Neo think about this - if the masses are too stupid to understand what is going on (And they are indeed that stupid) and this is a fact that the ultra rich already understand and capitalize on, what make you think that your individual ranting and raving will change anything?

We have a Progressive income tax already, meaning the more you make the higher percentage you are taxed at. It's so disingenuous for politicians to be suggesting that the wealthy are taxed lower than the poor. It's actually a very shoddy shady claim.
But what Obama knows is that the uber wealthy who make up the elite such as Buffett hide their wealth in tax shelters, so effectively it doesn't matter what rate you say you are gonna tax them.
Today, corporations have become the biggest recipients of "entitlements" there are. Conservatives whine about the poor receiving entitlements, while at the same time they moan and groan about how these corporations aren't getting enough entitlements.

C'mon you admit the flaws in the whole "progressive income tax" claim in your own post...the wealthy hide their wealth...meaning they aren't paying the taxes they need to. Add onto that the countless loopholes they have, and you should realize the wealthy don't pay near enough taxes. They are indeed being taxed at a lower rate when you look at how much they hide from the government, and the loopholes.
Whatever, keep defending those who don't give a $%^& about you, and will send your children to die in war for the slightest reasons. Defend those who want to enslave the children who don't die in wars.
