72% of American favor the Buffett Rule

[Chris]

Washington (CNN) - Hours before a crucial Senate vote over the so-called "Buffett Rule," a new national poll indicates that nearly three-quarters of Americans support the measure to require people earning $1 million a year or more to pay at least 30% in taxes.

According to a CNN/ORC International survey, 72% favor the bill, which is named for billionaire investor Warren Buffett, who has argued that it's unfair that he pays a lower tax rate than his secretary. Twenty-seven percent oppose the measure.

The 400 highest-earning taxpayers in the U.S. reported a record $105 billion in total adjusted gross income in 2006, but they paid just $18 billion in tax, new Internal Revenue Service figures show. That works out to an average federal income tax bite of 17%--the lowest rate paid by the richest 400 during the 15-year period covered by the IRS statistics. The average federal tax bite on the top 400 was 30% in 1995 and 23% in 2002.

"people earning $1 million a year or more to pay at least 30% in taxes"

Left out.... "this is earnings that have already been taxed once"

"This is earnings that can just as easily be left in the bank to earn interest"

"This is also WEALTH REDISTRIBUTION"

Reagan wanted the top rate to be 28%.

Obama wants the top rate to be 30% per the Buffett Rule.

I think Reagan and Obama and Buffett are right.

The American people agree with me.

You guys are out in right field.
