Unless you’re a prosecutor or a judge and I’m pretty sure you’re not a judge.

They’ll send themselves to prison once they’re deprived of the tax payer dollars. Given the number of concealed carry permits being issued and the dramatic increase in firearm sales in the various states, they’ll be lucky if they make it to prison.

While true, I don’t think most of the middle class is too concerned about how overtaxed the rich are. A good many want them to pay even more.

I'm hardly rich, and I paid a combined $57,962 in Federal and State taxes last year. I don't want the rich to pay more, I want us ALL to pay less! Starve the beast folks, all they do is eat more and more of our hard-earned money, and the rotten bastards think WE work for THEM.

This government of ours is so corrupt it's time to clean house of each and every one of 'em and start over. The founding fathers revolted over far less than each one of us puts up with on a daily basis.

As for me, I'm sick of supporting the MOOCHERS. If the Republican Party doesn't win the White House, Senate and overturn Obama-Care and get fundamental tax reform in place, I'm quitting my job Dec 31st, 2013 (the day before Obamacare kicks in) and I plan on being a burden to the bastards. I've had enough.

Thanks, you two saved me hours of research, I was just about to start hunting for this very data :-)
