   Uh, I don’t want or need your money.

   Who are we really talking about here?

   Because they are socialists and socialists are basically thieves. They believe in wealth redistribution. (Take money away from hardworking people and then give it to themselves.)

   Cuba’s Castro is worth $900 million. And he didn’t get that rich from being a capitalist.

   All communist and socialist leaders around the world lived like kings. The USSR’s Lenin and China’s Mao became extremely wealthy. China’s last president Jiang Zemin has millions in swiss bank accounts. (Hillary and Obama are socialists.)

   Keep your money. Just pay your taxes to the government that creates the environment that allows you to make a profit.

   P.S. Who are you kidding? If you had a million in the first place, you’d be on the beach wasting it.

   If you stop using the benefits this country provides, we’ll stop asking you to pay taxes. But if you want safety or security, then you must pay for it.

   because they failed in life and expect us to pay for them

   I don’t think there is a country in the world that wouldn’t take a cut. You need a society to have wealth. Otherwise some thug can hit you over the head and take your wealth. The very dollars you have cost money to make. Do you think that money grows on trees? I’m a fiscal conservative, but you are taking the argument to an extreme.

   Most inventions are funded by the government and the people as that is where people who want to run experiments go for a handout, then want to claim everything for themselves.

   And even if you did invent something, I have no problem with you keeping all the profits, as long as you paid all the bills and paid all of those who manufacture it! I guess you think they should work for free because YOU invented something?

   I think the government thinks they deserve a cut of your profits (that you claim after your trips to Bermuda, houses and cars) and I would not call them “Leftist”!

   Because we are citizens of the United States, and your (other other people’s) taxes provide the services we all enjoy.

   Or perhaps you would rather live in a world without paved roads, clean water and air, cheap transportation, fire and police services, hospitals, safe cars, safe food etc. etc. etc.

   Or maybe you could live in a world without the armed forces (which is where 60% of your taxes go).

Not all lefts think they deserve “your” money, Not all “reps” are rich, not all “Dems are poor. etc bunch of fools, go ahead have my answer deleted “tools”.
