It does appear that way. But, speaking for myself, I am not one of the “special people”. I am just a regular guy with a regular job that I get up and go to each day. So, I guess it’s only fair that I pull the weight for those that don’t work and the “special people” who don’t pay their taxes.

Broad brush painting a pretty truthful picture. I’m betting that non-payers, whether tax cheats or by law, outnumber the payers, and that is the crux of the bidding war for votes, and the foundation for the class warfare that now exists in the country.

The tax cheats, and the non-payers, will legislate the payers into oblivion as a lobby group or political party. This ought not to be, and by law it must be illegal for anyone who earns income to not pay taxes on that income. I would say 10 percent, and no more, but payment is important to stop the class warfare.

No one should be allowed to escape the heavy hand of government where the collection of taxes is concerned. Not the poor, not the rich, not the in between. By golly if the very sustenance on the table is taxed, then tell me why anyone should escape their responsibility to the great protector in Washington DC.

As our latest Bush Basher is so eager to tell the American people, there are not two sets of rules, one for the rich and powerful, and the other for the pawns and sheep. Want to bet on that?

More true than not.

I have seen a lot of liberal friends and relatives take money under the table and then promote tax and spend politics.

They never seem to "practice what they preach".
