We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

How about staying on topic? Why should I pay significantly more in taxes but receive less from those taxes? The bottom 50% should pick up the slack and pay their way.
I pay my fair share.
What is a bad faith argument is claiming that paying more than double isn't their fair share. In Europe, the McDonald's worker would still be paying a large portion of that in taxes. In America, they would pay next to zero. Pro-America means everyone would pay their fair share, and 90% of Americans do not pay their fair share. Conservatives are about paying your fair share and not being a leech on society. Liberals think everyone else should pay their way.
