forty seven percent of american workers so
worthy of being trashed because
they don't earn enough to pay federal income taxes actually there's a there's
a fairly good breakout
of those uh... to the that paragraph low
wrote it over at separate progresses thing progress type
or blog what running won't tell you about the forty seven percent
and uh...
the inlet
assist earlier markle
of that forty seven percent
forty four percent of them are
people who are on social security they basically get elderly tax benefits
forty four percent
thirty percent of them are getting child credits for the working poor so there
would be polu have
who are working
and are making so little money that the child credits which by the way were
passed
by reagan
only had a democratic congress
that those child credits are are zeroing out their tax rates
so that seventy five or so if that's all three quarters of all of them right
there it's the elderly
and the working poor
and they are five percent with itemize deductions that's basically that's the
three thousand multimillionaires in billionaires who paid no income taxes
last year
five point six percent getting an education credit scissor other taxes nor
is there but they're making just a little bit more than
which at the make to pay income tax at arlington texas but
there also put the kids to school
one point three percent don't pay any cut income taxes because uh... they have
capital gains in dividend races on their romney doesn't pay income taxes
it's broker to my mind
and on top of that romney is like
dreaming of the days of his father his grandfather's grandfather's
great-grandfather chris
moved from
my utah down in mexico so that they get a polygamous compound down there
so you have as mobile wives
isn't so good mormons did back in the nineteenth century
when you todd voted in that he was eighteen ninety-two make polygamy
illegal
and then he stay down there his debt was born on a mexico which raises the
interesting question one how could how could is dead run for president will
barely
is different standards if you're a white guy did a terrible act i
but nobody when when when they're on the senior was running or george romney city
when george romney was running for president as states
he was born in mexico
nobody to raise the issue
his order
that should tell you something
benny have met wasn't born in mexico as dad wasn't so he's making this joke
about how and intrusive
if my dad just stayed mexico i could've been born down there and i can call
myself a latino
and i get a lot more hearts
d_m_ net
that's a good
kara in tulsa mexico was naked k_g_o_t_v_ a coral it's on your mind
and i've been thinking at mit romney has been consistent in one thing getting
taken by his way into everything
in early well he has all his life
now you don't want to know that particular surrounding the white
hispanic now you know i i really crappy apartment daga boundary pixar
let me correct they own and all that the you know to foreclosure to happen
quickly and then this is the big day the palestinian don't want anything they're
basically homeless worthless people who do not have occurred yuka therefore they
cannot better than self
however don't bother with the palestinian right any improper point
seven point one of the american campaign category right yet this is the guy who
wants to be president of all of us and who wants to sit in the chair that jimmy
carter who diem near-abroad
peace to the middle east
i mean he was within
throwing distance of it and had he got a second term and dad ronald reagan's
campaign manager bill casey not cut that deal with the iranians to all the
hostages until the minute the minute the ronald reagan put his hand on the bible
that was that literally that men it was the minute that they release the houses
at bill casey not cut that deal with the iranians jimmy carter would've gotten a
second term in i'd believe
we would have seen a complete peace between the the palestinians and
israelis and and three quarters of the the disturbances that we're seeing
in the muslim world anyway right now would not be happening
but yeah very very well said corra thank you very much thanks for the call tony
in stafford virginia a tony thanks listed series except what's out there
it's about the taxes
always was on the impression that all employers have to withhold income tax
from your
uh... a don't mel none of my idea i'd
that accidental they were right on it so i don't know i don't think any my
employees makes a little the
we would normally do in a court of appeals style
i know everybody has to withhold you know you have to withhold the the
payroll taxes
but look at waitress great-great amber gardner
public two thirty in our right
thereafter report
how much they made in peds
and a lot of time after walking out of here at the end of week with general
thirty million up by tax
and also about being compared
regard
the standard deduction
bug adjusted for inflation
wages are stagnant
more people are gonna not be painting company well the fact of the matter is
that if you go back to the clinton years it was about thirty four thirty five
percent of americans were earnings so little
or were on social security keep in mind that's about half of them about half of
our own so scary
and about half of his about fifteen percent worrying so little it they
didn't pay federal income taxes and that what that
that thirty you know in the thirties
percent stood right up until the bush recession
and then when the economy sir to find two thousand seven and when i really
wanted free fall in two thousand eight
that's when you saw those numbers cross the forty percent threshold and we're
now forty seven percent because we're in the middle of the great depression the
bush great depression
i mean you know it's called what it is
and then and as soon as uh... america gets back to work and i frankly think
that's going to happen in the next four or five years
i think we may have another big clunker
earth pompey before them will see that it whether we do or not ice still think
that deal with the within six or seven years from now we will be back on our
feet solidly and growing and when we are you going to see that number back down
around thirty percent and if we raise the minimum wage up to ten eleven twelve
thirteen dollars an hour you see that number dropped out of fifteen or twenty
percent and it would just be people who are old enough that their income a
social security and they make a little enough on it that the not paying taxes
on it
