WE THE PEOPLE TO WE THE PEOPLE

Election 2020 is here. Are you going to vote for increased taxes? When taxes increase your take home pay decreases.

Stop falling for the rich-poor lie. When politicians hurt businesses they hurt you. When they hurt the rich they hurt you. Have you ever checked to see how many poor people own? Have you ever checked to see how many “wealthy” are leaving certain states and even the nation because of government taxes and regulations? And, NO, THEY ARE NOT ALL “GREEDY;” they are tired of being robbed, and forced into survival mode. Survival mode could push them into a subsistence level of living. No one goes into business to take care of the world, and live in near poverty.

And, all businesses and business owners are not the same. Some businesses are large and others a small, but taxes and regulation hurt them all, just in different degrees. Increasing taxes and regulations destroys many small businesses and the jobs these small businesses create. Another thing about businesses is that they compete for our business to come to them. Competition has always increased the quality of products and the salaries a company could pay. This was the way it was until government regulations increased the cost of operating a business. Increased operating cost means decrease in other areas, like salaries and the ability to expand to hire more people. Increased operating cost also increase how much we have to pay for goods, and services.

Democrats plan to increase taxes. Whether they tax business or you, your take home pay will decrease. The other side of this taxation is that it makes it harder for those who want to start a business of their own. Either way taxes hurt working people, and those who dream of owning their own business.

When your take home pay decreases, you have less to do the things that you want to do, and need to do, like send your children to college. Could you reduce and eliminate a lot of your debt if your taxes did not continue to increase? Why should you pay for other people’s children to go to college for free, and then have to take out loans to send your children to college. I am 74 still paying taxes, and still repaying Parent Plus Student Loans. My children also have student loans. There is no way I would vote to increase taxes, especially when there are those who pay little or no taxes; and taxes are being used to support other people’s lifestyle choices, instead of proper things like defense. WORKING AMERICA, certain politicians have made you responsible for things that are not your responsibility. Right now in this pandemic, efforts were made to help working people and businesses, but certain politicians would not agree unless they could fund their friends.

If you have never taken an interest in following the money, now would be a good time to start. If you have never looked into what has been called entitlements, I would suggest that you take a look at what is being charged to you, and what has been taken away from you. Certain politicians buy votes by giving away for free things that you pay for with your labor. You work. You have a family. You obey the law. Before you vote this time, look at what you are being charged with and why your earnings do not go as far as they should to provide for those you are really responsible for, like your family, your children. Don’t let anyone say that you are not compassionate, or that you are selfish. You are not. Americans are the most compassionate giving people in the world. No matter where tragedy strikes, the American people respond. There is a difference between you giving to what you feel compassionate about, and that is your decision. But when certain politicians decide what is important to them, and send us – Working People- the bill, that is stealing. REMEMBER, THE GOVERNMENT HAS NO MONEY. IT TAKES IT FROM US – THE WORKING PEOPLE. FOLLOW THE MONEY – YOURS AND THEIRS, AND VOTE ACCORDINGLY.
