@ofctimallen let's ask our president. You know, since he's a genius. #Not

No, we’d rather hear what the common folk on Twitter have to say.
@ofctimallen by eliminating that burden from the people who don't have money?

@ofctimallen only way I see it is relieving some tax duties of middle class. Still doesn’t fix it tho.

@ofctimallen Well, the money can be used to provide helpful services to folks with lower incomes — school lunches, daycare, education.

True, but that wasn’t the question. It wasn’t about social programs, but rather the success of the middle class.
@ofctimallen it doesn't…the high income people are the ones controlling the middle classes jobs.

@ofctimallen I don't get it either. I think we all should all pay the same amount.

@ofctimallen You can't build someone up by tearing someone else down.

@ofctimallen it doesn't. In fact, High income people tend to cut costs and fire people when this happens!

@ofctimallen How about instead of taxing the wealthy more we tax everyone the same? No loopholes, no dodges, no shelters. Pay what you owe?
