Ok, Now I am going off on a rant. My husband fell asleep listening to it. I B**ch everyday. And there really is no answer other than the fair tax.
We have all heard of the article about "I have to take a pee test to work, why dont you have to take one to get paid by the govt to exist" I bet we could cut the deficit in half, and only the strong survive, just like the animal kingdom.
Lets go a step further. We have to show a drivers license to buy liquor, use a credit card, etc. Why not just have to show your ID to buy Liquor, cigarettes, lotto, cell phones, show it everywhere you buy anything. On this document you can surrender your lungs or other usable item of your body should you die in an accident, so how is it impeding privacy? Attached to your ID, it should say if you are on public assistance. If you are, no smokes, no alcohol, no cell phone, and no lotto. If you are receiving help to live, you do not qualify to buy these things. Its like paying the govt twice and taxing us to the hilt. Im not talking of social security age people Im speaking of people younger than myself, who have never worked a day in their life. Its not because people cant find jobs, its also from a lifelong habit of living off the taxpayers. I have no problem helping someone who is working and needs help, just those living month to month off of me and you.
The other thing is this subject I have heard of making it illegal to put your home in the name of your children to avoid losing it in the case of you needing long term care. While I say OK, you should pay for your own long term care, until we take the people off the roles that we pay for them from the cradle to the grave, how can we punish people who DID work for 40 50 and more yrs, by taking what they earned? If non workers get free long term care, why should the people who have paid into the system, all their lives get no free care. why are the hard working people the only ones taxed, or punished so to speak?
Maybe I am the only one bothered by this, but I know I have places on my route who are begging for employees, and the pay isnt bad, 10 bucks to start, better than welfare, but it takes effort. Something lacking in this demographic.
Instead of the IRS going through my return with a fine tooth comb, maybe they ought to go to the area stores in the !st and have people show them how they are driving a LEXUS, yet qualify for food stamps. How they need help with food but spend 300 on lotto tickets. Take the pee test, if you dont pass, you dont get. Think of the money it would save us all. You cant pass a drug test, no wonder you cant get a job, quit now, no more money, we would see society improve immensly. JMHO, as always
