LOL This is from Cato the link is http://www.cato.org/research/articles/reynolds-040208.html

" Census figures say the top 5 percent collected 21 percent of all personal income in 2001, up from 20.3 percent in 1993. Measured in constant 2001 dollars, however, a family needed more than $164,104 to be counted among the top 5 percent in 2001, while anything above $136,539 would have qualified in 1993." sorry I am off 15-20 grand. So eat this story up.

This proposal is taking money because Medicare in general is paid by every taxpayer. Although the Medicare cost may not go up it still is a cost that people have to pay. How about we just get rid of this program in general. Makes sense to me.

Now I think you owe me an apology as you where off the deep end and thanks for saying that someone else is a real black conservative because being a real black conservative means agreeing with you hook line and sinker.
