3. They already pay most of the tax burden. Sure they do, but in the past, they've progressively carried EVEN MORE of the tax burden, especially when America NEEDED them to. After WWII, the tax rate on the highest earners was 91% ( To which they say, "Yeah, but no one actually PAID that!" ) Which is true, most paid like 60%, and felt like they'd WON! It's simple. Its a third world, exploitive attitude. It's not a civilized, progressive, make things better attitude. The rich always do it, all over the world. And those countries die. But... Joe Six Pack has been scammed. And who is to blame? The right has been doing this stuff for years. But the left is letting them get away from it. They can't even engage, because they're scared of being labeled. Obama included. I'm so tired of the dialog being controlled, with such confidence, by the guys that are wrong.
