Do you feel that the 51% who pay no federal income taxes should start paying taxes, yes or no??

If we are discussing "fair" tax then absolutely. Why should people who receive services from the govenrment pay zero?

No. They both pay the same taxes in highly disproportionate amounts.

Are there any wealthy that pay the same proportion in taxes as the poor?

Higher taxes will not save our economy

Higher taxes will not save our economy

Repeat after me... Our economy has fundamental flaws right now. Democrat/Republican politicians and businesses are in bed. Businesses are able to make huge bets and if they lose the taxpayers pay for IT.

Then those same parties want you to spend your time hating the otherside, while they both STEAL FROM YOU AND US.

Democrats are stealing too. Please open your eyes.

I know a forensic accountant...yes I believe ur correct...do you think Paulson engineered some of this? I know its been going on since the 70's.....

while people post partisan b.s. on here the US is being raped and pillaged 4sure.... I tried to finish tax law in law school....too dry but thats where the big money is bcs tax lawyers work for the people w. money in Zurich...who pay zero taxes in US and are billionaires.

So you are for raising taxes . Sounds like you agreee with the CEO that taxes should be raised, the only difference is that he wants to raise it on 1% of Americans and you want to raise it on 51%, but the fact is that you both want to raise them.
