Maybe we do ... but this is pretty clear that you can take 100% of all the income of the fortune 500 and 100% of all the income of those making over $250K and it does not make a dent ... we need huge spending cuts ... then we can start to talk about how much more revenue we need.

I saw a cut cartoon recently ... it was Oblamer making a speech and the voice cloud said ... I am not going to solve the deficit on the backs of the 51% that pay no federal taxes, when the other 49% are not paying their fair share.

Rings true ... I have to say those 51% are the real greedy and selfish ones ... they want more entitlements and keep saying someone else pay. ALL working people need to pay some federal taxes.
