Without taxes there will be no one to exinguish the fire once your home starts to burn, there will be no one to protect you from murderers and thiefs, there will be no one to give you monetary support once you get fired, there will be no one to light streets at night, there will be no one to educate all children and no one to heal all patients!

US may be in debt, but do you have any idea how much other countries OWE the US?

No, but I know that USA owes China over 580.000.000.000 $, owes Japan over 500.000.000.000 $, owes UK over 380.000.000.000 $ and owes other countries a couple of bills too.

There will be people to educate the children. That is, the children. They're far better at it than public schools, certainly, as well as most private schools (other than perhaps the free skools, in which case they're about equal).

And you realize that if we don't, China through sheer NUMBERS would decimate us, right?

yeah but they're not going to have a war over a debt. seriously no country ever does.

besides, you seriously underestimate how much money countries owe the US.

Actually, from the Communist view - and you can find this right there in the Communist Manifesto - an extremely high income tax is a good thing and is, in fact, the first thing that Karl Marx advocates doing during the period of transitory Socialism. There's a list of ten things that Marx says should be achieved during this Socialist transition, and a heavy and progressive income tax is the first thing on that list.

EDIT: I just pulled out my copy of the Manifesto just to double check this, and I was wrong. It was the second thing on the list. Whatever.

lal??
why do socio dem favor tax cuts for the poor but HUGE tax for the rich?
do they srsly think that capitalism can work that way?

Yeah, they're pretty silly. They think that most capitalists don't just use tax loopholes, and that capital strikes don't exist.

And if those countries don't pay us back as your view on what we will do to China? We just forget about it? Doubt it..

And what countries owe the US a lot? I've seen some but not many, and not near the amount of how much we owe China/Japan/UK
