kallend 1,623 #51 January 31, 2012 Sen. Tom Coburn (R, Oklahoma) estimates that millionaires received $30 billion in tax breaks in 2009. On the whole I find him more believable than you.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kallend 1,623 #52 January 31, 2012 Quote I never stated that any particular bracket was 'middle class'. Nice attempt to attack the poster when you can't refute the post, though. So you now admit that your response (citing the 10% bracket) to "All I suggest is that the super-rich pay at the same rate as the middle class and not some privileged rate that only they can qualify for. " was, in fact, a RED HERRING.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ion01 1 #58 January 31, 2012 QuoteHow many children could have been fed, clothed, educated and housed with the billions of dollars wasted on crony capitalism green energy schemes like Solyndra, Beacon, Evergreen Solar, Spectra Watt, and Eastern Energy; all of which have declared bankruptcy and all of which are Obama supporters. If it was capitalism the government wouldn't be involved and spending the money on these failures. Capitalism requires the government to get out and let the free market speak for itself. If it is not profitable and people don't buy it then it will fail. That is capitalism whereas we have the government combating capitalism in this case by trying to keep these failures alive. This is not a failure in capitalism but in socialism and government. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ion01 1 #59 January 31, 2012 Quote I wonder how many children could be helped if Mitt Romney and others like him paid tax on their income at the same rate that I have to on my income. The money to which you refer is not actually income. The approximate 15% rate which people are talking about is actually a double tax which is unconstitutional.
