Butler County's great daily newspaper

Google it. You'll find 50 news reports. GE, Exxon Mobile, Verizon, Honeywell, Boeing, Bank of America, Citibank, to name a few.. and the list goes on and on.

I don't remember saying you don't pay taxes. I'm saying if you make 106 billion, you pay the exact same amount of social security tax as someone who makes 106,800 because the rate is capped, which makes absolutely no sense at all.

If you call your income capital gains, you pay only 17% on it, instead of 24%.

If you own a lot of property, be like Mark Rockefeller or Michelle Bachman, just sign up for farm subsidies - whether or not you have ever or would ever farm. Get paid just to own property that you don't have to pay any taxes on. What a deal.

If pointing out these suspicious discrepancies means class warfare, then I guess that's what it is.
