well an early welcome to NZ man hope you like it. As for why you are leaving people choosing 40-45 rather   100-60 is pretty odd, but I think one reason may be that people think it's more likely. As for stealing from the rich I don't see how the US government is doing that, I mean I could argue that many of the richest people are stealing from the poor as a lot of them don't pay much if any taxes. But what do I know I gust live in New Zealand. 


Just an FYI. The lower 47% of the US pays no federal tax. The top 5% of the income earners pay 60% of all federal income tax.

What I mean by stealing, is taking from someone for the sole purpose of giving it to someone else. That's stealing in my book. I would be ok with the statistic I gave you, if that was just to "run the country". It's not. A lot of money collected is given away to others.

Every dollar given to an american from the federal government, was first taken from someone else.
