so if the lowest tax bracket contributes only a marginal % of tax revenue, why try and place even more of a burden on them? Personally, I think the income tax should just be done away with. It was only supposed to be temporary, and when it was originally conceived it was a fraction of what it is now % wise.

This country needs to have MASSIVE, MASSIVE spending cuts. It’s GOVERNMENT GONE WILD here in the US. The bullshit programs and bureauracies we fund and the pork barrel spending has gone completly unchecked. Our military spending is OUTRAGEOUS. The federal government needs to be gutted and rebuilt from the bottom up. It might take 10 years or more to do it, but it HAS to be done. We’re pissing away so much taxpayer money its ridiculous.

remove property taxes, lower income taxes.

Whats the point of taxing you on something that you already own, and do not transfer ownership to over and over?

I’m not renting land from my borough, county, city, or state. I own it, it’s my land. I shouldn’t be taxed on it over and over.

income tax has its purpose, but it’s %'s are out of hand.

Thats fine, with your arguement on the poor. But why should the rich pay more of a %? Because they have more? sorry, but this is not a socialist or a communist nation, we’re equal in our value to humanity, but our contribution factor will never be.
