Yeah, boo-friggin'-hoo... The idea of the folks making more than $250K having to cough up an extra 3.6% --ONLY ON THE PART OF THE INCOME THEY MAKE OVER $250K--is sooo "unfair."
Well boys, it looks like we have found our chairperson for the 285 Bound Liberal Democrat Wealth Redistribution Program. Since LJ is so good at spending other people's money, imagine what a difference she can make with hers.
Money talks and bull--t walks. I'm looking forward to hearing about LJ's first contribution.

Here we go again - instead of rolling back the 16,845 page tax code (in 2006), let's tax the most successful among us! because the rest of us are so bound by overtaxation, excessive fees and regulation, that we can barely function anymore, so WE WANT HANDOUTS! That will fix EVERYTHING!
Remember what Margaret Thatcher said "The problem with taxing everyone else is that eventually you run out of money." Taxing the 'rich' now may be a short-term solution, but the sooner we face the music regarding our outrageous tax code, the better. How about a 15% or 18% flat tax, for everyone, across the board, no deductibles, no exemptions - none of that. If you make $100 a week, you pay $15 in taxes. And if you make $100,000 in a week, you pay $15,000 in taxes. It's that simple - and it's got to be that fair. Half of America doesn't pay any income tax right now, for one reason or another - that's just wrong.
Just as important as simplying the tax code is holding Congress accountable for its spending. The waste that goes on right now is unforgivable.
We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give. - Sir Winston Churchill

I make it with every paycheck... And yes, if the $106,800 cap were removed on employees only for Social Security contributions, it WOULD affect me... Thanks for caring.

Well, I think that's an acceptance speech? You heard it here first folks. LJ is accepting chairmanship of the 285 Bound Liberal Democrat Wealth Redistribution Program. Now we just need to work on that contribution LJ. I REALLY think your liberal friends had an expectation of a MUCH larger contribution on the part of you and everyone else who actually has a job and is contributing to society. I could use some input from one of the wealth redistributors to get a feel about just how much you and I should give.
No, I'm a "job creator", according to your definition--except I work for a company and don't create jobs...(like the other 98% of the people who would be affected by certain tax increases.) But of course, since I'm not self-employed, I'm not "John Galt" material... rofllol (Of course, unlike the rest of the Ayn Rand-sociopathic-suckups, I'm not Galt material anyway.)
