There will come a day very very soon when the lower classes wil simply just STOP working and revolt. And it will be because of pompous attitudes like the 2 posts above me.
Doubt what I say.......ask King Louis the 16th and Marie Antoinette... keep the attitude going..... I'd rather pay taxes than be in civil war or lose my freedoms....
Read your history, primarily 1780's and 90's France and compare it to today. I am prepared to die in battle for what I believe in....
My father knows this and again I re-iterate.... he knows his tax burden is too low right now, but as he says knowing and doing are 2 totally different things. At least he knows....... some on here it will have to take revolution for.
And in answer to your questions.... what percentage of his money goes to a war he does not believe in as opposed to educating which he does believe in?
WIll his grandkids be paying 90-100% to pay for the red ink we chose to run now because of greed?
What percentage of his money goes to give GOP Senators and Reps raises while they refuse to raise the minimum wage, while people go broke because the government won't fix healthcare?
What percentage of his money goes into the roads, the schools, the rebuilding and the future and what percentage goes into foreign leaders as bribes to "support us", Haliburton products that get bought but never arrive to the military, the president's "vacations", GOP votes on powerplays like Terry Schiavo, need I go on?

I just love people who use the excuse "I use/do this because I LOVE the feeling/joy/happiness it brings me" and expect you to be ok with that as you watch them destroy their life blindly following. My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
