Taxes lowest
since 1950
But the Teabaggers want a WHITE House
Excerpt:
Amid complaints about high taxes and calls for
a smaller government, Americans paid their
lowest level of taxes last year since Harry Truman's
presidency, says USA TODAY.
Teabaggers have criticized federal spending as
being out of control.
While spending is up, taxes have fallen to exceptionally
low levels.
Federal, state and local taxes - including income,
property, sales and other taxes - consumed 9.2% of all
personal income in 2009, the lowest rate since
1950, the Bureau of Economic Analysis reports. That rate is
far below the historic average of 12% for the
last half-century. The overall tax burden hit bottom in December
at 8.8.% of income before rising slightly in
the first three months of 2010.
I think the teabagger movement is all smoke and
no substance.
Yes, Bennett lost in Utah - because the insane
teabaggers run the Utah primary.
The TBs are also getting a boost from the fact
that they have no leader.
There's nobody to go on Meet the Whore and take
questions.
If we could pin one of them doen and ask, "What
exactly do you want "back?"
they'd have no reply and that would make them
look stupid-er.
The TBs stand for racism - they hate that
you-know-what in the White House
and they don't care if they're better
off - they want that nigger gone.
