The press is howling because they know Romney is right. There’s no other way to slice that pie. The bottom half of the population pay little or nothing in income taxes. That’s the reality. The liberal media is always hollering about wanting the “rich” to pay more income taxes. The top 50% already pay almost 100%. The top 1% pay close to 40% of all income taxes, the top 5% pay about 60%, and the top 10% pay about 70%. It would be hysterical if it weren’t so tragic.

They want the rich to pay their “Fair Share”. What exactly is “FAIR”? They never define it.
