Approximately 45% drop out of college NOW and never get a degree, and they are actually paying for going? What do you think the drop out rate will be when college is FREE??

You think that when the government subsidizes college, there are suddenly more spaces open at decent colleges ? The government needs to not pay it for people that can't either get in to a good public University of better, or get good grades at a good community college (which isn't that much cost to subsidize anyway).

School have limits on the number of students, and they have admissions requirements. With subsidies, admission requirements could possibly even go up. As it is now, a majority of students at all capable of going to college, or some sort of training after high school, do so.

So, if all these kids get affordable college costs from Bernie, where will they go to school? How is Bernie going to fix the shortage problem? Will he build more colleges too??

IT's not as much about more going as it is people taking on less debt to go.

You going to tell us how much you paid in income taxes last year or are you just going to keep acting like a Female dog.

Silver Spoon Trump hasn't paid any taxes for years!
To prove me wrong,show the tax returns.

Trump says 'only suckas pay taxes'. Smart people avoid 'em.

APO,see what you started with Ceffer.
Hope your happy! Lmao

Ironman says

Many Americans discovered they don’t owe the government a dime.

Care to talk about historical tax rate trends and the differences, historically, between taxes on income from wages versus income from investments?

Do you think that has lead to the wealth disparity we see now, or is it only the general crumble of America due to it shirking traditional values for cis-gender-unicorn-snowflakenomics?

Ironman says

Compared to you being part of that 44%?

I'm not, but you haven't denied it...

Ironman says

Are those tax dollars a different color green?

No different color. Very different rates.

What about the effective tax rate for those making 400K versus those making 10,000K?

Ironman says

More than four in 10 American households (44.3%) — or upwards of 76 million — didn’t pay any income tax to the federal government last year,

It is amazing the 44.3% of households don't make enough money to owe taxes. That's terrible. Where is the outrage? What is trump going to do about this?

It's crazy that the top 50% pay 97% of the taxes. We really need to get back to historical norms of the 1950's and 1960's where the top 50% payed 95% of the taxes. It's outrageous how much more the top 50% pay today.

Ironman says

Many Americans discovered they don’t owe the government a dime.

That's a bit misleading. The federal government charges Social Security and Medicare taxes, subscriber line fees, import duties, excise taxes, estate taxes, etc. Also, with two Presidents in a row doubling the national debt, the living owe more and more every year.

The personal income tax should probably be replaced with pollution fees, other taxes (land value, estates, corporate income), import duties, excises on property insurance, etc. Personal taxes become inevitably too invasive, but that's now apparently the point: Total Information Awareness thinly disguised as revenue.

I wonder what role Putin played in all this?

Maddow probably won't cover that tonight, she'll be too busy connecting Ossoff's defeat to the Kremlin.

Love how you just ask questions and never take a stance. Cute.

Ironman says

What actually pays the bills in the country, tax "rates" or tax "dollars"?

Tax dollars pay it, and how and where those dollars come from are determined by the tax rates. So the answer, to your BS question, is "both".

Historically, rates haven't been this low since almost just prior to the great depression. (Gosh what was that whole Depressioney thing caused by again?)

So while the "rich" do pay most of the tax, they are paying FAR LESS than historical norms. The middle is paying heavily and shrinking. Income inequality has skyrocketed. Less brackets and progressive stratification of the tax system as well. We can make it far simpler and far more progressive than it is.

How much Zero Hedge shapes your world view?

I'll expect you reply with only more questions, as above. It's kind of a shame you don't go learn for yourself or contribute more to your own thread. But, it's safer to just ask questions though, and not take an actual stance, isn't it? (ironic question in more ways than one)

It's also far safer to be against something rather than for something. Trump is learning this bigly.

WAH! WAH! WAH!
He brought it on himself!

What was that about pissing off people?

Awwww. No replies to my points.

Remember, Obama was a rescue from oblivion and into slow stable economic growth.

