43 percent of American households do not pay any federal income tax . On the other hand, the top one-fifth of households pay 69 percent of the entire costs of the federal government.
The only reason the top one-fifth wage earners are not storming the White House with pitchforks is because THEY ARE TOO BUSY EARNING A LIVING. And employing thousands and thousands while they are at it.
And the 43% who don't contribute? Well, why wouldn't they vote for anything that would cause a tax increase? Of course, they should remember they might be employed by someone effected, but no matter. Or that with every tax increase, charitable donations, which I can only assume benefits some of those 43%, goes down.
Rediculous, frustrating and no way to run a country.

Imagine how much worse it is here in California.
Sadly, I don't need to imagine. I merely need to look out the window ...
