TAXES. Everyone makes noise about what so an so pays but . You can pay more if you choose. Who would?

Here in Massachusetts you can pay the ATM the alternative min tax. Ms. Warren also a millionaire in her own right paid what she owed, not choosing to pay more, She could have done so. AS could every member of congress etc, My point is regardless or not they are fair, the laws are what they are, The Romney's Buffets etc have stilled paid millions more in taxes than we will ever see in our lives, Nobody wants to pay more As of 2011 47% of Congress are Millionaires do you really think they are going to vote themselves a tax hike.

    You can't run this country without taxes.

    But we all should pay a fair share of taxes. The rich shouldn't be getting all these breaks.

    It isn't the tax rate, it is the loopholes that causes people to escape taxes and nobody is talking about that. That is why there will never be a flat tax.
