The terms “soaking the rich” and “they need to pay their fair share” by both sides are seriously off the mark. The monstrous profits by the corporatocracy are impossible without a supporting expanded infrastructure (e.g., judiciary, education, transportation/roads, health system, government, and on and on -i.e., a stable, educated,healthy, mobile populace and society,. . .) With all the $$ paid by the corporatocracy, it still doesn’t come close to paying for that infrastructure. We’re being robbed. It has nothing to do with “fair share.” What’s going on now is no more that their sycophants (rethugs) trying to finish us off after coopting our government and press. We gotta stop it now. Last chance!!

Nearly every poll indicates that people think that other people should pay higher taxes!

We also need a higher top tax rate. This country cannot be run without money to pay for it, and anyone who expects to live here and not pay a fair percentage of their wealth for it is a leech on society. The wealthy who do not want to pay are just as greedy as the people who are on welfare by choice.

Anyone who could support Republicans is either completely ignorant or a bad person. It has come to that.
