1) how many people in the top one percent were actually given money
ALL of them
2) how much money has the top one percent paid in taxes vs the others
Taxes? When the government takes money from everyone else to give to them it's a damned tax...
3) how many people NOT in the top one percent benefited from the bailout
Quotes on news are putting benefits from bailouts to non 1%ers at less than 20% from every quote I've heard in the last several years.
4) where did the money come from to pay for the bailouts (the top 5% pay more federal income taxes than the bottom 95%)
What is 'more' what is 'is'... when the 10 richest in the US have more money than half of the united states.... what does it matter what taxes most Americans pay? You went to princeton before the ethics classes were enforced by law weren't you?
if you want to tax those who directly benefited from the bailout so be it but its moronic to claim everyone in the top one percent benefited.
A couple dozen thousand people... who can call up the phone and regulate the economy at their whim...? My aS s they didnt benefit from the bailout they designed... they aren't going to call you to court you can't even get why most of your wealth is taxed and they're on a damned party boat...
perhaps detatch your lips from their you know whats...
what I do know is that if the bailout came from tax dollars the top one percent paid almost 40% of those tax dollars, those in the bottom 50% less than 5%
Quote that in tax law... from a federal source... or post a video of you eating a hat on youtube..
feel free to dodder off and dodge this post...
