    Could it be because you liberals are self-absorbed assholes who only care about punishing the rich and not actually helping the poor?

    Nope .. it's because the poor already get more than enough tax breaks as it is IMHO.

    A family of four earning less than $50k can pretty much get away with paying nothing at all in taxes ... you think I should be championing for that amount to be increased to $75k or $100k ?

    p.s. I don't think the chart points out that taxes are tougher to pay for the poorest 20% of Americans .. it simply points out that as a percentage of their income .. they pay much more than the top 1% of Americans. It makes no reference whatsoever as to the difficulty that the top 1% or the bottom 20% have in paying their taxes, this is something that you have created in your own mind in order to create an argument.

    I don't think it is very difficult at all for the bottom 20% to pay little to nothing ... just as it is not difficult at all for the top 1% to pay even less than that.

    Yes.

    Or do you have some other magical reason as to how merely raising taxes on the rich is going to help the disappearing middle class?

    If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.

    My draft card was 1H. I would've been drafted in Aug. of '73. Yes, I would've served.

    Well, aw shucks...Aren't you the good little Boy Scout.
    Would have served but didn't.
    Do you realize that the Pledge was written in 1892 by a SOCIALIST from Indiana.

    Howard Zinn is a pussy afraid of freedom. He doesn't like saying the pledge because the pledge reinforces the ideas of America's greatness and national sovereignty, and as long as Americans are proud to be Americans living in America, then his communist day dream can never happen.

    Yah....Damn commies who won't say the pledge written by a SOCIALIST.

    Yes I was, problem?

    No I didn't volunteer, problem?

    Don't care who wrote the pledge, said it for 12 years. I'm a patriot, why?
    Because millions died for my freedom. I have respect. Problem?
