Tha majority of Americans want tax increases on the rich

The majority of Americans want loopholes removed from the tax code

The majority of Americans want us out of the wars

The majority of Americans want clean energy

The majority of Americans want their voices heard in Washington

But, the majority of Americans are ignored by Congress and the White House.

I think the system may be broken.

1. That may be true but I don't believe the majority of DUers feel the same way about raising taxes

Most won't admit to that though. They will use other issues to to drive a wedge between Democrats. But they aren't going to say they don't want their taxes raised. At least not many of them.

Pretty tough to get by on only $400,000 dollars a year after feeding their families.

2. I want my taxes raised

I posted in another thread that I have never paid federal income taxes in my life. That is crazy. I use public services, I can be asked to pay more. Not a whole lot more. I guess I must be doing something right if I can get by on 1/16 of what that guy is bringing home after taxes.
