Pay for it locally or nationaly I dont care you guys should be paying more if the majority is asking for things that can't be afforded at the current tax rate.
I also said that I would vote for a 10% flat tax hike to every person paying income tax to cover medical insurance for everyone. I would also rather have just a flat tax also. I don't like the tax tiers that we have now, it causes class warfare.
I would agree with that too
Start wars? we are not the only ones to start a war. Believe it or not, we were attacked on 9/11... ( I don't believe that we should still be there now)Isn't Canada in Afghanistan and Iraq with us?
We didn't start WW2 or WW1, but we came to the aid of the allies when it was needed. But we are also the country that other countries come calling on if the sh*t hits the fan.
I never said the US is the only country that does start wars. I also don't think we need to derail this thread with what wars are right or wrong. My only statement is that if the US wants wars they have to pay for it. I will take back my "start wars" wording as that is another topic in which you and | probably agree 90%. But again you can't play the role of Global Cop without paying for it.
PS: we are not "officially" in Irag

Yeah, and Vietnam was a "conflict"
I agree about having to pay for being the worlds police, but we still are the country that others look to for guidance and help when something happens either military or a natural disaster. But then we get bashed all the time for being "war Mongers".
War is a necessary evil, I don't like war but we will always have war when people cant agree. It just in our human nature.
