[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 2701657, member: 7966"] I believe that all citizens should pay taxes if they make over a living wage. [COLOR=#ff0000]I agree[/COLOR] Those taxes should provide for their health and security. [COLOR=#ff0000]I don't agree with that only ... there are many things those taxes should be used for.[/COLOR] I believe all citizens should be given a free education to the extent they can benefit from it - [COLOR=#ff0000]I don't agree with that if you mean in a school where one gets a degree or certificate. I believe citizens should have access to education (beyond High School) if it is to benefit and serve the needs of society. Anything that can be learned in schools can be learned by the individual going to the library or go on-line.[/COLOR] I believe all citizens should have free, pure water and healthcare - [COLOR=#ff0000]Water - Nope ... I live out in the country to be away from others. I don't think the government should spend hundreds of thousands of dollars just so I can have pure clean water. Healthcare: Yep, I believe in free reasonable healthcare for both physical and mental health concerns.[/COLOR] I believe those who are wealthy beyond their [B]needs [/B]should contribute to the welfare of those less fortunate, according to their[B] means[/B] - [COLOR=#ff0000]Not hardly and what the heck are needs and means? I believe that taxes should be progressive and should be used for the improvement of society. I believe that no taxes of any kind should be capped. Wealth should be taxed as well as income. The fact that wealth is not taxed is a big problem.[/COLOR] I believe we should engage in equal trade. [COLOR=#ff0000]OK, I guess. Not sure what that means. I do believe in reciprocal tariffs if that's what you mean.[/COLOR] I believe we should strive to make all humans equal in their living conditions. [COLOR=#ff0000]Nope, I find that very idea very unworkable and will destroy initiative. Maybe we are not that far apart on this idea if the concept was expanded to understand what elements should be equal.[/COLOR] [SIZE=5][COLOR=#ff0000] [B]Thank you for the sharing your beliefs![/B][/COLOR][/SIZE] They stimulated me and I got a lot of satisfaction in thinking through your ideas through and comparing to my beliefs. We should get together over a few drinks and have a lively discussion. [/QUOTE]
