>>Insignificantly so.<<

when the top 1% underpay their taxes to the tune of billions of dollars, it isn't insignificant. not to mention that the gap widens once you include total government expenditures instead of the total payments which way under fund total expenditures.

ahhh, okay. what's a few billion between friends, anyway? ;-)

the main point is that we are stealing from people not yet born and lack any sort of conscience about it.

if reality actually played a role in america, we'd lock ourselves up as worse than petty thieves.
