Two distinct classes in the “Fundamentally Transformed *america”


This one writes itself:

Income tax day, April 15, 2010, now divides Americans into two almost equal classes: those who pay for the services provided by government and the freeloaders. The percentage of Americans who will pay no federal income taxes at all for 2009 has risen to 47 percent.

The bottom 40 percent not only pay no income tax, but the government sends them cash or benefits financed by the taxes dutifully paid by those who do pay income tax.

The top 10 percent pay 73 percent of the income taxes collected by the federal government.

“We are going to fundamentally transform America.” Barack Obama, 03NOV08
