David R Kamerschen is a very smart man….. hope he contributes more !
this is wack
ur a real phd holder sir

yeah a pdh holder… totally… tards…
Nevermind the fact that the reason the tenth man is so rich because he’s spent his entire life ripping off men 1-9. He gets sacks full of money shipping 1 & 2’s jobs overseas. We should tax man 10 at 95%.
I came here for a laugh, not for a lesson about the tax system.
St’v'n: lots of anger…looks like someone is guy 1-4
lol haha ok well here’s my tax system……..Buy illegal papers, pay no taxes, get ticked when i realize i have to pay taxes with the IRS pin number they give me for taxes, do my taxes and later find out i’m not elligable for tax refund because i have no social security….how do you like those apples

As soon as you and the rest of you Guy Number Ones out there learn how to speak English, you might actually get a decent job and not have to kill people for money!
that ìs brilliant……
If you tax that man 95% he would quite and live off the system like the first 4 lazy guys and then everone is screwed because the middle guys will just try to do the same when the taxes fall on them.
Really, really true
