I worked very hard, including up to 20 hrs a week of overtime, for 35 years so I could be part of the 47%.
If you don't want to pay taxes, you are free to move to Somalia.

Romney spoke the truth about the 47%.

No, he didn't. And if the 47% don't pay federal income tax, they still pay a much larger percentage of their disposable income in all taxes than the top, say 25%. Including but not limited to federal excise taxes and state and county sales taxes and property taxes.
