Plain enough?
Hey I agree as well, that would be the best way to keep this current system running. IMO The system needs to change though.
Why should anyone want to pay more taxes that are used to pay for war, ethanol subsidies, NCLB, and a slew of other worthless government programs.
It's not that government is bad. Government is people.
Its not that big business is bad. Big business is people.
It's just that neither are run/controlled by actual normal non-elites, non-sociopathic people anymore. They are ran by the same people, in both places. Look at who is in government cabinet positions.
The people need to run everything because the people are everything.
You can't have a true democracy when 55% of your population vote for one person, and 45% for the other. There should not be that much divide. If you include 3rd party then sometimes a minority of the people then pick the president.
That is even besides the point... because elections are propaganda driven entertainment. They do nothing, its all a farce, and the joke is on us.
The solution to the issue is not as simple as raising taxes on rich people.
Yes perhaps that can fund more social security/food stamp type programs. When you could just cut government waste like "foreign aid" TSA, F22, because those don't help feed and shelter US people.
