all aboard wrote: Funny how the wealthy have enjoyed all the loopholes for all these years, spend the whole year figuring ways to cheat on taxes. Now, that many of those loopholes will be closed over the next 4 years, what do they FINALLY scream? Flat tax! I pray for all you greedy, money loving snobs. May one day you find your way to ALL things real. They also set-up so called "Non profit " charities. The IRS has been very lack over the past 20 years and monitoring their take in money versus their spendind out on the reason they set up these tax-free charities. IRS guidlines show that for every dollar brought in approx. 85 % is to be paid out to those they set-up to help. 30 billion dollars raised by several inteties such as Salvation Army,Red Cross, and releif for Haiti fund find that very little went to Haiti and out of 30 billion collected only 10 million got to these people. This leaves billions to buy expensive cars office furniture, private airplanes and expensive homes. The IRS should investigate these tax dodging scumbags and fine and throw in jail many wealthy individuals who have used this form to evade taxes. They set-up bank accounts in the Camen Islands and you are given a number for your account then the bank invests in US securities and the Americam government investments are invested in all kinds of securities. The bank then deposits your profits into your numbered bank account And the US government does'nt know who owns these bank accounts and will not demand the actual people who have a numbered bank account from these banks. The banks since foreign do not have to pay interest taxes. The wealthy person with the bank account does'nt either.

Notice just how many people judge you and your alter eagos post in a negative way. That just proves most people in this country have hope and promise of a better tomorrow. You are only concerend with what you have or hope to have. You have this mistaken opinion that poor people, handicaped people and old people are stealing from you. You are correct, but on a scale so small it makes little difference, an unwanted aircraft carrier here and there from the defense budget would make up that small amount. I for one would encourage a heart attack, solving all your complaints.

I did make a point. You didn't accept the point I was making. Duh. My alter egos? I have none. I always post as Synergy. I am registered and I have no reason to hide behind another ID. Of course, if it makes your paranoid self feel better to believe I have alter egos, go for it. Most people don't think like me? Just exactly how do you know that? lol Magic? Mental telepathy? Your whole last paragraph is the most pitiful bunch of drivel that I've read all day. Typical left wing nonsense. You are positively eaten UP with wealth envy. You are jealous, envious and all of the other words that describe your miserable, nonproductive life. Your last sentence just proves what a worthless example of a human being you are.

There you go, complaining that we are spending our money on $3 Billion nuclear attack submarines,$5 Billion aircraft carriers, and more fighter jets at $200 Million a copy, while our infrastructure is falling apart, our citizens are dying for lack of health care, and our kids rank 30th in education, behind such educational powerhouses such as Latvia. But hey, somebody has to make Lockheed Martin, General Electric, and Goldman Sachs even more profitable, and protect us against the dreaded Tuvaluvian blitzkrieg.

Your last sentence just proves what a worthless example of a human being you are. Here's something I'd like to ask you. Since you and others say that because income tax loopholes exist and are legal that you should take advantage of them. Not just some of them, but all of the tax breaks that are available.(Heck, that's the American way, you'd say - it's legal, after all.) OK, so what if all the people out there who are actually eligible for welfare, food stamps, etc. were to think like you do. I mean, heck, it's legal to get food stamps if your income is below a certain threshold, so why not.. Welfare? Heck Yeah. Yet, I know numerous people - myself included at this unfortunate turn of events in my life - who DO NOT choose to go on welfare. We do not choose to accept food stamps. Why? Because we have ethics and morality. We know that welfare and food stamps are for those who are truly in need. Yet, the government says it's legal for us to have that assistance. So why is that all of the rich people out there will take ANY deduction they can, acting as if it's a virtual civic duty to milk the system?(hey, it's legal, you say) Is it moral or ethical to do these things? Legal, maybe, but ethical?

You really should learn what the hell you're talking about. You don't. We ALL pay the same tax rates on the same kind of income. To say or think differently is disingenuous, ignorance (meaning you don't know it, but could learn), or stupidity (meaning you're incapable of learning). BTW, your spelling sucks, too.

"Since you and others say that because income tax loopholes exist and are legal that you should take advantage of them. Not just some of them, but all of the tax breaks that are available." Ponder this: Why would someone pay any more in taxes than they're legally required to pay? Are you faulting someone for not paying more than required? Do you pay more than required at the grocery store? A restaurant? On YOUR taxes? BTW, can you explain the difference between a loophole and a tax deduction?

I figured you wouldn't answer the questions. But, then, you really don't have to, do you? We all know the answer. But I do give you credit where it's due. You would make a fabulous spin man - perhaps you should go into politics. Your ethics and morality would be just perfect.

Legal, maybe, but ethical? It's human nature to try to protect what you have worked for. Why is it only the "rich" who should look at it from a moral standpoint? When is the last time you've asked someone gaming the welfare system how they felt morally about that? See the problem here? YOU are expecting the rich to feel quilty over money they have earned and want to protect, however, you aren't expecting those who are able bodied and capable of working to feel quilty because they are gaming and making it difficult for those who really need and deserve the help. It's that old liberal double standard. If someone has worked and earned their money, what is immoral about protecting it as long as they aren't breaking the law? If you qualify for food stamps, etc.and choose not to take them, I admire you for your pride and productivity, however, if you truly need help, you should take it. That is what it is for. Liberals are always exclaiming, "It's not fair". Well, it's not fair to expect the producers to feel quilty, but not the welfare system gamers. Where is your outrage about that?

You have got to be the most arrogant person i've ever read on here. Just full of yourself or something else. It's people like you who get away with paying less taxes than the average man because of capital gains tax rates and other bullsh-t.
