Eisenhower - republican - built the freeway system we love by have a high marginal tax rate of 91 or 92% every year he was in office. Hardly anyone railed against it! All our infrastructure is falling part now because of our revenue problem and bloated defense budget.

As Warren Buffett says, "Please Tax Me!".

Damn stupid, to boot.

Tweeting these graphics to @WhiteHouse and @BarackObama with their blind eyes & deaf ears that only hear the scream of money and only see big dollars, not lives or the future.
