    The only reason the tax code is tens of thousands of pages long is because politicians have been bribed to make it that way and to have more control over the people. A flat tax would add more money in people's pockets and more power to the people. Sadly, some people will defend these scumbags and even support more taxes because they are stupid. No other way to say it. Even when there's overwhelming evidence (19 trillion debt) of incompetence and lies, stupid people will still claim more taxes is the answer. Spending is the problem. Wasteful spending. Those who don't understand will never understand.

    when did so many people find it acceptable for their government to go debt for 19 trillion with nothing to show for it? Infrastructure is getting worse and the debt is there because they are fixing it. The US taxpayer just spent 43 MILLION on a gas station in Afghanistan. That could have been better spent in Flint, Michigan on the water system, wouldn't you agree?

    Watch this .... and tell me you want more taxes without any accountability.

    government has a place in society but they don't need to run our lives. They shouldn't. Some people submit to government to solve our problems even though the evidence is overwhelming that they cannot be trusted.

    Say whatever you want about Bernie. The fact is he is trying to help the 99%. Like it or not. Agree or disagree . He wants make it better for the majority. Anti establish style. Big balls. Telling big pharm , Walmart and Koch to suq his droopy nuts. The guy tells the truth . It may not work. But fuq. Even the most conservative Republican bible thumping, gun toting , war loving, oil guzzling, China job creating ,Walmart shareholding, climate changeing ,Mexican hating, anti- choice , GREEDY , shovenistic , Goldman supporters should at least tip their hats and say that man wants to help people. But they don't and they won't. That is why it is obvious everyone here that hates him has an agenda. If you are not intelligent enough to at least tip your hat to the man for trying. Fuq you .The world is worse with you in it. I mean it. If you research Bernie. Really. And don't give him credit for trying to be a patriot and make this country better for 99% of us. You should definitely think about jumping off a Fuqen cliff.

    I claimed ~ 68,000 on my taxes yesterday and I get a $500 welfare check. I did not have a dime taken out of a "check" for federal taxes in 2015. No wonder the nation is so far in the red.

    How is that possible, but you do have to pay the fed right? Sounds like a huge bill.

    I haven't researched it, but just by hearing in here how high their fuel costs are, that tells me everything else is

    Then you have a Repub controlled congress who are attometly opposed to hike up taxes, especially the rich

    You can preach all day and night about free shit, but when reality hits on how it gets paid for, the people will
    throw you out on your ear. They want it, but don't want to pay for it.

    Bernie followers need to come out of the clouds and use that thing on top of their shoulders.
    you're a penetrating idiot!

    people will gladly pay $500/year more in taxes if it saves them $5000/year in premiums/co pays/deductibles. people will gladly pay $1.80/week more in taxes if it means they get 6 weeks paid family and sick leave.

    listen guy, congress has a 9% approval rating for a simple reason: they don't pursue the policies that the public wants (i.e., bernie's entire penetrating agenda). if the revolution is successful (i.e., we put bernie in the white house), it seems reasonable to believe that bernie would be able to mobilize that army in a way no other president in the history of our country has done (i.e., using the bully pulpit to galvanize public support and calling for mass acts of civil disobedience to force action from oyster republicans).

    just because o'reilly says something, that doesn't make it true.

    bernie will get republicans to vote for him if he makes it to a general.

    his test is right now. if we prevail, this penetrating thing is a wrap.

    oh, and fyi, i just became precinct captain for the upcoming caucus. 22 delegates up for grab and i'm personally going to make sure that bernie wins by 12/10 minimum.

    i'm thinking that i'll get some hillary supporters to jump ship when i get to make my pitch (precinct captains get to give short speech to try and sway the other side).

    You should let us proofread your little speech so we can add or delete the expletives. If you speech write like you do
    here, you won't be captain for long.

    a lot of things work if you ignore the math. In that context raising minimum wage to $100 an hour would "work."

    War on drugs: spend billions of dollars to hire guys from Academi (used to be Blackwater) to guard opium in Afghanistan; only to spend billions of dollars arresting people using and selling the same drug in the US, and keeping them in jail.

    How the fuk does that work?
