Is it me or is the Democratic Party falling apart?

I'm actually having this same debate on facebook right now.

The reason I say keep the rates they way they are is because of this.

Everyone says the top 10% pay 40% of the income taxes in America.

Have you stopped to think about how much money the top %10 actually have?

If you combined all of the bottom %50 of the income brackets and then held them in comparison to the top %10 it would be pitiful. Just fucking pathetic.

So when we tax the upper %10 at %18 then that tax money is going to look inflated compared to the bottom %50. Those of us under $250,000 dont have much to tax. So keep our taxes at %25-30, but tax the top %10 the same.

The top %10 are your big corporate owners, they are the ones who hold your jobs in limbo because they do not want to take a $500,000 pay cut to save 10 jobs. And last time I checked, $500,000 of $1 billion is like a drop in the bucket.

Start thinking in context here. I know its hard to think that high up past your own personal paycheck, but you always talk about the big picture. So think about this big picture. Government is not your only enemy. It is big business who is fucking you in the ass. The politicians are at least the ones giving us the reach around while it happens.
