OK, one more time r e a l l y s l o w.

"Nobody's really talking about this slice of the pie, but Mitt Romney's '47%' who pay no federal income tax include several thousand of the highest-income households in the country.

Because..... they....... pay...... little..... or...... no....... income...... tax..... and...... there...... is...... no...... wealth....... tax.

There is a lot that is left out of the discussion -- wait, you can't call it that, either, because its so very one-sided...

Clearly Mitt Romney didn't read the article either. He specifically said income tax. It's not like he differentiated. But I'm sure Romney appreciates your blind faith.

Oh please! Define "fair", and why his share isn't.

For the record, that comment was directed at LC. Excellent chart. I'm sure many will say he isn't covering enough others.

Even simpler example. Joe Schmo has $100 billion. He has no reportable earned income for any number of legitimate and illegitimate reasons**. How much income tax does he pay?

Hint....$0.

**tax shelters, offshore accounts, income lower than the limit needed to require income tax, under the table deals with mostly corrupt Democrat Congressmen and Senators, he keeps it under his mattress, whatever.

He wouldn't be able to do that if we had the FairTax (consumer tax) and neither would illegal immigrants, drug dealers. income tax cheats etc. etc. etc.

And one more thing. There are 300 mil Americans, 4000 is a drop in the bucket and the majority of those are almost certainly Democrats.

So Donald Duck, how does it feel having your Wall Street guy being ridiculed all over the place now (as a robot, etc). Just wait till SNL and the other late night comedians pick up even more steam on this...

Remember Tinay Fey and Sarah Palin!? I can see Russia from here...

That's Scrooge McDuck to you, an experienced, thrifty and honorable capitalist. Now Donald would be perfect as Oby's avatar. Nothing between the ears, and give him a dime and he'll have $10 spent inside of 5 minutes.

Since you think you're God, I'm not surprised you wouldn't know the difference. Here, here's a fly swatter. Go kill a few mosquitoes somewhere, make yourself useful. I'll give you a penny for every one you kill. If you're God you could bankrupt me before I can finish clicking "Post", but I ain't worried. Now shoo!
