Disabled people who can and choose to work. Otherwise, why would a tax exemption be attractive?
Why shouldn’t the disabled who choose to work get an exemption?
Because we pay taxes to fund a huge government.
And what’s it to you that a disabled person is getting a tax exemption and you aren’t.
What’s it to you that I pay taxes? You don’t mind I can also be exempt, do you?
In fact it would benefit you cause by them working and getting that exemption not as much would be taking from you in your taxes.
Yes, because those who actually could work, but lived on the government tit were just waiting for a tax emption. I seriously doubt an unmotivated person would be jumping into an income bracket where he’d have much if any taxes to worry about. Hell, they’d probably qualify for Obama’s tax “credit.”
There is a way for most disabled people to work, however it can be hard for many to find a job in the first place, depends on the disablity, but is hard enough getting around anyway. Plus if a disabled person is not “draining” your tax dollars by choosing to work then you would be benefiting from this as much as the one who is tax exempt.
The question should be, why are we providing people who can work, but choose not to, incentive to do just that. That doesn’t piss you off?
The disabled collecting SSI that aren’t working, don’t pay taxes for that so the only thing that would change is that there would be less taxes taken out to support their SSI
monthly income.
So less people to shoulder the burden off SSI? I’m not exactly seeing huge surpluses as it is.
It’s because you fail to use your head. You immediately are jumping to conclusions that you are being fucked over which you aren’t. You are pissed cause you feel that a working disabled person could get a tax break isn’t fair. Well being disabled and dealing with the daily obstacles and assholes isn’t fair either.
You fail to see that even though a disabled person is working tax free, you aren’t having anything taking out of yours cause SSI would be paying out less. And if the obvious abusers of the system can be prevented from getting benefits then thats even better.
Uh, no. The implication is that there’s a ton of handicap twiddling their thumbs refusing to work until they’re exempt. I’ve known a near quadriplegic (not sure how else to put it) working in an architectural office the same hours as anyone else. Did he lay around waiting for a special tax break? For your, “fair?”
No, I’m supposed to believe these folks, who could work now but refuse to, would move into income brackest in which they’d actually pay some taxes, instead of recieving a tax credit? These unmotivated, “I’m owed something,” individuals? I seriously doubt it.
And, just how much would these people need to earn, and save in taxes, to equal SSI and whatever else they may be eligible for, to light a fire under their ass? Just what tax bracket would they have to fall under, before those who refuse to work now, would be motivated to work?
Instead of tax exemption, we need to be wondering why we’re subsidizing people who could work, yet want to sit around until they get a pat on the head.

Again, you obviously are misreading my posts or not understanding what I’m saying. Yes Sloth, every single disabled person has a count down on the calandar for when they can fuck the system by finally working.
It’s all a mass conspiracy. I never once mentioned those “unmotivated individiuals” should get a tax exemption, in fact I believe I’ve already made my point with that. But I will say it again, just like your near quad friend, many want to make a living without having to depend on SSI.
And like your friend, who is obviously the type of disabled person I’m talking about, he probably doesn’t even give two shits or not if he gets tax exempt. In fact, he’s probably against it, or would say cool if he gets it, or so what if he doesn’t.
Lot of disabled people do not “sit around”, as I keep saying, they want a living too. I just feel that them having a tax exemption for it is fine by me.
