Trevor Campbell reminds me of how the senate dems were treating repubs not too long ago. I bet if the capitol building had a sandbox and monekybars, this beef would've been squashed a while ago!

Jonathan Keith Barrow I guess your right Trevor, it just seems like nothing will do for the Republicoans. They don't support anything any more, just tax breaks for the uber rich it seems. They want to take us back to the 60's or something, I just don't get it.

Trevor Campbell Then the question becomes, why should they pay more than they already do? A lot of people like to say 'most rich people don't actually pay', but there's no data to back it up, and when the data that is there indicates that the top 10 % of earners pay 50% of the taxes brought in, it makes further increase harder to justify, which is why a lot of folks that like the idea are using terms like 'fair share'...

Jonathan Keith Barrow They should pay more because they are making so much more. This right here pretty much sums it up:

Bob Barrow So what? Top 1% still paying about 40% of all income taxes. Top5% pays around 60%. Top 10% is paying 70% of all government income.
