Republican Senator Orrin Hatch argued that top income earners pay too much in taxes while the bottom 51% of Americans don't pay enough. Michael Shure explains.

1. It really bugs Orrin Hatch that the bottom 51% don't pay income taxes...
That disparity is just such an injustice...

Of course he's OK with the fact that the top 1% own more of the wealth than the bottom 51%. That disparity doesn't bother him.

Hey Orrin- Try giving the bottom 51% enough money to live on instead of cutting the minimum wage and then you can whine about how they don't pay taxes!

2. That bottom 51%! Hmmmph!
And who says you have to actually HAVE a job to pay income tax? Can't we start collecting from the unemployed too?
