[QUOTE]Originally posted by glassman: [QB] [b]All that happened is the same guys that played poker and lost, got their losses covered by the middle class.[/b] OK, here's my argument against that. [i]the top 1% pay 36.9% of federal tax (wealth 32.7%), the top 5% pay 57.1% (wealth 57.2%), top 10% pay 68% (wealth 69.8%), and the bottom 50% pay 3.3% (wealth 2.8%). [/i] it's the same argument some people use to complain about the "poor" not payng taxes and getting subsidies... the wealthy pay most of the taxes, and them getting bailed out is what they pay for. as for this idea that "they" are waiting for stability? that's hokus pokus... there si no such thing as stability or security, and what they are waiting for is for cosnumers to get relaoded so they can go shopping again.. only that's not gonna happen anytime soon because they just don't have the moeny. they borrowed against their homes and lost, they are out of work, and thier paychecks don't go up on average when they do work. get used to this. it's not changing any time soon....
