Sure, but I take it with a grain of salt, you should too.
No, I don't know anyone that has lost their job to be honest with you? And when people do, I don't doubt that it happens, is it possible to.....:wtf:....get a new job?
Sorry, I didn't realize that it was my responsibility to feed other peoples kids?
Yeah, I suppose you may be right, but I could win the lottery too, so what's your point?
Yeah, actually I own stock in Exxon, so I am always glad to hear that they are doing well and taking care of their 1000s of employees and shareholders.
Yup, redistributing money, that's called SOCIALISM, are you saying they shouldn't be allowed to make money? WTF? I bet you were all for Billary's idea to take profits from private oil companies and give them to "others" whoever they are.
Coorporations DO NOT PAY TAXES, you do.
It's called a "free market", they do as they wish. If it's as bad as you say, then they will lose money, and thus change.
Here's why, these stats are from the IRS:
The top 1% pay over a third, 34.27% of all income taxes. (Up from 2003: 33.71%) The top 5% pay 54.36% of all income taxes (Up from 2002: 53.80%). The top 10% pay 65.84% (Up from 2002: 65.73%). The top 25% pay 83.88% (Down from 2002: 83.90%). The top 50% pay 96.54% (Up from 2002: 96.50%). The bottom 50%? They pay a paltry 3.46% of all income taxes (Down from 2002: 3.50%). The top 1% is paying nearly ten times the federal income taxes than the bottom 50%! And who earns what? The top 1% earns 16.77% of all income (2002: 16.12%). The top 5% earns 31.18% of all the income (2002: 30.55%). The top 10% earns 42.36% of all the income (2002: 41.77%); the top 25% earns 64.86% of all the income (2002: 64.37%) , and the top 50% earns 86.01% (2002: 85.77%) of all the income.
That's why, I also attached a picture with a chart so you don't have to read if you don't like to.!
I think that you may be a little mis informed about the reality of America, and how Americans are living. Think about everything you just said, then look around you. Does it make sense? Enough with the propaganda already sheeesh.:thumbsup:
Sorry, I wasn't able to attach the picture with the graphs, so I guess you probably won't be able to understand this and I probably just wasted my time.
Hey I got the pic after all!
