Published: 07 December, 2011, 19:51

On Monday, November 28 a small cadre of Senate Democrats introduced legislation intended to extend and expand the payroll tax cut first introduced by the Jobs Creation Act of 2010. The Middle Class Tax Cut Act of 2011 (S.1917) – drafted chiefly by the Chair of the Joint Economic Committee , Senator Bob Casey (D-PA)— was summarily rejected by Republicans late last week.

I believe that when I worked I could have paid more taxes.  I sound stupid saying this, but my needs were met and I still received back 1000 a year or more that could have gone to education or anything else, roads.  If I worked now, I'd donate it to the roads because I get around by bicycle, and I hate all hte potholes.  I don't believe destroying the rich's beautiful things, and they do with their resources create wonders, will help our nation.  Not only but you can't take too much of their money because they're locked in a status system where they have to buy this or that to keep their jobs.  Bill Gates can't live in my community due to the need for security he has to buy, etc.  I believe that workers can give a little more and cutback.  Wasting so many resources on ordinary people is only common in the US, and it's a trend that needs to cease due to its inefficient nature.

If only they wouldn't trash us out though with all the issues they cloud us with in this society :(  That's the real problem with being poor here, not the money.  You work in a prison.  You know about the forced "sins" I'm talking about.  It's ridiculous.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQiIZgVNJCM  I'm white trash.  I'm "Girl" by Beck.  I end up with a billion babies and a deadbeat husband that leaves me.  I work at some diner for nothing until I go insane.  Now I'm recovering from all the weapons they decided to try on me to make me do more for less.  No, I have no ambition-leave me alone.  It destroys me at work and everywhere. I will not buy a house and I will not have a family. It's the partnering that destroys me the most.  If there weren't pressures to have a boyfriend or get married or enter into their damn status system that keeps us in our places, I would be a productive worker, I swear to all holy.  I just want to go to a labor camp.

___The only way to have an crises-free country, Install the social-credit system of the economist Clifford Hugh Douglas, apply the Tobin tax on all speculative transactions, limit the salaries bonuses commissions of banksters, traders, brokers, tycoons, leaders of multinationals and government departments, prohibit fiscal heavens, hedge funds.   And production along with employment will come back.
