In the end, the poor pay a much larger percentage of their 'discretionary income' in taxes than the rich. They might not pay federal income tax, but they pay 5%-7% sales tax and all the myriad others from taxes on federal, state and regional on gasoline to phone taxes to liquor taxes to taxes on cigarettes and toll roads and utilities.

When will the Dems get behind dropping the Cigarette and Liquor taxes and really help the poor. They tried to drop the Children's insurance scam on the backs of the poor by raising cigarette taxes again. :-)
