In 1776, the US fought a war of independence against a tyrannical leader who taxed them without representation.
In 2012, the US president promised to raise taxes, and bypass the elected representatives of the American people. But first he wants to confiscate our guns, to avoid suffering the same fate.
taxes were raised on the top 1%, that needed to be done. has your gun been confiscated yet?
You are as bright as the British in 1776.
Or the British in the era of 1936 – 1939…
My taxes went up. I am not anywhere near the top 1%.
Please do not speak about that which you have no clue. It makes you look stupid.
PatN, if you can’t post something either A) truthful, or B) intelligent, don’t post anything at all.
Raising taxes on the top 1% to reduce the national money burn is as effective as pissing on a forest fire. Cut off the fuel to kill the burn, stop spending the money.
Stop giving them money to spend
So, confiscating even more money from people who have it is ok because that needed to be done? Theft with good intentions is still theft, which ,last time I checked, is still a crime, regardless of who perpetrates it. Go educate yourself before formulating a response, otherwise, STFU!

I visited the USSR in 1980 in order to:
1. Present the plenary lecture on the birth of the Solar System from a solar explosion:
“Heterogeneity of isotopic and elemental compositions in meteorites: Evidence of local synthesis of the elements “, Geokhimiya (12) 1776-1801 (1981) [In Russian].
2. See for myself if the USSR was like that described by the USA news media.
The oppressiveness that I felt there in 1980 is very much like the oppressiveness I feel in the United States today, except George Orwell’s book, “1984” [1], was banned in the USSR in 1980. It is still available in the USA today:

The lives of George Orwell and Sir Fred Hoyle in the post-WWII era suggest that Western science became a tool of government propaganda in 1946:

He will meet the same fate as the British… I guarantee it…
