The rightwing LIES about taxes. They lump together Exxon, Walmart and the bilionaires with average citizens, truckdrivers and mom and pop stores and pretend they're on the same side.

Guess what, they're economically enemies. Walmart kills small businesses but they get the huge breaks for helping to ship our manufacturing overseas. Exxon gets more tax breaks and corporate welfare for gouging the citizens, truckdrivers and environment. Billionaires get off with hardly any taxes relative to their humungous wealth. Bushies even want them to have no estate taxes which would not only bankrupt the govermment but create a permanent billionaire and eventually trillionaire class which could control half the US economy but give back very little.

The rightwing accuses us of "class warfare" but they're the ones doing it to the middleclass. The book "Perfectly Legal" about the hidden small print of the Bush tax code proves that unless you're making over $500,000 per year (and are hedged against the dollar) you are being screwed, and Bushies knew what they were doing to us the whole time, screwing us. SO screw you for trying to defend the buzzards. They're crooks. They're no friends of the USA or its people. They're thieves and traitors. Just look at the fiscal mess they've created. How may trillions have been stolen? Is this a recession are are we headed fro DE-pression. Some of the numbers are the worst since right before the Great Depression which was also caused by unregulated economic elitist Republicans.
