60% !!! I knew it was a lot, but I feel this needs to be repeatedly framed everytime its mentioned that certain members of congress refuse to raise taxes for the wealthy,it needs to be pointed out that they are simply refusing to raise taxes for THEMSELVES.....Now they are talking about letting the payroll tax expire that will raise taxes for the middle class AND business which economic experts agree will most assurredly put us into a recession by further reducing discreationary income of the middle class. We should be about at the point of revolt. 60 % agreeing not to increase the tax on themselves,the 1% weathiest in our country,who bush saw fit to give a tax cut to,no they want the middle class to have THEIR TAXES RAISED. I was hoping this not be moved to politics section. The wealthy are disproportionately represented in our congress to the detriment of the middle class.
Guess what percentage of Congress is Millionaires
