How is it that in their drive to "spread the wealth around" that plutocrat Democrats still retain their wealth? Warren Buffett's Berkshire-Hathaway may owe the Feds up to $1 Billion in back taxes. If Buffett believes that he should pay more taxes, then he should write a check for what he owes already. There are numerous examples of wealthy Democrats dodging taxes. John Kerry docked his boat outside of Massachusetts to avoid state taxes. Bill Clinton loves to say that he makes a lot of money, yet his deductions keeps him from paying more. The Clinton' are famous for writing off their used underwear and other clothing.

Here's a suggestion--which will be strongly opposed by the vote-buying Democrats--suspend the voting rights of anyone receiving public assistance until they no longer need such assistance.
The ones hit hardest will be small businesses. They will be kept from growing and the old line corporations will be safe from competition. Coupled with the indolent, parasitic 47%ers, once again those of us in the middle will be repeatedly raped financially by this gang of thieves.
