Just take out the loopholes, disallow them to hire lawyers with degrees in accounting and make the folks pay what they owe.Ame®icano;4165591 said:I asked this question on another thread but here we go again.
Obama keep talking about rich not paying their "fair share" but I never heard what that "fair share" really is. There is an argument on both sides, but I would like hear your opinion, how much exactly is the "fair share" rich and/or others should pay? Give me exact number.
Warren Buffet came out on the side of the rich paying more. 'Course he just made $63,000,000 and paid $7,000,000. 17% and that's about what my wife and I pay. The whole goddam thing is unfair. Make all of them pay the 35% their bracket indicates they should pay and it will work.
I told of my friend who started a construction business on the MS Gulf coast over 30 years ago. He has made $2 to $5 million a year since the 1980's. He told me that if he ever had to pay more than 20% he would fire his accountant.
