The simple tax:

[oldtime]

Quote from BSAM:

In your post that I quoted you said, "Nobody should have to pay any taxes until they have got their feet on the ground and are finally making more than they need to stay out of poverty."

Again: Freedom ain't free; not for the rich nor for the poor.

if we ever get in a war to defend freedom (not these wars to enhance the position of our corporations) I'm sure it will be as it always has been and is now, the poor don't get exempted from fighting on the front lines and dying just because they didn't pay taxes. Let those that are too old to fight (and presumably better off financially) pay for the bombs.
