The Rich Want to Pay More Taxes

The Rich Want to Pay More Taxes
http://reason.com/24-7/2013/10/25/harry-...use-republ

Quote: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.”

Then why do they spend so much effort avoiding them? I promise if you send a check to the IRS or Treasury they won't mail it back to you. Pay as much as you like... but for some weird reason people aren't voluntarily sending money to the government (despite Reid's belief in their desire to do so).

One of the biggest examples that the administration uses to pander this trash is Warren Buffett and his comments about his secretary. Peter Schiff breaks down how Buffett uses some tricky language to perpetuate the myth of him paying low taxes.





...again, mail your checks to the government. They will accept as much money as you are willing to give them.
