Using Obama's own numbers, if the "rich" were taxed at 99% that would have just barely covered the deficits in his first years with nothing left for future increases or paying down the debt. Newsflash the "rich" don't have THAT much money.
So all you lazy fat ass moochers get off your couch, get a job, and start paying your own way.
I suggest that for a moment you stop being willfully ignorant (if in fact your ignorance is willfull) and look up Marginal Tax Rates. You (assume you work) pay a % on the first $30 k you earn, the 1% pays the SAME % on the first $30 k they earn. The Marginal Tax % goes up for the more earned income.
Do you comprehend?
Buy a calculator mathwit, my numbers are based on Obama's numbers associated with his punishment tax increase on the "rich".
