The Rich Teabagging The Poor



How many people in the image above, which was taken at a recent "tea bag" tax protest rally, do you think even hit the 39% tax bracket? I'm guessing probably none. The sad thing about this tea bag protest movement is that it's the rich manipulating the poor and under-educated, getting them to do their dirty work, while those fortunate enough to be included in the 39% club sit back and watch from the luxury of their penthouses and McMansions.

well i think it happens the same thing in every single country, the clever and richier ones always find their way to manipulate the world around *even though i would say there are exceptions*
i definetely dont know much about the taxes in the us, but in my country you have to declare taxes when you are above a certain ammount of money as a payment per month *im not sure if i explained it well =/*
Have a beautifull weekend smile

McMansions are, by definition, not for the very rich (39% tax bracket folk). They're for the middle class to feel like they're rich, that's the point of the name. Its applying the same cookie cutter, assembly-line quality that McDonalds does to food to housing.

Sorry, not trying to be sanctimonious, just happen to work in urban (and occasionally, suburban) redevelopment.

Other than that I agree with you, there's a reason Fox News is pushing this so hard.
