Taxing the 227,202 with Taxable income over $1M WOULD NOT cut DEFICIT by 48%!

The rich could give 100 percent of their income and it would not even put a dent in the debt... We dont have a money problem we have an ENTITLEMENT problem..

If by "Entitlement problem", you mean, congressmen who feel they can spend our money on foreigners and foreign giveaways I'd agree with you.

When we stop giving countries money for nothing, and defending countries free of charge we can discuss cutting social security. When non essential foreign military bases are closed, and all of our obsolete embassies are closed than we can discuss cutting medicade and medicare. When our elected officials pay and pension equal the average Americans pay and pension than we can discuss cutting education.
