Lost Cleric of Norrath Twice a day even a broken clock is right.
The "faix" tax means......
Bill Gates pays $3.00 for a bottled water ($1.00 + $2.00 tax) of 1/6000ths of his hourly income. (1)
The single mom with a "deadbeat" baby's daddy making $9.00 an hour has to spend 1/3rd of her hourly wage to buy the same bottle of water.That is a regressive tax structure, the less you make the more you are impacted by the tax burden.What is exactly fair about that?Back on the main topic and off the margins....Here are some words NOT in the pledge: (1)Wall Street: 0Bank: 0Finance: 0Mortgage crisis: 0Derivative: 0Subprime: 0Lobbying: 0Lobbyist: 0K Street: 0Campaign finance: 0Campaign contribution: 0Campaign donation: 0Disclosure: 0Climate change: 0Environment: 1 ("political environment")Alternative energy: 0Renewable: 0Green: 0Transportation: 0Infrastructure: 0Poverty: 0Food: 0Food safety: 0Housing: 0Internet: 0Education: 0College: 0Reading: 0Science: 0Research: 0So they plan to pledge NOTHING about those things.
