Damn Med, you do realize that the poor pay almost no income tax, the middle class pays 30% and the top 10% of earners pay 70%. Not very equal is it? But then I guess your not for equality of man, you just want a free ride because your not a rich man.
Corporations are the real scum bags, I would wager that half of the big ones pay almost no income tax at all. Did you know that Goldman Sachs income tax was a paltry 16 million dollars last year? Thats laughable considering just the mortgage division 1 year ago made 16 million dollars in profit in 36 hours. Something wrong when you make 36 billion dollars but only pay .044% tax. Instead of trying to steal the peoples money try going after the big companies and corporations who aren't paying their fair share.
