Your contempt for the middle class is noted.

And your contempt for us soon-to-be-minority who are paying all the federal income taxes, is noted.

However, if you're convinced that over half the people are Democrats then how do you expect to win another election?

Because Zero is such a disaster, a lot of Dems won't even be able to fathom another four years of him. 2012 is going to be an election like 1980. And it will be our best, and probably last, chance to save ourselves from total collapse. The 49% that today pay no federal income taxes, used to be just 35%, then 40%, then 45%. Pretty soon that 49% will be 50.1%, and if we still have this same tax system at the point, it is GAME OVER.

We minority of working suckers will forever be outnumbered at the ballot box. The tyrannical free-loading majority will keep voting for and insisting on higher and higher taxes us who are paying for it all.

I’ll tell you this: within a few years, when today’s 49% becomes 50.1%, we’re going to see top marginal federal income tax rates going back to 90% or more, capital gains taxes going through the roof, massive taxes applied to 401(k) and IRA withdrawals, etc.

And it will be due to the stupidity of those who don’t see this obvious train wreck coming and realizing the only hope of stopping it is to get *everyone* paying some federal taxes so that *everyone* will feel the pain whenever Fedzilla proposes more spending binges.

Answer the question. If a candidate ran on a platform of doubling your taxes would you vote for them? Yes or no?

Excellent post.

Please make sure you save it as you will be needing to repost it, or a version of it, throughout the coming months!
