You are right. There should be a percentage number that everyone pays on their income with no loopholes to exploit.

The "loopholes" are generally in how you determine income amount.

It’s both….

The bottom game the system isn’t new and sadly has become a life style for some. Collecting the government check in the mail is an occupation for some. My favorite two stories is one lady who quit her job because she made to much for low income housing and the other is a dad who would only do scheduled meetings with his son if he received a gas card and check for doing so at JFS. The kicker is he never did see his son as he left right away after getting his handouts. Then you have the people who can’t afford one child but decide to have 2-3 more children.

Then you have the ultra elite who hold stupid amount of wealth. Why do these rich people need the government to fund projects that they themselves have the wealth to do themselves? I believe the Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals are both want to either renovate or build new stadiums. Both are owned by Billionaires yet need the tax payers to fund their projects though they have the funds to do it themselves. Seems like a waste of government money if you ask me.

I’d say they both exploit the government at the expense of the tax payer.

Aren't those both examples of spending problems?

And this is why we need musk. These people are so corrupt they’ll continue to try and make payments that aren’t approved.

Who are the "you guys" that you are referring to? Has anyone on this board actually donated to the fund Bannon was a part of? Is there an audience here that you're actually addressing or are you just screaming at the wall again?

I'm not really sure what you're trying to accomplish by posting this link.

The Four Horsemen of Corruption: Trump, Bannon, Manafort & Stone. Galloping grifters getting all they can from Americans. So sad!

Anyone want to bet they file suit and get their jobs back?
