I believe we should add a line on the tax forms and voter registration for "Tea Partier". These people will be denied all government services henceforth, in exchange for not paying taxes. They will only receive "ID" cards not driver licenses, and a special passport class that indicates they receive no assistance abroad if they do some dumbass thing. The reclamation of mobility scooters is an obvious one, but in general they'd need something like a "do not render aid" bracelet so we don't make the mistake of offering them assistance in emergency. The bootstrappy must help themselves.

No one in their right mind is advocating "no government." What thinking people are advocating is LIMITED government. Somehow, people like you and the Duck just can't seem to grasp that idea. No wonder the Founding Fathers are scorned on this site.

Bad Logic.

You quote the founding fathers--->you are scorned. This does not imply that the founding fathers are scorned.

Marcus, the founding fathers may not actually be scorned on this site. Its just that their policies are continually being eroded by politicians.

Truly, we reserve the scorn for students with knowledge but little understanding.

Piety is not what the lessons bring to people, it's the mistake they bring to the lessons.

Good ideas, those are useful. It's nice to attribute who said it, but past that... converting men into demigods and treating their every utterance like platinum, is not useful.

You are so right. YOU are using bad logic. Your statement is silly beyond anything (well almost) that our little Kevin has come up with. That is really saying something.

OK, since liberals are so intent on leveling the playing field, spreading the wealth, and curing Ameica's problems, lets have them voluntarily raise their income tax by 50%. Lets have them put their money where their mouth is. I'm tired of them putting my money where their mouth is.

If you're like me you'll hide your wallet. If your a liberal, why not get out your checkbook , write a big check to the government, send it in, and leave me out of your stupid, empathatic, manipulative, scheme's. I don't want to be FORCED to donate to the charity of YOUR choice.

Pople like Ray/Abe are TWICE as quick to TAKE ADVANTAGE of government
services. "Keep your hands off my MediCare!", spending is A-OK as long
as it's for YOU and you don't have to pay for it. Like the greedy little kid that
wanted all the best toys on their birthday but OOPS forgot to get nice presents
for anyone else.

If the lib's want MY money for THEIR charity, who is the greedy one?

(BTW, you have never seen me say "keep your hands off MediCare", or any other hand out. Everything, including the military, needs to be put in line so the budget balances. America doesn't have a lack of taxes, it has excess spending - its that simple).

Liberals are extremely generous people. They love to give. They feel. They care. They have intense compassion. There's only one problem; all this generosity requires OTHER people's money.

Hahaha - liberal generosity requires OTHER peoples money - haha. That says it all, doesn't it? Well said Mr. America !!

Latest update on the Liberal Give Meter: $ZERO

Latest update on the number of Teabaggers who "Return SS and refuse MediCare":

ZERO

Why return something that has been removed from our paychecks?

I reiterate my offer, to strip you of all rights and privileges of US citizenship, in exchange for not paying any form of taxes. Deal?

I'll give you my answer after you provide proof that you've added $$$ to the Give Meter.

Bwahaha! You'll treat your US citizenship like a bar bet? Oh man this is too rich.

I'll take that to mean you are refusing to help out your government with a donation.

The Liberal Give Meter (sadly) still stands at $0.00

OK I sent them a cool million, now mail me your passport and all other forms of government identification.

Sorry, frozen stacks of Monopoly money doesn't count. The Give Meter is still stuck on ZERO.

Ah, don't worry. They're probably watching him anyway. :)
