If life was fair we wouldn't of had Clinton and Trump on the ballot in 2016...and Asian hookers would charge friendly fred double! Originally Posted by WTF

There's nothing more depressing than a sexy, petite Asian hooker with a huge, stretched out vagina.

Considering I pay the prettiest, skinny and sexiest hookers $400 per hour, I'm sure I can afford the going rate.

I don't think you should get taxes back for having kids in the first place. Remember that lie trump said about doing taxes on a postcard lol. Promises kept Ha.

And while it's a good discussion, the actual percentage of tax revenue in discussion here is small as it's the upper earners currently shouldering the largest burden of tax revenue.

And lastly, the little dig at the post card is a good one. At least Trump attempted that much reform.

It does have fewer lines, 23. The current 1040 form has 79. But people will still be required to file several pages of worksheets if they wish to itemize deductions.
But the postcard is truly not possible without major tax reform as I'm proposing.

And at least it wasn't the Dem's version of the postcard.

You ignore renters and people who just happen to live together. Not everyone under a single roof is a "family" unit.

Taxing by address is one of the most ridiculous proposals I've ever heard for the tax system.

I said nothing about taxing by address.

Some time ago, people floated an idea called the fair tax, which was a sales tax that would replace the income tax. The government would send a rebate check to everyone, with credit given for children. The check would be the same for everyone, whether they're homeless or millionaires. The effect would be that the poor would get a check equal to the estimated amount they would have spent on the tax. You could jigger this around, and by perhaps giving more credit to children do something about childhood poverty.

Anyway this would be much simpler than what we've got now and eliminate a lot of fraud and gaming of the system. I'd guess over $100 billion per year would be saved on the cost of complying with tax regulations. Switching from an income based tax to a consumption based tax would supercharge investment and in the long run make the country more prosperous.

He likes to cry about Mexicans yet he loves cheap illega6asian hookers!

Yes, any concept of "matching addresses" is ridiculous at face value. Consider divorce, separation, etc. And the tax code today already "requires" as CLOSE family relationship and almost every example that was given matches that CLOSE family relationship.

Also, the majority of the examples are more closely related to the Child Tax Credit than the Earned Income Credit, which again raises the question of why such a convoluted tax system?

because he's not that wealthy. just it's that simple. Jackie and others have pointed it out. first there's no law so no secrecy and as president he does need to submit info. debt to equity he's maybe not even a billionaire which is why he doesn't want his returns public.


he claims as much as 8-10 B Forbes give him 3 B now..
