i never said anything about rich fuckers making 120k, i was talking more towards the billionaires that are getting tax cuts right now... Obama's threshold is $250k+, if you make less than that you pay less taxes. And i consider being Patriotic as willing to help out your fellow american who is in need of help and to stand and fight for the welfare of your country. If that means that my taxes are raised then so be it. BTW, im in that tax bracket @ 350k but i'm willing to take a hit to promote more new business and give the low to mid working class more $$$ so that our nation can begin to prosper once again. When the working class has more money, they spend more money thus keeping me in business.
its kinda like an engine, where the lower class workers are the tiny little pieces inside and the fuel that keep the big stuff operating right.. right now our country has FORGED ALUMINUM pistons, DIAMOND CUT cams, etc.. but its got rusty sticky valves, recycled oil and filter, and its running on 86octane watered down dirty fuel.
how's that for an analogy.
