@LvChris Not at all. It could be 20 of tens of millions. If the majority wanted it the libs would have rammed it through when they controlled Government. Instead we got that abortion barry care.

@TheProphet I'm fine with big tax increases as long as that money goes to services the public needs . Such as health care ! Everybody needs healthcare ,especially affordable health care
TheProphet · M
@SW-User Unfortunately you only want those of us who are successful and wealthy to pay higher taxes.
SW-User
@TheProphet um , what ?
TheProphet · M
@SW-User That's all libs want is for the rich to pay more. More than half the population pays zero taxes.
SW-User
@TheProphet and what's wrong with the wealthy paying more ? They certainly can afford it ... what on earth are you talking about ? Everyone has to pay taxes .
TheProphet · M
@SW-User Everyone does not pay taxes. Why should we pay more? Do we get more benefits than others? We don't. We pay way more than our fair share.

Gee, I was raised where the right thing to do was to help those who are less fortunate....I'm sorry I just don't understand your mindset ... @TheProphet

@SW-User I prefer choosing the charities I give my money too. When the Government steals our money they take away our ability to be charitable..
