If you don’t contribute to the country in terms of taxes and you get something from the government I would argue you’re doing very well.

That's why so many billionaires are divesting their assets so they can live on food stamps.

The poor don’t pay taxes, so of course they didn’t get a tax cut. There’s nothing to cut.

So to sum up, the $6.7 million spent on the Mueller investigation so far could instead have gone to the wealthy.

I can live with that.

Not the wealthy, the wealthy are responsible for the majority of taxes. Chances are it would go to the poor.

Under the current administration, the poor will be lucky to keep what government support they have now, let alone see any additional.

But the Mueller money is already spent, so the whole conversation is hypothetical anyway.

Does this change the fact that a judge is doing this? And if i could go to CNN I would but they don’t have anything about the case not even that a judge had to recuse himself. Funny that.

True it is hypothetical, I don’t like special prosecutors in any capacity. I disagree, the poor are still being assisted. The issue is how much money is being wasted.

The poor don’t pay taxes, so of course they didn’t get a tax cut. There’s nothing to cut.
Column: How much do the poor actually pay in taxes? Probably more than you think.

All told, those in the bottom fifth of earners pay almost a fifth of their income in taxes. According to the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy, the lowest-income quintile — those making less than $19,000 a year — pay almost 11 percent of their income in state and local taxes. Working people, even if they don’t make enough money to pay federal income tax, also pay payroll taxes that contribute to Social Security and Medicare. And anyone who drives a car pays gas taxes. The old cliché really does hold true — the only thing as inevitable as death are taxes.

And is that offset by government programs assisting them?

We can't determine whether the money was wasted until we see Mueller's reports. And no doubt, that will only be the beginning of debates, not the end.

I’m personally against special counsels because no ken can stop them.

You’re a joke, the NRA leadership isn’t against every Parkland survivor. They’re against David Hogg who has called the NRA child murderers. Have you read about this event or are you just generalizing?
Unlike you I read.

If you can read, in that article it even mentions that most NRA members actually want more gun control. It's the leadership with their heads in the sand.

Not David Hogg. He called all the protesters soulless.

And I’m done, look if you want to discuss politics that’s great and all. Right now you’re giving nothing more than just ad hoc attacks.

Oh and screwTed Nugent but Ted Nugent isn’t the president of the NRA so you’re mix and matching to fit what you want it to be.

He's on the board. That makes him one member of it's leadership. You can't excuse just because it's inconvenient for you. Another member tried that when he was reminded of Nugent's threats to Obama.

That’s not a question for the government to answer.

If not for government, it would be wealthy pays nothing and poor receives nothing.

I like what we have better.

[And by the way, the answer to my earlier question is, you would prefer being wealthy. Believe me.] :)
