I'd still like to know their definition of "rich"????

the top 1% income earners pay 40% of the tax revenues - HOW MUCH MORE do the Democrats want them to pay???

personally, I can see a 50% tax on income/bonuses beyond $5 million, be cause NOBODY's worth that! - but when they start talking about $100,000- $1,000,000; this is the 'S' corp small business range - ALOT of jobs are created in this area and more taxes are significantly going to reduce job creation and increase unemployment

You're not being very patriotic with that rhetoric. According to Biden you must hate America.

It is amazing to see all these taxes put together in one list!!!

Painful to say the least!!

Why can't we have a fiscally conservative (balanced budget and low/reasonable taxes), socially compassionate (pro-choice, for gay rights and faith based initiative), internationally isolationist (no more wars unless we are/to be attacked) president?? Did we ever??

I think the closest to that description is Ron Paul!

2000 Candidate Bush was that president!
