   Top 20% tax payers pay around 80% of total tax income… Is obama trying to say that top 10% should pay for the whole thing or what?

   The hype is that the “Top 2%” need to pay “more” (whatever that means).

   But the reality is that 100% of the people pay for electricity, and the “skyrocket” rate rise will be paid by EVERYONE.

   How about California? They will get Obama’s “skyrocket” rate boosted to the next highest power, a most fitting reward for having put Governor Brown in office. And when the dim bulbs who voted him in see their household lights dim as a consequence, the circle will be complete!!!

   This paints a clearer picture of how much we actually pay on federal level. They often leave out payroll tax and others. Then there’s always state/local income in some places plus sales tax and never tending taxes/fees of everything else.

   Does anyone know of a good website that will show the whole thing of how much we pay for taxes/fees in everything? It feels like we pay half for taxes alone.

   2008:
   “Hope & Change”
   “Yes, We Can”

   2012:
   “Fear & Division, Envy & Despair”
   “Why We Couldn’t”
   “fair share, fair shot, same set of rules” (hypocrisy: all the Obamacare waivers for people/groups who supported the law, loopholes and subsidies for corporate cronies, auto bailout payoff to UAW, NLRB attacking Boeing, green energy subsidies to donors/bundlers, killing coal, stimulus dollars to “bankrupt” irresponsible states…)
