Liberals Are Clueless About Economics or They're Liars, Take Your Pick!
SEE HERE I always find it amazing to listen to boneheads saying that the rich don't pay their fair share when in fact the rich pay almost all the taxes. The lowest 43 percent of taxpayers pay no income tax at all. If you don't know the figures read the article here and do a little research. You'll be surprised to find that the top 1% are paying 40% of the income taxes and the top 5% are paying 60% of the taxes. Somehow that just doesn't look at all fair to me and I'm well down the feeding chain from the 60% crowd. So what it comes down to is the whiners at the bottom want to have someone else pay their way. I suppose that's human nature, but not the noble human nature we should aspire to, more the kind epitomized by liars, cheats and con-men. "There ain't no such thing as a free lunch" TANSTAAFL as my favorite science fiction author Robert Heinlein used to say. Everyone should pay their share and perhaps then we'd get a fairer and more honest government too.
