if they would force EVERYONE to pay the taxes they force on the working class, they could afford to spend the money on these bullshit programs.

Total revenue of the US federal government in fiscal year 2013: $2.902 trillion

So, the federal government has 2.9 trillion dollars to spend, and it STILL needs to spend MORE than that??

WHAT THE FUCK??

Why the hell the federal government needs to spend more than 2.9 trillion dollars per year?

2.9 trillion dollars is a HUGE MOUNTAIN OF MONEY


Don't raise the debt ceiling, and cut spendings to "just" 2.9 trillion a year

THAT is the real FIX.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 48450846


Not to mention that spending 1 trillion a year being unprecedented which means - has never happened before in the History of America until Odummer showed up.
