TheBreeze..Dude… are you on crack???
Have you ever seen a break down of how much more the affluent pay in taxes? Here are some stats you may want to review before you repeat the dem’s standard “fair share” mantra;
According to data from the IRS, the bottom 50% percent of income earners pay approximately 4% of income taxes
The top 25% of income earners pay nearly 83% of the income tax burden, and the top 10% pay 65%.
The top 1 percent of income earners pay almost 35% of all income taxes.
The top 400 richest Americans paid 1.58% of total income taxes in 2000.
Maybe you need to further define fair.. perhaps instead you should look up the definition of jealousy.. seems to fit here.
You are right about one thing though, under Obama’s plan there will be big reward for the supposed winners of the tax hike.. it is called a LAYOFF and my company will be one the first that is forced to have one.
“No doubt you would have been just as successful in Russia or China.” Hmmm I have been going to China every year for many years and I see the same thing that I see here.. hard working risk takers and job providers are rewarded for their efforts… it is a global phenomen.
