Genuinely poor pay no taxes.

I speak of the vastly greater majority of working poor.

Like a young lady I knew raising a kid 
working in unairconconditioned industrial manufacturing sweat shop
working conditions for 10 - 20 cents about minimum wage.

These folks vastly outnumber the poor who pay no taxes however you would
not know this to listen to the main stream media who are in turn owned
and controlled by the obscenely wealthy.

I was the envy of many in that particular work environment in this right to 
work state as I made some three times what those workers sharing that
production floor as a I worked as a printer.

By the numbers however I was still working about 50 percent above 
the poverty level.

Inflame and divert attention.
This is the game the main stream media plays.
It serves *their* interests.

Again, those information venue owned by the wealthy seek to deceive 
to serve their own coporate and personal self interests and a 
fine way to do this is to seek out hot button emotionally charged issues to
inflame the public.

If their is one thing I've learned in this life it is that once you've grabbed
someones attention emotionally their rational reasoning goes out the window.

The obscenely wealthy count upon and use this in their self interest.

There are of course a few poor who abuse the system but living poor on the dole
is hardly the cake walk party some describe it to be.

The outrage of the Glenn Beck's of this world does not bear close scrutiny
and examination when you look at their income and lifestyle while they rip off
promote ripping off of the general public.

Personally I once knew ONE woman who went out intentionally getting pregnant
in order to get more and more government benefits.
My feeling toward her cannot be expressed without profanity as
was always the case but then she is but one.

At any rate the poor who pay no taxes and any meager benefits they do in 
fact receive amount to squat as compared to corporations like Exxon - Mobil
who receive millions and billions in subsidies and government perks
while raking in record profits and paying no taxes at all.

Halliburton worse.
War for profit.
No war?
Drum one up.

The taxes Exxon - Mobil does not pay everyone else does.

Propaganda WORKS.

Enlarge your intellectual horizons today, whenever you find yourself 
getting angry at an issue that upsets you step back, cool off and investigate
that issue from an unbiased perspective with unbiased souces.

The vast majority of the  masses are quite easily swayed and the 
tools and techniques to do so are well known.

Familiarize yourself with these and examine what you are told through 
enlightened eyes and you will both enlighten as well as empower yourself.

Look to where Halliburton's corporate headquarters moved to.

No taxes as such there.

Perhaps if you researched where Halliburton's obscene profits came
from and how much of that was fraud and waste this would upset you
just a tiny bit more than some rare unnamed someone gaming the system
and living off the taxpayer on something like 7k a year?

For a listing of obscene profits all in one place see the DVD "Iraq for
Sale."

Now that is a very politically liberal source however if you *only* take
away the volume and names of the corporations named in that decidedly
left wing documentary you will have really gained some insight into 
how we've all been manipulated.

And continue to be manipulated while many of us strenuously defend
those most abusing us.

 

... It is the best of all possible worlds.
