no, thats just what it averages out to be. the average american pays the same that they do in taxes every year, its not like we would get to keep that money, and also, the average person doesnt pay that much in taxes every year, so the statement is a little off

piots worried about america because america is way out of line, unlike canada. Although that money isn't coming out of our pockets, it still is tax money that could be spent on more valuable things, like helping people, rather than waging war on them. and bigj, you crack me up, 'welfare or some bullshit like that' Yep, welfare, total bullshit, couldn't agree with you more.

'america is way out of line, unlike canada' um, sure. its all a mater of perspective isnt it? and welfare is worthless as it stands now. what isnt worthless is getting people jobs instead of handouts. government housing, also worthless. you silly suburbanites. and be sure to drop me a line when you notice that 3k being taken out of your check... but at the same time, i guess that not many 13 year olds have jobs... so i guess i wont wait up for that one... piot is only concerned about weather or not the us foreign policy will affect his ability to obtain weed or not...

well for one im not sure about everyone else but i work hard enough but im not american so i dont have to worry bout that 3grand, also dont you think that even though social projects by the government may not be a fix to the problem of poverty, at least its better than making people poorer than they already were, stealing their resources all under the false pretext of helping them. Thats pretty low and personally id rather have my tax dollar going to help my fellow country men than going to destroy other peoples lives

''What isn't worthless is getting people jobs instead of handouts. Government housing, also worthless.''
And how the fuck are you supposed to get a job if you don't have a roof over your head?
I don't know how the welfare system works in the U.S., but I'm guessing it works similarily to welfare in Canada. There needs to be welfare reform. Create incentive for those on it, to get off of it... but of course its easier to say 'fuck welfare' because your ass wasn't raised by a single mother with 3 kids on welfare.
...And no, that isn't an unreasonable scenario. If you actually made an attempt to understand the issue, you'd find that a frightning percentage of single mothers rely on welfare to feed themselves and their children.

the only problem with saying that 3 grand is worth it to prevent terrorist attacks is the fact that: 1)there was no connection btw Al'qaeda and iraq or sadam, eventhough bush does not believe the 'conclusive proof' the cia has no discovered
2)since iraq the number of people joining al'qaeda has more than doubled
so bush has sucessfully made his country and all the people within it even more likely to be attacked. in effect your 3 grand has hellped create a despairate nation that is will to go to any extent to attack 'the west', and i has also helped in the increase of funding and support for terrorist organizations around the world.
If this is what your will to work over time for then so be it, but its not what i would like my money to go towards

Its not just Bush,its the friggin administration. That guy has other people do nearly everything for him, he has even touched toilet paper in years.
Bush is not the government and doesn't have anything to do with selecting majority of the government officials.
So you turds can stop making silly anti-Bush slogans and start on a smaller scale if you ever hope to actually accomplish anything aside from making everyone aware of your lack of ablity to accomplish anything.

your right no one does try to attack us but we have we still have to deal with what the USA does, soft woodlumber, being acused as a country with many terrorists, we're your neighbours, also while all media is bias, we hear things that are 'too cencored' or things that reporter will be acused of treason in the USA for saying. Inaddition we provide many of the USA's resources, while we cant vote, iraq effected us, bush effected us, and the next president will effect us. We truely need to work together for something constructive. Constructive critisism is a start, and i think canadians and americans need to try to look at critisism not as an attack on their pride but infact as someone elses view. While i think many americans, bush included, believe that as long as the rest of the world isnt attacking them they do not matter. This is the wrong outlook, because the USA is the most powerfull nation they must be the nicest, and the most caring. It is as a result of this that canada cares, and all the citizens of canada care to express our opinion which is so often trampled on.

Lets say you have 10 000 people, about the number of drunken rowdy males at a Flames playoff game. Armed with nothing more than semi-auto 22\'s and flaming Alberta whiskey, this rag-tag group could fight a successful guerilla campaign against 150 000 US troops plus tens of thousands of coalition troops, costing $5 bil a MONTH and lasting at least 2 years. Pretty pathetic considering the US spends more on its military per year than every other country COMBINED.

I really don't uderstand why people are moaning. 1) All this means is that your war budget has been increased at the expense of a couple of other things. And there is already a defence budget, it's just taking a bigger vut now, when the war is over it will backseat.
2) That's an average, not all americans earn the same
3) most of you are students/only work summers so you don't pay tax anyway.

while it is a huge amount of money that undoubtabley could have been better spent on a worth while cause, i doubt that the american people will end up paying a cent more. The US instead just keeps increasing its national debt. It has stopped caring what astronomical figure it is, and carring what that figure truely represents. At this point in time it is irelevant if they keep spending. Problaby in the future it will end up catching up to the US and screwing them over, but at this point its anyones guess, and the US will contiunue spending in perpetuity.
