47% Don't Pay Tax? Try 7% + Two More Huge Romney Gaffes

submitted by messenger

1 decade 1 year 7 months 1 week ago

If you take away the elderly (those who have paid into Social Security and Medicare their whole lives and ARE entitled to money from the government), there's only 7% left who don't pay federal tax, and it's because they make under $30,000, not because they're freeloaders.

And the states with the most people not paying income tax? Red states in the South.

And earlier, Romney defined the "Middle Class" as those making $200,000-$250,000. Turns out $200,000 is the top 4.2 percentile bracket.

Plus if so many people are making so little money that is a failure of the wealthy and corporations who hoard money. The government, the poor and the middle class don't have the luxury of hoarding money which slows down the economy. Money has to change hands in order to do work. The blame clearly should lie with people who don't let it flow.
