Scroll down to the second graph. I would post it but don’t know how.
Everyone needs to be made aware of the reality of this Buffet Rule.
Our problem is SPENDING...not insufficient Taxes.

Apparently completely lost on the left end of the political scale.
What is one supposed to think of those who profess ever increasing revenues are the answer to everything?
IOW give more of what the left has been spending so that they won’t spend as much?
Tax cuts for the rich? Sounds just horrible, until one injects a little truth, tax cuts for taxpayers, keeping in mind that the tax payers are subsidizing the great 47 percent who don’t have any skin in the game.
I’m not sure what impending financial disaster, out of control government at every level is capable of producing, but if we don’t some how reign in the insane spending on things government should not be involved in, much less those things authorized, we are sure to find out and frankly the nation will be wishing we had gone for solutions rather than blaming one side or the other.
The libs aren't smart enough to know that even animals are smart enough to move out of the way when they know they are a target. Never mind people who are smart enough to become gazillionaires. So, I would bet a cyber-nickel that if it's ever instituted: 1.) Warren Buffett won't pay more taxes under the "Buffett Rule", and 2.) Gov't revenues will decrease and US debt will increase.
So IMO, it's much worse than the above graphic!
