"while the median income grades paid an average effective tax rate of 14.1%"
That is a reasonable rate to live in this great country. To an ingrate like you, I am sure that seems like a ripoff.
"(defined as over $110 million in income that year) paid an effective average federal tax rate of 22%"
Pinheads like you think that an individual paying $24,200,000 per year to live here is not good enough. You think YOU deserve more from this guy (because he is a smarter, harder working individual I guess). If the median guy makes $60,000 (you did not mention what the median was), that guy pays $8,460. When people like you that have no sense of fairness want to set the rules you would just make it so the normal guy did not chip in at all, and have somebody else pay all the bills. This lack of fairness is why you can blame Presidents like Reagan with TREASON with NO EVIDENCE AT ALL. You should be ashamed of yourself. Just a mooching begger. I have respect for the guy who pays $24,200,000 a year to live here, and you have contempt. We are different people in this way.
"The burden of America is borne on the backs of the middle class"
Since you obviously feel that 14.1% is too much for the average joe, what should this rate be iyo? And note that if you are in the bottom 40% or so you pay 0%. I know your party actually supports GIVING THESE PEOPLE MONEY TO LIVE HERE, but I think that is a total crock. Living in this great country for free is as good as it gets.
">>> Your fantasies are not true"
You just proved they were not fantasies. Your sense of entitlement is not fair, and does nobody any good, including the ones you think you are helping. |
