I HAVE a Dream pt2

you realize the bottom fifty% are the ones you hear of in foreclosures and struggling to pay off loans with their children's very small college funds.

No, that is what you said, ver batum.

"you realize the bottom fifty% are the ones you hear of in foreclosures and struggling to pay off loans with their children's very small college funds." I say

"So let me get this straight.
The bottom 50% of all income earners, are ALL IN FORECLOSURE?" Kush quotes me as saying.

This is what is referred to as a misquote.
Not worth my effort.

I was simply trying to confirm that I read your post correctly. Apparently I did.:thumbsup:

Actually, I agree that rich people are already paying more than their share of income taxes. But the fact remains that raising income taxes on middle class/poor people hurts the economy more than taxing the rich.

There are three major types of taxes that are levied on the people, sales tax, income tax, and property tax. Sales tax disproportionately affects the poor, so getting all tax money from that is a bad idea. Property tax affects the middle class disproportionately, because middle class families typically have most of their wealth tied up in their houses. And of course, income tax affects the rich disproportionately. The federal government gets most of their money from income tax, so it may seem like they're being terribly unfair to the rich, but state taxes typically hit the middle class and poor harder.

Your trying to pick useless fights KUSH.

"The bottom fifty% are the ones you hear of in foreclosures" me said

he bottom 50% of all income earners, are ALL IN FORECLOSURE?" Kush continues to misquote.

You seem to like to pick numbers out of the sky and this is the second time misquoting the same line. I spelled the difference out above. I can't have a discussion with someone who gets literally blinded by their rage, that they can't read the words i am spelling out on the page. I mean what i write not what you DECLARE i write. Civility has been lost. moving on.
