47%? Make that 98%

You Don't Care About the 47%
Make that 98%



Its Romney Arithmetic again.

And its pretty simple.

People who pay no taxes? Show me your tax returns! Ask GE why they pay NO TAXES!

You're telling me I pay no taxes? I pay more than you do!

You want Obama to show us his birth certificate. He has!

You, show us your tax returns!



I am a semi-retired Senior Citizen.

But I have to work to make ends meet.

I pay over 26% of my income in taxes. You pay 14%. AND you won't show us your tax returns.



I do receive Social Security. I earned it.

I do have Medicare. I earned that too.

You want to take away what I earned. I will fight you on that.

Live off the government? Ask Big Oil about their depletion allowances. Oh and your friends at GE again and the money our tax dollars give them?

You say we pay no taxes. 

What about the 1-2% of the Super Rich, Multi National Corporation? Why should they live off our tax dollars.

Don't pick on Welfare moms.

Tell your pals on Corporate Welfare to get off the dole!


This is the thanks we get for bailing you out in 2008 with our tax dollars?

We gave you that money and you kept it. 

That was a transfer of wealth from the middle class to the rich, no matter how you cut it.

And now you insult us in Boca Raton in a few "off the collar" remarks!




And you make no apology!

It is getting clearer what you meant in your book.

You make no apology to the 98% of American Citizens who work hard, pay their taxes and love this country.



Thanks for making it clear why we'll be voting for Barack Obama.

He cares about the poor and is the only president who was able to engineer a health care plan like you engineered in Massachusetts.

And all he wants from you is for you to pay your fair share of taxes.

You want to repeal Romneycare/Obamacare.

You, the Tea Party and the Republican Party will fight fair taxation every step of the way.

You will continue to insist on a subsidy from the middle class, seniors, and the poor.

Watch out, because the numbers of people who will not vote for you may increase dramatically from 47%!

I know this. 

I will NOT vote for you!

So Who is on Welfare?

Big Bucks vs Welfare Moms


To say that we are becoming an oligarchy of the rich is merely to state the obvious. They are close to taking control of the political process now that Citizens United have taken the Supreme Court as well. 

Very dangerous if you ask me.

In the meantime, according to a well articulated and well researched article by NPR the middle class is in free fall. This is even more dangerous. 

Some think that the dole to welfare mothers is worth getting worked up over. 
Wrongly placed resentment.

When we needed a bail out because of job losses, did we get one?
When we lost our homes to predatory lenders, did we get one?
When our children took out loans for their education, did they get a reprieve from grinding debt?

Ah but when the super huge financial institutions needed a bail out, we transferred our tax dollars in an instant because they were too big to fail.

And to thank us they turned a cold shoulder to our police, fire, EMTs, and teachers.

And when we wanted any form of health care they told us to drop dead.

Don't be duped.

These folks are a trying to engineer a transfer of more money from the rest of us.

The addiction to Greed knows no boundary.

As "Occupy Wall Street" marks another good year of solid witness, lets give this matter some more thought!
