    'How the Bottom 20% Lives – On Your Taxes'

    'Despite Democrat claims about the rich not paying their fair share,
    IRS data shows that the top 20% of earners pay more than 65% of all
    federal income taxes, while the bottom 20% pay effectively nothing,
    receiving more in benefits than they are paying in taxes.

    According to data from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and the
    U.S. Census Bureau, the bottom 20% of U.S. income earners (households
    in the lowest income quintile) receive a significant portion, often
    the majority, of their income from government transfers such as
    Medicaid, SNAP (food stamps), housing subsidies, and refundable tax
    credits like the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC).

    Roughly 80% of Americans are taxpayers, while the remaining 20% are
    net tax consumers. To put it in simple terms: taxpayers eat what they
    kill, while tax consumers live off what others have hunted. They rely
    on the labor and productivity of the working class to sustain their
    standard of living.

    Although liberals often portray welfare recipients as disabled or
    unable to work, the reality is that most could work, but choose not
    to. According to the Congressional Budget Office, 60% of working-age
    adults in the welfare-dependent population did not work at all during
    the year, and many were not officially classified as disabled.

    Among recipients of SNAP alone, roughly 28% are classified as
    able-bodied adults without dependents (ABAWDs). Data from the Census
    Bureau and the Department of Health and Human Services show that
    roughly 40–50% of these individuals are able-bodied adults of
    working age. And yet, they have somehow managed to game the system and
    continue receiving benefits.

    The controversy over the “Big Beautiful Bill” was, as usual,
    misrepresented. The media framed it as cruel cuts, as if benefits were
    being stripped from some old, crippled woman born with her heart on
    the outside, raising several mixed-race children. A “10% cut,” for
    example, is always portrayed as meaning a disabled or aged person
    living on $2,000 a month will now get $1,800.

    But that’s generally not what a budget cut means. In most cases, it
    simply means the bar is being raised to qualify for benefits, so that
    healthy, working-age people are encouraged to go back to work.

    And proof of this is that Democrats are always quick to say, “With
    the new cuts, 12 million people could lose their benefits.” Yes,
    that’s exactly what a cut is supposed to do: reduce the total number
    of people on benefits, not necessarily reduce payments to those who
    truly need them. As is so often the case in politics between the two
    parties, terms need to be defined. Most people agree that those who
    truly need help should get it, we just want to narrow the definition
    of who qualifies.

    Democrats portray benefits as a temporary lifeline, but in reality,
    they often create long-term dependence. States routinely report
    challenges in getting these individuals into job training or
    employment programs.

    Meanwhile, many recipients get more in refundable tax credits than
    they owe, along with a wide range of benefits from both federal and
    state programs, including SNAP (food stamps), Medicaid, Section 8
    housing, utility subsidies, and child tax credits. With their rent,
    medical care, food, and other expenses covered without working, they
    have little incentive to put in the effort that would disqualify them
    from receiving free money.

    Compounding the issue, many of the households receiving benefits
    suffer from chronic social breakdown. According to the U.S. Census
    Bureau, more than 70% of children in low-income, inner-city
    communities are raised in fatherless homes. These children face
    dramatically worse outcomes across the board: the National Fatherhood
    Initiative reports that children without fathers are four times more
    likely to live in poverty, twice as likely to drop out of school, and
    more likely to engage in criminal activity or be incarcerated.

    Studies from the Brookings Institution and Pew Charitable Trusts
    further show that welfare dependency is often passed down through
    generations. A child whose parents received public assistance is
    significantly more likely to end up on welfare themselves, and the
    probability increases further if both parents and grandparents relied
    on benefits. In some communities, families are now entering their
    fourth generation of government dependence, with no expectation or
    cultural pressure to exit the welfare system.

    And the left either denies that any of this is true — or, worse,
    believes it’s a good thing.'

    The bottom feeder snit has been gaming the system for years. Now with
    Trump in office and actively going after these lazy people who can work
    but refuse, snit is eventually going to feel the heat.
    There is also speculation that for the extreme long time grifters some >>restitution will be required.
    I say putting the lazy scammers to work should be enough restitution.
    Can you imagine snit having to work a 9-5 job, pay taxes and still have >>enough time to run his troll farm?
    He belongs on a chain gang digging trenches.
    There is also talk of a reward of sorts for reporting these criminals.
    If I were snit, I'd go under ground because the number of people he has >>pissed off over the years is huge and I'm sure at least some of them
    will be looking to stick it to snit.
    Either way things are about to become very warm for snit Michael Glasser
    of Prescott Arizona.
    Is this snit a Jew?
    I smell the stench of Gefilte fish and an un bathed body so that
    signifies a Jew.
    Avoiding taxes gets taught in the Jew Yeshiva so the little leeches
    learn early how to scam the system. The cheap Jew bastards will fight
    tooth and nail for a dime. They love money.

    Have you reported this Jew boy Snit to the IRS and DOGE?
    You should.
    Post his contact information and I will do the same. Greedy, lazy Jews
    need to be sterilized.


    Children should be forced to learn the truth about the poor in school.

    Serving the wealthy has always been the American way, the poor can no
    longer
    be tolerated. All good Christians know this and also Jesus Christ hated
    the
    poor more than he hated Communists, Jews and leftists.


    The poor are the reason this country is a shithole not worth the dirt it's built on. If Trump would grow some balls and build camps to detain them
    in,
    we can start gassing them and cure poverty in America once and for all.

    Why is he afraid of the poor and why won't he obliterate them?
