Senate majority leader Harry Reid says that "Everybody" is "willing to pay more" taxes. He said so in an interview with a Nevada Public Radio host.
“The only people who feel there shouldn’t be more coming in to the federal government from the rich people are the Republicans in the Congress,” Reid told the radio host, according to Roll Call. “Everybody else, including the rich people, are willing to pay more. They want to pay more.”

Not which country but what planet is he living on?
Not a single person I know is willing to pay another cent in taxes in fact many suggest they are finished paying them at all!

Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi should get married.
After all, they are the only two people living on their planet.

While I despise Harry Reid he was talking about the "rich." I do think the tax code needs to be completely revamped to make it fair to everyone. Say a graduated flat tax.
I'm not sure who qualifies as rich anymore, billionaires? I heard the millionaires are struggling a bit.
Won't matter even if they raise taxes on the rich to 90%, they'll just spend it all on pork anyway.
