First of all, I appreciate very much for your interesting and polite post with us here. It's interesting to read your description post over US system to compare with EU countries.

Yes, we also pay low tax, too because we are married and have children. Single people pay more taxes than married couples. They (married or unmarried couple or single mother) also get low tax, too if they start family. We pay low tax but still we get children allowance from government separately. It does the same with other EU countries.

No, Hillary would not take your tax away since you already have a family.

The federal government takes our taxes, and the state government
takes our taxes. These are listed on our checks, every thing the
government takes out. If you look at all that is taken out you begin
to get suspicious because you think "where is all that money going?"
and we should have free health care and spas with all that money
coming out of pay checks."
Would you like to support federal government to spend your taxes on war issues to neglect their people and country? Do you worry that government spend your taxes to help people's healthcare, not war issues? I rather to see government take care of their people and their health. I rather to see my taxes goes to help people who need our help.

I would much rather make payments to end a debt and therefor
only have to pay when is necessary than to have the govt take
more money when I am not using it. And like Reba says, if we
were to have any really huge debt, there are govt programs you
can file for that will pay your medical bills. Say one of my kids
had an accident and I owed a $10,000 medical bill. Then I would
apply for the Oregon Health Care plan. I didn't do it for $300
because I would rather make payments than cause another
taxpayer to have to help pay for my kids medical bills. As I said
there is already enough taken out of checks for taxes. If anything
it is the governments fault for using the money they already get
in unneccasary spending, like when Bill Clinton got that $700 hair
cut on the airplane. Does anyone else here remember that? I would
have cut his hair for $20 and saved the taxpayers some money. I
would have even slapped his hand if he tried to sneak a feel!
I respect your POV but what if you or your family have few or more accidents or whatever per year since you have family in household... It might cost you more than $50,000 ? Can you acheive to pay the month payment? Have you read Katin's post #214? It could end to ruin your life for pay high debts... It could lead bankruptcy. Do you think it's easy for you to rely Oregon Health Care plan for the help if you have more accidents or whatever per year and then next happened in next year? I can image to myself if I live in USA and have to pay over $100,000 for my son's head surgery... I would end to sell my house to cover the debts because monthly payment is too high. That's why I support Hillary's plan.

$700 for hair cut? As what you said that Clinton's hair cut cost $700. It's from taxpayers.
