Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

One of the many quaint beliefs the Left has about the US is that it's a relatively low-tax country

    Medicare and Social Security are entitlements. How did you not know that, Gasbag?

    If you are a taker, sure. If you have paid into it at gunpoint far more than you are taking out, for some reason, I don't feel entitled. Words actually have meaning.

    Words do have meaning. You should learn what an entitlement is.

    I don't remember any guns being pointed at me, but I paid in too. I had no idea your feelings could change the meaning of words.

    Better?

    Good for you. And if you didn't, they come and arrest you and they carry guns. You seem pretty stupid and unaware for a supposed attorney.

    A meltdown to match Biden's

    Again, if I’m going to be the topic all the time, I need to get paid, Stalin.
    You're wrong. And your answer to examples of high taxes in the US were to say they're bullshit, and then next to just say 'Well, move then'.
    This began with a bunch of hysteria over how high your taxes are and continues with hypotheticals about how much someone could conceivably pay. Damone is the exception, but he either can’t do math or is lying his ass off.

    No. It began with a tweet that triggered you.
    Feel free to read it again if you like. All you've done with us is call us gals and then mock us. Note that I haven't done the same to you. There is no dispute that the US isn't a low tax country. Plenty of examples for that. And there isn't a dispute that the fucked up system of local and federal governments misuse the funds they get and just keep asking for more. How many millions of dollars are wasted by Seattle, San Francsisco and other cities on 'the homeless' and yet we just keep hearing how more taxes will fix it. Damone's not lying.
    A tweet about SF and NY. The only two places anyone can live in the United States.
    So you're not disputing anything. And you want everyone in those states to move.
    People who voluntarily pay higher taxes must not think taxes are so high that they should leave.
    Why are so many leaving then? Evidently shitty attorney aren't fleeing but most everyone else is. We're taking up a collection for occupation checks at our border.

    If there are "so many leaving", seems like California will have to consider policy changes. I'm all for people voting with their feet. LIPO

    Sort of like Detroit. In 1960 Detroit was the wealthiest US city with more millionaires that New York City. Then it wasn't. Seems like a weird thing to root for but then that's why your the dazzler.
