phreakwars Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 My theory is, you could stimulate the economy by simply changing our yearly income tax filing date from April 15th to September 15th instead. Start our fiscal year in July. My reasoning.... September is the beginning of the cold season in America, at the same time, it is also the HOLIDAY season. Alot of retail outlets count on this time to boost sales, it's kind of hard to compete when people are trying to heat their homes at the same time... people are worried, and Christmas, doesn't look to be as bright as it would have like to have been. It would ease the burden from consumers if they knew they were getting their refund checks at the same time that they need to start spending more money. Overall I feel this would boost end of year sales and provide relief to struggling families. . . Quote https://www.facebook.com/phreakwars

wez Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 And really, if ones smart, they don't get a tax refund. Why borrow your money to the government for 0% interest? How about we declare a person must live within 50 miles of any and all businesses they own.. Quote

wez Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 I think we should declare open season on the "rats" in Washington D.C., first. Even better! Ya know, if we handed GB AWOL and 5 deferments Cheney over as a war criminals, left Saudi Arabia and stopped protecting the Royal Sloth, our national safety would skyrocket.. Lose 2 or thousands +? Think those two would take one for the team? Quote

wez Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Since I'm appearantly faced, could someone translate this for me... Sorry bud.. I'll translate for ya.. GB, whilst "serving" in the military, was AWOL much of the time from his post on some base for snotty, elite kids. Cheney got several deferments from the military in his youth.. Now they like to kick the worlds ass with other peoples kids just like daddy did. They invade sovereign countries based upon lies, killing sh tloads of human beings making them war criminals. 16 of the 19 hijackers were Saudi, like Bin Laden. They hate us because we are in their country and region of the world killing sh tloads of people for the last 20 years as well as protecting their Royal family, which they also hate because they are sloths who do their country no good for the average citizen, but can not get rid of them because we protect them. If we handed over GB and Cheney as the war criminals that they are, got our ass out of the middle east and stopped killing sh tloads of people, and stopped protecting the Royal Family, it would greatly reduce, if not eliminate our risk of terrorism from more Saudis. So, we could sacrifice those two and accomplish what those two are claiming they are trying to accomplish, but never will because they are lying sacks of sh t, rather than sacrifice thousands more of our nations children and possibly thousands of civilians in another attack. And I asked, would those two take one for the team, or cry a river to anyone who would listen if asked to make the ultimate sacrifice for God and country. I'm guessing that would be a big no, and a river would be cried. Quote
ImWithStupid Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Then we hand over Bill Clinton, Madeline Albright, etc... for all those killed in Kosovo, Bosnia, etc... and this stimulates the US economy, how? I thought that was the topic of this thread. I could be wrong. Quote
wez Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Then we had over Bill Clinton, Madeline Albright, etc... for all those killed in Kosovo, Bosnia, etc... and this stimulates the US economy, how? I thought that was the topic of this thread. I could be wrong. Less defense spending?.. Or less offense spending, I should say..Plus we could seize those two's assets and fix our roads. We could also hand over daddy for crimes against the people of Panama, throw Barbara in prison as a willing accomplice, and seize their assets as well. We could also eliminate the dept. of homeland insecurity, saving billions more. Be debt free in 5 years.. Ya know.. it's almost our duty as rational human beings. Americans clean up their own mess.

I'm guessing that would be a big no, and a river would be cried. So the only thing I got out of this that I agreed on was that 16 out of 19 hijackers were Saud's. Why hand over GB to the Saud's for war crimes? Hmmm...? After all wasn't it the Saud's the perpetrators? The Saud's ARE the ones that attacked us! Now if Bush had the Patton mentality and just went right to the root of the problem and thumped Saudi Arabia , what would you be saying now? Hmm.. primitive blah blah blah.. something to that effect. We had no business? We have to abide by the U.N rules. Otherwise we are out there by ourselves. There was an instigation that went on about the Royal family but we went right for the attackers themselves being orchestrated by Bin Laden.

hugo Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 The real solution is not to have an income tax at all and abolish the IRS. fairtax.org Until then, there will be no good time to receive or pay taxes. From the link; The FairTax will replace dollar for dollar the current revenues confiscated by the IRS. That's the only problem I got with it, but it is a good start. Then cut spending and taxes.

RoyalOrleans Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 That's the only problem I got with it, but it is a good start. Then cut spending and taxes. Yes. We have to start somewhere and anything we can do to shrink government, ie can a bunch of grimey IRS auditors, the better.

jokersarewild Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 As it stands, they wouldn't even have to move the tax due date. They could just delay giving us our refunds. That would be the same as what you're proposing in the first post, would it not? Quote RoyalOrleans is my real dad!
phreakwars Posted September 2, 2008 Author Posted September 2, 2008 Yes, that would also be similar. I mean if they can coordinate a date period for mass mailing stimulus checks, then surely they can coordinate this in the same way to distribute tax rebates... or is this too socialist? What would be the downside? . . Quote https://www.facebook.com/phreakwars
jokersarewild Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 I honestly think it would screw the economy because stores currently expect large amounts of money coming their way between May and June/July. Then when they don't...they get screwed royally. So I'm willing to bet that would hurt our economy more than help it. That, and if you think about it, you're getting your tax refund to replenish the debt you went into in the holiday season. People would go into the same amount of debt with your plan, but just buy cooler . However, that would the citizenry in the long run, because then they can't get out of their debt (people are too stupid to spend within their means), so they'd just get boned.
