This is from a progressive news source - After NH Trouncing, Clinton's Delegate Haul Exposes Rigged Electoral System - Another reason to avoid the Republicrat parties. Clinton and the Democrats have sunk to new lows.

Were you and the rest of the Old BS supporters around here crying foul back in 2008 when Hillary was on the losing end of this same process, @AeonPax?

After placing third in Iowa and winning NH and Nevada, she started losing several states to Obama and enough of the superdelegates that had been in her column, jumped ship and got on board with him to win the nomination for him.

Never heard a peep out of any progressive over how low the Democrats had sunk, etc etc.

Why is it suddenly such an outrage now?

I voted for Obama in 2008, based on the promises he made. I did not vote for Hillary. In 2012, I swore off the Democratic party and it's candidate. Voting (R) is not an option for me. I voted for Jill Stein and the Green Party which I will be doing again in this election. Both for-profit parties are toxic.

The top 5% pay ~58% of the federal income taxes. The bottom 2% pay less than 3%.

Fair....

What does it tell you, when a group of people pay taxes at a rate that is on average half or less than that of what average people with a tiny fraction of their income pay, and still it constitutes 58% of the total tax revenue collected by the govt?

What it tells me is that these people are so wealthy that if they were paying their taxes at the rate they should be paying, rather than crying poor mouth, they would still have huge fortunes left over, could easily afford it and the country would have a $#@!load more revenue.

What is truly absurd, is the way working class conservatives who would also benefit from the increased tax revenue, shill for their greed based on nothing more than some misguided ideological principle based on hatred for the govt and taxes.

You all bite your noses to spite your own faces.

Only idiots advocate for that sort of tax code. Those fools end up destroying their nanny state gig. Those fools kill their economy and cut off their gravy train.

What is your response to those fools?

They demand a nanny state. When the system collapses they will become dead or criminals. Citizens should prepare today.

I keep asking what they will replace the rich and the corporations with when they've run them out of the country. They will not say but you and I both know it will be the middle class!