You mean Trump is going to fix it? Awesome. What's he going to do? Lower corporate tax rate and rate on the top 1%? Peerrrrrfect.

Ironman says

Fucking slacker..... 3 MONTHS....

Sorry, is he back from golf yet?

Does he even know what tax bill he is proposing yet?

It must really suck to be being compared to Obama's first 100 days. It's going to be bloody.

Oh noes! The enemy is so unfair!
Why is the enemy attacking me?

Why does Trump take no personal responsibility for what he sows? Why do these people whine for him?

Ironman says

Did you forget what state I live in?

Did you pay federal income tax or not this year?

Liberal propaganda machine at work. Party of failure.

Ironman says

Do you want me to give your stupid question a stupid answer?

Your choice. You can answer a simple question or keep dodging it and pretending no one notices.

Did someone say putin?

Well you did provide an easy set up.

FortWayne ... we haven't even begun to see the full failings of Trump yet. Buckle up.

Ironman says

Of course I paid Federal income taxes

How much income tax are we talking here? Did you pay your fair share in real dollars, not percentages?

Cannot wait for Colbert and Stewart on this.

Ironman says

Is there a point you're trying to make?

Trying to see if you are pulling your own weight or if you are actually part of the group you are complaining about.

The fair share is about $10k for you and your wife.

Ironman says

What if I paid way more than that?

If you paid way more in federal income tax - not all the other taxes, you get a cookie and a congratulations.
Otherwise, you get a haha!
Which will it be?

Ironman says

STUDY: 89% of Media Negative Towards President Trump

This shows how far to right wing our media has drifted. If the media were more honest, it would be closer to 100%.

Trump intentionally lies and worse almost constantly to get negative coverage so that he can say the media is "fake news" giving him the right to ignore them. We already have no media check on the executive becasue of the degree to which he tries to train us to believe that there is no such thing as truth or facts. That way when he does something really really bad, you know, like putting a climate change denier in charge of the EPA, or a private vouchers and charter schools advocate in charge of education policy, we will feel like it's just like any other day in the Trump Presidency.

Some call it brilliance, others call it pure evil.

Ironman says

Wasn't your question FEDERAL income tax only?

Yes, but that doesn't mean that it's the question you chose to pretend to answer. That's why I was verifying.

Wow, you really showed me.

Ironman says

There should be a YuuGGeee outrage. After all, Obama created MILLIONS of jobs, raised hourly wages, grew the stock market, saved us all $2500 on our health insurance premiums, so there should be TONS more taxpayers.... right???

Oops.....

There really should be TONS more taxpayers. The percentage of taxpayers is almost the same since WWII. The last 70 years are all Obama's fault. Everyone knows that.

Of course since I shit canned the Television years ago, I'll just think it's funny as hell. When Trump shuts down all Television and only allows State ran Television.
I still wouldn't buy another TV, so it would be you guys problem. Haha!!!

I would prefer Trump to do the God damned cramming down our throats for a while Thank you very much, Liberal Pulp has gotten a tad grissely.

Does this mean we have to watch thousands of reruns of the Zapruder film while Kennedy's head goes "splat"?

Liddy is appropriately sociopathic and pathologically attention seeking for the role, however.

They have hired a forensics crime scene cleaning company to get the buckets of jizz out of the carpet, off the walls and ceiling, the phones, desks, chairs, mknitors and other places and things within the Faux News Studios.

Beating up random airline passengers is a ratings bonanza right now. The next big thing in reality TV: any time an airline needs to clear some seats, a Faux Noise team of WWF wrestlers will grab the designated passengers, hurl them around like a Popeye cartoon, snap the necks, and drag the bloodied corpses off the plane. Synergies galore amid the gore: the Murdochs' media empire will have the first news crew on the scene of every lead story, plus the movie and book rights, including exclusive rights to the entire biography of every passenger. It's all in the contract of carriage, and coming soon to a plane and theater near you. It could even be the in flight movie, keeping the passengers on other flights in line.
