    Only little people pay taxes.

    The radical rich are hijacking this country. They have purchased: Fox News, the GOP, and parts of the Supreme Court. We need to go back to “We the people” not “Let the wealthy have it their way.”

    talk talk talk. It is self-evident that progressivism is the reason for the fall of America.

    And just think of ALL the Mayans out there doing their last minute Christmas shopping starting on the morning of 12/22/12!

    According to the coward Mitt Romney, who refused to divulge his income tax returns, he “never payed less than 14%” even in those returns he wouldn’t let us see. I paid more than 14% year after year after year, personally, without being even 1% as rich as Mitt. QUESTION: In what Bizarro World could this POSSIBLY be considered fair?

    There is nothing fair about the tax code. Why should someone give up 35% so someone else can pay nothing! Make it a consumption tax. That way if you don’t wish to pay, don’t purchase. Then I could believe that extending the unemployment benifits create jobs.

    When the bottom-feeding bottom half pays NOTHING in taxes and then whines about others not paying a fair share….let’s just say beheading won’t hurt anything.

    Easy one. The 47% pays sales tax, they pay hidden taxes in their rent and utilities, they pay withholding and FICA, and in all these cases, they pay more, percentage-wise, than those non-contributing putative job creators. In other words “they pay NOTHING” is about as true as “beheading won’t hurt anything.”

    You should probably put those dirty old lies back where you found them, and read something less factually challenged than rightwing blogs.

    The Mayans did stupid things like throw human sacrifices in their drinking water wells, and do all kinds of ritual painful carving on their bodies.
    We on the other hand, pollute everything, cut down forests, overfish, and cause climate change.

    Meh…

    Why make it political? It’s too sciency for the right and too “been there didn’t happen before” for the left.

    What about the “May a Not” calendar? Mayan OT so to speak!

    Does the GOP even realize that Fox ‘news’ is sponsored by Arab oil money?

    Almost all of the “47%-ers” work for a living. Dismissing them as “bottom feeders”, just shows what a ratbag your are.

    If the top 1% started paying employees more in wages, the “problem” of people paying no income tax would go away.

    14% of 20 million? That’s more than you will make in a dozen lifetimes and it’s not enough for someone else to pay? How liberal of you.
