The Amount of Income Tax You'd Willingly Pay
Posted by: IRS Questioner ()

What percentage of your CURRENT salary would you be willing to submit to our government willingly if they did not require you to pay taxes?

Is the number you'd willingly submit bigger or smaller than your current tax bill?

I would gladly pay all my income to the government. Obama knows better than anyone how the results of my labor should be distributed. GSA trips to Vegas, EBT used to have nails done, illegals flooding the borders and requiring food, medical and shelter.

0% until they clean up that clusterfuck.

I'm tired of the 'fair share' bullshit. I've worked there. It's a fucking mess. Fire half of the lazy asses who don't do shit and the assistants to the assistant director to the deputy assistant secretary to the assistant secretary and all of the fucking contractors supporting that shit doing what the feds are supposed to be doing themselves and quit spending money like it's water. Then if you still need money to do what you're supposed to be doing come back and we'll talk.

This is of course ridiculous. If the Government did not have the threat of violence behind it, no one would pay taxes. It's only by coercive means that they're able to collect the money to run the government, which is something that every lawmaker needs to seriously think about before they spend money like a drunken NFL player making it rain Benjamins in a strip club- every dollar you spend was taken from somebody under the implied threat of violence to someone's liberty or property.

Want to confuse a liberal ask them how much money it takes to run the government. They have no idea. All they know is class warfare. They see taxes as a means to punish and reward. Punish those that make money by rewarding those who dont and see success as something unfair.

I work with a super liberal. His belief is if someone is rich they did it by cheating, stealing or taking advantage of the poor.

If America was 100% White then I and my fellow right-wingers would be a lot less reluctant to oppose higher tax rates and the Left's wealth redistributing socialism in general. We high IQ Whites do not wish to be used as tax slaves to fund the survival of mud people.

Also, if the tax revenues were used to build cool shit like this:



Rather than to pay for the health care, education and food of sub-human mongoloids like this:



Then once again, we tax paying White right-wingers would be a lot less hesitant to support higher taxes.

And of course, if the tax revenues were being used to erect an advanced military juggernaut for the purpose of cleansing humanity of low IQ brown people; then White right-wingers like me would wildly support high tax rates.

Since that will never happen, I'll continue to vote for lower and lower taxes or move abroad (the only thing stopping me from doing so are all my friends and family here).

I am sick of all these liberal millionaires claiming that the tax rate is too low and that they would be willing to pay more -- well put more fucking money in your annual tax payment. You ARE allowed to overpay your taxes.

I recognize that we have to pay taxes for our government and services. What I don't like is the complexity of the tax code and the BS exemptions that are out there. A flat rate tax with only very basic exemptions would give an expectation of fairness to everyone.

Unfortunately, once you do pay your taxes people like Gerry Connolly and Obama seem to think it is THEIR money to spend on any wildly liberal cause that comes along. It remains OUR money entrusted to our elected representatives. It's time we get folks in our elected positions who understand what that means.

As for Mitt Romney, most of his "income" is capital gains and has already been heavily taxed once at the corporate level. For every person upset about his tax rate, consider how people would view getting their investments taxed at the ordinary income rate. Everyone wants Mitt's money, but by all accounts he was a savvy investor who made some perceptive choices. Rather than tax his investments to death, as Obama would like to do, I would rather know his secrets to success.

His secret...or rather the secrets of his tax adivisors is nothing more than knowing the rules and following them.

He didn't write the tax codes. Congress did that. Congress wrote the loopholes too. And Congress has always had the power to close those loopholes.

Why haven't they?

Amazing liberals cry a river over taking advantage of a legal tax break. Yet when GSA spends a million dollars on a Vegas trip drinking champagne and staying in luxury suites its a million dollars well spent.

thanks to the business tax rates by the US. One of the highest in the world. But no worries that $46.10 you have in savings is tax free loser. BTW welfare and food stamps are not taxable income so you are safe.

So that's why the Obama campaign is running out of money?

They're sending it all offshore preparing for the end of their rule?

I think 20% to Feds and 5% to the State is reasonable.
