   Perhaps they pay a proper amount based upon their   
   contribution to society.   
      
   >   
   >You asked for a definition - that is one for me.   
      
   That isn't a definition.  It is a suggested method for tax   
   collection.  One that will not work without a lot of   
   exemptions, which would not make it very fair.   
      
      
   > It is also a worker

   Why should someone else work to earn money just to reduce   
   the weight on your shoulders?  If I was offered a job where   
   I would work twice as hard for almost no increase in income   
   I would simply stay where I am.  Why should my goal be to   
   provide what a worker would consider ideal?  I much prefer   
   what I would consider ideal.   
      
      
   Why should I start a company, work 18 hours a day seven days   
   a week for years before making it highly successful only to   
   have most of the profits eaten up by taxes?   
      
   --   
      
      
   Every person in the US is here either   
   legally or illegally. Those that are   
   here illegally should be afraid.   
   Be very afraid.  It does not matter   
   how long you have been here.  It does   
   not matter why you are here. It does not   
   matter what you have done legally while you   
   were here. It does not matter what any   
   relative may have done while you were here.   
   It only matters that you are here illegally.   
   It may take a day, a week, a year, or longer   
   but we will find you and we will deport you.   
   Be prepared.   
      
   Deport them all.   
      
   All politicians are trained to lie   
   and make those lies sound like   
   the truth.  They start with the biggest   
   lie of all: Politicians are public   
   servants.   
      
   The Dims have an appropriate party   
   symbol: A jackass.   
      
   National Socialist American Workers Party   
   (NSAWP) formally known as the Democrat Party   
      
   Some of the Republican positions I find disgusting   
   and abhorrent.   
   Most of the Democratic positions I find terrifying.   
      
   I support:   
      
   A Constitional Amendment establishing   
   the Freedom of Choice.   
      
   The elimination of public expression,   
   display or support of religion or   
   religious positions.
