The Forgotten Man

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.

As we collectively head down the road of diminishing returns any and all arguments will be conceived to maintain the current state of wide spread inequality.

Unfortunately you are all such slaves to obsolete belief systems you will have hard time understanding why the US is imploding before you eyes.

We undoubtedly are in for some inhumane times.

If I’m not mistaken, the top 5% of wage earners pay over 50% of the taxes.

And if I’m not mistaken they possess well over 50% of the nations wealth.

Or, to put it another way, have more equity than the bottom 95% combined.

Sounds like they are getting a prime deal!

Exactly, kewp.

If they feel they’re so burdened by the “parasites” of the world, they’re free to give up their wealth and become gardeners, masons, mechanics, factory workers (opps! don’t have those anymore!), etc. Then they can make $10/hour and finally be relieved of all those hefty taxes they’re paying. Will they stop bitching then?

Who’s stepping up? Anyone…anyone??? Didn’t think so!
