Title: So, need some help
Post by: "storm"nut on November 07, 2012, 08:05:59 AM
How can I become part of the 47%? I don't know if I want to work any more, pay taxes, and have the 47% come in and by Cigarettes with my Tax money. Why should I work harder so that the government can take more of my money. Money that I would rather give to my church and other civic organizations. Semi-serious.

People that think like this are being bashed for being racists.  Not surprisingly they are being bashed by people who work little or not at all.

If you are working "hard" you are doing it all wrong. Just work smart instead.

yes. that's why stormy just said he was semi-serious and not really serious. he's just a lot of hot air and won't actually follow through with this plan. maybe he's too lazy, maybe he's not smart enough to figure out how to do it, maybe he isn't really serious about wanting to live the good life of not working and getting all that free money. just imo though, prove me wrong stormy!

I am pretty damn lazy, just not the right kind of lazy to pull this off.  Yea I am just venting a lot. Call me full of hot air all you want. But I do have to find it appealing to sit on my ass all day, playing WOW and have the government pay for it.

You kidding right, as part of 47% it is my right to have the government run a fiber to the curb line to my house and a minimum of a 10Gibit connection. And I will not pay a dime for my OBAMANET.

Sounds like a poor who gets either a shitton of welfare, tax breaks, and/or subsidies but don't think they are one of "those people."

I'm not a poor and I want to pay more in taxes if it helps people like you.  I can't take this cash with me and I only get so much vacation time.

Let me be clear MIR, I am all for the Government and my tax dollars going to people that need help and threw no fault of there own are on hard times or can not work due in part of a legit disability. These people need help and I am all for it. But I have a really tough time seeing my tax dollars helping people that appear to be perfectly able to be a productive member of society receive cradle to grave handouts. If you are okay with this, then that is your prerogative, but not mine.

PROTIP:  The reason you can't figure out how to become one of these people yourself is because there is no government program for folks sitting at home, doing nothing and cashing government checks.  These folks are disabled vets, or retirees, or work-to-welfare folks (who have to work, sorry) -- or something like that.  And even then you only get a pittance.

But go ahead, try it.  And please do post your efforts in this thread.

EDIT:  I forgot to note that the 47% of "non-taxpayers" also includes super rich folks with dividend income only and smart tax dodges.  Aim for that.

Where do you draw that line, how do you or anyone else determines who really needs help and who is getting a handout?  Me, I'm happy to have lots of things, it helps my happiness and peace of mind to keep my nose out of other people's business so I don't have to worry about who is worthy or not.  That's quite a burden, you'll feel better if you free yourself from it.

Then I'm going to log onto the Obamanet and play some World of Warcraft while chowing down on some cheetos (food stamp purchased).

so medicaid/medicare cost this country a whole lot more than the unemployment benefits and supposedly worthwhile tax exemptions that poor people receive. shouldn't conservatives be harping on the obese who are destined to develop diabetes the same way they go after the lazy and unintelligent? do they not because it just plain isn't polite to call someone fat?

what i'm trying to say is, stormnut would be better served in his effort to take advantage of the government by eating himself to kidney failure rather than simply getting fired.
