Obama's "Sacred Cow": Higher Taxes on the Rich!

By John W. Lillpop



After meeting with members of Congress to discuss the debt ceiling crisis, President Obama returned to the failed liberal mantra of tax, tax, tax, and more tax.

As reported at http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/06/29/obama-to-hold-press-conference-amid-budget-talks/, the president said, in part:

“President Obama called on Republicans Wednesday to drop their opposition to tax increases, saying "everybody else" is willing to sacrifice their "sacred cows" for deficit reduction and urging GOP lawmakers to do the same.”

Everyone else, sir?

How can that be the case in light of this astounding fact: The majority of Americans pay NO income taxes whatsoever.

Nada, zero, not one damn penny!

While tens of millions pay NO taxes, Obama wants to pillage and plunder the rich, that one-percent of citizens who already pay the lion’s share of taxes collected here in America.

Just what sort of sense does it make to ignore the majority of people who pay no taxes, while attacking the one-percent of the population that is already paying exorbitant taxes?

The answer is, of course, no sense at all.

In all comes down to votes and power. Unfortunately, there one hell of a lot more scalawags who pay no taxes than there are millionaires and billionaires!

In short, the successful and prosperous are easy targets for people like Joe Biden who believe that paying higher taxes is the “patriotic” thing to do—except when it comes to constituents of the Democrat Party!

The solution to America’s financial woes is to go after those folks who are not paying their “fair share,” even if such people are middle-class Americans!
