LET'S FIND OUT JUST WHO IS FILTHY RICH

Kill the rich and we'll solve our problems FOR ONE YEAR. Census figure show that 1,438,000 earned more than $250,000. So let's assume the 1,438,000 made a million (stretching to make a point). That comes to $1.4 trillion. Take it all and leave the fuckers for dead. Now what?

Consider that total tax revenues for local and state governments are almost two TRILLION dollars per year LINK to census data. Here are their sources of revenue and get ready to puke. Add three zeros to the below figures.

Property 63,689,177
Sales and gross receipts 320,216,988
General sales 223,428,227
Selective sales 96,788,761
Motor fuel 32,045,388
Alcoholic beverage 4,521,794
Tobacco products 8,833,438
Public utilities 18,359,820
Other selective sales 33,028,321
Individual income 226,333,547
Corporate income 35,296,152
Motor vehicle license 16,447,346
Other taxes 52,135,406
Now that is just state and local taxes. Federal taxes are another two TRILLION. This means we are going to have to dip down from the $250,000 category and wipe out everybody at the $100,000 level too. Our TOTAL taxes are near the 65% category right now. Soak the rich sounds great til somebody decides YOU are the rich. Trust the Democrats to do just that.
