come on Waffler go ahead and respond to Jim's challenge. Why dont you pay more taxes? I hate how you socialist scum think that people who have more money dont deserve their money and that the government should take it by force and give it to someone YOU think is more deserving.

Little wonder that Waffler is a socialist. Maybe you didn't get the memo Waffler - Socialism and liberty are opposites. You can't have individual liberty if the "state" owns everything or can take everything with taxes!

Anyone who thinks that the tax level we have now provides us with wealth, safety, and freedom is a complete fool. All of these things come from people living correct principles (thrift, industry, mutual respect, etc) NOT FROM THE GOVERNMENT.

Amen E Archer! Every American should recognize the truth in this quote and the great danger that socialism poses to personal liberty.

Too bad more american's dont consider our income tax too high---to the point to vote for lower taxes and reduced spending.

We can cut the debt and taxes by reducing spending. It is a paradigm shift we need, one of not trying to accomplish all things through the government.

Its their money Waffler ! You are incredibly stupid. In fact, why don't you give all of us (this site's population) control over your income and your assets, so we can spend it as WE see fit. Until you volunteer to do that you are a liar and a hypocrite!

I would like to see a constitutional amendment that made it illegal to spend more than the government takes in.

Waffler Hahhaha. Yes we are sure you are so happy that the government taxes and spends other people's money!

Waffler - The quote is not about burying money moron.

I love how you gave this a five star waffler --that's funny

this is not about innovation versus tradition; its about who gets to decide what happens in our society --either central planners or everyone for themselves and their own lives.

The point is that its not the government's job to take care of the poor, feed the hungry, and otherwise take care of everyone. The government should be a referee only.

Wow, you mean there is a truth that Waffler acknowledges!?

better that no one has the power to control everyone.

Waffler you're examples of successful goverments informs us as to what success means to you.

history is against you waffler!

Waffler That's the difference between you and most everyone else who visits this site, You think the IRS is doing us all a favor. Why can't you see that all the paperwork and regulations on how to "properly do your taxes" is a result of too much government, that the infrastructure of the IRS is the problem not the solution.
