With every paycheck, you are likely stealing some money from the taxpayers. How much can you steal without feeling guilty?

How cute. You don't know what stealing means
Yeah, it's those low level public employees who are causing all the problems. God forbid that public employees can afford to do things like own a home or take a vacation. Only private sector employees should have those benefits.
They give you internet access during summer school? How progressive.
Like all humans, government employees, drone operators, if the people are far enough away or if they are being compensated with enough money, they can MURDER and justify it without a 2nd thought, then go about their day with their families with zero regard to the carnage they inflict upon others.
Okay, that came out of left field.
Hmm...let's see...tax on dividends is, what ~15%?
Tax on my income is, what, 30%
As long as billionaire investors are taxed less for recession-causing shell games than I am for working 8-6, I'll happily take as much as the state (yes, that's you!) would like to pay me. And damn right they pay me well.
Why do you ask? If you're in need, I donate to a number of charities you can avail yourself of...
Just slightly less than executives take from public companies that receive tax credits, tax right offs and bailout money.
Thanks for playing.
So, when liberals attack the wealthy for having seen massive growth in wealth over the past two decades while wages have been stagnant, it is repulsive class warfare. But when conservatives attack public employees who have successfully organized to be paid well for doing jobs that offers very little opportunity for advancement and are often ardous, boring, dangerous or just something that no one would want to do for a career, it is not class warfare.
I would much rather my tax dollars go to pay a living wage to the poor slob who has to sit at the DMV window all day than to pay a subsidy to a developer to build a Walmart or to an oil company to get rich on a new fracking operation that leaves the drinking water poisoned and methane leaking all over.

There are plenty of teachers here who can answer your question. Oh yeah, I forgot, they are all busy right now preparing for their 2+ month paid vacation. Guess you (and America's children) are out of luck until September.

Spoken like a true ignorant person.
I think that sucks.
You need to be making over 178k to get into a 30% bracket. To get your average over 30% for income taxes you would need to be making 500k+

Working class public employees are the big thieves in your world?
Not billionaire businessmen with govt contracts?
"Not billionaire businessmen with govt contracts?"
I never said that.

Exactly.
You went after working people and left the fatcats out of it.
Why?
The Mongoloid-Semitic public employee wears fanny packs to Neo Con board meetings full of darkie Los Angeles Olympic medalists running Rupp-certified miles in the hallowed canyons of the greatest city in the universe, New York's Big Apple of course. Now if only the heartless bitch at Starbucks would throw me a bone here!
Clean the boogers out of your nose first!

If you are so envious you too can become a teacher. So either become one and have the life you have always dreamed of, or blame yourself for being a lazy slob.
Well let's see.. I've been out of school since May 31. I got up at 9:30 today, drank a few cups of coffee, played with my kids, read the paper. Hmm. I'll probably go for a 30-40 mile bike ride after lunch, chill a bit, maybe nap. Oh yeah, I have this book I need to read over the summer for PD - "Pathways to the Common Core." Looks like it'll take a few hours to read, so I'll most likely wait until late August to get to it.
Man, I guess I have a lot of things on my mind. Time to fill, vacations to plan, runs to run, naps to take, and so on.
Guilt isn't on my mind at all, pal. And payday is Friday... ha!
