If you figger in income tax, state tax, sales tax, the "hidden" tax, tax on tax, inflation, etc., etc....even the poorest SOB in America is probably paying around 40% in taxes. Easy.

Sad thing is, even if the Feds taxed everyone at 100% they still couldn't cover their bets. Ain't enough tea in China.

As someone who is debt free, with money in the bank, a few assets, and modest investments...I'm beginning to get a case of the ass. No doubt who they're going to get to pay for their extravagance...cain't get blood outta a turnip...and they can bleed me.

At least the rich can move their money offshore. And don't think they won't, big help for the economy...huh.
