WEALTHY: Fair share indeed

So Brian you want the wealthiest Americans to shoulder their fair share of the tax burden? What is their fair share, Brian? The fact that 100% of federal income taxes are paid by around 50% of Americans is not enough? Nice liberal talking point.

The tax break you speak of, I assume, is the Bush era tax cuts. You want the wealthiest Americans to be excluded on the extension. Did you know that Barack Obama, when he was running for president, was against raising taxes? Bill Clinton and John Maynard Keynes are on record against raising taxes during trying economic times. BO can’t run on his record so class warfare was his substitute so it seems. Tell me how many jobs have been offered to you by a poor person?

The Republican Party is not doing anything to create jobs? What about the Trans Canada Pipeline? The unions were for it. The environmentalists weren’t. BO knew he would get the union vote so he placated the environmentalists. These were well-paying jobs spread over many years and many communities. To BO it’s not jobs, but re-election that counts.

What about drilling on Federal Lands? Well paying jobs. And lots of them. But not under this President. You speak in Liberal platitudes. That does this country no good. Got any job openings?
