If you keep avoiding specifics, you need no facts and have nothing to defend. Simple jabs with nothing behind it. I see the ploy, but it doesn't accomplish much, does it?
if you want to talk taxes let's throw some facts into it:
-Tax revenue as % of GDP is 14% this year vs historical 17-20% from the mid 50's through Clinton and Bush.
-400 people in this country have more wealth than 50% of the population combined. what do you want the politicians to do about this bro? Take it away from the rich and redistribute it to the poor? lol.
-Average income for the bottom 90% is $31k. why is that? Do you suppose they have any control over that? Maybe through education, or working harder or smarter?
-Average income for the top one hundredth of 1 percent is $27 million/yr. And? We can't all be wealthy bro. Again, what do you want politicians to do about this? How would raising taxes on those people level the playing field in any other way than making them a little less rich? It's not going to make the poor any richer...unless the gov't starts paying people to be poor.
-From 1979 to 2007, the bottom 80% lost share of American wealth, while the top 20% gained 30% of the wealth, and the top 1% increased their share 120%. Again, your point? It sounds like you expect the dems to play Robin Hood for you. Is that correct?
-Before Reagan, the top tax brackets from the 1930s forward was in the 70% to 90% range, now its 35% and some bozos call Obama a socialist for proposing 39%. that would make every republican President from Hoover forward a socialist as well, except Reagan. I could live with a 4% increase to the top tax bracket. I sure would like to see a complete overhaul of frivolous government spending though (yeah right, like that will happen).
-Reagan increased taxes too, he just preferred to do it to middle class people. Even Reagan realized he created too much debt by his tax cuts, something that todays radical right will never acknowledge.
There, now we have some facts to discuss!
