So much talk about how the wealthy deserve this, and the rich need that. Where do you fall in all this?
What happens to the wealthy tax base when states implement a massive tax hike on the wealthy? It disappears. They move.

Where do they move?
If federal income tax rates are increased are they going to move to Mexico?
And you say "massive tax hike" like everyone's talking about a massive tax hike or something. :2razz:

"At a White House news conference yesterday, Obama urged Republicans to set aside their rejection of tax increases as part of a deficit-reduction plan. Democrats are willing to accept some “painful cuts” to favored programs, and Republicans must concede that some taxes may have to be raised, he said."
And I had to vote other. I make what I need to have the life I like and save for retirement and I don't know anyone who likes their job more than I do.
And here's where everybody else lands. Repeatedly.

That said, the flat tax is the only thing that can qualify as "equality". Anything else is just jiberish. Imho.
Whether you are wealthy or poor, you have to pay your fair share. If you don't, you are subjected to persecution.
To Ayn Rand's fantasy island?
basically, what that says is that people are willing to sacrifice a bit more to reduce the
deficit, but only if government slashes it's spending. your blogger is a complete propagandist buffoon
attempting to spin the topic that americans are all for increased taxes unconditionally, when in fact
only 3% of those polled agreed with that notion.
Let 'em go. It's not like they're contributing. I refuse to respond to fear tactics.
Huh? I don't think anyone has proposed to reduce the deficit by raising taxes alone. Boop's claim was that most people support tax increases, not that they support tax increases to the exclusion of spending cuts. There's nothing spin-ish about what she said at all.
But they never support tax increases for themselves. Isn't that just so cute? I think so.
I'll take a tax hike to help get this fixed. :shrug:
Where did you get this foolish notion?
are you a DC politician? that's who i took it he was referring to.
