Thom Hartmann: You're right, Rick - the smart people will never be on your side...

2. Excellent. One of his best rants yet.

To claim workers, whose wages remained stagnant while CEO salaries grew to as much as 500% of average workers, are not paying 'income taxes' and then turn around and complain that these "job profiteers" have to pay taxes on their increased income demonstrates selfishness becoming an art form. What twisted logic.

I wonder if it were put to them before wage increases that in order to have an increase you must decide to pay higher taxes...or pay no taxes but have your wages stagnate or decrease by 20%...what the decision would be, ha.

Republicans now would have us work for $5/day and still complain that it's unfair that we do not pay income taxes.

Romney/Lyin Ryan (neither are too bright) really don't believe in democracy...they believe in an Oligarchy of a totalitarian nature.

Their royalty fantasy brain believes that if you don't vote for THEM...then something must be wrong with YOU. Not that you just disagree but that something must be wrong with YOU.
