GostHacked Posted September 27, 2010 Report Posted September 27, 2010 Exactly. So how can you say they're the same pocket? One supplies the other. The government pocket can't exist without the People's pocket. So when you run a deficit and a huge debt, is there any money in the government pocket, if so where does it come from? They are different piles in a sense yes, but one is directly dependent on the other. And whenever the government pocket is dry, how do they end up paying for stimulus packages and bank bail outs? The pocket that the taxpayers pay into with their own money is their own money, just 'trusted' to the government to put to good use. How so? If somebody sees their taxes go up, does that mean they have more or less money in their pocket? Obviously the taxpayer has less money, but who's pocket is the government tapping in order to pay out these ridiculous stimulus packages? Quote
