  2. Romney is in the : "do as I say, not as I do" crowd, like Buffet. Fuck them.

  3. that no large societies practice it, doesn't make it any less fair. If what you're trying to get at here is the burden of taxes relative to the cost of living is disproportionate to earners on the low end of the scale.. then fine, I wouldn't have an issue with them paying a lower %, but everyone has to pay something, and no more of this tax credit nonsense.

  5. No, he isn't clown shoes. He lives of cap gains, which are taxed at a lower rate than income, how come u still don't get this? Weren't u an acct major? And I don't recall him saying that we need higher taxes, cause his secretary pays more taxes than he does, then doing his best to avoid all the new obamacare taxes. lol
