I'm sick and tired of the same old Republican rhetoric pertaining to how the wealthy and privileged should not pay a fairer share of taxes because they are the jobs creators ..... What jobs other than those which force non-benefited, part-time employees to ask, "Would you like fries with that sandwich?" The wealthy and privileged, as American corporations, spend their profits on themselves and outsource jobs to foreign countries, paying next to nothing for the labor to increase profits. The "Occupiers" protesting corruption and greed are NOT the unpatriotic ones, the politicians and corporations are! Wake up America ..... our country is being sold right out from under us to overseas interests!

@BrainC ...... Yes! ...... however there is a significant population here in America that cannot afford to pay taxes ........ and then again, there is also a significant population here in America that don't!

what is a "fairer share of taxes"? How about a flat tax across the board. Everyone pays the same amount. Would that not be fair?
