Check? And Mate?

"The result is a tax system that exempts almost half the country from paying for programs that benefit everyone, including national defense, public safety, infrastructure and education. It is a system in which the top 10 percent of earners -- households making an average of $366,400 in 2006 -- paid about 73 percent of the income taxes collected by the federal government."

Once we reach the point where half the country pays no income tax...and it is sooner than you think...we have ceased our run as a representative republic (except on paper) and will be run by mob rule. Who is going to be able to run against Obama (or his future comrade) when the campaign is based on one sentence: " He is going to raise your taxes!" There will be a great gnashing of teeth from the sheeple (aka those who vote democrat) and the candidate will stand no chance of EVER gaining political office...except maybe dog catcher.

Btw, the same thing is going to happen with healthcare in November. For those of you "R's" with big dreams of BIG pick-ups in the mid-term election, keep that suicide hotline number handy.

I hope you (freeloaders) are all happy.

America. It used to be a good little country.
