I would hazard a guess that minimum wage earners in middle America living in their double-wides are not big Obama supporters.
That's okay. The inhabitants of all the rundown projects across the nation more than offset the number of non-Obama supporters throughout middle America.
As evidence by the posts on here, the greedy slackers and entitlement leaches wont be happy until the ambitious and productive are carrying them 100%. Unfortunately they will soon tire of paying their "fair share" As the left will learn when you penalize and punish productivity, you will start to get a lot less, the only solution then is to raise taxes on everyone.
They may get paid that money but the do not earn it. It is those who worked and did the labor and built the products that earned the money and the rich that stripped it off the top. Capitolism sucks
Yep and the bottom 40% pay no income tax at all. Yet everyone's vote counts the same. It's kind of scary, isn't it?
I can't wait until the non-payers reach 51%. What a wonderful world it will be.

Should happen soon. They are at 47% today and this includes those that get back all their taxes and plus some due to credits.
With massive job losses we just might hit 50% or more next year.

In order to make money you need to spend money. Someone needs to build that factory so workers can work. Someone needs to provide the materials so workers have something to work on.
You can't have capitalism without capital. And the poor doesn't have that kind of capital to invest.
Liberal and in in the Top 10% (household income is in the Top 5%) and agree the top earners are not paying their fair share.
As for the corporate tax rate - they don't pay at the rate. Many of the most profitable companies pay little or nothing. It don't matter what the rate is, as long as you have a good tax professional and a lot of write-offs. (You know they still get to write off executive compensation of any amount!)
