Free medical care and free education programs..





With all these socialist things america.. Living in ignorance and misery is a choice..


These are usually for people that make under the poverty line. AKA low middle to middle class gets excluded.


What is the poverty line?



How much can you earn in a year and still be considered poor.


The national one varies depending on how many are in the household.



1 person = $12,490

2 person = $16,910

3 person = $21,330

The ultra wealthy in America constantly complain that the top marginal tax rate for them is too high. I believe its less than 38%?

Yet in Hitler's Germany which has been acclaimed as one of the most economically successful nations in history, he raised the taxes of the wealthy to at least 50%. Yet, they supported him. All those ballyhooed public works projects Trump has proposed take money and taxes. He shouldlearn from his ideological mentor Adolph.



Anyways under H, every German had free state subsidized healthcare, funded partially by the higher marginal tax rate he imposed on the rich. Tho evil, Hitler has been portrayed as a fascist while many of his social policies were socialist including free healthcare


But since we make more money Joe, I think it's only fair we reside our business in Hong Kong or Ireland.  I really believe the middle and lower class shouldn't pay anymore than 18% too, other wise it's nothing but just theft.  ac_drinks

Raising taxes on the wealthier citizens does not raise revenue the way it's proponents foolishly claim. Former French President Hollande found that out. Justine said raising the top tax bracket would generate three billion bucks, but it actually left a hole of $4.6 billion in the first year.

As Churchill said, raising taxes to create wealth is like trying to lift yourself up in a bucket, whilst standing in it.

It's amazing every generation of politicians think they can make that mistake and get a different result.

Real hardcore capitalists are rats who are not loyal to anything but the almighty dollar.



They are a bunch of deceitful, greedy wastes of skin whom would sell their own mother.





Sacrificing entire nations in the pursuit of personal gratification.





They do not build anything that lasts.

Hitler got workers to pre-buy VW... every payday a percentage of their pays went towards paying off their VW on the factory line... then when war broke out, he confiscated the VW for the army so the worker got bugger all.





Initially Hitler was a good leader for the German people from what I've read. The treaty of Versailles was truly crippling for Germany. Hitler got people working for the dole by planting trees in the forests, the Hitler Youth... stuff like that BUT he was NOT a good guy at all. Maybe he was a victim of "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men."- John Emerich Edward Dalberg Acton, first Baron Acton (1834–1902).



He murdered 6,000 out of 10,000 Christian Bible Students because they wouldn't pledge allegence to the Nazi Party. Jews weren't the only victims and many artists had to escape to America to avoid being killed in Hitler's Germany.





Good people do not do that.

Hitler made sure broke Germains got shoes for their children...It was really dire in Germany before Hitler came along BUT if you ever see the movie, "Escape from Sobibor" you'll realize where the shoes came from.



You don't hear of or see that movie these days, I wonder why?

Yeah but I was thinking more like buy a couple of cheapies for your kids...



The Italians where I live were clever 30 years ago investing in real estatefor their kids... But it's not going to get better.





We'll have to do a realestate thread soon... not today but I'll start one in a few weeks when I'm not so busy.

I hope I can survive until then financially, while I await your expertise in yet another area I know much better than you do.
