Wasting your breath, O Grumpy One.
The likes of Romney are American heroes.
The pay less than 14% in tax (and, if they're corporates, pay 0% tax and actually get paid by the taxpayer with billions in subsidies), squirrel their dosh in the Carribean, and ship jobs offshore.
That is one part of the American dream. The other part is that everyone else picks up the slack.

Come sit down beside me I said to myself
And although it doesn't make sense
I held my own hand as a small sign of trust
And together I sat on the fence
Anon. Very anon.

Oh, we still have the clowns: Awryly, Carygrunt, Truthdoesn'tmatter, Exotix, and Cigar.
So true, and it doesn't look like any of these clowns will face the heavy tax burden of obamadoesn'tcare once the bill comes due in Janurary of 2013, and even worse come Janurary of 2014 when America will be mirroring the failed socialistic policies of Western Europe. Meanwhile I'll be preparing and stockpiling my arms for the upcoming battle against obama's martial law and totalitarian government.

If one group of people have 2/3rds of the total wealth, land, assets, etc, which constitute the GDP, and the other group of people have 1/3rd of the total wealth, land, assets, etc, which constitute the GDP, then when it comes to how to proportion the funding for the yearly Federal Budget, the group which enjoys 2/3rds of GDP should pay 2/3rds of the budget, while the group that has 1/3rd of GDP, pays 1/3rd of the Fed.Budget.
Simple logic really, which is probably why GOP/upside down elephants cannot grasp it.
Oh yes they do, confused elephant. They pay RENT, and GAS taxes, and SALES taxes, and they do a lot of work that other people would not want to do, but which has to be done.
The portion you must be refering to, is the 1/6th of population, which is poor, or working poor. That includes disabled, elderly, and mentally unfit (like an elephant trying to F a donkey).
As much as we would like to not have to deal with this % of low productive persons, it is far cheaper to just pay them a $2000/year or so welfare check, rather than pay $60K/year to keep them in prisons.
And no, we cannot just kill them, or ship them off to some remote island of losers like New Zealand. (unless.._we could get off importing oil, and use the empty tankers as cargo ships).
They would be the policies that make many Western European and Australasian countries far in advance of the US in terms of education, and a battery of other social indicators.the failed socialistic policies of Western Europe
All measured and reported by independent agencies...so don't bother with "alternative" stats from Fox News.
