Yeah, imagine me trying to talk about the most discussed and controversial tax. Who cares about the income tax or that 50% of the population does not pay it?

How dare I have the audacity to point out that the people who do NOT pay it are the loudest screechers against reducing it and for raising it? Those who do not pay their fair share must be punished after all.

Now why don’t you tell me how much of that tax the top 5% of income earners pay for surely I must be mis-informed?

Nice red herring wrt GE too.

The income tax is currently paid by the TOP 50% of income earners and is still disproportionately leveled up a “narrow” segment of tax payers, GE notwithstanding.

I'm sorry, but you have only the fulminations of Robama's acolyte Sean Hannity to support your idea. There are no polls out there demonstrating anything of the kind.

All real Americans oppose taxes of any kind and accept them only due to dire necessity.

The federal personal income tax has failed.

BTW, if you taxed individuals the way you tax corporations when it comes to income most everybody in this country would owe far less than they currently pay, and those who pay nothing still would owe nothing.

Please restrict the discussion to the topic your side selected ~ to wit, the federal personal income tax.
