Obama is trying to create class hate by claiming the rich don't pay enough taxes. He has no problem with 40k a plate dinners for fund raising though. Simpletons think if the rich were made to pay more this countries problems would go away. Let me tell you there aren't enough to make a dent in tax revenue. I do say tax loop holes should be taken away but the tax rate on those making 200K plus is high enough. Do you know how small of a percent of people across the country are making over 150K? It's really small.
What does any of this drivel have to do with Willard's tax proposal? As you stated, the percentage of people making over $150k is rather small as it relates to the total population.
So, "oldtimer", do you feel that, oh...200+ million Americans should pay MORE taxes so that those fortunate few at the top (myself included) should pay LESS??? Seriously? You want to help pay for my next vacation (Thanks!
I'm thinking Cape Verde), or Romney's next car elevator in one of his several mansions, with an increase in
your taxes???
There should be a flat tax rate for everyone with no deductions but people are just to stupid to figure it out. If everyone paid a flat 15% tax on what they made the amount of taxes the government got would go through the roof. I don't care if you make 10K or 10 million it should be the same. With a flat tax the amount paid to the government would go down for the overwhelming amount of tax payers.
A flat rate hammers the poor, smacks around the middle class, and is a veritable windfall for the wealthy. There is a reason why Steve Forbes never gains any traction with that idea.
