Interesting watching Joe Scab attempt to reframe the tax increase discussion
Edited on Tue Sep-27-11 06:25 AM by Atman
It's one thing to raise taxes on millionaires, but it's unfair to those making $250,000...

...and have five kids and live in New York City.

WTF? So that's where the line is now? People with five kids in NYC? Seriously? If you can't afford to live in NYC, move.

1. And when the roads and bridges are fixed...
those that did not want to pay taxes can take the dirt road detour down by the river...

You can be single living in NY City making 250 and still be broke.

3. Correct. So move.
City taxes and state taxes on top of sky-high sales taxes, gas taxes (if for some reason you have a car)...it is a very, very expensive place to live. So no one else should have to pay because some people choose to live in one of the most expensive places on earth?

4. Agree
I'd love to live large in NY...

But I'd rather live larger in a cheaper place and visit NY.
