I have this discussion routinely with union mentality workers with household incomes close to $100K.

These Dems are so frustrated thinking the rich are not paying their taxes. They buy the line. I showed them the IRS data showing households over $75K pay 75% of all personal income taxes. I point out that they are the Rich target group.

I gave up they still think it will be someone else getting soaked to pay for more welfare.

Here in Ontario we have to help single welfare mothers and we are always going on about how they need food banks and christmas presents, and just all kinds of stuff. A single mother of two working at minimum wage earns $8.00 and hour in Ontario. So her income for 40 hours is $320.00 a week. A single mother of two on welfare gets $520.00 a week, and she is the one everyone is worried about.
