I stated neither, because I believe both will be forced to raise taxes, therefore I'll pay more either way.

There's a reason why 35% don't pay taxes. They barely make enough to live on.

This is a very sad argument by the rich. I love these rich cats who cry about how high their taxes are but refuse to raise wages and cut theirs a bit.

Raise wages, you raise investments, raise investments from the "average" guy, you raise tax base, raise tax base, it becomes proportionate and not one group pays "more than their share".

Keep wages down, people barely make ends meet, can't tax people who don't have anything.... so you raise taxes on those that do.

It's that fucking simple.
