C’mon Folks you are missing the simple math of this.
I believe well over 40% of Americans pay no income tax-ALL Obama voters no doubt.
Any multiplier of zero, is of course zero.
So when your tax rate is zero, what have you got to lose by supporting higher taxes on others?
And no matter what happens those 41%ers (I think it is 51%) will still be freeloaders for what ever the best lying politician offers them.
