He blames Congress for taking too many vacations, yet he is out of Washington more than he is in it. Plays golf every weekend. And has to mention that he got OBL. What an a$$hole.

47% of our citizens don’t pay taxes and the Dems want those who do pay taxes to pay even more?

I’d like to see EVERY income earner pay taxes, at the very least 1% of their income. Those who pay nothing don’t care how our tax money is spent because the money isn’t theirs to begin with. They have no invested interest in how Congress spends our money. Let that 47% carry some of the burden instead of making the middle class workers pay more out of their hard earned pay checks.

At 1%, if someone makes $300 a week they’d only be paying $3.00 in tax. (They already pay 7% into Social Security plus the employer pays another 7%). Take that $3.00 and multiply it by say 40 million wage earners who don’t pay taxes and we have $120 million. Now multiply that by 52 weeks.
I come up with $6,240,000,000 in a year that would be added to revenues. That’s billion, with a B. Is my math right?
