There was lots of talk about "fair share" and rich paying more. Look around us, we, that are Villagers, and see what the folks outside the walls think of us. We are RICH, we are 1%, WE have it ALL.

Just as a point of reference, the "top 1%" is having an annual income north of some $380,000/year.

It is sickening to see our friends, neighbors and relatives who work themselves to the bone to run a small business, hire people, and yes, earn $250k per year that they report for PERSONAL income tax at the highest rate.....to be lumped in with the likes of the list above...

What is usually missing in the discussions about taxing the rich and only above $250,000 is this.
Government says that is will not raise taxes on the middle class and then goes out and starts up several new programs. Then directs the states and other government agencies to implement these new programs to help the middle class and poor. So they do or else they are sued by Holder.
These new programs have cost, those cost are passed on to the "middle class" and "poor" as fees and taxes at a local level allowing the government and Obama lie like he did last night went saying he is there to protect the American dream and the middle class.
The fees and taxes that are passed on to the middle class are then raised to a higher level for small business owners like me. If you don't have or never had a small business I am not interested in what you think about how we are treated because you know nothing about it.
All of this is diquised by the federal government and Obama as not raising taxes on the middle class, BS. It is just a shell game and he and everybody in his administration knows what they are doing when masking these TAXES on us by making our state and local governments have to raise them and they get the blame instead of Obama.
I know that these fees and local taxes don't push people over the $380,000 mark that Djplong stated but it still counts and it comes out of your paycheck or bank account everyday.
Obama saving the middle class......not a chance in hell!!
