The 10% highest income bracket already pay 70% of the total tax revenues collected

well duhhhhhhhhhh! that's exactly the problem

the disparity of wealth has been growing since the early 80's... the corporatacracy continues to ship jobs overseas and across the border, Wall St continues it's fraud unabated

so if this trend continues at some point there will be only 400 people who pay taxes in the U.S.,, each one of these people will be "earning" $100 Billion per year, their families will be slobs who live off the trust funds... the rest of the population will be earning $8 per hour... and Ann will still complain that the rich are overburdened with taxes while her grandchildren are sent to work in sweatshops and coalmines for $2.25 per hour

more American exceptionalism

oh by the way... individual and corporate taxes in the U.S. are the lowest in history compared to GDP

and the ignorant teaparty types think they are paying too much

i guess ya just can't fix stupid
