The War is Making You Poor Act [HR 5353]

I guess I am not in the right mind.

If the ppl who make =<$35G/yr do not pay any income tax then someone else will simply pay it. As in, the people on the wrong side of the $35G.

If Obama's healthcare reform is unfair because it forces us, people who have our fecal matter together, to pay for bums and degenerates, how is this bill any different?

I am not being rhetorical, either. I would like to be explained how is this a good bill, because so far, I do not see anything good in it.

So people making less than 35,000 a year are bums and degenerates. which means beginning teachers, as well as many other occupations are all bums and degenerates. Awesome. I bet that makes at least 1/3 to 1/2 of the members on this forum bums and degenerates.

i'm self-employeed and the federal government ass-rapes people like me. we make about that much.
 
I just got a call back from my congressman's staff, which I've never had happen before. And he reassured me that he'd pass my message along. He also mentioned that he received another message in the same day about this bill, that it's in committee now, and that it stands a reasonable chance of moving forward since it's introduced by someone of the party in power (I'm skeptical, but we'll see).

Bottom line, seriously write or call your reps. If they notice a wave of support for this, it will help.

I called my congressman and got a call back today from a staff member as well. My congressman is a democrat and he voted for the healthcare bill and he has a pretty strong republican running against him this year, I told the staff member that I lean libertarian,that I voted for the republican running against him a couple years ago and that I'm very disappointed in him for voting for the healthcare bill but that I would seriously consider voting for him if he supported HR 5353. She said that she doesn't know what he will do but will pass the word on to him that I would like for him to cosponsor it

John Conyers [D, MI-14]

Conscription Clause?

Is there a clause in the bill stating that the first-born son of every Congress member who votes for more funding to the war has to enlist and fight in the war?
 
I'm bumping this thread so that people who want to talk about this bill will see that we have a thread on it for them to post in other than the one with the silly title.
