Ferdinand :

Because those taxes are used to pay for things you take for granted like roads. schools and hospitals. And if you are rich enough that you don't have to care for such things, you deserve to be taxed until you do.

There are also laws against murder and I bet there are people who also complain they are too restrictive but too bad.

Anyway, I'm not an American so I cant vote anyway or have any say in your politics, but to answer the question. Bush the third. He seems like the least loony one, God forbid.

Brigand : I know that taxes pay for infrastructure. Taxes should not pay for bribes to foreign leaders. Taxes should not pay to violate constitutional rights, line the pockets of politicians, subsidize laziness, support a welfare state. The middle class and poor always get hit the worst when taxes are increased.  You sound like a socialist.

Ferdinand :

And you sound like fascist rich person.

Taxes should not violate constitutional rights or go to leaders of any kinds. Not yours or foreign ones. What they should provide for are the basic needs of the working- and the middle class. How the taxation is done, ofcource, is totally a different thing how it is supposed to work. If it hits hardest  "always" to those that have not, then your system is at flaw. You are just not taxing the right people. And I'm not talking about the owners of mom and pop shops here.

Brigand : Whatever.  If fascism is reality then so be it but I've never been close to rich. You think everyone should be forced to live according to your values but I'm a fascist. Ok. Taxes are only collected under the threat of violence you know, and they violate my religious freedom, and = therefore, my constitutional rights. Christ they're suing nuns over this crap. But tax the rich unfairly and they'll leave or spend their money elsewhere. So they raise their prices, so the poor suffer. And you don't have to worry about the mom & pop stores. Obamacare has taken care of most of them. (a tax) Give more money to the government, I'm sure iit'lll be spent wisely. Should taxes pay to send Iran a billion dollars when they hate us instead of being spent at home? Should taxes be used as start-up capital for failed green-energy projects? President Obama has spent more money than ALL previous presidents COMBINED. 9 TRILLION dollars. And you want to give him more power? Despite all his reckless spending and unconstitutional actions the country is going down the toilet. And his hand is on the handle. Local taxes yes. Federal taxes go for defense and very little else. And abolish the IRS. The more power you give them, the less resistance they endure, the more emboldened they feel. 

Worst case scenario where I could only vote for a guy like Carson or Trump? I would probably move to a different country. It's not so much about what political party they are affiliated with, but rather the fact that both are racist lunatics that really don't have much business running for political office in the first place. Thought Romney was bad?? Those two make him look like Mr. Rodgers lol

NameEntry : "Corporations are controlling the government, so we need more government to fix it!"

That really makes no sense. Corporations and government benefit each other. Corporations give money to the government, and the government makes it harder for competition, like small business, to succeed. We need less regulation, not more.

FalcoDude : That's not even close to what I posted to don't straw man me. Most wealthy people don't pay the appropriate amount of taxes they need to and many big businesses pay much less taxes or receive money from the government to the point that said corporations make money.

Bernie will make these businesses and rich people pay the taxes they owe and use this money to help out the American people.

NameEntry : I don't support corporate welfare. If the business is going to fail let it fail.

Adding more taxes and regulations slow economic growth.

Taxation is theft as well, point blank. It doesn't matter if rich people are being taxed, or the poor, income tax is theft.

Consumption tax however, isn't theft, as it's voluntary.

How exactly will Sanders do "help the american people"?

His plans are unsustainable, it's estimated they will cost $18 trillion. If you taxed all corporations and "the 1%" at 100% for 5 years, that's still not enough to pay for it.

Enough is enough, cut spending.

I highly doubt that all the Democrats will drop out because every presidential election, there is at least a Democrat and a Republican facing each other and sometimes, an Independent, but last time we had a 3-way race was 1992. Also, with all the controversy Clinton had been going through, Benghazi, e-mail, and all that and she's still in it, so, I don't see her dropping out anytime soon. I know there is a lot of Republicans, but 1/2-2/3 of them will drop out, I feel like Trump, Cruz, Bush, and Paul will stay in the running.

Just got a feeling it will be Trump (R) vs. Clinton (D) next year.

Even know I don't vote Republicans because they are normally idiots (both parties are actually), but I still would go with Trump, because I told myself, President Trump, this would be interesting to see on how the United States will be under Trump power.


Oldschool777 : I do agree with you fully, they say that every vote counts, but it's not true. Look at what happened in the 2000 presidential election, Al Gore end up winning the whole thing by the people, but George Bush Jr end up winning by the electoral college and he end up being the one that took the office. Another thing, in states like California, Texas, New York, Florida, Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Ohio, if you win in those 7 states, you basically won the entire election, no matter what the people in the other 43 states says.

That is very true,win those huge states and you basically have the 280 votes to win. The electoral college is an outdated system that should have been scrapped many many years ago.

FalcoDude : Corporate welfare is a thing right now and Bernie wants to fix this. He wants to tax the rich and corporations that are not paying enough money and have bought out the government to leave huge loopholes for the wealthy.
Bernie will fix this and use the money gained from these people and corporations actually paying taxes to give free healthcare, free college, and many other things. Taxes are not a bad thing if everyone pays them and the rich and corporations are not paying what they should be and that's one of the reasons why the economy is so bad right now.

"Sanders' plans are unsustainable, it's estimated they will cost $18 trillion. If you taxed all corporations and "the 1%" at 100% for 5 years, that's still not enough to pay for it."

I like how you ignored my point completely and responded with a bunch of subjective gibberish like "taxes are good1!!111"

FalcoDude : Yes, it will cost a ton of money to close loopholes and fund all the programs but the money gained in a much better economy and from the taxes from the rich will do more than pay what it will cost.
It takes money to make money. Also you're completely wrong and misled about the amount of money the ultra rich and corporations have.

You need to do your own research and don't regurgitate what the corporation-owned media tells you. All media in the US is owned by six companies and most of them are conservative. They want to keep feeding you lies so you will refuse to see what they're doing to this country.

NameEntry : What are you even talking about?
http://www.wsj.com/articles/price-tag-of-bernie-sanders-proposals-18-trillion-1442271511

WE CANNOT AFFORD 18 TRILLION DOLLARS! OUR ECONOMY WILL CRASH!

Why do Sanders' supporters not get this?

I recommend any book by Ron Paul, Gary Johnson, or Murray Rothbard.

FalcoDude : Yet again, you're being completely misled by the conservative right. It will not cost eighteen trillion dollars to do all this. That number has been made up by the conservative right so everyone will fight against Bernie.

Have you done any research at all outside of the Wall Street Journal website? WSJ has been bought out by Rupert Murdoch who is a very wealthy conservative and doesn't want Bernie to become president so he can keep making billions of dollars and control even more of the media. Rupert Murdoch also owns Fox News which is famous for being very conservative and outright lying about Bernie Sanders and other non-right wing subjects. http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2015/06/11/what-rupert-murdoch-owns/71089066/

If you choose to feed off the lies and trash that the ultra conservative media feeds you, then I see no need to continue this. THEY ARE LYING TO YOU SO THAT THEY CAN CONTINUE TO TAKE YOUR MONEY AND TURN YOU INTO A SLAVE.

NameEntry : think about it, we have a limit on how much we can spend on american dollars. all the american dollars = 18 trillion thats the max limit.

NameEntry : Your logical fallacy is showing!

Instead of attacking my argument logically, you use non sense like this.

FalcoDude : There is no argument on your end. You're repeating what the conservative media tells you. Eighteen trillion dollars will be easily paid by the ultra rich and corporations.
