"if the top few percent pay something in the neighborhood of 86% of all
the income taxes". Of course, they don't, so none of the rest of your
statement follows.

and we have an across the board tax cut, who would get the largest share
of that cut? Surely not those who paid it in the first place?
And who is it that provide new jobs and start new businesses? Is it
the low income folks? Or could it be those who have already had
success in life? Well, to hell with them, let them pay 100% of the
taxes!Bobp.s. ... Soon, someone will call for an end to
political posts to this list and I'll agree with them even though I am
contributing to the discussion. I guess I need to get to my
moderating duties beginning with myself.
