Reply to "President Obama's tax cuts/increases"

Hey guys thanks for holding back....

I read this whay back when I was in university (college) so I hope I can quote it right. After the war many were seeking social assistance in the Montreal area. The mayor at the time found a solution and these people were asked to assist in building the Montreal Botanical gardens as unemployment insurance did not exist at the time. Today, these public gardens are amazing. The mayor helped people to stay proud and their efforts are still for everyone to see 60 years later. Unfortunately today I know of people working for cash and then trying to get either social assitance or unemployment insurance and even workmen's compensation. Simply not fair.

As to participating in UI, SS and other social security nets, admitedly it may not sound fair or you may never use it but that's par for the game.

As shown by Larry's charts the Govmt has a specific required budget. If the corporations don't pay it or if you let those corporations have headquarters in Japan(car companies) or in Switzerland (EvilGay) or in Barbados Oceanliners)or..any other country period.
Tax revenue has to come from somewhere.
