The rich can afford to pay their fair share of taxes, far better than the middle class. When the Rich cheat on their taxes, they STEAL FROM YOU AND I.
OH.....and do you honestly believe that no one in the middle class has never cheated on their taxes??? OMG!!! Working for cash 'under the table'. Claiming donations never made. Bogus receipts. Buying products on-line so they don't have to pay state taxes. Applying for dba's so they can buy wholesale. Hiding $$ to qualify for government benefits. Town clerks notarizing for a dead person for a tax break.
Oh that's right.....blame it on the rich.......they need to cheat on their taxes because the rich aren't paying their fair share. If the rich were paying more, the middle class wouldn't have to fudge on their taxes....right? So who is the middle class stealing from?

BUMBLE... You seem well versed in Cheating on your taxes... Maybe it's a conservatives trait.
I can honestly say that I've never cheated on my taxes. Not one dollar. One of these billionaires cheats and the US GOVT is out 40 or 50 million dollars or more. No matter who cheats on taxes, they steal from You and I... Well you seem to know too much about cheating on your taxes, so ... I guess i should say they steal from me.

Box a rox, do you want us to call someone? Maybe a mental health professional? Do you know where you live? Do you know what day it is? Do you remember your name? How many fingers am I holding up? Do you have any family we can call? Don't be embarrassed by your mental health issues, it will be alright.
"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

I know Graham...You haven't gotten over the time that I posted "you need the help of a mental health professional." But on the positive side... your therapy must be working for you as you haven't used ANY profanity and hardly insulted anyone all day. I told you that Anger Management might help you!!! Glad you took my advice! Keep up the good work...We all see progress!

Samuel Wyly and Charles Wyly -- billionaire brothers in Texas who have spent millions funding Conservative political campaigns -- committed violations of federal securities laws and fraud by using offshore accounts to secretly trade the shares of public companies whose boards they sat on, reaping more than $550 million in profit, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission complaint filed Thursdays
Hmmmm...Now why would I think this was a pointed condemnation about "RICH" conservatives? Gee, I don't know?
Are you so stoned you forget what you post?
I'm sure you voted for the RICH hypocrite John Kerry. Avoiding taxes in his own state. Taxes are for the little people to pay. NOT the ruling class.

Your reading comprehension problem is getting worse!
From My Original Post: :Samuel Wyly and Charles Wyly -- billionaire brothers in Texas who have spent millions funding Conservative political campaigns -- :The "Wyly Coyotes," funded the Swift Boat attacks on John Kerry... they also funded George W. Bush's attacks on John McCain in the 2000 Republican primaries. Conservatives who attack who??? The Swift Boat Lies, they attacked Kerry a liberal... In the 2000 Republican Primaries they attacked John McCain a Conservative...
In my next post: The "Wyly Coyotes" who buy politicians, buy off or smear their opposition, then write off the dollars they spent from their income tax. The Rich And Powerful Buy POLITICIANS (Both left and right) or smear any politician they can't buy(both left and right) and the American public pays their share of taxes.
Unless Cicero, you are among the millionaires or billionaires that I am posting about, (both left & right) you are also being cheated out of your tax dollars.
Government spending is on the rise since 2000, and these tax cheats are also on the rise, so as our taxes increase, our tax income decreases because of thieves like these, and YOU AND I PAY THE DIFFERENCE.

So who really has a problem with people paying what the law says? If they do then they get in trouble and have to pay. You are doing what liberals supposedly hate: lumping all rich people together as tax cheats as racists lump together minorities because so many of them commit crimes!
Also, the problem we have is "what do you define as rich?" Where is the line? You have already said it is not the $100,000 earner. Is it the guy who through 30 years of 80 hour weeks ends up making a million a year, has five kids and employs 50 people in his community, gives away tens of thousands to local charities, hires people to make improvements, sits on his local Food Pantry board, invests his profits into expanding his plant, hiring more people, building a nice home (using local contractors), and sending all his kids to college? Annually- he is probably paying $400,000 a year in state and fed taxes, he is probably paying 10,000 to 100,000 in property taxes depending on what state his property is in, he is probably paying $300,000 or more in Social Security contributions to his workers ss accounts, he is probably paying in $50,000 or better to local and state sales taxes and he then gets to die, and have half his estate taxes after he has paid taxes on all the earnings and everything else mentioned above for 40 years.
The above man pays unemployment insurance on HIS WAGES too. But if he goes out of business, that man CANNOT COLLECT UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS! Not only that, your democrap pols make sure his small business gets to pay higher rates for ELECTRICITY, CABLE TV AND INTERNET, PHONE SERVICE and just about anything else the state gets to regulate the prices of in order to subsidize the cost to the residential subscribers! Yeah, check that out.
So who makes the country run? You are so blinded by hate and jealousy of the successful that you fail to see how you are destroying the economic fortunes of those less successful since the above mentioned person IS THE ONE CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE REST OF US! You forget that this nation is one based on free enterprise, and low taxation and an actual bloody revolution occurred for its founding OVER what the people considered excessive taxation. You forget that the lion's share of man's advances in industry and science (and yes MEDICINE) have been spawned here BECAUSE we have the greatest capitalist-free enterise system in the world all inside of 200 years, while the moners, and bitchers, and complainers of the world have been cozy and comfortable in their piss-ant empires for centuries, ensconced in envy for what we have. And as we go about prospering, you liberals sit there wishing we were more like the rest of the world, with their tribal rivalry, world wars, broken monetary systems, oppressive laws, high cost of living, restriction on movement and commerce.
Instead of ever seeing WHY we are the best, all you bitchers can ever do is focus on how we can be more like the tyrants of Europe, and take more, confiscate more, restrict more, oppress more, and control more.
What made you hate people that had a few more bucks? Who made you God (for one who quotes the bible I figure you to be another communist priest) that you can take out of someone's pocket so easily and arbitrarily the fruits of their labor? Do you want quotes on envy and coveting as well from the Good Book?
Put your bible down and stop your preaching. People want MORE economic freedom and less governmental confiscation. Tax rates are high enough for everyone. Besides, giving the government more money to PISS AWAY with nothing to show won't stop government and its uber-hungry bureacurats from screwing up everything they touch. a** CLOWNS GALORE!
