According to S&L THEN a majority of Americans support Marxism. LMFAO
At a time when protests have erupted across the country over a growing inequality of wealth and Congress is considering measures to impose a surtax on those earning more than $1 million annually, the public seems to be in a populist mood—one that’s tempered by skepticism about Washington’s ability to do anything about the grim economy.
A new survey shows that Americans overwhelmingly support the self-styled Occupy Wall Street protests that not only have disrupted life in Lower Manhattan but also in Washington and cities and towns across the U.S. and in other nations. Some 59 percent of adults either completely agree or mostly agree with the protesters, while 31 percent mostly disagree or completely disagree; 10 percent of those surveyed didn’t know or refused to answer.
Let's just do this one more time. That 47 percent figure applies only to federal income taxes. The ones not paying are the poor, the elderly who have, you know, very little income, and those who qualify for child tax credits. These people still pay state taxes. They still pay payroll taxes. They pay federal excise taxes, they pay local taxes. And, in fact, "low- and moderate-income people pay a much larger share of their incomes in federal payroll taxes than high-income people do."
[T]axpayers in the bottom 20 percent of the income scale paid an average of 8.8 percent of their incomes in payroll taxes in 2007, compared to just 1.6 percent for taxpayers in the top 1 percent of the income distribution.[...]
Low-income families also pay substantial state and local taxes. Most state and local taxes are regressive, meaning that low-income families pay a larger share of their incomes in these taxes than wealthier households do. The bottom fifth of taxpayers paid 12.3 percent of their incomes in state and local taxes in 2010, according to the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP) model. That was well above the 7.9 percent average rate that the top 1 percent of households paid.
Lloyd, it's true. Many of the protestors are. Why must you always argue? Stern had a kid on tape. Google it.
Enough with the snarky comments LOL.
So you leave me guessing if you agree with some of the OWS protesters endorsing Marxism..... Your answer is that you belong to a certain political party???? Make it easy on everybody - either you agree, or disagree.... Do you endorse Marxism as a socioeconomical system to provide equality amongst the people?
I guess this will go unanswered and understandably so. Who wants to step in America and endorse socialism, communism or marxism. The choice is to veil this truth and simply call it liberalism. But at the end of the day, the same thing is achieved. More government control of all aspects or our lives.
Here's a link for you.
