SEE LINK FOR DETAILS:

Tax Day 2012 has been a busy one for the propagandists of the Republican Party. After the GOP successfully filibustered the Buffett Rule in the Senate, House Speaker John Boehner claimed that Republicans are "listening to the American people." Of course, what Boehner, Mitch McConnell, Mitt Romney and their allies don't mention is that the Democratic proposal to implement a minimum 30 percent tax on millionaires is wildly popular. Then again, the list of things Republicans don't want you to know about taxes is a long one.

Here are the top 10 :

President Obama Cut Taxes for Almost All Working Americans
Tax Cuts Don't Pay for Themselves
Almost All Working Americans Pay Taxes
The GOP's "Job Creators" Don't Create Jobs
Low Capital Gains Taxes Fuel Income Inequality...
...But Not Investment
The Estate Tax Has Virtually No Impact on Family Farms and Businesses
Income Inequality is at an 80 Year High...
...While the Federal Tax Burden is at 60 Year Low
Which of the $1 Trillion in Tax Breaks Will GOP End?
