The Obama Federal Budget in Perspective
08 July 2009 | By LowellB in Economy, Lowell, Politics, TN BlogI understand this YouTube video is gaining more and more attention. I hope millions of American voters see it and let their congressmen and senators know they have seen it:
Slowly but surely, middle class, and upper-middle class Americans are being awakened to the fact that federal taxes are being skirted by at least half of all Americans. Half. Governor Mitt Romney, in a recent private meeting in Los Angeles, stated that it is more likely that only 40% of all Americans are carrying the enormous federal tax burden today. Under the new codes being enforced by the Obama Administration, that figure will probably become 50%. Is it any wonder that there are “tea parties” emerging around the country featuring fed-up Americans who recognize more and more that the very rich are escaping tax-free, as well as those in the low-income sectors of our economy. There is no shortage of compassion among American earners, but there is a conviction in Democracy.
Right now, there are too few patriots paying the freight.
