Question

What are the benefits for paying taxes? My parents came to America with nothing and got on their feet and have been paying taxes eevry year since they stepped foot into this nation and didn't even use food stamps and such so why am I not getting benefits I deserve such as financial aid and such?

Answer 1

This government doesnt care about you or anyone except themselves- You have to find loop holes to survive. They tax everything so that they get their cut. I know its stupid because they tax our checks from work and then they tax the merchandise we buy. so if you really look at it closely they are making alot more than they assist people with- But let them keep on abusing the people, because one day we will get fed up and the courage enough to riot. So i tell you to remember the name of those who denied you services and those politicians who are only in it for greed and corruption. they will get theirs some day by some one who they consider is a nobody-

Answer 2

What makes you think you "deserve" financial aid?

Answer 4

Taxes, generally, is used to pay for Federal and State operating costs;  including benefits to eligible program participants. If you meet the required criteria you should receive benefits accordingly. But in your case your eligibility is determined by required criteria that you meet and unfortunately not that of your parents.
