4. That's really why it needs to be taxed away
because when the lower 90% is expected to shoulder the entire burden of government and their incomes are steadily falling, government is not able to keep up with things like maintaining the infrastructure.
It's not just your paycheck that suffered. It's roads, bridges, dams, the electrical grid, the electronic grid, the rail system. We've fallen behind most of the rest of the first world on all this stuff because a few rich men have stripmined this country for the last 30+ years.
I still want to start the STEAL IT BACK movement.
Warpy, you ignorant scrunt.
I'm about had it up to here [holding left hand up to my chin] with you whiny DUmbasses wanting to "steal" the money I have invested from my taxed earnings to create a fund from which I intend to survive in my retirement, and am hopeful that I can pass a little of it unto my heirs. I had the audacity in my early years to take a fine practical skill set taught to me by my Dad farming and turn it into a fine career as a "fixer" for the engineering firm I now work for.
What have
you done for society? I help our clients keep the electrical current flowing to you abode so that you can idle away vast amounts of time on the internets bad mouthing all that is good and decent in America. My life, my skills, my knowledge is dedicated to maintaining and creating that infrastructure.
And now, as I near the date of my change from a life of work to a life of liesure, you want to "steal" from me the fruits of my endeavours? Meh!
Don't come near me when I am practicing my hobby skills, now or after my retirement. Keep your crooked, bony meathooks away from the wealth I have stashed away to supplement Social Security (if there is any left for me).
And how come you aren't out baking free pies for the gubmint workers?
