Objective of this Blog

It is my intention of posting items here that I find of interest to the general reader who has a concern for what is happening in the United States today. My view is from a left of center perspective. This is done with the knowledge that my sources or myself might be wrong. I will not print anything I don't have good reason to believe is true knowing that someone else may not agree.

47 % Americans pay no income tax bit.


My friend Steve posted on Facebook recently that Mitt Romney claim that "47 % of Americans who pay ZERO federal income tax are voting on what to charge everyone else".

My response to Steve:  But they pay social security taxes, federal excise taxes, state income taxes, sales taxes and many pay property taxes.  How many of this number are wealthy who pay not federal income taxes; I know at (least )two.  To our knowledge Donald Trump pays no federal income tax, and the only way that can be disproved is if the Donald releases his income tax records like all other major presidential candidates.  Prove me wrong and "I'll kill your ass in Macy's window".
