There is no sane reason why people who have paid taxes for thirty to forty years should continue to pay taxes. If those in congress cannot see the error of they ways, they must be replaced. There needs to be a meaningful contract with Americans, a contract which protects those who have labored to build America s economy. It is time for those in congress to get off the backs of the senior citizens who have labored long and hard to keep themselves independent of government handouts and who have built valuable estates for themselves and their families. The cost of growing old in America is extremely expensive.
People have to save enormous sums to live decently in their older years.
It is time for government officials to realize that they are the ones who, via taxes, are the criminals when it come to caring for those who came before them. During this election year, we must make demands on our people in congress and the people who are challenging them. Send a copy of this opinion to them. Demand that they get rid of taxes for people 65 and over. Only support candidates who are willing to act in your interest.
