1st, Paying 2k in taxes and getting a refund is not a tax break, it's taking money from one person that can invest 50 cents in a rubber and giving it to someone that refuses you.
Sammie Lee, I respect everyone that works even if they are not paid well.. Been there, done it and I scratched, clawed, sacrificed to get to where I am. I would have gotten there a lot quicker if I wasn't supporting everyone else's good time.
But we are getting off topic this is about the 10th amendment....
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
I do not dismiss that a lot of people in this country want to have their taxes raised and want to support the poverty stricken breeders that have not discovered the miracle of birth control. There is a way to get what they want... You get together and do all this stuff on the state level... I believe Massachusettes already has healthcare for everyone... Why don't people just move there or ask their state legislature to enact similar programs. For the Federal government to do this is illegal and tyranny. That is why I will be at the TEA party, not because I am racist or ignorant.
