Jonelle Eligio: Say what? According to this its taxed 3 times. I think you need to go back and try to understand your own point.

Floy Fague: Sure? your CAs were sleeping or what ?

Elfreda Grossen: why can't conservatives understand that taxes are the rent we pay for living in the US, and that the taxes aren't enough to cover the cost of maintaining the country at the level that they demand.

Arlen Hamper: Because tax rates are the lowest they've been in decades- including the boom years of the 90s. It's simply not true that higher taxation reduces jobs.

Derrick Kloke: We've got it pretty good compared to some other countries.

Davina David: BECAUSE THERE ARE DRUG DEALERS TRYING TO TAKE OVER OUR ECONOMY, AND THERE IS LIKE NOTHING TO HELP

Faustino Mellerson: OH, then I guess ! we don't have massive debt due in part to giving unfunded tax breaks to the top income brackets? LOLYou are confused about this issue, clearly. The rates for high income earner need to go back to Clinton era rates.
