Can't do that because they hate us for our freedoms.

It's really amazing the lengths they are going to, in order to bride people for their votes and/or cause a divide.

Good plan on the war tax...  the president’s on Mount Rushmore would prolly agree.

 

i think it should be expanded upon though to have the top 5 most expensive expenditures/programs of the government have there own line items on your paycheck stub....  also the projected amount of tax you would need to pay to have a balanced budget.

Are neither you nor a family member a current or former member of the U.S. armed forces? There might be a tax for that. 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke proposed a “war tax” Monday as part of the former Texas congressman’s plan to support veterans and spread the burden of military conflict.

O’Rourke’s “war tax” is part of the candidate’s new plan to provide better services to the nation’s veterans and to end the “Forever Wars” in the Middle East.

 

“The time has come to cancel the blank check for endless war and to ensure that any future engagements are the result of a national conversation about our security interests and duly authorized by Congress,” O’Rourke’s plan states.

The new tax, according to O’Rourke, would apply to households that lack either current or former members of the military. Qualifying households with an income below $30,000 a year would pay $25, and those making under $40,000 annually would pay $57. Households with an income below $50,000 would pay $98, those making less than $75,000 would pay $164 and those under $100,000 would pay $270. Households making less than $200,000 would pay $485 and those making above $200,000 would pay $1,000.

If military costs were a separate line item on your income tax form, that would be even better.

How much do these endless wars cost per year per household?

If everything on your federal  , state and local tax bill was broken down into each line item spending , this country would blow up . Same when the elected pols  give themselves pay + benefit   raises , each of them never stands up in the well and says " Yes I deserve a pay increase " . It is always hidden into other spending bills.

How are we paying? We run deficits every year about equal to our defense spending. 

Just a thought but what is the $ amount of unpaid taxes per year?

What is more concerning is that 45% of Americans pay no income tax at all.  Of those, upwards of 70% owe taxes.

But those “rich” mother fuckers, eh?  How dare them pay out the nose to cover everyone’s nut. GET THEM!!!!!

Fuck it, just stop taking anything out of your paychecks and have it all happen at the end of the year when you do your taxes.  See how that would fly.....shit would get real in a hurry.

You can claim as many dependents/exceptions as you want as a W4 employee throughout the year.  I say claim 99 dependents.

Now, when tax time comes, just get a creative accountant.

Not sure? As a % of total amount due I'd say it's probably pretty low
