"Plus there is nothing keeping these ultra-wealthy people from paying more taxes. They like to get on television and say I wish I could pay more."

You nailed it there. The pious liberals pretend they would pay more taxes, but don't do so, even when able to check the "pay more" box on their IRS forms.

Yet, when faced with someone like Romney who actually gives substantial amounts to charitable institutions which are clearly more effective at charity than the government, they say "it doesn't count".

I’ve had many conversations w/ some libs in the office regarding this topic.

Their only “point” is.....”no one is going to volunteer to pay more taxes”.

And I, in turn, say “well then they should shut the eff up if they can’t put their money where their mouth is.”

And I also bring up these people “crying to pay more taxes” are also the same ones who FIGHT from paying WHAT THEY OWE.

The only thing I get out of these conversations is these libs covet what others have.
