What's wrong with it? How stupid are you?

Redistributing income is theft, that is what is wrong with it.

Of course, taxes are supposed to finance the government but our federal government has gotten so massive that there are entire bureaus that can and should be eliminated completely.

Social Security and Medicare could easily be fixed if they simply put the 7% tax and matching employer contribution on all earned income. They might even be able to lower it to 5% and still have enough money to fund it and make up the deficit in a few years.

Also, part of the reason why there is a deficit is because the money has gone into the general fund and Congress has used it for all their nonsense.

A panel of frugal housewives who really know how budget and how to eliminate costs, could easily go through the government's budget and decide what is necessary and what is not. Congress is not willing to do it. The President is certainly not willing to do it.

Of course the health care bill is not about health care and it will definitely hit those who work hard in the pocketbook.
