Dirtyboy User ID: 58420558 United States 05/24/2014 08:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Both parties at all levels have indulged and embraced deficit spending borrowing from the future believing as the population increases revenue will increase. Now that there is a glut in the workers available the revenue doesn't keep pace with spending. At the federal level still money flows out of the country to support regimes that help support corporate investments. The drug war failed at all levels which further erodes revenue as much money that could be used to economic advantage disappears into the pockets of foreigners not concerned with the welfare of the US. The infrastructure has been allowed to deteriorate meaning more critical spending when revenue needed to fund such projects has been disappearing. There are lots of pension abuses at the level of state, counties and cities. Many politicians got a lot of workers to opt out of social security to support lucrative pensions not supported by pension funds but from current budgets. The solution has been either to borrow money to hide the fact a government is outspending itself or to come up with creative hidden taxes most don't know they are paying. We, the consumer and workers are taxed beyond belief. What we really don't see is that the consumer pays all the taxes businesses have to pay. Most of us only see a sales tax and income tax. Everything is taxed. Dirtyboy Think beyond impossible. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 40778334 United States 05/24/2014 08:18 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The county I live in raises taxes on anything they can think of, year after years we hear budget shortfalls. So instead of trying to cut back, limit the hiring of new county employees, cut down on the waste of government vehicles. Stopping all theft of overtime, in most cases to increase their pensions by up to 100%. Retire from one county position and start working at a new department within the county, thus receiving a second county pension. Why, the county stated (last year) that 77% of income just covers past and present county employees. Now a business would be bankrupt in a year if this were the case. What should be done, raise all government employee retirement ages to 62, this is the same age that one can start receiving SS. And just like SS, if they wait to start drawing, then increase it 3% a year. This retiring in your 40's needs to be stopped, period. Second, their pension will be bases on a current work week wages, no more OT will be allowed when calculating the pension. Hell if they don't like it, then give them all the same 401K. Stop all government vehicles from going home with any government employee, excluding police. Cut the state vehicle fleet by 30%, why should they be allowed to drive on the taxpayers dime. Give them the option of paying 10% of gross wages for medical, or this so called government insurance. I don't care if they make 30k a year or 200k a year, a flat 10%. Next any employee wages or salary that exceeds 100k a year will have wages frozen, period. Next any government employee that owes back taxes, will be given the option of paying back all back taxes within 60 days, or you will lose your job. Speaking of this, any employee caught stealing will be terminated and will forfeit all pension either current or future. Remove all government credit cards for all government employees. If they need one, they will sign out for it and they will return it once the transaction has been completed (24 hours max), along the card the receipt or receipts will also be turned in at that time. That employee will be given a copy of the receipt(s) with the initials of the individual that used the card as well as the one that accepted the returned card. This way everyone is accountable. Now if frivolous charges are made on the government card, that employee will be terminated and forfeit their pension. So much can be done to lower the tax rates, but why should they, well since it will have a direct effect on them, why would they stop the money train that feeds them as well. Every morning I see a regular car parked in a shopping center long before any of the business open. Never really thought about it, but stopping in at the grocery store I drove by that car, it has a state license plate. So whomever drives it during the week, parks their own car and takes the state car. Seems to me they are trying to cover this, how the hell is this even possible. Makes one wonder how many other cases like this takes place within the state. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 58423088 United States 05/24/2014 09:54 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The bite in taxes is taking its toll and the socialists cannot get through their think head that the higher you raise tax rates, the lower the revenue you will collect. They refuse to look at reality and keep trying to squeeze blood from a stone. They are setting the stage for the worst economic decline ahead since the Great Depression. This time it is government that is the culprit – not corporations. Quoting: No Dhimmi Personal income tax collections simply plunged for 2013 from a year earlier in 27 of 32 States reporting so far. That is the majority of the 43 states that levy income taxes to begin with. The collapse is ranging between 20% to as much as 50%. [link to armstrongeconomics.com] Here's the thing you have to understand No Dhimmi, tax rates aren't about "tax revenue." Tax rates are about getting political campaign donors to contribute in an effort to enacting a loophole in the tax law that gives them a pass from having to pay the tax. They pass some big-ass tax increase. Corps see it coming and get their tax lawyers to draft an amendment to the law that excludes them from having to pay it. They send their tax lawyer to the lobbyist with a sizable campaign contribution from a third party. Voila, magic. Everybody wins. Well, everybody except THE PEOPLE WHO GET STUCK PAYING THE BURDEN. |
