5 The poor pay a much higher percentage of their income in total taxes than the rich. How many times do I have to prove you wrong before you give up and crawl back to wherever disgusting teabaggers go at night. |

3 You have not proven a god damned thing because you have not disproven the fact that millionaires pay 4 times what the middle class pays. You are still an idiot and a liar. |

6 You are still crazy. What I've repeated over and over again - and provided proof of - is: The poor pay a much higher percentage of their income in total taxes than the rich. How many times do I have to prove you wrong before you give up and crawl back to wherever disgusting teabaggers go at night. |

3 Again Slew and Le Dumbo show how stupid they are. This country is NOT a democracy. It is a Constitutional Republic. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_governme... If it were a democracy, it would be more to your liking because democracies are mob ruled, rather than ruled by laws. Laws are in place to protect minorities. If either of you had a brain, you would know that little factoid. You both are still idiots, liars, and stupid. |

3 The important fact is not what percentage each contributor pays based on their assets, but who pays the TAX LIABILITY as a whole. Right now the people who contribute NOTHING to our tax liability are the ones complaining that the people who pay ALL of it don't pay enough. Back to my apartment analogy. Think of our tax liability as rent. Who pays the rent? It shouldn't matter how much each contributor has left over after taxation, if taxation was 'fair' as all of you like to whine. The bottom 50%, the ones that pay nothing, are not penniless on the side of the street. They still manage to buy smartphones, flat screens, spinning rims and beer and pot and cigarettes. The tax rate argument is all smoke. Its a political ploy that small minds lock onto like gospel. |

2 NO THEY DON'T, especially when you figure what the "poor" actually GET from STATE AND FEDERAL entitlement programs. Some of them GET $40K a YEAR or MORE from entitlement programs, yet pay ZERO income taxes or SS. Sure, they pay sales taxes, maybe property taxes and vehicle registration, and maybe some "sin" taxes, but BIG WHOOP. Then they deduct SOME, if not MOST of that on their "tax forms". It's a SCAM that needs to END. Whatever taxes they "pay", they get up to 10 TIMES that amount back from entitlement programs. So, in the end, they aren't paying ANYTHING. They are NON-productive people, often in this country ILLEGALLY, who contribute NOTHING to the government. The terms for describing these "able-bodied" people are: FREELOADER, DEADBEAT, PARASITE, FRAUD, LOSER, ANTI-AMERICAN, DEPENDENT, SOCIALIST, COMMUNIST, ANARCHIST, etc. |

2 Hey IDIOT, HALF of the country doesn't even PAY INCOME TAXES, didn't you know that?? If they don't make enough to pay income taxes, then how do they pay more in TAXES?? Spare me the "sales taxes" arguement. That's beating a dead horse, and you don't even count whatever "entitlements" that these FREELOADERS get to offset it. |

3 You can play games with all the numbers you want. But the topic here is the Federal Income Tax since that is the vehicle you have chosen to punish the rich with. Want to have a progressive sales tax based on your income? Go for it. Let's see how far you get. Everyone has an obligation to contribute to what they receive from the Federal Government. EVERYONE. I don't care if you make $100 per week, or $10,000,000 per week. You both have an obligation to pay for the Government. At this time, 51% of households pay nothing in Federal Income Taxes. That needs to be corrected. The lower income people need to pay their fair share. |

1 Sociopath, Do not come on here and lie. Nobody believes you. Not your DOJO in the Sky, Your bad azz tough gurl persona, Your Brilliant Investor Lies, Your 100% payment of taxes on your 100% Government Checks. You a Genetic Mutant and all the posturing in the world on Topix with strangers, does not detract from the waste of Humanity that you represent. Go away and come back as one of the other Personalities that Occupies your Brain! "We" believe your Multiple Personalities more than we do your inebriated self. |

ScorpioIt's a frustrating and rather disappointing day because you have to cope with delays and setbacks to your plans. A travel arrangement may have to be postponed or there could be a hitch about something connected with education. You're also feeling subdued and tired, and you're longing to spend some time on your own although this may not be possible. Don't worry, this difficult mood will soon blow over.
