>> People are convinced that 50% of their fellow citizens don't pay any taxes despite the fact that they pay a higher percentage of their total income in taxes than romney does ... who is waging class warfare? More bullshit. Average effective income tax rates in the US under the Bush cuts have ranged from about 9% to 7.5%. Either of those rates, when combined with SS & Medicare rates, amounts to a lower rate than Romney paid for 2011 -- and Romney made charitable contributions of better than $5 million and still paid a higher effective rate than these people. And that is before you count the EITC. You keep saying stuff that is just right out of the liberal media, none of which is accurate. Every post you've made on this subject has been factually inaccurate.
