Yeah, today, wait until Obama is done with them....maybe better not to wait at all. You must remember Obama thinks the "Rich" are anyone who makes more than $250,000 - I know of many businessmen who worked for near nothing 24 hours a day for years before they built their business up to where they could make that kind of money - "fair share" ? that just isn't fair to slave years for a reward and have the government confiscate it..
Fair share to me is that a working family paying 25% in taxes while a rich asshole like Mittens is paying 13% is just fucking crazy.
The tax structure accellerates the fact that there has been a shift of the wealth to the top, and that's the problem.
If the middle class were making the kinds of wages they were in the 1950's, they'd be right there with you. Instead, they are really unsympathetic to the guy who makes $250K and thinks it's okay to pay his secretary minimum wage with no health benefits...
That guy's a douchebag, no matter how many hours he puts in.
So Mr.voice of reason - you think that someone who earned $250,000 for the first time in his life should pay as if he was worth huundreds of millions and living off his (already taxed once) investments? Yeah, you need your head examined, or more likely you just hate anyone better off than you.
If he's making 250K, he can pay his fair share.
Not seeing the problem here.
