Why isnt the idea of tax and spend a good idea?
It is a very good idea up to a point. Those more fortunate should help those that fall on bad times and need a hand up occasionally. I'd venture to say that most Americans feel that way. The problem comes when the spending gets way out of hand paying for frivolous unnecessary things, then there is not enough money to cover the basics.
Way back when the Ky lottery was being promoted and the money would go to our schools is an example.... I was only for the lottery because it would be used for our school children. Well it wasn't long before the greedy, give me, me too had their grimey hands in the pot and guess WHAT our school children are STILL in need!
You can't trust the greedy unrealistic politicians to spend our tax dollars wisely. :arg! At a point we get tired of paying more and more while they live a lavish lifestyle.
If they would make a budget like most of us and stick with it most of us would not mind the tax & spend.
AND I do not want Obama taking our hard earned income and share it with others just because he is trying to achieve his "economic justice".
Obama can't tax the poor because they have nothing to tax.
The rich won't pay any more taxes so they will hide their money.
So who does that leave to tax - middle income families.
Don't be fooled! THINK about it!
