Why aren't americans clamoring in the streets about the constant taxation without representation?

Answer 1

Oh, because that would be racist or elitist or greedy. The U.S. programs which enable MORE immigration of low/no-skilled labor and MORE social programs for the low/no-skilled populace and MORE taxation of wealth-building Americans while MORE inflation saps up MORE buying power and leaves MORE Americans looking for tax breaks are a sad state of affairs.

America is the land of opportunity for those willing to break the system and profit, whether it's Chevron or Carlos. The poor get their share of the government pie, and the rich keep getting their share. And who goes to war? Who pays the most aggregate tax? Who loses the most employment? Who is continually squeezed by fuel, housing and education prices? THE MIDDLE CLASS. AMERICA's BACKBONE.

I would welcome a flat federal consumption tax, and that's it. If state or county sales tax is 7-10%, tack on another 7-10% and leave my paycheck ALONE. I'm all for securing more and cheaper oil, but 500 billion dollars later, the oil is MORE EXPENSIVE (wrong way chief!). So if we can't fight our way to cheaper oil, then give me some money back, let the Chinese fund our wars, since they've done so well selling us crap and calling us names.

Another American Revolution will take place, and this time, the winners won't stand for people who don't pull their weight. It's about time.

Answer 2

More BS against the wall. I do not even know what you are talking about. Be more specific and maybe I'll answer. If there WAS AN EXCUSE TO CLAMOR IN THE STREETS, I'm sure the commislamics would already be there.

Answer 3

The Sheeple believe their party will take care of them. But Democrats and Republicans are the same. They don't represent their constituents. Both major parties are beholden to the special interests and corporatations that donate to the national parties. They use tax dollars to create designer legislation to pay back those contrinutors.

The politicians report and answer to the national political committees and not their constituents who put them into office.

It's time for another Boston Tea Party.

Vote Libertarian.

Answer 4

Well, here in my district, the vast majority of the citizenry support sales tax, so that if you buy a Cadillac Escelade you'll pay more in taxes than if you bought a used Ford Pinto (if there are any left unexploded... LOL). It's time to make those who spend more pay more. Income tax is broken. Sales tax is a better alternative.

Answer 5

Because there is representation. The problem is that the democrats LOVE to tax people and keep doing it....And you keep voting them back in.

It is your fault. Don't blame the system!

And when Bush makes tax breaks...you claim they are for the wealthy! Did you ever ever ever get a tax rebabte BEFORE Bush did it? NO, You didn't !!!!!

Answer 6

Cuz we have representation. You voted for a congressman and a senator and president. They represent you.
