No way, i disagree. You always hear about the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer...well with the top 3% of the richest paying for most of the taxes, the poorer get more of a break.
...go cry about it if ur increased taxes are keeping you from buying that 2nd lambo...atleast those who really need that money to say living can actually spend it on food and living as opposed to taxes....

Spoken like a true communist! Lets take all the money away from the people who earn it and deserve it, and give it to shiftless loafers who are too lazy to work.

No. But left-wing liberals want it to be socialist, and that's close enough! Also, the ideas you were purporting are completely socialist.

I just sold my 98 vert to a guy from Norway. He bought two verts while he was here and shipped them to Norway. As mentioned in earlier posts, there is definitely a premium on vettes over there. Anyway, he was a cool guy.
