My money gets taken just like everybody elses to support the government that allows you to have a job and or have the business. You insinuated such in post #41 that someone who inherited money doesn’t deserve it because he has employees. > [@OFFICIAL: 2008 ELECTION THREAD](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/official-2008-election-thread/41192/483): > > They have every right to charge whatever they want to make their structure survive and if you don’t like it you’re free to go elsewhere. You can’t be serious? Maybe in russia you leave, guess you couldn’t handle your commie comrades where you came from. I don’t think you understand the principles on which this country was built. When you don’t like what your government is doing you don’t just leave. This is OUR country, not the governments. You vote in new representation, but unfortunately it doesn’t matter which party you bring in here they are both ineffective these days. > [@OFFICIAL: 2008 ELECTION THREAD](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/official-2008-election-thread/41192/483): > > What right do they have to have influence over the government using their finances when I do not have the same option? 1 man one vote. quit voting in scumbags. I know at least one presidential candidate that wasn’t spoonfed cash and wanted actual reform. > [@OFFICIAL: 2008 ELECTION THREAD](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/official-2008-election-thread/41192/483): > > What right do they have to have certain taxes that are based off % of income/wealth for the rest capped at a certain point in time so they pay a smaller %? IE social security iirc. Do you not understand how social security works? The more you contribute the more you get, so why would someone who is rich have to put in more money, they will only get less back for themselves, who are they hurting? its their own money. > [@OFFICIAL: 2008 ELECTION THREAD](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/official-2008-election-thread/41192/483): > > What right do they have to spend a small fortune on lawyers to figure out loopholes to avoid paying as many taxes as possible while the rest of us just pay it? Why do you blame the rich people, they are using the laws written by our lawmakers, if you don’t like it you are free to leave… --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/anybody-else-see-the-u-s-credit-rating-drop/259802)._
