Taxes are made in such a way that those who produce and are active members of the society are punished and those who don't are rewarded. Take, for example, the federal tax brackets (income = tax percent):

• $0 - 8,350 = 10%
  
• $8,350 - 33,950 = 15%
  
• $33,950 - 82,250 = 25%
  
• $82,250 - 171,550 = 28%
  
• $171,550 - 372,950 = 33%
  
• $372,950+ = 35%

Notice that the more one makes, the higher the person is taxed. Where do these taxes go? Among other things, the taxes support the ones who don't produce. These taxes come from the working class. The individuals that earn money and contribute

Take a look at who doesn't pay taxes and you'll understand what I mean:

• Drug Dealers
  
• The Disabled
  
• Prisoners
  
• Retired
  
• Illegal Immigrants
  
• Welfare people (IE: the lady down the street with 13 kids and has never had a job in her life or the Drug Dealers from above because they report no income).

The system we have in place is rewarding those that do not help themselves while the ones contributing are punished.

The Pregnant Freeloader
I know a girl that got pregnant so that the she could collect child support. Once the child was born, she began collecting (around $400 or so a month). Next she was able to qualify for poor housing (basically, a free roof) and applied for food stamps/welfare. She doesn't work. I do. She smokes pot all the time and does whatever she wants. I go to bed each night and wake up at the crack of dawn to go to work. She sleeps until 11:00 in the afternoon. She pays no taxes, I spend 25% of mine supporting her. This must stop.

Stop!
I believe the first step we should make to resolve this problem is to make it harder (if not impossible) for freeloaders to live off of those of us that work. I believe we should cut off their income. Next, we should educate the poor, force them to work or suffer (as nature intended, only the strong survive).

Prisoners
Put the prisoners back to work, the chain-gang is an excellent idea. Why can't they also do other menial tasks such as garbage collection and public service jobs? Send the Illegal Immigrants back. Create stiffer laws for drug-dealers, throw them in jail and make them work on the chain-gang cleaning up our streets.
