Thread: White House Tax Plan Would Ask More of Millionaires

Why anyone believes this ass is beyond me.

Buffetts slurpage of Obama fails to note that many people making a million or more have mainly salary income meaning they are paying a 35% rate which is far higher than the middle class

He's an asshole and a fraud If he wants to pay more he should but for him to extrapolate his position and project it onto everyone making more than a million is a joke

he also benefits by the economy that causes businesses to fail which he then buys up for pennies on the dollar.

I'm curious since you like to go on so much about being "fair" and the poor paying their "fair" share do you think it is "fair" that most likely people in your income bracket are paying less than you do?

So you cannot back up your numbers. Good, we can throw out your garbage claims and stick with what we have documented.

In addition how would he know the mortgage interest deductions of his employees, number of dependents, amount of charity paid, and long term capital gains they may have through a mutual fund, medical expenses.....

Total B.S., but he gets a pass a "Uncle Warren" the kindly old gent from Neb.

That source does not back up your 60k claim, nor does it say anything which would invalidate what I have said in any way. Care to try again?
