What, exactly, are you whining about?

If I didn't throw the liberals a bone then the liberals would whine that they weren't thrown a bone!

Can't win when your trying to appease a liberal.

Liberalism = whining.

The Romneys paid $1.9 million in federal income tax for 2011. How is that freeloading?

According MSM, or, who a person talks to, it is said that most Americans pay about 35% in taxes, and of course, the tax rates or brackets, if I'm not mistaken were higher under clinton and reagan, so, basically, the more you make, the less they take.

And some might ask, well, why is that?
and it is because people of higher income brackets hire tax accountants and attorneys to file a legal tax return and find all sorts of deductions and write-offs that just plain 'ol ordinary Americans can't.

so, yes, willard is a recipient of Uncle Sam welfare, or, corporate welfare, his tax rate is what, 14% ?

It used to be, the more you make the more they take, but # 43 changed that for people like willard.
So, yes, willard is a freeloader, and the remainder of us are the 47%, leeches of american society.
How does that make everyone feel?

I'm so glad, I'm so glad, I'm so glad that I can go to bed at night knowing people like willard are creating jobs for us needy americans, thanks willard.

Top 5-10% pays a rate of 11.36%
Top 10-25% pays a rate of 8.25%
Top 25-50% pays a rate of 5.56%

So where's willard's 14% ?

He's still a freeloader, not paying his fair share.
And what about his amnesty for his involvment with UBS?
Obviously, someone who files a summary has something to hide. What's Willard hiding?

These tax rate changes will take effect beginning in 2013 absent further legislation.
