How about a minimum tax on ALL Americans of 10%?

Why do you get a free ride, when you are simply a parasite living off others as a lifestyle?

If we had more than the current 50% paying taxes, isn't it about "fairness"?

You'll NEVER get that past the Liberals, because vote-buying via the Taxes others pay is half their voterbase.

How about this ~ make good on the Republican promise when they peddled the Federal Income Tax (See 16th Amendment) that it would apply ONLY to those in the top 1% or 2% of income.

98% to 99% of all individual tax payers would NEVER pay any federal income tax.

Where did you people get the idea income tax was supposed to be levied on the working poor by the federal government? It's a preposterous thought really ~
