Quote from Hello:
I watched Rachel Maddow tonight, Big mistake on my part, liberals like Rachel Maddow seem to believe that we are dealing with a system where you can charge X amount in taxes on businesses and, that will produce an equivalent amount of revenues.
Do liberals actually believe that the people who are in the upper tax brackets are just going to sit idly by while the government takes an ever larger portion of my income, tax wise?
Do liberals think we can just say, "well john doe makes this much" if i raise his taxes by "x" amount i will bring in a proportional amount of revenue.
Do liberals really believe that the people who worked hard, and fought hard, their entire life are going to sit around while the government bends us over, so that people like me can simply give away an even larger portion of my income to satisfy their plans?
This idea is ludicrous. You lefties have another thing coming once you decide to raise my taxes, watch how much i pay in taxes after 2012 if you simply decide to raise mine by 5%.
That should be a barometer for how well these policies will work, if my taxes go up by 5% i will never pay another dime in U.S. taxes.... mark my words, I am outta here if this happens.
