So I guess if people stopped cheating the tax system, we wouldn't have a huge deficit.

Yes.. that in addition to the tax breaks we're getting plus the war.. When it all adds up, it certainly isn't helping.

Hey, the 1980's proved that tax breaks for corporations and the rich have a trickle-down effect on the economy…

Yeah, I know, and just what Libertie said - were having war.

I don't think this has anything to do with that.
There's a difference between being given a tax break, and outright refusing to pay taxes.

I was responding to Libertie's point about tax breaks supposedly helping to stimulate the economy. They, too, are a contributor to the budget deficit crisis.

Don't let people on un-employment for no good reason. There's a tax to cut down on.
