“According to a recent study by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, those who make more than $43,200 (the top 40%) pay 99.1% of all income taxes, the taxes that support our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, and, for example, fund the federal portion of transportation, education, environmental and welfare spending.”
This is shocking, mostly to the California Taxpayer! Who in California that works hard, has a family and perhapse owns a home makes less than $43,200? And the state wants to collect more and more money from the taxpayer. Amazingly stupid!
And to rub salt in the wound 40/100 people do not pay ANY taxes! But they get stimulus checks!

It is more than apparent that Congress is not listening to us these days, but I found a site that has some things that will remind them they will have to next November.
