the death tax affects 0.2% of all taxpayers. how is this a 'tsunami'?

and, given the fact that the wealthiest 1% have had a 500% increase
in income in the past 30 years, a 165% increase in taxes is something
they deserve. they screwed the economy. let them p ay for it.

but the right wing sheds its tears for the rich, ignoring completely
the plight of the middle class


Ok Bob - fair enough - that's your opinion - I respect that.

Explain this then. What represents more of a tax burden on income - a
5% raise from 10% to 15% at the lower end of the taxe base or a 4.9%
increase from 35% to 39.6%?


and this is not going to happen. not a single independent tax source
has ANY information that this is going to occur


Doesn't matter. The nutcases say it's so, therefore it must be so.
