if we're a sovereign nation, we're going to need a tax system

[sniffa]

being tax and spenders we are, i'm thinking a 69% income tax across the board. it'LL wiLL heLp to pay for everyone's entitLements.

vote sniffa as ayatoLLah of the Lounge.

[SPKrazy]

1. no taxes

grovelbot will collect "fees"

donations rather

no taxes though

:P

[sniffa]

9. we'LL compromise

mandatory donations at 69% rate. how's that?

[Beer Snob-50]

2. as a true democrat

you earn it-we take it in taxes

[sniffa]

4. but Look at it this way

sure you're paying 69% of your income to the Lounge government, but you don't have to work because you get to be on weLfare.

it makes perfect sense.

[Beer Snob-50]

6. do most of us actually work in the lounge?

most seem to just surf all day.

[sniffa]

10. surfing's work

how do you think i went on disabiLity from carpaL tunneL system? the scroLLing and typing is quite taxing.

3. If I'm going to pay 69% of my income in taxes

then I want the hookers to be employed by the state.

[sniffa]

5. that's fair

but the state wiLL not pay for their abortions. for that, we'LL need to bump it to 70%.

[bicentennial_baby]

11. general hookers?

:D

[billyskank]

13. Yes.

We know where they go. :D

[bicentennial_baby]

14. Yes! They have their own entrance!

Fetishists need not apply!

:rofl:

[MrCoffee]

7. you better plan on providing socialized medicine

none of this single-payer national health care crap. i want socialized medicine, and i want it now!

gimme what they gave Lenin.

[sniffa]

12. sorry, you're on your own

the government wiLL suppLy free daycare though, so you got that going for you.

[jakefrep]

8. Forget taxes....

...let's nationalize Delaware's tollbooths.

That, plus sending Grovelbot to collect tolls from the trolls in GD, should provide more than enough revenue to finance a lavish welfare state.

[azmouse]

15. No taxes needed. We'll get Donald Trump's money making CD

and we'll be filthy rich! :7
