Random Politics & Religion #00

My only takeaway from this conversation so far is that the government discriminates against single people. Why the *** do married couples get to reach 220k for the cutoff?! ACLU HELP MEH True story, three of my friends are getting married just because they drop to a lower tax bracket.
But polygamy is illegal! Unless you're Mitten's cousin.

Well, the joke's on the engineers, since they still *** other people.

ACLU HELP MEH True story, three of my friends are getting married just because they drop to a lower tax bracket. Because you are combining 2 people into one return.
Only a few limitations are doubled when you go from Single status to Married filing jointly status. Most limitations are not.
However, MFJ has much better tax rates than Single, so married couples (most of the time) benefit more from being married than filing single and/or MFS.

Extend the tax leniency to everyone. Or are you not for Lower Taxes?

Amongst other things Utah is famous for, it should be noted that Utah was not accepted as a state for almost 50 years until it forced the ban of polygamy by way of restricting the rights of those who practiced it.
Polygamy to Utah is like pot to stoners.

Why do we have a special rate for capital gains? There is a specific reason for this, do you know it?

Extend the tax leniency to everyone. Or are you not for Lower Taxes? Elaborate please.
Do you want everyone to pay MFJ rates, regardless of filing status? Do you want the MFJ rates to apply as the base, and have all other rates conform to that (instead of having Single rates as the base rate)?

Backread a few pages. All I learned was that not being a productive member of society means you deserve to die from either exposure, starvation or illness. And I suppose your kids/family as well.
Y'know, the things that the bare necessities are required for to survive.
That's pretty ***' harsh.

Polygamy to Utah is like pot to stoners. There's really no strong argument against it other than maybe administrative difficulties. I feel that once this and same-sex marriage are ultimately resolved the next crusade is obviously gay polygamous marriages. That should get some heads exploding.

Axe the MFJ, tax everyone at the MFJ rates. I do not believe it's the government's place to dictate lifestyle by artificial financial incentives, especially when some states are allowed to deny that right to other people. (Homosexuals)

Random Politics & Religion is for topics that aren't thread worthy on their own and do not have their own existing thread.
Rules and Guidelines
Forum Rules and P&R Section Guidelines still apply.
Satire is tolerated.
If your topic covers a story over 6 months old (Watergate, Benghazi, 2012 Election, etc.) post it here.
Discussions on racism, homophobia, transphobia, and the like are allowed, targeted insults based on these will not be tolerated.
Political debates get heated and are meant to be intense, if you take offense to being called or proven wrong, you don't belong here.
If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen; if you prove you can't handle the criticism you bring upon yourself in this thread, you may be removed from it. You are responsible for what you post.
Along those lines, heat is fine, but sustained, clearly personal hostility is not okay. The personal attack rules still apply. Attack positions, not posters. Failure to adhere to this will result in your removal from the thread.
This thread is NOT the Flame Core.
These rules are subject to change and modification where and when needed.
Random Politics & Religion may be mained or demained depending on the activity within at a Moderator's discretion.
With that out of the way, let the debates begin!
