Union pulls support for Obamacare, a sign of things to come?

[.blank cd]

A portion of my pay is taken from my paycheck without my prior authorization and if I dont file the proper paperwork at the end of the year I can be sent to jail. How is that NOT using force to collect?

Because you're giving it to them. You've already authorized it. Do you not sign W4's at the end of the year?

The American people were also only told it would only affect the evil rich people when they said they wanted it. Today, it isnt much of a leap of faith to think that a lot of the people that say the like it say that because they dont see or understand a better way of taxation. I have no proof of this, but it isnt much of a stretch to think people fear the unknown over the known.

They were also told it would provide for things like your retirement, healthcare should you need it, assistance should you need it, and they were told it would affect everyone. I guess it isnt much of a leap of faith to think that people believe 20% of their paycheck is a small price to pay for the myriad of services the government provides for you, and that you enjoy.

So what do you call it when you take something from me and give it to someone else?

You mean when you give something to me and I give it to someone else?

Where is this form I signed saying I wanted to pay 11k in net taxes this year while someone else was given 5k in net tax money?

I have seriously considered it. In the end though, this is still the best and most stable country in the world. For all of its faults, it still provides the most freedom while still providing the highest level of safety and security.

Thanks, taxes! LOL
