People are unhappy with the role of govts intrusion into their pocketbooks and that automatically makes us all anti everything that you stand for? (though I dont remember either of you having much tone when I last saw you)

Like Brian said, I'm unclear as to where my government gravy train is. If it came by I surely missed it.

And the last time I saw you was 2007, way before you became DT's 10,000-post voice of the wacko right. I looked for you at Saratoga every time I was there but only found your dad (who I like, by the way). Even if I did see you, the last thing I want to do at the track is spar about politics with a rigid right-wing ideologue. That's time that could be spent losing money.

joey - i think what chuck is trying to say is that you and brian are in the 50% of the population that now pays no federal income tax , i might be reading it wrong and he may have to claify it later

10% of the people are now paying 72% of all federal income taxes

50% pay zero to the federal gov't

lol, wtf?

i'm paying way more than zero to the federal government. maybe not as much as Chuck, but I'm sure paying my share for the money I make.

people with more money pay more taxes, not sure we're covering Income Tax 101 again here, but I'm certainly not one getting handouts and tax-free income...believe it or not, I do have a relatively legitimate day job.

again only trying to put 2 + 2 together , don't know your situation and i can only speculate what chuck thinks you do for a living, i gave an opinion on what he might be thinking based on his post

Fair enough. Still trying to make sense of his comment about J and me getting handouts, too.

I'm assuming no more than most.

I got the same handout everyone got last year, and outside of that, I'm paying them every nickel I owe them....and they're not giving me anything in return really.

Except war, that is....but that's a whole 'nother conversation.
