description: These protests provided some hilarity at the expense of clueless retards... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/04/16/10-most-offensive-tea-par_n_187554.html You guys have to keep in mind that you still do enjoy lower taxes compared to a ton of other countries. Plus, the higher America's taxes are, the better it is for Canada, because it means we'll have the lowest rates in the G8 even before 2013.

I'm sick and tired of right-wing blowhards and I'm equally pissed off with left-wing pussies; I think much of the polarization I see in the United States stems from cynical networks adopting 'biases' in order to improve ratings, and provide value to shareholders.

description: Every time I see one of these tea-party blowhards, I simultaneously laugh and rage. Faux News had a bit where they had some guy literally take "one million teabags", and dump them in some nearby body of water. Protesting "wasteful" government spending by destroying a product? Genius. Does anyone remember what the right-wing response was during 6-8 years of unpopular policy? "Why do you hate America?" "Love it or leave it!" "Get out of my country!" "Majority rules!" etc etc. How does irony feel?

They were actually protesting SOMETHING (Like a preemptive war), and waited for Bush to actually do something wrong. Obama hasn't been in office 100 days yet. He hasn't raised or lowered anyone's taxes (yet), in fact all he's done so far with regard to taxes is lower payroll tax. And once large-scale tax policy changes to occur in his administration, a huge majority of Americans are getting lower taxes instead of higher taxes. Whoever that CNN reporter is should be dismissive. The real issue isn't that people are sick of taxes--Only true badasses like cheesesoda who hate everything are upset. The problem here is the republican party doesn't handle defeat well, and they're using any excuse they can get to throw a temper tantrum.

Besides, the tax code is an absolute mess... 62,000 pages. The simplest and, quite honestly, best solution is a national sales tax.

And see, you post what appears to the casual observer to be a logical, structured arguement, but what I read is pure butthurt. Regardless of how it was ratified, it's been a de-facto law for so long it really doesn't matter. That the tax code is a mess is one thing, and I agree completely. That something so basic as income tax is illegal because of some retarded technicality 9001 years ago, and a little bit retarded. Politicians like Ron Paul who promise abolishing income tax are a nice change of pace, but are horribly naive, and as someone who believes communism can work in the near future, I know a thing or two about being naive. It's a grandstanding move that screams showmanship, like a student elected official promising to abolish homework. In the same way you tell kids to stop bitching and do their homework, you should really stop bitching and pay your taxes, just like everyone in the civilized world for the past several hundred years. But that's a different matter. Back on topic: The US has the lowest tax rates of the developed world, most protesters are getting lower taxes, and it's retarded to pin any of this on Obama since he hasn't actually raised anyone's taxes. People are quick to point out the "massive" government spending that our children will pay for, but for some reason don't like talking about Bush's massive government spending that's being paid for right now (Except cheesesoda, who as a non-hypocrite is more than happy to talk about it). Is there really anything else to discuss?

description: That's not really "butthurt". If my entire argument is that a flat tax is Constitutional and a graduated tax isn't, sure... it'd be butthurt, but that's only one of my arguments. A sales tax is much easier to control, and certain items (like exist now for food, etc...) can be tax free... or you could lower the rate. Perhaps on things like education, housing, etc... There are no deadlines, no forms, no audits, no IRS, no government withholding, the rich still pay more than the average joe, and you get to keep 100% of what you make, leaving more money for citizens to save. It's only butthurt if you consider the push to use cleaner, more efficient fuels for vehicles to be butthurt, as well. A more efficient system that has more pros than cons, unlike the current system, seems to be progressive rather than whiny, petty bullshit. But, yes, another discussion for another day.

description: Yeah we may be paying for the Bush spending, but Obama's is going to be paid for over a loooooooooooooooooooooonnnng period of time. Heck, even my citizenship teacher, liberal, agrees that 12% of the budget just to pay for INTEREST in the loans we've been getting from China is pretty dumb. I don't want to have 25+ percent of the budget 10 years from now paying for interest for what we own China. That is precisely why I supported Paul Ryan's budget proposal. It would still have been a lot of spending, but GOSH IT WAS SHOT DOWN BY THE DEMOCRATS BECAUSE IT WOULD RAISE THE NATIONAL DEBT!!! FANCY THAT!!! Yet they supported Obama's budget even though it was projected to raise the debt 1 trillion more in the long run. CHECKOUT THE HYPOCRISY!!!!!

Let's admit my mistakes while glossing them over and BITCH ABOUT SOMETHING THAT HASN'T HAPPENED YET!!!1!!one1!1 I hate to break it to you, Maud, but "Paul Ryan's" proposal (That WAS the budget proposal that didn't include any real numbers, right?) is kind of a joke. The Unfunny kind. Here's one of his graphs: 2080? Really? Republicans couldn't predict a budget accurately for the first half of Bush's first term. You're really taking their numbers seriously for the next 65+ years? GG to you for taking this bullshit seriously. And of course, none of that changes any of this: Dover wrote on Mon, 20 April 2009 20:34 The US has the lowest tax rates of the developed world, most protesters are getting lower taxes, and it's retarded to pin any of this on Obama since he hasn't actually raised anyone's taxes. People are quick to point out the "massive" government spending that our children will pay for, but for some reason don't like talking about Bush's massive government spending that's being paid for right now (Except cheesesoda, who as a non-hypocrite is more than happy to talk about it). Your party lost. Accept it and get to work on a real way to fix your internal issues, instead of slin…

See separation of Church and State is basically not letting any church set rules that govern the state. Separation From church and state would be liberal. Because, then you are taking any christian, judio, hindu, bhuddist, whatever influence out of the picture all together. Then, what morals would we base our country on. You can't base them on anything because every religion teaches morals. Separation of Church and State is as I said before, not allowing any religion to make any rules but still have some influence in the morality of the rules. Separation from Church and State takes all religious influnce, good or bad out all together. I agree that having a church run state is bad for this country because of the way we are, but we shouldn't cut it out all together because some liberal atheists are butthurt about it. It is necessary for the moral fiber of America.

It is necessary for the moral fiber of America. Allow me to refer you to the second panel of this comic. My morals are founded on 'conscience' ... aka, whether or not something is a dick thing to do. I don't need a religion to tell me what is right, or wrong. Humans are generally programmed to know what makes a person an asshole.
