To those in support of this so-called tea party movement I have one question. Where were all you folks when the previous administration of modern day robber barons were running this country over the cliff and dooming the future of your children?

Re: This is getting embarrassing. Typical lies and fear-mongering by the just say no crowd. I am against taxes in general but not because I don't think they are necessary for a functional society. The problem is they get wasted on BS such as military adventures premised on lies and the wishes of the corporate and government robber barons. This is where the real outrage should be focused people! More tax is always a bitter pill because who knows where it really goes? But one thing is certain under our current tax laws...the poor pay an unfair share of the taxes and this has always been the case. A new tax may not be good for anyone, but if there is going to be one, a more equitable distribution of the tax burden is the right thing to do. Use your brain. Educate yourself.
