White Folks Pandering

[Fred's Myth]

C’mon now. Class envy wil always exist but there was a time when a single worker in the household could comfortably afford to raise a family. And that was the norm. We’re a long way from that now.

There's a direct correlation between women entering the workforce, and the necessity now for a two income household.

Not sure what part is hard for you to understand. We haven’t been paying as we go because we hate taxes. Who is going to pay for what we haven’t paid for? If we as a society haven’t paid for it, we as individuals (rugged or not) haven’t either.

OK

No matter if we collect X taxes under this president, or Y taxes under that president, we spend more than we take in. We should do an across the board cut on everything until we balance the budget and then some to pay down the debt, but no one wants to take the political hit.

I still think some future generation will just confiscate Social Secity.

I think you were. Anyone that considers themselves or their generation somehow more fiscally responsible than another is being myopic.

And I have never remotely thought that.
I understand you always tend or absolutely think of things in terms of groups.
I rarely do and I was not in any of my posts to which you responded.

I absolutely consider myself more fiscally responsible than most people.
That's why I could retire at 58 and live a life that is way below my means.
I have money to help others out that are in hard times ... about $30K so far this year.

What's there to confiscate? In as early as ten years there will only be what is taken in with payroll taxes.

Actually if we ever get past racial issues, maybe we’ll get around to economic oppression that affects far mor people.

Lol.
Keep crying about racism.
Hilarious.

previous generations were pretty much forced to be more responsible. Credit was harder to get and your credit history was part of your employment application.

not to mention the wars and depressions that taught you the importance of saving a nickle when you had one.

I didn't get my check yet big, nice fella. Maybe the postal service misplaced it.
Still waiting for that box of used underwear like Brother Bill used to donate and get the tax deduction for.

Typical Jew hating black.
Shame on you.

Hey, I thought you hated Jews as well.

So we (our government that sets monetary policy) has given us permission to live wantonly and wastefully and pass the expense off to future generations. And some like @Old Man Jingles wants to suggest there is anything remotely responsible about this country’s citizens/taxpayers? That’s insane.

Actually I was doing exactly the opposite but it is you so I don’t expect comprehension the first time around.

Don’t pay it out. Personally I think they should use it to pay down the debt we’ve been compiling over the decades.

You brought up racism because you have been brainwashed and it is always at the forefront of your mind.
Very sad.

The government ain't done st in regards to individual fiscal responsibility.

Input - Spending = Amount of wealth

You mean pay it back? Because it was taken from us with the sole intent and promise to pay it BACK.

Only they won't. It'll be a new source to fund buying votes. You think impoverishing tens of millions of seniors too old to work is a good idea? Take their work contributions for decades and give nothing back?

 

[Fred's Myth]

Hell, they even tax it again.

Absolutely. The generations that took us into Iraq and Afghanistan should be the ones paying for it.

Are the protesters you support going to repay the damages they created?
