We make it relevant by using facts and figures to prove these chucklenuts for the idiots they are

if they are indeed idiots

Responses:

You misunderstand me. The argument 'we are taxed too much' is an opinion and it is not refuted by the fact that taxes used to (maybe) be higher - ty97 Oct 2, 12:01 6
- That's kind of the point, though. People in 1963 making $400k were taxed at 91%. Today, it's 35% -- nm - Mr. Havens Oct 2, 12:05 4
  - What if I think 20% is the fair number? Then 35% and 91% are both too high IMO. -- nm - ty97 Oct 2, 12:07 3
    - I said prove me wrong, not prove you're an idiot - Mr. Havens Oct 2, 12:09 2
      - But I didn't say you were wrong, I just said you were on the wrong bus. -- nm - ty97 Oct 2, 12:12 1
        
        FWIW: I think he's on the wrong board -- nm - Qale Oct 2, 12:13
- (more) So if the Tea Party is arguing 'we have never paid more in taxes', absolutely look for facts to refute that. - ty97 Oct 2, 12:02
facts, figures, reason and logic are not in play with the Tea Party -- nm - Epiphany Oct 2, 12:00 5
- and all the cutbacks to education just ensure that the problem will continue to procreate -- nm - Beryllium Oct 2, 12:00 4
  - I do wish spending was the simple answer. -- (link) - Dr.Vermin Oct 2, 12:08 [Image]
  - I am a certified conspiracy theorist - and I firmly believe there has to be some strategy for them in that area - Epiphany Oct 2, 12:07 2
    - (And the *electorate* that we want, too.) - Kim Pine Oct 2, 12:13 1
      - hmmmm -- nm - Epiphany Oct 2, 12:37
