18. And as a group of course they pay
Edited on Tue Sep-20-11 03:03 PM by EC
a higher Amount. But individually, they pay a lower percent since their income is based on interest on accounts (trust funds) and unearned income (stock).


The right just loves to lump them all togeather and say "see as a group they pay more of the share of all taxes than the other 90% combined. Well, they also OWN 90% of all cash, they should be paying 90% of the taxes, too. So now they are paying 70% of all taxes, that's still not enough.
