Youngcoach123 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I heard the fed charged a lot of people in January for the next years predicted taxes also. Which could attribute to the large increase. Plus all the one time money transfers to the US from global companies with US home based. My employer moved 425 million from overseas to US this month for example. A builder friend of mine payed 66k in January for 2018 taxes.

Mr. P Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Yeah, I gotta admit, I don't understand the dust-up over this. Why is money (on a card) for food so much better than just food itself? "I should have the right to buy whatever food I want!" You're absolutely right. But why should taxpayers subsidize your Doritos and Dr. Pepper? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveTV1 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 The only way the tax cuts are highway robbery is the Government isn't going to stealing as much from taxpayers. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveTV1 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 They'll get their funding just as they have every other time. Â I can't remember how many times I've heard this now.

DaveTV1 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I'd be all for this, but I have a problem with spoilage.  I think that we should use the excess of the farms that we pay to plow perfectly good crops so they don't make it to the market place could be used for feeding Americans.  I've read about this, and it even happened during the Depression when people needed the food the most.  This is an interesting article on surplus food in the 80's and how it went to nothing in the 00's.   http://abcnews.go.com/Business/story?id=4770135&page=1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until then, I don’t see where they need anything more than 1% milk, processed cheese, pressed ham, pinto beans, corn meal, flour, potatoes, and eggs. If they want sodas, chips and frozen pizza, they can get a job. If they want steaks, they need to get a good job. It’s not my responsibility to feed people who refuse to work. If they have a disability, it’s different. Being lazy is not a disability. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirtFalcon Posted February 14, 2018 Author Share Posted February 14, 2018 Food stamps should only be used for basic food staples, baby food, etc ..... There is so much fraud and abuse it's ridiculous ... The TANF assistance program allows recipients to use their "Lone Star Card" to get cash payments and they can use it in ATM machines to get cash ... I have seen people using their LS card get cash and then go over and play video poker with the money ... tru storie ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideliner Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Exactly. Pointing out the last big tax cut was followed a few years later with big tax increases. Might want to check with the state of Kansas and see how those big tax cuts are doing for them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and your liberal bizarre world are oblivious to all the people across America that are benefiting from the tax cuts. This is going to be huge for Trump and the republicans winning reelection in 2018 and 2020 ... just keep your head buried up CNN's lying rear end ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
